Ho|tzoff Calls
Scientists Easy
Prey Of Reds
Sentencing Physicist,
He BIomes Modern
Educational Methods
By HOWARD L. DUTKIN

ny hOW AID l.. QUINN
Federal Judge Alexander
Holtzoff today criticized mod
ern educational methods as prob
ably causing young physical
scientists to become "a fertile
field for Communist propa-
ganda."
The junist delivered his at
tack as he sentenced Bernard
Deutch, 81, University of Penn
sylvania physicist to 80 days in
prison for contempt of Con-
gress. Deutch remains at liberty
on $500 bond pending an APP
peal.
Deutch is graduate student
in physics at the university.
He is the author of a number of
scientific papers. The charges
against him stemmed from his
refusal to answer questions posed
in 1854 by the House Subcom-
mittee on Un-American Activi-
ties. AT the time the Subcom-
mittee was investigating Com
muniSt inf1iltration in college
faculties.
Joined at Cornell
Deutch had admitted being a
member of the Communist Party
from 1947 to 1858 while a stu
dent at Cornell University. He
holds $4,000 yearly fellowship
at the University of Pennsyl-
Vania.
He had declined through
moral scrupleS" to tell the SUBJ
committee whether other per-
sons named by it had Commu-
mist Affiliations.
When defense counsel told
Judge Holtzoff that Deutch had
refused to answer because he did
not want to bring fluctuations
on others. the jurist responded :
mo man can be law unto
himself" The Judge declared
that if everybody decided for
himself which laws he would
obey society would be in a State
of anarchy.
Judge Holtzoff. before pro-
nouncing sentence today, gave
Deutch an opportunity to answer
the questions to the court. Again,
Deutch refused.
Succumb to Propaganda
Thereupon. Judge Holtzof de-
elared:
This court has cleaned the
inference that the younger gen.
Grafton of scientists. specifically
in the field of physics. has sue
cumbed to Communist propa-
sanda."
The jurist stressed that his
remarks were not directed to
scientists in such fields as chem
tstry and engineering but only to
younger persons engaged in pure
science"
Stresses 'InteIlectuaT' Role
He declared the matter was
particularly serious where bril-
liant" persons are concerned
This. he asserted, because intel
lectuals are much more ''poten-
TALLY harmful" as subversive in
struments than are those with
lesser abilities.
He recited that some former
Communists have pleaded they
were children of the depression
But this excuse cannot apply Il
those as young as the defendant
Judae Holtzoff said.
Raps Educational Methods
The judge said he could no
ascribe reasons for defection
among young physical scientist
unless it is due to the fact tina
our educational methods have
been changed, unfortunately, il
recent years
He declared that so man,
young scientists have not beef
given "a proper cultural back.
ground and he stated they SHOW
an "abysmal ignorance" of his,
tory, economics and other studies
The judge noted that Deutct
had persisted in his refusal t
answer and the jurist declared

PARIS, Dec. 10 (P). - The

Coming knotty Problem For Council Members

discussed.
 The water situation came in for considerable d is ussion. Some Councilmen advocated making a check of pipes underneath houses to insure provisions against freeze up. No action was taken on the suggestion. Councilman Bob Spen- cer, who is also in charge of main tenance at the Aleutian Homes project, reported considerable re- pairs are being made to the homes in the area, with view to safe guarding against freeZe-upS. Pipes are being covered, he said, aE;i ar engagements being made for thaw- ing. He said the work should be completed soon The Council mem bers expressed considerable con- cern as to adequate supply of water through the winter. All water users are cautioned to re- pair leaky faucets and insulate pipes, as a means of conserving : water. The City Manager called attention to Ordinance 109, sec ton 20, which prohibits wastage of water, in the following manner: 'The practice of permitting fauc- cts, taps, or pipes to run continu- ously in order to prevent freezing during cold weather, shall be deemed a violation of this Ordin- ance."
 It was decided to have repre- sentative of the Health Depart ment come to Kodiak once q month. This was in reply to let ter from the Department.
 Liquor license applications must be in the hands of the City Clerk by November 12, it was learned at the meeting. Applications have to be in Juneau by December ], to insure their issuance by the first of the year.

