ON MILITARY PAY

There are growing indications that economies made at the expense of pay and fringe benefits to about in view of the fact that reenlisments in the armed services have dropped off considerably and be- cause resgnations at the service academies are becoming more frequent.
 Military officials argue that morale in the services has suffered result of the recent economy wave and termination of some pay and fringe benefits Among the economies in recent years has been an end to spe cial bonus pay, end to some housing allowances, curtaiment of post exchange services and end to medical benefits for some military dependents.
 As result of this stuation the House Armed Services Committee is beginning study of the ade- quacy of military pay Because the pay scale vised only few years ago, general revision of the scale IS anticipated, any blanket increase for bers of the armed services However, information gain ed in the study of the House committee may be used to block any proposed new economies and possibly to restore some of the fringe benefits ended in recent months and years

ORDERED HASTE WILL SAVE YOU :"

Mayors and city managers of 175 US. cities met in Washington at the invitation of President Eisen- hover, for two-day briefing Civil Defense Greeted by the President, they told Ordered haste will save you, and panic will destroy you" It was the element of surprise, said the President that made Pearl Harbor disaster. Had everybody been ready and waiting, he said the attack could not have been launched"
 In subsequent secret sessions the mayors heard a report from Vice President xon on the day of his return from his round -the-world tour Other ranking officials discussed atomic weapons and the internaon- al situation
 What each of these leaders now thinks about Civil Defense will doubt be revealed his own citizens before long But it's good thing the "briefing did not include afraid drill in Washington where, thusfar but federal employees has participated.

 The subcommittee chairman said the situation under study goes back over the period since World War II. He added that serious efforts have been made to inn prove conditions since early last year, when the Republicans took over the national administration.
 Mccarthy said the subcommit- tee will start closed hearings this week into the Alaska situation, based on reports submitted by a subcommittee auditor and an in vestigator who have been in Al aSka for two months.
 A mining project and another dealing with housing are among those to be studied, he said, but he declined to answer other queS- tions as to whether the projects also would include pipelines, road building and military construction.
 Secretary of the Interior Mckay issued statement commenting on Sen. McCarthy's report on the Alaska investigation, saying:
 "The Department of the Inter for has been cooperating for sev- eral months with Sen. Mccarthy in his investigation of conditions in Alaska.
 An investigator was assigned by the department to the territory several months ago. He has worked along with Sen. McCar- thy's staff in Alaska and we have kept in close touch with the mat ter in each successive develop ment
 We believe the investigation has been a constructive step for ward and will result in cleaning up a bad set of circumstances that have been allowed to drift with out official action on them or ac- ton to eradicate them"

 A Canadian prospector used a set of this steel all summer with out any real sharpening problem. His set was composed of four pieces: 14", 22", 29", and 36" in length. The IA" starter was fitted with tungsten-carbide inserts of IA" gauge and the three longer pieces were of 1-1/16"gauge. T.

 Usually when reports of oil seeps are encountered, it develops that the person saw an irridescent film on some water which resem- bled an oil film, but which was merely the result of deteriorating vegetable matter.
 A simple means of distinguish ing between this vegetable film and that of a mineral oil is to dis turb it with a foot or a stick. Upon being disturbed, if it breaks up into patches which remain separ- ated, it is the former worthless substance If the film remains constant and evenly distributed over the waters surface, it is likely to be genuine oil.

DEVELOPING CREEPING alfalfas.
Creeping rooted alfalfa strains are
being developed at Swift Current.
Saskatchewan, from crossing creeping
rooted plants of Siberian strain with
plants of the Ladak variety. The Ca
madam Department of Agriculture re-
ports that single plants of the type on
test may show spread of from to S
feet in years.
SUB-IRRIGATING with perforated
plastic pipe buried under ground. In
test used on tomatoes in Texas line
of pipe 900 feet long was placed to 6
inches under ground and the tomatoes
were planted in a continuous row over
the line. The pipe was 11-inch tubing
apart. Best results were obtained
when holes were turned to side and
bottom of pipe. This gave saturation
to distance of 21h feet to each side of
pipe. Only labor required for irriga-
ton was turning valves on and off.
TESTING POTATOES for storage
quality. The North Dakota Experiment
Station has developed three machines
to be used in its potato breeding pro-
gram. One is a pressure machine to
determine safe storage depth; another
is an abrasion machine which shows
how easily potatoes will skin, and an
impact machine indicates the distance
potatoes may be dropped without dam
age.

