Rocket Scientists; # Feel.
Saucers Are Illusions
BY the Assoeiosed pres.

STUTTGART. Germany. Sept.
5.-A group Of scientists who seri-
ously expect man some day to
rocket to Mars say that flying
Isaucers may be nothing but optical
Ior atmospheric illusions. And
they are not space ships from an
other planet.
The 200 scientists from IL coun-
tries gathered here for the third
International Astronomical Con-
|gresS agreed almost unanimously
that the "Saucers" aren't men from
Mars or any other body out in
space. -.
The experts also said they did
not believe the reported flying
discs were a new weapon-but they
did not rule out that possibility
completely.
Most of the scientists at the
congress said, however, they felt
the illusion theory probably was
correct.
They also agreed 1t would take
man many more years Of research
before he can fly rockets into outer
space. But they firmly believe
travel between the planets will be
poSsible-Someday.

Gen. Ibanez Far Ahead
In Chilean Vote, Blow
TO Communists Seen
By the Assoeiosed Press

SANTIAGO, Chile. Sept. S.
Former Dictator Carlos Ibane7
del Campo came out far ahead
today in Chile's presidential elec.
|tion-but with the vote count
nearly complete, the 75-year-olc
strong man fell just short of the
so per cent plus one vote required
to seat him.
The latest of1icial tally gave
Gen. 'Ibanez-a close friend OF
Argentine President Juan D. Peror
|-46.7 per cent of the popular
vote with only 5000 ballots still
out. 1t was generally agreed
however. that Congress would
acknowledge his big lead over
the three other candidates and
put him into Office when it meets
October "a.
The legislative branch chooses
between the two highest candi-
dates when none captures a
majority.
Gen. Ibanez' victory was viewed
as a disastrous blow to the Com
munists since he scored heavily
in the mining districts, long a
Red stronghold. The Red swung
only one-half of the 100000 votes
they had expected for their candi-
date.
Others Far Behind.
Official returns issued by the
Ministry Of the Interior showed
Gen. Ibanez had won 432 ,92O out
of the 921. .430 votes counted.
Trailing far behind were:
Arturo Matte Larrain, the
choice Of the Liberal and Con-
servative Parties, 252.648.
Pedro Enrique Alfonso, Radical.
183.87S.
Salvador Allende, left wing and
Communists, 81, 1884.
If Congress votes him in, Gen.
Ibanez will take over from Presi-
dent Gabriel Gonzalez Videla on
November 3, ending a 14-year
regime of the Radical Party.
Early this morning Radical
Candidate Alfonso acknowledged
in a note to Gen. Ibanez that he
had won IAN indisputable demo-
cratic victory"
Square-jawed Gen. Ibanez, an
ultra-nationalist who has limited
at ultimate state ownership of
Chile's vital copper and coal in
dustries, campaigned by appealing
to popular discomfort at infla-
ton and frequent strikes. He was
dictator Of Chile from 1927 to
1881.
The total vote in yesterdays
election represented 1876 per cent
of Chile's electorate, a record.
A total of only 1883 ballots were
declared invalid. WomeN voted
for the first time, swinging behind
the winner. The Agrarian Party
and important factions of the
democratic and socialist groups
also supported him.
Gen. Ibanez' victory possibly was
a fatal defeat for the Conserva-
tives and Liberals, whose 100-year
tenure ended in 1888 when the
Radicals took over.

Virginio's New Poll Tax RuIinq
us Unfamiliar to Many Voters

to ask for the information. Until
the reply comes. Fairfax will fol-
low the old policy.
+ To vote in Virginia, q person
must have lived in the State for
one year. the city or county for
six months and the precinct for
80 days prior to the election. He
also must have paid his poll tax
for the previous three years.
This year, however, the General
Assembly passed a bill by State
Senator Charles r. Fenwick of
Arlington which excuses voters
from the first years tax when
they move into the State after
the first Of the year.
The new law did not take effect
until June % and the attorney
general had indicated earlier that
it could not apply until 1853. On
June 80, however, he said the law
is effective this year.
Since the 1852 poll tax Is not
due until December the situation
is this: Those moving into the
State on or after January 2, 1851,
and before November 4, 1851, need
not pay a poll tax, providing they
were not billed for 1t.
Those moving into Virginia on
January 2, 1850, or later, need
show that they have paid only
the 1851 tax, unless they got bills
for the 1850 tax.
And those going into the State
on or after January 2, 1949 need
show only the 1850 and 1851 pay
ments unless they were billed in
1949.
State Officials Criticized.
Senator Fenwick criticized the
failure Of State officials to notify
all registration and election off,
cials at once Of Mr.. Almonds
opinion. He said he had asked Mr..
Davis to get out notices imme-
diately.
Mr.. Davis told The Star that
no notices had been sent out, and
only those who had asked for an
opinion had been told about it.
"This situation only came to q
head in the last few weeks" Mr..
Davis said. "I expect to get out
a bulletin 70 everybody in the next
few days."
Registration books will close

ton. .....

