To accomplish this, he has
written magazine articles. books,

Walt Disney for a movie about
space, later shown on television.
Mr.. Won Braun lives in a
modest three-bedroom ranc h

two daughters, Iris. 7. and Mar

Air conditioning has helped

German Society for Space
Travel, and later became as
ISOLATED with the German Ord
malice Department. At 25, he
was technical director of the
German rocket center at Peene-
munde, on the Baltic Sea. where
the terrible W. was developed.
He and many other scientists
at the Peenemunde center real
lied that they were on the brink
of a new frontier. After the
war, they were not certain that
they would not be short for de-
veloping the W. terror weapon,
but they wanted a chance to
continue their work with rockets.
Walter Wieman, who was in
charge of two rocket laboratories
at Peenemunde and who now
works with Mr.. Won Braun at
RedStone. recalls that on a cold
January morning in 1945 he re-
ceived a very official looking let
ter, ordering him to move his
facilities to an area which later
was designated as the Western
Zone of Germany.

Mr.. Won Braun himself recalls
the decision to move came as the
result of vote.

he says. Five promised death
by a firing squad if we moved.
Five said I'd be shot if we didn't

Calling in his staff, a vote was
taken. They decided to make a
break for the Western Zone,
where they later surrendered to
the Americans.
Mr.. Won Braun has had a
hand in the rocket development
program of the United States
since he came to this country
in September. 1945. He has been
at Redstone since 1850 after his
transfer from the White Sands

Progress Noted
In South Korea
BY EDWARD MARION

North American Newspaper Alliance
UNITED NATIONS, Nov. l.
In a South Korean valley, a vast
cement plant is rising, symbolic
Of the uninterrupted progress"
Just reported by the United Ma
tons Korean reconstruction
agency.
The report and the cement
plant are discussed enthusiastic
cally here by UNKRA officials
who say that the cumulative eff
'fects" of the aid poured into
Korea are now evident.
UNKRA's agent general, 1t.
Gen. John B. Courier, finds that
foreign aid, especially U. N. and
United States aid, coupled with
the vigorous and determined eff
forts of the Korean government
and people resulted in a
greater degree of economic sta
billty than at any time since
1851"
This peak in Korea's postwar
period is dramatized in the place
where Mountain Of the Sea Gulls,
Temple Mountain, Round Noun
tain, Lake Mountain and Noun
tain of the Pines surround the
valley of the new $8.5 million &C.
ment plant.
With a potential capacity of
100000 tons a year, the plant
when completed next year win
materially meet the countrys
desperate need for building ma :
terials to rebuild where war des-
troyed and to keep pace with an
expanding economy.
Location Is Ideal
Ideally located. the plant will
get limestone from Round
Mountain to the south, and
water for the cooling plants from
the River Yong on the north
side. Coal will come from a
nearby mine.
The plant. which will be one
OF the worlds most modern
cement plants. is rising on a site
where only two small cottages
stood and where ancestral tombs
were scattered about That was
in June, 1855. when the engi-
neers first arrived, but since then
the tombs have been moved and
the cottage jewellers given new
homes.
Farmers are being converted
into workmen, small merchants
are opening shops. craftsmen are
selling their work, and conversa-
ton in the teahouses has changed
from crops to cement.
AS one UNKRA official said
"this sleepy agricultural town
ship called Sinki-Ri has rubbed
It's eyes and is suddenly full OF
activity"
Aid at 4.235 Sites
In the overall picture, the
cement plant is one OF 4,235
sites where UNKRA has provided
assistance. Work has been COM
pleted at 3.249 sites, covering
such fields as irrigation. forestry.

ON NEWSPAPER
ADVERTISING

After all the revolutionary
changes which have taken place
in the advertising world in the
last ten years, the newspaper -
it is now proven - remains the
best medium of advertising.
The audience of a newspaper is
always many times greater than
the number of paid subscribers.
The average newspaper is read by
more than one person and - in
most cases - a newspaper is
read by many people.
Moreover, a newspaper is a per-
manent record, and - as kept in
libraries, il schools and in bust
ness files - constitutes a perma-
nent source of advertising. 1t is
not stretching the facts to say that
most newspapers r read by
more than a dozen persons.
Because these facts are true,
and because the light of fact is
beginning to be shed on various
types OF advertising, as they COM
pete with each other, and
in spite of all the competition
from new media, newspaper ad-
vertiSing continues to grow and
the public continues to express its
confidence in newspapers to an
amazing degree.
The newspaper, today then, rep
resents an even better buy, for
the few cents one pays for it,
than it ever has before, since the
time of the invention of the print
ing press. The newspaper is still

HOW TO AVOID


The Massachusetts Police Chiefs
Association recently issued some
advice to householders who wish
to avoid robberies. The sugges-
tons are worth repeating to our
readers. Here they are:
(1) Do not boast about money
you have accumulated.
(2) Lock your doors at dark.
(3) Don't open the front door
until you know who is outside,
and until you have turned on a
light.
"a In case of theft, call the
police Immediately.
(5) If you see the thief, or
thieves. memorize as many details
as you can about clothing, ap-
pearance, and so on.
(6) Do not keep your money at
home.
% Do not be a dead hero.
We might add one additional
item to the above list. That is,
keep a good watchdog in your
home or apartment. The best
watchdog is one that will bark
at every stranger, and which stays
home at night if let out to sleep.
