centration of radioactivity is
not more Ethan 10 times the
maximum safe amount.
The chemicals that decon-
taminate the water so effectively,
DR.. Lacy said, are complex or
ganic substances known as ion
exchange resins" which contain
large numbers of electrically
charged units known as ions. In
water most dissolved radioactive
substances also take the form of
ions.
When these resins and radio
active water are mixed. DR.. Lacy
explained. the water deposits its
radioactive ions on the resin,
which is left behind when the
water is drawn off. In exchange,

The process is basically the
same, DR.. Lacy said. as that
which takes place in many
home water softeners. Small or

ATLANTIC CITY, N. j., Sept.
IA new rubber which will
stand up under temperatures
from minus IS degrees to plus
500 degrees Fahrenheit was de-
scribed at opening meetings OF
the American Chemical Society
here today.
AS an electrical insulating ma
terial it may result in pushing
back the cheat barrier" which
now limits the performance OF
Jet planes and guided missiles, 1t
was indicated by DR.. F. T. Parr
of the Westinghouse Corp.
The material, DR.. Parr said.
is one Of a group Of chemicals
known as organosilicons. In lab
oratory tests, he said, the ma
terials have proved to be good
insulators for power transformers
in operation as long as 500
hours at internal temperatures
as high as 482 Fahrenheit while
the surrounding air temperature
was 800 Fahrenheit.
Speed of jet planes and rockets,
DR.. Parr explained, is limited by
the high temperatures developed
In electronic equipment which
must work Unfortunately fast be-
cause of high speeds.
High speed creates high tenn
peratures around the equipment
because of air friction. This
heat destroys all ordinary in
sulation. Power transformers es-
pecially, he said, generate a lot
of heat in normal operation and
become extremely hot at high
speeds. The new development
also. he said. will enable the
transformers to be made about
so per cent lighter:

.StateConsiders
Tax Increases

BALTIMORE. Dec. IA (P).-
Gov. McKeldin is bordering pos
sible tax sources to raise SO mil
lion in new revenue next year
to balance the budget he will
present to the 1857 General
Assembly.
From present indications it
will be a whopping spending bill,
probably topping $3.50 million,
compared to the $309,036, 1877 APP
propriated for the current fiscal
year.
Income Forecast
The Board of Revenue Esti-
mates yesterday forecast that
the State could expect the fol-
income during the year
which begins next July /:
43,5SO,237 in General Funds
derived from such general taxes
as those on sales, income. fran
chises. horse racing and alco-
lholic beverages.
$132.250,796 in Special Funds
from dedicated taxes such as
gasoline, motor vehicles, hunting
and fishing licenses.
$51. 821, 500 in Federal funds
as aid to the State in such speci-
| fled projects as welfare opera
tionS.
Estimate Raised
In addition, the board doubled
the amount of general fund sur
plus it predicted last summer the
State would wind up with. 1t
now estimates there will be $13,-
I625.733 in the kitty which the
Governor can use toward next
years budget. Most of the &c.
1884 surplus increase will come
from increased tax revenue,
which the board says should be
SIS million higher than it orig
inally guessed.
This means the Governor and
his budget makers will have
$157 .205.970 in general fund rev.
enues with which to work in ball
ancing the new budget. But Gov,
McKeldin indicated yesterday it
still will be short of what is
needed and said he might have to
propose a tax increase to net
in "the area Of SO million addi-
tional.
He did not indicate what spe-
cific tax proposal he might have
in mind to accomplish this, and
said the figure might wind up
short of So million since there is
further work to be done on the
budget.

McKeIdin Condemns
Bricker Amendment
BY the Associated Press

Gov. McKeldin has con-
demned the proposed Bricker
amendment to the Constitution
and said it reflects the rebel
lion of some senators against
the restrictions the Constitution
puts upon them.
The amendment would re-
quire ratification of foreign
treaties, negotiated by the
President. by a two-thirds ma
jority of both houses of Con-
greSs. Only Senate ratification
is required now.
The Governor spoke at the
annual banquet of the Prince
Georges County Real Estate