heGraneIy Charges
Mccarthy Distorted
Justice Brief on Reds
BY the Asseeioied Press

Attorney General McGranery
last night challenged quotation
read by Senator Mccarthy, Re-
public. of Wisconsin, from JUS
tice Department document in an
effort to support Senator McCar-
thy's contention that the State
Department harbors Communists.
In a formal reply. Mr.. McGran-
cry said in effect that Senator Nc
Carthy had lifted the quotation
out Of context so that its meaning
was distorted.
Senator Mccarthy said in q
speech at Milwaukee that a JUS
tice Department brief made refer
ence to Soviet plans for obtaining
blank American passports from
Communists employed in the State
Department"
Mr.. McGranery said there had
been testimony that Russian Sc
cret police in 1923 worked on a
plan to have Communists en-
ployed in the State Department so
it would be easier to obtain illegal
passports. But there has been no
testimony that the plan was put
into effect, he said, and so the
sentence did not mean there were
Reds in the State Department.
Paragraph Quoted.
The prepared text of Senator
McCarthy's Milwaukee address
contained this paragraph:
There are those who say there
are no longer Communists in
Government. I am not going to
ask you to take my word for
that. I have in my hand the
brief prepared by seven lawyers
of the Justice Department dated
July %, 1852. Let me read to
you from it. Illegal passports
have been used to expedite travel
in foreign countries by members
of the Communist Party. Plans
have been discussed by leading
members Of the party and agents
of Soviet secret police to obtain
blank American passports from
Communists employed in the
State Department"
Mr.. McGranery's formal reply
said in part:
The brief to which the Sem
ator referred was the Govern
ment's proposed findings Of fact
submitted to the Subversive
Activities Control Board in the
case against the Communist
Party. The department is press.
ing proceedings before the board
in an effort to force the party
to register as foreign-controlled
organization.
The proposed findings to
which the Senator referred were
based on testimony of witnesses
which appeared before the board.
His reference to plans discusse0
to obtain blank American pass
ports from Communists employed
m the State Department does not
mean that there were Commu-
nists employed in the State De-
partment."
Mr.. McGranery then said Paul
Crouch, an acknowledged former
Communist, had testified that in
1928 he was introduced to a man
identified as the head of the Rus
sian secret police in the United
States.
Mr.. McGranery said Crouch
testified in part:

cent of Virginia's 100000 voters
cast their ballot for President.
President Truman recently Ia
mented the fact that the national
average turnout that year was
only 81 per cent.
Virginia's voting record often
has led critics of the dominant
Democratic organization of Sena-
tor Byrd to charge that the vote
is deliberately kept low.
AS a matter of fact, Mr.. Al
mond's opinion on the poll tax
came to the public's attention last
week end through the announce
ment of a Republican-Joel r.
Broyhill. candidate for Congress

Let's Get Out the Vote
By Alex R. Preston

One reason Virginians do not
turn out at the polls in larger
numbers is because State election
officials seem to be Indifferent to
the problem.
A far-reaching opinion by State
Attorney General j. Lindsay Al
mond, (which permits many
thousands of new residents to vote
this year when they thought they
couldn't-was issued recently.
He says. in effect, that persons
who moved into Virginia after
January /. 1851 and before No
vember 4, 1851, may register and
vote this year even though they
have not paid the State poll tax,
providing they were not billed for
the tax.
But do the local election officials
and registrars know this?
Some do and some don't.
Following Earlier Ruling.
Take Arlington, for instance.
Up until yesterday the central
registrar. Mrs. Mary Thompson,
had TO- follow an earlier ruling of
the attorney general which ap-
parently precluded all persons who
failed to pay a poll tax from vot-
ing in this important election
year. >4
Yesterday, Mrs. Thompson be-
gan following the policy Of the at
torney generals later opinion.
The point is this: No one at
the State level told the Arlington
election officials about the newer
ruling which was made on June
80. They heard about it and had
to write to Richmond for a copy of
the opinion.
Alexandria, according to Fred
Petit. central registrar, still is re-
quiring poll tax payments of all
new registrants until it receives
notification requested from the
State. You can't blame MIR. Petit
for not changing his policy as soon
as he read about the attorney gen.
erals opinion in The Star last
Sunday. AS a public official, he
must be notified through official
channels.