Protest Made
 By Carpenters

A complaint was made in let ter to the Chamber Of Commerce from the Carpenters local, that work is being taken away from local carpenters because of the practice of local people hiring civil service workers and Navy person nel. A copy, it was stated, had been sent to the Commanding Officer on the Naval Station.
 Many of those in attendance voiced dissatisfaction with the work done by local carpenters. The inability to secure reliable men at the time needed was particularly stressed. "It is often necessary to wait months to get work done, :" one member said. Another said: It is almost impossible to get re- liable men, because those who will do good work and are dependable, are booked so far in advance" The general consensus of those present was that they preferred hiring local men, when they can be assur- ed of good workmanship.
 The letter from the Union stated the practice of hiring outside work men, prevented local men from making living.
 A committee was appointed to study the problem, and present findings to the Base Town Commit tee.
 Clarence King was authorized to act for the Chamber Tt the Con- vention of the Alaska Chamber of Commerce in session in Seward this week. The local Chamber has sent a wire to the convention fav- bring the repeal of the Jones act, as a possibility of other steamship lines considering giving passenger and freight service to Kodiak,

Lonlng, WaterIlneS, sales tax. City Hall improvements, the Gold Storage plant and provisions for adequate water this. winter were some of the problems taken up at tn City Council meeting Monday.
 zoning of the Mission Road area is proving knotty problem for fhe City Council. Several of the residents in the newly annexed area were in attendance at Mon days meeting.
 Glenn Banks, owner of the City Market, who is constructing a cold storage building adjacent to the road, appeared before the Council, requesting information on the zoning laws. The Ordinance in question, 101, did not clarify add ing to building already existing. Torkelson's Drive-Inn is another building that comes in the same category. He seeks to add to the existing Drive-Inn. The latter was already in existence prior to the annexation. Ordinance 1O1 was passed in July, 1948 The Mission Road residents feel it applies to their district.
 The problem was held over for decision awaiting an opin1on from the City Attorney, Russ Arnett, on certain legal aspects.
 Another problem in connection with the same area was acted upon. Carl Huer appeared before the Council and asked that the Mission Road wate system be maintained by, the City's crews. Councilman Dewitt Fields made the motion the City take over the job of main tenance prior to gaining title to the system. Seconded by Pete De- veau. Title will be sought from the original builders of the system, many of whom have moved away.
 The application of the Sales Tax on certain utilities was discussed briefly. Mayor Johnson stated many objected to paying it on energy bills. No decision was reached.
 City Manager Charles Iruitt brought up the matter of building two additional rooms to the pres ent City Hall. He stated the pres ent quarters were not adequate, After some discussion, the Council voted not to add anymore to a building that is temporary, The possibility of moving the City Hall operation to the new Post Office building came in for some discus sion. It was pointed out that it's dp- eration could be conducted with considerable more efficiency in the new building. Tine City Clerk was instructed to check into avail ability of space. rentals, etc. The Mirror has been advised by Dick Berg of D & A that there is not sufficient office space available at present for adequate City Hall needs.
 A further discussion followed on the Ice and Cold Storage plant on the City Dock. It was decided to send letter to local stockholders seeking their consent to the City intervening, and taking possession with view to bringing Cold Storage plant to Kodiak. The Coun- cil stipulated reply be fortheom- ing in 30 days, after which legal action is planned to acquire the property.

the four major sinus troubIemakeFs

IVIost Of the time we aren't aware Of the four
major hoIIoWs in our face bones, above and
below the eyes. But when something goes
wrong these sinuseS can cause real pain. The
reason is that there are only tiny openings
between the SinuSeS and the nose. When your
nose lining Swells, these openings close and
pressure develops inside the hollow spaces.
Anyone who suffers from sinnSitis viii tell you
hos aeOnizing the pain can Be.
Infection IS the most common cause Of acute
sinusitis. Chronic sinus trouble IS usually
caused by irritating fumes, aIIergy or faulty
nose structure
INFECTION: This occurs when germs spread
into the Sinuses. usually in the course Of cold.
When the attack is severe the patient may have
chilIs, fever and intense, thrObbing head pain.
Today there are highly effective drugs to knock
out acute Infection, others which shrink the
nose lining to open passages into the sinuseS.
The best way to keep clear Of these acute
sinus infections IS to take proper care Of colds.
Nose-blowing pushes germs up into the SinuSeS,
so if you must blow, do it gently, leaving both
nostriIS open. You can use medically recon-
mGaded nose drops four or five times day
during cold. Bed rest, of course, increases
your body's power to fight infection. Staying
home also keeps you away from other people
at a time when your weakened condition makes
their ordinary germs dangerous to you
IRRITATION: Your nose catches dust, lint
and chemicals on its moist inner surface, wash
ing every breath Of air that comes through.
Sinusitis is problem today because your nose
wasn't designed for our modern industrial
by-products of fumes and smoke. These irTi-
tate the lining and make II swell up.
Tip-offS to irritation as a cause of sinusitis
are these:
Even though sinus pain may not always
develop, your nose usually gets stuffed up
after exposure to smoke or fumes.
You get relief by shifting your surroundings
or situation "a vacation or visit to relatives
slaves off your attacks.
ALIERGY: Your body reacts violently to
small amounts of chemicals to which you are
aIIergic. Part of the reaction IS a severe SWELL
ing Of the mucous membranes, including the
lining Of your nose. Sinus openings are often
plugged up, and sinus pain follows.
