Army and Civilian Defense.
DR.. Thomas H. Alphin, Chem
ical Warfare Consultant of the
Civil Defense Administration,
says, Because of the speed and
simplicity of the Ace injector it
should make possible the sur
vival of thousands who would
otherwise succumb."
Civilian Defense officials are
still puzzling over the best means
of getting gas masks and afro
pine injectors into private homes.
Should they be given away free?
Most authorities think not. In
England during World War II
gas masks that were a gift from
the government were very fire.
quently abused punched full
of holes, misplaced and given to
children to play with.
stu a Threat
ONE suggestion being given seri-
GUS consideration is to produce
the equipment under government
subsidy and offer it for sale at a
price that will insure its being
treated with respect yet low
enough to bring it within reach
of everyone.
The announcement that there
is a workable antidote for nerve
gas and that we are being offered
a nearly foolproof means of ad-
ministering it does not, of course,
mean that the threat of gas war
fare is over. Our government
does feel, hOsCerer, that the
more sre knOir about nerve
gas, the less likely it is to be
used against us. When and if
it comes, Tlerre gas should no
longer be able to 0chiere its
major objective - the creG-
ton of mass panic and the
end Of the sCiN to resist.
AS Colonel Norman w. Elton,
Chief of the Medical Laborato-
ries, us. Army Chemical Center
in Maryland, remarked, I'VE
must pray God that nerve gas
may never be used and thank
God that we have an antidote

The Ace. They submitted sew
eral hand-assembled specimens
to the Army and were asked to
supply 1000 for immediate test
ing. The Army asked DR.. Archer
S. Gordon of the University of
Illinois College of Medicine
and a group from the National
Opinion Center at the Univer-
sity of Chicago to observe and
report.
The Test
AT THE Army's Medical Re
placement Training Center at
Camp Pickett, Va, 000recIuits
assisted in the test. Each man
received a lecture and a demon
stration on the use of both the
Ace and the Ampin as well as a
set of detailed drawings and
written instructions. One group
injected themselves once with
each unit in the privacy of a
small, well-lighted room. Another
group was asked to perform in
pitch-black darkness. A third
group took the test under simu-
lated battle conditions. They
punched the needles home
through denim fatigues and un-
derclothing as they might do
during combat.
Still another was asked to test
both injectors using only one
hand - the other being tied be-
hind the individuals back!
The result, in the opinion of
the 1000 men who took the
tests, was an overwhelming re-
port in favor of the fully auto
matte injector. Ninety per cent
of the testees voted it the hypo-
dermic they would want to have
in a raid.

Beta Sigs Celebrate 22nd Anniversary

Over 50 Beta Sigma Phi mem- bers, husbands, escorts and guests celebrated the sorority's 22nd an- niversary at lovely banquet last Thursday at the Boring Sea Club.
 The opening ritual was recited and grace given before the turkey dinner was served. Yellow roses, official Beta Sig flower, and yell low and white tulips decorated the tables as well as tall white tapers.
 After the main course the pro- gram continued. Ruth Mclean gave resume of the years activ- ities and Betty Alexander read a message from Walter w. Ross, our founder. Carol Jones led the girls in a renewal of theira VOWS as members of the sorority, and May belle Lenert sang the prize-win- ming Beta Sigma Phil song of the year, "A Dream Come True," by Dorothy Staley of Tennessee xxi Kappa, Nashville.
 With the repeating of the clos ing ritual and the mizpah, the program ended. Dancing followed to the music of an accordianist who played not only present-day selections but many Strauss waltz es and folk dances.

'sSkeds" Urge CAB Tighten Controls
 Over "Non-Skeds''

WASHINGTON, R-Major US. airlines contended to Congress Friday that "non-scheduled" air. lines ''desire to operate only over the lush routes," fail to serve the public at large and are causing substantial damage" to the reg ular airlines.
 They ask frightened government controls over the ''non-Skeds" - airlines which carry no perman- ent certification from the Civil Aeronautics Board but operate under either temporary certifica- ton or exemptions.
 There has been a running fight between the "skeds'' and the mon skeds" for several years. The CAB is now in the midst of a full-scale investigation of the whole ques- ton.
 A Senate Small Business sub committee also is looking into it., and top officials of Capital Air lines, Transworld, Eastern and Northwest were. before the Sen ators to complain that i've have been hurt and we stand to be hurt very much more" by the non-skeds.
 George E. Hatch, Northwest Orient Airlines western region sales manager, testified that scheduled air carriers are provid- ing ample Service between Alaska and the US. at reasonable rates and without mail subsidy
 Hitting at the irregular carriers claim they are being prevented from doing business on the Seat tie Anchorage run, Hatch said there are companies authorized by the CAB to fly to Alaska who do not choose to do so for reasons of their own.
 Hatch contended the non-sched- uled carriers have followed a practice of holding fares just under regular scheduled fares and of providing service only during profitable periods of operation.

Woman Embezzler Who
 Took $380,OO0 Sentenced To $5,OOO and Five Years

BALTIMORE, R-Mrs. Naomi Hartman Ringrose, who lived ex- pensively off other peoples money. awaits transfer to fed eral prison where she will spend the next five years.
 The sentence and a $5,OOO fine were imposed Friday by Judge w. Calvin Chesnut after the 45-year- old mother admitted embedding funds from the Federal Credit Union which she managed.
 It all started, said Mrs. Ring rose, in 1945 when she got away with $60 bookkeeping error. Since then, the government con- tended, shortages on her books grew to $38O,OOO.
 The Credit Union is operated for employees of the Social Secur- ity Administration, and it's funds come from money they invest to make loans to other employees.
 Mrs. Ringrose, whose salary was $200 a month, admitted var iously owning a Cadillac, $4OO suits, $96 hats and a $2,000 mink cape bought "when minks were low" But she denied having lived lavishly off the money.
 She operated dining room, a beauty parlor and an insurance agency on the side. But the Credit Union has taken those over along with her fashionable $80,000 home and 17-year-old son.
