Effective Police Work

The quick capture by police of three
suspects In the SenseleSS Staying of
Gallaudet College student is further strik-
Ing evidence Of the effectiveness of the
Police Departments "roving squad" sys-
tenn OF crime suppression. This system,
under which the city is patrolled, night
and day, by interlocking district teams
OF veteran detectives, is credited by Chief
Murray with major role in reducing the
amount of crime in WaShington-despite
the rising national crime rate. The word
is getting around that the Nations Cap
1tal no longer is the "Soft spot" which
underworld characters once thought 1t
to be.
Under the mobile squad plan, the
city several years ago was divided into
f1ve police districts, each with a picked
group OF experienced crime fighters and
investigators. Heading each squad is a
lieutenant who has demonstrated unusual
ability in solving crimes and catching
criminals. In the Northeast section the
district squad is headed by Lieutenant
Nunzio BonaccorSy. This squad, which
is authorized to cross precinct lines and
is directed to coordinate its activities
with other district squads and with the
Detective Bureau, was at the scene of the
fatal shooting of John A. Rieff on Morse
street NE. short time after the students
murder by trio of hoodlumS in a car.
The lieutenant and his men were given
a tag number-which proved to be partly
incorrect-but by diligent and intelligent
work they succeeded in tracing the get
away car and in identifying and arresting
the three suspects. They say that one
has confessed the shooting.
This is the kind of quick and relent-
less police work that deters criminality
and engenders public confidence in and
support of the Police Department Any
criminals who may be looking forward to
joining the inaugural throngs in WASH
ington in quest of easy victims would do
well to take notice of the changed law
enforcement situation here.

Moscow on Nehru's Visit

Beaming itself particularly to the
peoples Of Asia and Africa, the Moscow
radio has now tried to spread the i'm
pression that the United States has
sought to hoodwink them with its recent
hospitable reception to Prime Minister
Nehru Of India. Actually, according to
the Soviet propagandists, our country
or at least IAN influential group" in our
ruling circles"-is hostile to Mr.. Nehru
and Far Eastern leaders in general, and
the American courtesies and good will
that have been displayed toward him
have been basically phony.
This, Of course, is propaganda Of an
absurd sort, and 1t seems palpably de-
signed to belittle the potential impor-
tance OF Mr.. Nehrus series OF meetings
with President Eisenhower. Because OF
their brutal repression Of Hungary, the
men OF the Kremlin have suffered a
serious blow to their prestige and infiu-
ence among the ASian-African nations,
where our American position has mean
while been enhanced So 1t is not sur
prising that they are attempting to re-
gain some OF their lost ground by pooh
pooling the Nehru- Eisenhower talks and
suggesting that the United States has
played genial host TO the Indian states

aimed at covering up an unfriendly and

Problem Drivers

Detroit has an effective plan for
dealing with what that citys traffic
judges call problem drivers" The term
is applied generally to chronic trafic-law
violators, especially those with a record
Of repeated offenses endangering lives or
property. These irresponsible drivers are
referred by the court to its psychiatric
clinic, where they undergo mental and
physical examinations to determine their
fitness to drive. If the clinic rules that
the driver In question is an unwarranted
risk, his permit is revoked. And the clinic
is given part of the credit for Detroit's
outstanding record in trafic safety.
Against this background, therefore,
the Commissioners Traffic Advisory
Board has decided to recommend the
establishment in Washington Of similar
clinic. The board not only has studied
the operation of the Detroit clinic but has
sponsored visit here by DR.. Alan Canty,
its head. DR.. Canty told group of Dis
trict ofncials, judges and others interested
In trafic safety that out Of 10000 persons
so far examined in Detroit, 100 we're found
to need commitment to mental hospital,
$50 were feebleminded or nearly so and
1000 were former inmates Of mental in
stitutions. OF the latter group, it was
found in numerous cases that doctors who
had released the former inmates were
shocked to learn that they had been given
drivers permits. Until the clinic was
established. however. there was no pro-
cedure for checking on such drivers.
The Detroit findings justify consid-
Grafton OF a similar process here to help
the court in handling problem drivers"
in the District. For there has been abun-
dant evidence in the past that some Of
the drivers on our streets are In need Of
mental examination and treatment.