sible to pursue in silence so that
the note of their bay will not
warn the fugitive or brighten the
lost child.
"Once the fugitive or the child
is found. a thoroughbred blood
hound is satisfied; he has
achieved his objective, which is
to find. not to MAIN and not to
attack"
One difficulty. Mr.. Karrick
said, is the dogs extreme af-
liability and friendliness with the
object of his pursuit, who is
sometimes more able to "effec-
tuate his escape after making
friends with the dogs than be-
fore they have found him."
LOTIONS bloodhounds cost the
District about seven cents a day
per dog for food.
Prisoner Helps Training
Recently Mr.. Maconaughey
took two of the dogs out for a
fast walk in the fields. The two
almost plowed up the ground
with their square noses as they
took off in pursuit of a prisoner
"a prisoner who oddly enough
helps Mr.. Maconaughey train
the pack.
In training, Mr.. Maconaughey
chooses prisoners who have only
a short time left to serve and
are in good standing. Frequently
the prisoner will walk a few
miles, then sit down and wait
for the trainer and his dogs. It
means a pleasant change from
prison routine.
AS for the dogs worth, Mr..
Karrick put it this way in his
Sulgrave speech:
Il want to commend to your
affection and your interest. the
lovable and loyal bloodhounds
in the kennels at Lorton as the
most humble and most deserv-
ing"
The District government, he
concluded, has no employees
more devoted and matchmaking
than these faithful canines."

Cole Is Lauded
AT Dedication

Gov. McKeldin said today that
much of the fine spirit" at the
University of Maryland is the
spirit of Judge William P. Cole,
jr., of Baltimore.
The Governor made his re-
marks in an address prepared for
delivery at ceremonies dedicat-
ing the university's 12,500-seat
indoor stadium in honor of Judge
Cole.
The building, completed in
1855 at a cost of $3.3 million, will
be known as the William P. Cole,
Jr., Student Activities Building.
Judge Cole has served on the
university's Board of Regents for
Is years, the last II as chairman.
He was graduated from Mary
land Agriculture College-fore-
runner of the university-in 1910
and completed two years at the
university's Law School in 1912.
He served two terms in Con-
greSs, reSigning in 1912 to accept
appointment to assistant judge
of the United States Customs
Court in New York. In 1852
he was appointed assistant Judge
of the United States Court of
Customs and Patent Appeals.
The activities building, includ-
ing the mems swimming pool, is
one of a number of projects
being financed by the university
through the issuance of 30-year
bonds. 1t is the second largest
indoor stadium on the East
Coast exceeded only by New
York's Madison Square Garden.
Judge Cole is convalescing at
a Baltimore hospital. His brother,
c. Walter Cole, was to make an
acceptance speech for him.
Gov. McKeldin said Maryland
is proud of its liberal arts COL
leges but our universities have
a much different role in our
educational scheme"
He said versatility is the life
of a university"
"The university is not Just a
college. 1t is a whole group of
colleges. 1t is even more. 1t is
network of research"

The SIT million includes funds

The construction proposal:

Walter N. Tobriner, board

special committee for the pur-
pose. He also opposed expendi-
ture for a new college building
before pressing elementary
school needs are met.
Support From Others
The college project was
strongly supported by others
however. Mrs. Manson B. Petit
said she considered the present
college buildings quite made

ley S. Williams said expanded
college facilities will be needed
urgently in the near future. He

year in hopes that the bond
market might improve by that
time.
Board members Robert Davis
and Clyde Gleason said such a
plan could backflre if the politi-
cal situation in Virginia should
worsen. They argued it is possible
that court decisions may over
throw Virginia's legal moves for
continuing segregation, leaving
the State with the alternative of
withholding funds from local
school districts or adopting new
laws in another special session of
the Virginia Legislature.
Such a series of events could
make bond buyers even more
wary in considering future bond
offerings in Virginia, they said

ceived from the First National
City Bank of New York reflected

over the bid Prince Georges
County received two weeks ago.
Failure to sell the bonds would
have interrupted the massive

when voters approved $50 mil

county must build one classroom

Mr.. Nelson expressed doub
about this idea, however, adding
that this would hurt" District
teacher preparation because

wouldn't be tailored to the Dis
trict's curriculum.
Mr.. Tobriner said after the
meeting that he had asked fol-
"a copy of the accrediting report
made last year. and that he in

college and study its operation
He added that he does not in
tend to advocate abandonment
of the college. but he declared
i I'm not making any attack
on the teachers college as such
but this is the time to stop
and take a look-see as to where
we go and what we do with it. .
1 The board member also ex-
planned that his suggestion for
sending teacher-trainees to other
colleges referred to any overflow
of students, rather than imply
ing closing of the college.
City College ChampiOned
School Supt. Hobart M. Corn
ing told the board he is aiming
for development of the teachers
college into a city college. The
transition, he said, would be
carried out in stages. with estab-
lishment of a graduate school
and a junior college first. The
graduate school already has
been started with new masters
degree program in the present
buildings.