DECLARING BACTERIAL warfare
on insects. Entomologists are making
hopeful progress in the use of insect
diseases to control insects. The prac-
tice would have several advantages
over the use of chemicals in that dis
eases could be more highly selective,
affecting only the undesirable insect,
and most diseases that are lethal to
insects are harmless to man and ami
mails. Milky disease of Japanese
beetles, developed by the USDA, is
now on the market. The bacteria have
been busted over millions of acres to
destroy the grubs and halt develop
ment of adults. A virus has been used
successfully for several years to con-
troll alfalfa caterpillars in California.

Jews Amend Law
Covering Marriage
To Check e: |. Divorces
BY the Assoeioted Pres.

NEW YORK, Nov. ia his
toric modification of Jewish
marriage law-the first in nearly
1000 years-was made public
today. It's purpose is to halt
hasty or frivolous divorces.
Largely. it calls for a new
marriage contract provision
which specifies that. in the case
of matrimonial difficulties which
might lead to divorce, there
must be a conciliation effort.
This effort would be under
taken by a court of five distin-
guished rabbis, known as a
Beth Din"
Penalties Are Possible.
In the event that husband or
wife fails to carry out terms of
the contract. or a decision of the
conciliation court, certain penal
ties may be invoked.
The change in the law was
said to be the first major innova-
ton since an 18th, Century rul-
ing forbidding plural marriages,
which, up to that time, had been
theoretically possible.
It was adopted in a resolution
of the Rabbinical Assembly of
America, an association of more
than 500 rabbis representing
some 2 million American Jews of
the conservative Jewish faith.
Eventually. it is hoped, all
branches Of Jewish faith
throughout the world will adopt
the new practice.
"We think of divorce as a spe-
cial tragedy" explained DR..
Louis Fnkelstein, chancellor of
the Jewish Theological Semi
nary, at a news conference in
which the change was disclosed.
He said traditional Judaism
always had sought to prevent
hasty breakup of marriages by a
document protecting the rights
Of both parties, particularly the
wife's.
Divorces Too Hasty.
But" DR.. Finkelstein said,
I'VE still think divorces are too
hasty and that the breakup of
homes could be prevented If we
had an opportunity to intervene
in time
The change In law was de-
signed to provide such an OPP
portunity, he added. and to inn
press marrying couples that
theirs is "a very serious enter
prise which cannot be dissolved
by bad temper or rotten coffee" !"
DR.. Finkelstein said it was be-
lieyed that courts of law would
uphold the church in its effort
TO enforce the marriage contract
provisions, or penalties which
might be imposed for failure to
comply.

P. r. Priester. manager of the
mines supply company, said it
could not be determined imme-
diately what caused the explo-
sion or where it originated.
The maintenance men were
scattered out as much as quar-
ter Of a mile apart for their
maintenance work. most of them
about SIS feet from the surface.
One employe said some or all Of
them might have escaped be-
cause of this.
Crews Encounter Deadly Gas.
The first two rescue crews to
enter the blasted workings
emerged with word that they had
encountered carbon monoxide, a
deadly gas.
Other crews, consisting of sew
en- or eight men each, replaced
the force which came to the sur
face.
Emergency fans were pressed
into service to ventilate the mine
on the dimming hope that the
entombed men might still be
alive.
Ed Capet, assistant superin-
tendent of the mine, said it was
rock busted by the maintenance
crews this morning. This is one
OF their main jobs since the pow
dered coal which collects in a
mine explodes with force many
times greater than dynamite.
The explosion occurred about