Electoral Incident

In your paper of December
21, an article by j. A. OLeary
states that when w. F. Turner,
one Of the Alabama electors,
cast his vote for Circuit Judge
Walter B. Jones Of Montgom-
cry instead of Mr.. Stevenson
1t was the second time in re-
cent years in which an elector
has exercised his independent
judgment.
I would like to point out TO
you that the very first in
stance of a similar occasion
was when the electors met to
ratify the second election Of
President James Monroe In
1921. Senator William Plumer
OF New Hampshire cast his
vote for John Quincy Adams,
who was our Minister TO Rus
sia at the time and was not
even in this country. Many
historians have ascribed this
action to the fact that Senator
Plumer did not want Monroe

Blow for the South

When we have q situation
such as that which has arisen
from the May II, 1854, edict
by the Supreme Court that
Negro children cannot get an
education free of complexes
except in the presence of white
children, because no doubt
the Negro children are held to
be entitled to the best, we are
certain to run into the most
amazing complications, not
only of enforcement of the
edict. but even of talking
about it.
To wit, an educator" from
PennSylYania's Lincoln Uni
versity has stated in the public
prints that "it is possible to
conclude on the basis of GER
tain intelligence tests that
most Southerners are dull
normal or moron" This
gentleman is taking his swing
at the South in the interest
of integration. We ask this
question: Why would he be
so concerned to force Negro
children into the schoolrooms
with the offspring Of such peo-
pie of low intelligence?
This account goes further to
say that the Mississippi white
soldiers stood absolutely last
in the Army single 10. tests"
If this is true, does not this
educator prove what the white
Southerners claim; namely,
that mixing too closely with
Negroes has a tendency to re-
tard the white folks? Bear in
mind that Mississippi has the
largest percentage of Negroes
in the Nation.
Clarence Mitchell, NAACP
Washington director, is re-
ported to have sent pertinent
pages of this report to certain
Southern members of Con-
gress. Evidently Mitchell was
pleased with the claims of
said educator" Did Mitchell
reflect upon the illogical posi-
ton he has placed himself in,
as stated above? 1t is indeed
difficult to understand how he
thinks the Negroes can be
other than harmed by asso-
citation with such backward
white folks. granting that
Mitchell's expert has the right
slant on this situation.

line Of talk may nevertheless sound per-
suasive to many Of those "neutralists"
who tend, in India and elsewhere, to
repose confidence in almost anything the
Soviet Union says. Accordingly, in the
teeth of such mendacity, Mr.. Nehru
might find it useful and pertinent to set
the record straight. Needless to say, If he
were to issue a statement confirming the
understanding and friendship he has

ganda to the contrary would be utterly

How Many Winos?

There are two things to be kept in
mind in appraiSing the latest controversy
over the strength of our Air Force.
The Air Force Association has
charged that our air arm, originally
scheduled to include 1877 wings by next
June 80, is going to be cut to ITO wings
by 1860. On its face, this would seem to
signify radical diminution of air
strength. But this is not necessarily the
case.
Air strength is not measured only in
terms OF numbers of wings. 1t is neces-
sary to consider what constitutes a wing
the number and kind of planes in it,
the nature Of the weapons they will carry,
etc. It is possible that one wing in 1860
will be more powerful than three wings
today. 1t is also necessary to keep in
mind the fact that the Air Force is de-
signed to do particular job. In the case
of our long-range bombers, their job is
to destroy the targets in Russia which we
would want to destroy in event Of war. If
this could be done with x number Of
wings, there is no point in having twice
that number on hand
OF course, there is an element of
oversimpliacation in this. Furthermore,
the danger of emphasizing economy at
the expense of security is real, and we
hope that Congress and the critics of de-
fense policies will keep close watch on
any cutback-apparent or real. But the
test is not in numbers alone Better
planes, better weapons, the job to be
done, new systems of delivery-all these
enter into what we call air strength, and
this is fact which must be kept in mind.

