Jennings Begin
Mass Suicide Trek
Early This Year

POINT BARROW, Alaska R-
Hundreds Of thousands Of lem
mings, said to face a 'tStarve or
drown choice, are choosing drown
ing again in a mass migration
into the Arctic Oceans frigid
waters.
The migration started here early
this week and the little furry
footed rodents with the short tail
and odd teeth have been pouring
out from shore onto the sea ice
in continual stream since then.
There is no food on the ice
either-just death by cold or
drowning as they scamper off the
foes into the water. Some have
been observed as far as Is miles
from shore, still scampering over
the sea ice.
DR.. John Buckley, biologist for
the University of Alaska in Fair
banks, said science can't fully ex.
plain the periodic suicide migra.
tions of the jennings in the arctic.
But, he said, when they exhaust
their food, they haven't got much
choice. They either starve on land
or go out to sea ane drown"

ed by widespread postwar black
markets in money.
Baughman disclosed the story Of
the Spanish gangs operations and
capture, as reported by Hero
Martinez, in respaRse to a query
here.
The Treasury last January an.
flounced that international Police
were seeking the source Of several
false Export-Import Bank checks
which had turned up.
The joker was, and is, that the
Export-Tmport Bank, although 1t
makes u. S. Government loans
abroad, issues no loan checks of
It's own. The government bank es-
tablishes credits in u. S. and for
eign commercial banks when it
makes a loan, and these banks
issue loan checks.
Nevertheless, the false Export
Import Bank checks repeatedly
passed scrutiny in Swiss interna-
tional banking institution and in
New York banks, and were stopped
only when they were presented at
the Bank of Manhattan In New
ed to make 1t appear that they
had been issued by the Export
Import Bank against an account
In the Bank of Manhattan. Twelve
such checks were presented and
turned down. They came In from
Spain, Portugal, Switzerland. and
Germany. One check was traced TO
black market in LII Par. Bolivia,
where it was sent from Madrid for
passing.
Most of the supposed Ex.Im
checks were for $1,000 or 81 500,
but one was for SIG. 500 and an
other was for $40, 900. Losses were
borne by merchants and black
market dealers who accepted the
checks. giving merchandise or cash

US. Air Force
.OutgrOws The
Korean War
By ELTON c. FAY

WASHINGTON Rs-The Korean
War is getting too old.fashioned
for the U. S. Air Force. The en-.
emy is using antique airplanes
which radar won't detect and
which fly so slow and SO low that
superspeed jets can't cope with
them.
This, in substance, is the explain
alton at Air Force headquarters of
how the old Soviet-made PO2 BIZ
planes come drifting in at night

been made by the same type
planes. There have been remark
ably few interceptions.

Russians in 1927 as a training
plane, is a wood-and-fabric job.
Wood and fabric, an Air Force
spokesman explained today, is a
poor target for radar impulses. Ra-
dar sends out on impulse which
reflects against an object, prefer
ably metallic, then bounces back
to be picked up by receiver. The
character of the returned signal
together with the time required for
it to return, provides data for es-
timating the direction, distance
and speed of the object, as well as
indication of its nature.
But the radar warning network
doesn't work on the old cloth-and-
wood P02s. and there Is no elec.
tronic word Of the enemy's ap-
proach.
And when he gets in close,
new complication comes. Many
modern anti aircraft guns. They
won't operate on PO2s. The
best the ground defenders have
been able to do is put UP barrage
fire, hoping to knock down a plane
by filling the air with flax.
A po2 has a maximum speed of
about ITO miles an hour. A jet
fighter pulling down to that speed
to fire upon one of the old biplanes
would be close TO s'stalling out"
from loss Of adequate airspeed to
keep in the air.
The Air Force spokesman insist.
ed the situation wasn't serious,
that these were nuisance raids. II
it became serious, he said. meas.
ures would be taken to deal with
the P02s. But he didn't say, just
how.
1t is embarrassing enough to be
hit with museum-type aircraft. But
the ordnance used by the biplane
force Is even more humilating to
those who have been fighting fires
touching off by Tie raiders. Con.
yerted artillery shells and even
hand grenades. tossed from the
open cockpits, have been used in
some instances.

Bovine Mastitis

Perhaps coming years will bring
a "sure cure" for all types of bo-
vine mastitis, but that cure isn't
here yet, veterinary medical bull
letin declares. Penicillin, strepto-
mycin, and similar drugs have a
definite place in mastitis control
programs, but such drugs are use
full only against certain types of
germ caused mastitis. They are
powerless against noninfectious
cases, which are more common than
some farmers believe, the bulle-
tin states. Drugs used against non
infectious cases actually may do
more harm than good because they
often aggravate the injured udder.

MURRAY SAYS CONGRESS
HAS DELAYED PROGRESS

1t would cost an enemy tremend-
ously in men, planes and material
to do as much damage to American
productive capacity as has Congress,
Senator James E. Murray told the
Senate as it prepared to adjourn.
Libby and Yellowtail dams in
Montana, and Ice Harbor dam on
the Columbia River, have been
bombed out for at least another
year by Congress refusal to appro-
pirate modest sumes to get them
started, Senator Murray said.
The Dalles Dam on the Columbia
has been put out of commission for
at least a year by reduction in the
appropriation for its construction,
which engineers had warned would
add year to the time required to
get its generators going.
Going over the electric map of
the United State, Senator Murray
pointed out electric generating and
transmission facilities which had
been bombed out" by the Congress
in Southeast and Southwest and
other areas as we'll as the North
west. including Montana.
The facilities are greatly needed,
the Montana seator said, reading
from the report of the Presidents
Material Policy Commission, headed
by William S. Paley, head of the
Columbia Broadcasting Syste m.
The report showed that the Unit
ed States will need to increase cleo
trio generating capacity 5000 over
1850 to meet requirements in 1875
1t also finds that it will take all the
generating capacity which both the
government and private utilities
can install to meet these require
ments.
Another serious aspect of the
problem is that much of the power
must be low cost, or it may slow
down electro-process industries vital
to our defense
