shell"
The shell Is about 30,0O0,-
900, 1000. 900, 900. 900, 900 miles in
diameter and trillions Of miles
thick. Within it are contained
all the millions Of star sys-
TENS. or galaxies. each with q
hundred billion-odd stars.
This concept Of a "shelled"
creation was presented re-
Gently before the Washington
Academy Of Sciences by DR..
r. M. Page, astronomer Of the
Naval Research Laboratory. It
is, he holds, a possible conse-
quence of the expansion Of the
universe, an idea now gener-
ally accepted by astronomers.
This theory holds that about
five billion years ago all the
matter in creation was con-
tanned in a single mass. This
exploded. The star systems,
stars and planets are flying
fragments Of this explosion.
1t has been demonstrated
frequently during the past IS
years that the whole system
is expanded. The nearest ex-
terror star systems, or galaxies,
are about a million light years
the distance covered in q
million years by light moving
at about 10000 miles a Sec
ond-distant. They are moving
away from the point in space
filled by the solar system. Pre-
sumably they also are moving
away from each other. The
farther away they are, the
faster they are moving.
The fastest recession velocity
measured to date with the 200
inch Mount Palomar telescope
is $4,000 miles a second, CORE
spending to a distance Of a
billion light years. Objects
have been discerned as much
as two billion light years away,
but it has not been possible
to measure their recession
speed. They are seen not as
they are today, but as they
were two billion years ago.
Their velocity should be about
half that of light itself.
What Lies Beyond?
What lies beyond? DR.. Page
asks. According to the theory
of relatively there can be no
speed greater than that of
light, for at such q speed the
mass Of an object becomes in
finite.
When a receding galaxy
reaches the velocity of light,
he says, ;'the result might be a
piling up Of galaxies at the
outer boundary of the expand
ing universe, moving outward
as a spherical shell, or sort of
shock wave of light, at very
nearly, If not exactly, the We
locity of light.
Such a shell could hardly
be visible from the point Of
origin, but part Of it might be
visible at points far out from
the origin. If this be the case
and if the earth is sufficiently
far removed from the prime
val origin, and if telescopes
are made capable of seeing far
enough, it should be possible to
ind an increasing density of

civil war is a war between diff

WAR DRAMA ON
KRAFT THEATER
BY SHEILA GALLAGHER

AS a hard reminder of the
human suffering and anguish
caused by war, Kraft
Theater'S presentation last
night of Il Am 15-and I
Don't Want to Die" 20 pm,
WRC-4) was a meaty hour
Of high drama.
The play recounted the
experiences of a teen-age
girl during the long Russian
siege of Nazi-held Budapest.
In the lead, Bennye Gatteys
was fiercely convincing.
It was an end-or- the chair
drama all the way, with a
whale of an emotional inn
pact. One of the best scenes
was the horror expressed by
the Hungarian soldier when
he discovered that the flour
he had risked his neck for
was only plaster of Paris.
Another memorable scene
was the wedding of the two
young lovers in a war-shat-
tered room.
I suppose the most out
standing thing about the
production were the many
high points touched, and yet
at the same time the mount
ing sense of climax that was
achieved.

On the subject of impersona-
tons Cagney likes to tell the
story of the late George M
Conan, who was the most
initiated parsonage of his time
Every actor did Conan, .
Cagney recalls. HE was stopped
on Broadway one afternoon by
an out-of-work actor who in
sisted on demonstrating how well
he could impersonate him.

away, this guy went into his act
dancing, singing, the whole
Cohan bit. When he finished he
turned to Cohan and asked,
Well, how was ~
"Cohan stared at him for a
second, and said, Son, one Of us
is awful bad'."
Cagney, himself, doesn't get
disturbed over, all the imper-
sonations done of him, but he
lis amazed that they have lasted
so long.
Il haven't done that hitching-
the-pants routine since the
movie. Angels with Dirty Faces, ;
which was in 1888. And the
breathless vocal stuff was when
I was initiating Cohan in the
picture Yankee Doodle Dandy"
At So this interchangeable ex-
song-and -dance-man still can
put in a day which would knock
out men half his age. Besides re-
hearsing dance numbers with
Bob Hope this week, he is pre-
pairing another set of dance rou-
tines over at Universal-Interna
tional studios where he soon be-
gins filming the life story of Lon
CLANCY oman of a Thousand
Faces").
CLANCY, who gained his fame
as master Of misshapen make
up, started in the business as a
song landed ance-man, too. When
it came to casting the role, Gag
hey was the first one to come to
mind.
Dressing up Cagney as Lon
CLANCY probably won't have
any effect on his mimics, how
ever. They will stick to the Gag
iney they know-breathless and
bouncing.
Does Cagney plan to do more
Tv?
Eyes, I probably will, but no
more than two shows a year, and
then when the right thing comes
along" he says.
No one is going to find it nee
essary to tell Cagney to Change