Your editorial, "Our Guest
Departs" is disappointing. Over
800 words to give Nehru the
benefit of our doubts" and
one short statement express
ing the hope that his under
standing of this Nations aims
has improved.
1t is true that Nehru spent
certain periods in British jails
for his efforts toward Indian
independence; it is also factual
that Hungarians. whose cause
Nehru refused to support in
the United Nations, have been
dying in freedoms cause. You
request understanding" and
patience" of Mr.. Nehru with
the proposal that his policies
may be the most helpful role
that India could play. Your
thesis would be acceptable
except for the news columns
of The Star relating India's
pro-Soviet brand of neutrality
in recent years. 1t might not
be out of order to recall at this
time that Switzerland and
Sweden have been able to
maintain the "nonalignment"
that Nehru claims without
sympathy for the Soviet siren
song of decadent Western
capitalism.
Illiteracy in the democracies
Of Switzerland and Sweden is
almost nonexistent; in India
only II per cent of the popu-

WSTAS IN SCIENCE
Astronomers Accentuote Positive
BY THOMAS R. HENRY

There Is no more than q MIL
lionth part as much anti-mat-
ter as positive matter in the
universe.
This has been determined
by Carnegie Institution of
Washington astronomers. ac-
cording to the report of DR..
Ira S. Bowen, director of
Mount Wilson and Mount Pal
omar observatories.
Anti-matter is matter whose
atoms consist Of a nucleus of
negative protons surrounded
by positive electrons. Positive
MATERIAL unknown to man
until q few months ago-has
atoms made of positive proton
nuclei with negative electrons
as satellites.
theoretically when an atom
Of one collides with an atom
of the other both are totally
annihilated. The explosion re-
sulting from collision of any
sizable masses would be many
thousand times as great as
that of a hydrogen bomb,
where only a minute fraction
of the mass is converted into
energy. Quite obviously if at
any time amounts of the two
kinds of matter had been
equal the universe hardly
could have continued to exist.
When existence Of negative
protons was demonstrated
conclusively about four months
ago. Carnegie astronomers
Fred Hoyle and G. r. Bur-
bidge considered the probable
course Of events. When pro-
tons and antiprotons collide,
they determined, both would
become showers of mesons, the
lately discovered very heavy
elementary particles, whose
lifetimes are measured in
thousandths of a second. They
are the first step when energy,
according to the laws of rela-
tivity, is converted into matter.
Move Too Fast
The mesons, in turn, would
decay almost Immediately into
permanent elementary par
ticles - neutrinos, anti-neu-
trinos, negative electrons and
positive electrons, or POSITIONS.
There would be nothing COM
parable in mass to a proton.
The neutrinos and anti
neutrinos-also lately demon
strated particles-would have
no effect whatsoever. Their
masses are too small to be
measured. They move too fast.
They can move at terrific
speed through solid lead
virtually forever. The posi-
tive and negative electrons
will annihilate each other
when they collide. There are
so few Of the latter, accord
ing to the calculations of Hoyle
and Burbidge, that this would
make no difference so far as
stability Of the universe is
concerned.
They have, however, one
very important effect. There
are thousands, perhaps mil
lions, Of radio stars" in the

erful radio waves are re-
ceived but where no visible
objects can be discerned.

Our doves are cousins to the
pigeons, and possess many
similar traits.
Once the dove was kept as q
cage bird. Wooden cages
hanging at barn doors were an
accepted part of the scene.
In "The Gentle Persuasion"
something is said Of a startling
in wooden cage. but we may
wonder II it really was q
startling. since these birds were
not brought to this country
until after the time Of the
story.
Our doves are among the
most familiar Of all birds to
people Of the Midwest and
Eastern States. Their soft,
though far-carrying voices. be-
come familiar to all children.
Most listeners regard the COO
as sad in character. probably
mostly because pitched in q
minor key.
Perhaps the idea Of gentle"
came from these soft notes,
too.
Our kind correspondent
should not feel sorry for the
doves. Nature has endowed
them with qualities which
make them very successful
except In their meeting with
hunters.
The name turtle dove" may
come from the markings on
the back. but probably from
the fact noted, that their legs
are very short. and they seem
to be moving on water as they
walk through the grass. In
this they may be said 10 re-
sembfe the ordinary walk Of
turtles or tortoises.
Doves also attract attention
by the whistling sound their
wings make when they take

Of snow and ice. In snowy
