INDISPENSABLE Investment

In his address to the Boston meeting Of the
American Association for the Advancement Of
Science, Dr. Mervin J. Kelly, the distinguished
researcher-president of the Bell Telephone
Laboratories, has drawn an impressive picture
of the magnitude and Importance Of research
in the United States. At the same time, as II In
answer to those who tend to belittle people who
work obscurely with things like test tubes and
abstract mathematical formulas, he has made
clear just why the Nation must keep on invest
ing lavishly in this field.
At present, according to DR.. Kelly, our coun-
try is spending $50 billion a year on basic
and applied research in governmental and nom
governmental laboratories Approximately $24
billion Of this sum is Federal money-or money
put up by the taxpayers-and the balance comes
from industry and other private sources. OF
the total outlay, roughly so per cent is devoted
to work on projects Of a military nature, with
the remainder being invested in non-military
investigations and experiments aimed at pro-
noting human progress in various ways.
To illustrate the immense practical signih-
canoe Of all this, DR.. Kelly has recalled how
research during the Second World War led to
such revolutionary things as radar, the prox-
unity fuse and atomic bombs. And he has
emphasized that since We day and vi day
there have been many additional developments
Of the utmost Importance e-new weapons whose
combined effectiveness is SO appalling" that
numerous old military concepts have become
meaningless, and whose force is sd great that
armed manpower can be substantially reduced
without any loss In either offensive or defensive
strength.
In DR.. Kelys opinion-and it is an authori-
tative opinion-the prime result Of these ac-
complishments is that the United States is
building an arsenal Of such power that victory
for the free world should be assured In case
Russia should start war; But that Is not all.
for our laboratories and the workers in them
have been making great contributions in the
non-militaty field as well. That Is why our
research effort-looked at in any light-must

Fire at William and Mary

The fire which destroyed the auditorium OF
the comparatively new Phi Beta Kappa Hall at
the College Of William and Mary at williams
burg, Virginia, appears not to have damaged
the archives of the oldest of Greek-etter frater-
mites. Some papers are reported to have been
reached by smoke and water, but without seri-
full purpose Of calling attention to the fact that
all such raw materials" of history require
protection. Irreplaceable books and manu-
scripts of the national organization easily could
have been reduced to ashes in the conhagration
Phi Beta Kappa was founded at william
and Mary on December 5, 1776. It's i've charter
members were John Heath, Richard Booker,
Thomas Smith, Armistead Smith and John
Jones' They are forgotten men except in rela-
ton to their fraternity. Five years after their
first formal meeting their college was closed
British, French and finally American troops in
turn occupied the buildings The society would
have ceased to exist had it not been for grant
to Elisha Parmele to establish chapters at Yale
and Harvard in 1880 and 1871.
Not until 1925 did Phi Beta Kappa as 1t is
known today become an organized entity. In
its new form 1t no longer was secret. Scholar
ship became its leading feature. Women were
admitted beginning in 1875. BY 1941 there were
more than 100000 members, all pledged to the
love Of wisdom as a guide for life Williamsburg
is natural focal center for the entire Greek
letter movement, but the rebuilt Phi Beta
Kappa Hall certainly should be fireproof. The
fraternitys original documents are scarce
enough as 1t is.

In reply to "Perfecta Planna," feel
the country isn't going to fold up and
blow away tomorrow nor any time
in the immediate future. I heartily
agree with Harrison County, Ohio!
Since when can't the people in this
country refuse Federal aid and conduct
their own local government? Since
when does some Government bureau
crat in Washington. and we have had
far too many of them in the last
20 years, tell any county in any State
what they must. can or cannot do?
What Harrison County, Ohio, does
will not wreck the ship Of state. It
probably has committed q terrible
"hereSy" in the minds Of those vocal
few who feel that the state or big

their form of initiative. At least it
shows that they do not rely on some
one else to do their thinking. They
show that they choose to be uncommon
rather than common. take issue that
this so-called "heresy" Is through
ignorance alone. Perhaps in the last
20 years they have been subjected
to the extreme "brilliance" of q group
of men, and their "red herring" fellow
travellers. who admittedly have righted
some wrongs. but have also tried
desperately to socialize these United

much Federal power. "Perfecta Planna"
would probably have his way. One
need only look about the world today

September %, 1858, over 800 night-fly-

In Pruise of Lawrence

There is no columnist writing on the

Of it SO cogently, so forcefully, so hon.
estly and so effectively as David Law
renee. The charge that he is "hysteri-

could be leveled against him. The fact
of the matter is that the hysteria, the
witch hunting and the stake burning
are all on the other side. The savage,
beastly pogrom so rampant at the mo-
ment, a "scorched earth" policy for
Mccarthy and his committee is in line
with the sympathies Mr.. Scoll ex-
presses, To quote Mr.. Scoll again: "It
takes courage and faith to stand forth
right for decency, law and order when
many around you are shouting for the
quick. discriminating vengeance of
the gallows." How right he isl But, he
should understand that the pack is all
on his side.

peded into a condemnation of Nc
Carthy or his legal counsels actions