Friends, thank you for listening.
Good night.

Mr.. E E
concluded

after day. We spoke to dozens OF
Congressman, Senators and staff
members of the Senate and House
Committees and it was finally
agreed, subject to the approval of
the full Committee, to visit the
Islands for a period of from one
to two weeks early in December,
to consider changes in Jul politi-
cal status, if, any. / should also
report at this time, that a num-
Der of members of the Commit
tee are giving serious considera-
ton to establishing the Virgin Is
lands as a County or "barrio' of
Puerto Rico. While there has been
talk of this from time to time,
there seems to be a great deal Of
sentiment for this view.
Fellow Virgin Islanders, it is
later than we think. We must
get together to patch up our diff
ferences and to work out a pro-
gram which will make us econo-
mically more self-sufficient as
well as a strong political base up
on which our economy must rest.
The members of Congress have
a warm and friendly feeling for
the islands. / know that the Con-
gress is sympathetic of our needs.
i know that the members of Con-
gress whom we have spoken to
sincerely and genuinely wish to
do all within their power to make
the Virgin Islands a happier place
to live in. They want to do every
thing possible to help us, but we
must first help ourselves. Mr..
IO'Brien suggested that we give
serious consideration to our
needs. That we get together and
formulate a realistic program and
to have it ready for submission to
his committee for its considera-
ton when he arrives. We have
ample talent and intelligence here
in the Islands to develop a sound
program. / am taking the liberty
at this time to suggest that the
Governor, the Legislature and
a Citizens Committee, consist
ing of persons deeply interest
ed in the welfare of the Is
lands, sit down together around
the table, without rancor and Bit
terness. to forget our past differ
ences 9and political affiliations, &
with charity in our hearts and in
the spirit of give and take, to de-
velop ar constructive, economic,
political and social program for
the Islands, of which we can all
be proud. / know that our differ
ences are not irreconcilable. We
must start somewhere. Let us
start right here and now. We here
know our problems best, and if
we here on the ground floor can
work out a program for our own
mutual good, / know that the Con

OF COURSE, all of this aaILimportant1 and vital" ques-
ton is clearly sarcastic and apparently intended to hold up
to ridicule the methods employed in these Islands. Just ina
CINE, with such matters are foreign aid, Russian threat to air
and atomic superiority, the muti-b1lion dollar road program,
the school BILL segregation, and finally, the Republican con
vention in. California coming up next month, a vetoed bill
for two comfort stations in far-off Virgin Islands makes US
look plain silly.
U WHAT is behind it alP Why would any legisla-
tuTe use tn. erection of two comfort stations as the basis for
bringing to a head any other problem? II seems to us that
the Legislature missed the boat on this one, and at the same
time worked to hold itself up in the most unfavorable light
possible before the President, the Congress and the Ameri-
can people.
AFTER ALL IS said and done the one question which
is being asked everywhere is whether these Islands cannot
manage their affairs more effectively than to burden the
White House viii a bill which demands more money for
two comfort stations.
THAT THERE may be serious problems; that the Gov
ernor and the Legislature differ as to what is best; that the
Governor may have missed the boat on some things there
is no question whatever. Further, that the people through
their Legislature may have just grievances which deserve
airing and more and better attention there may likewise be
no question. But to allow the matter of two comfort stations
to become the straw designed to break the camefs back is
not only to defeat the very basis for presenting and solving
other, more Just and basic problems, but to render a distinct
dsservice to these Islands. We urge that the bill be recalled.
PERHAPS THE time has come for an "agonizings re-
appraisal to use Secretary Dulles phrasel Of our thinking,
our methods, and our objective.
