Physical Culture Proponent Gets
Temporary Respite From Jail

NEW YORK R-Physical cultur-
:st Bernarr Macfadden has won a
temporary respite from a court
order that would have put him in
jail for failure to pay debts.
Any stay in Jail would very well
spell the ruinatiOn Of my physical.
mental and spiritual existence and
rlay very well cause my death, "
the 87-year-old Macfadden pleaded
yesterday before Supreme Court
Justice Benjamin J. Rabin.
Rabin held up enforcement of
the contempt of court order which
would have put Macfadden behind
bars on Friday. The order
stemmed from his failure to pay
his third wife, Jonnie Lee Mac
fadden, q 81, 500 in alimony and $5,-
COO in legal fees.
The justice called on Mrs. Mac
fadden, who recently won separa-
ton from the physical culturist, to
show Thursday why the amount
should not be cut down.
Macfadden, who said he once had
50 millions, claims he now has
only a $4,000 month annuity
which has to cover judgments and
back-tax payments, leaving him
barely $1oO-a-month for personal
needs. He thus could not comply
with the contempt of court order,
Macfadden said.

Fertilizer Can
Made From Air.
Scientist Says
By ALTON L. BLkkESL EE
AP Science Reporter

BERKELEY, Calf. R-Air can
be turned into fertilizer by magl-
cal little algae, raising the pros
pect of growing food crops without
soil, a scientist reports.
Algae are one-celled plants which
grow in water. One blue-green type
of algae now is found to have
great ability to take nitrogen out
of the air and make it available
for growing crops.
This is the main thing that fer
tilizers do-supply nitrogen for
growing crops.
The first success in growing rice
plants using nitrogen grabbed from
the air by the algae was described
to the American Assn. for the Ad-
vancement of Science by DR.. Dan
lei l. Arnon, department of plant
nutrition, University of California.
The finding offers cheap, eff
fective way of fertilizing varous
food crops. 1t could be of immense
significance, especially in the hum
CRY Orient.
DR.. Arnon added the blue.green
algae, named Anabaena cylindrica,
to rice plants, and found the rice
grew without needing nitrogen
from the soil. They got it all from
the air through the algae.
It's long been known that GER
tain algae can take or "fix" nj
trogen from the air and secrete
it for the use of rice plants, or
add it to the soil when the algae
died.
But this process was thought to
be too slow to be Of any real sig
nificance.
DR.. Arnon found that under prop
er conditions these algae can take
nitrogen from the air at rates al
most 200 times faster than had
been believed. The algae grow fast
er than credited.
The algae get their energy from
the sun, and don't need materials
from the soil in order to produce
nitrogen. They thus could be OF
great importance in future agri-
culture.

DischargeOf

Head Asked

HARTFORD, Conn. Up - The
State Welfare Department, charg'
ing that orphans we're thrown
against walls and whipped with
leather belts as punishment, has
asked John Lodge to fire the
superintendent IF the New Haven
County temporary home for chill
dren.
The charges were made yester.
day in a report to Lodge, who
turns over the governorship Jan.
S to Democrat Abraham A. Ribi.
coff. The report was written by
former Welfare Commissioner
Howard Houston, who resigned last
week to accept US. government
post in India.
Houston told Lodge that Fred
Stickels, superintendent Of the
home in West Haven, should be
kept on no longer "than is abso.
lutely necessary because a Wei.
fare Department investigation
showed Stickels is grossly unable
to manage the home"
Houston said his investigators
found that a 22-year-old, 2O0-pound
attendant once twisted a boys arm
until it broke because the boy had
gotten out of line.
The same attendant, Houston
said, dragged another boy across
the dining room floor and hurled
him against the wall because the
boy swore at the table. Houston
said the boy suffered a concussion
Stickels has denied the charges
many of which Houston said were
based on complaints Of two former
employees.
Houston said the Child Welfare
League of America will conduct a
full-scale investigation of the home,
where some 100 state wards are
housed until they can be accommo
dated in private homes.
New Haven County's three com
missioners have decided not to dis
miss Stickels before the welfare

Morse ToFight
For Wage Boost

WASHINGTON R - Sen. Morse
(Ind.Ore) predicted today that
Congress next year will boost the
75-cent hourly minimum wage and
said he will fight for an increase
at least to 81.
He said in an interview he will
seek also to have the Fair Labor
Standards Act applied to all Amer
lean workers. Many are now ex-
empty, including all those whose
jobs do not directly involve inter-
state commerce. About "a million
workers are, covered.
Secretary of Labor Mitchell has
come out for an increase in the
minimum wage. Some congress
sional sources said today they ex-
pect President Eisenhower to ask
Congress to raise the 75-cent mini
mum fixed in 1949 and to broaden
coverage. These sources said the
proposed increase might be to IS
or 80 cents an hour, just about
>compensating for a 1873 per cent
increase in the cost of living since
1919.
Morse said three major factors
call for a minimum wage boost:
(1) low-wage families need help
in meeting a cost of living level
near its peak, (2) an increase
would spiral through the economy
and thus broaden the purchasing
base of American consumers" and
(3) a higher figure would be "a
demonstration of the strength of
the capitalistic section of the world
in advancing the welfare of the
individual" s.s,.~.~u.
