GermdnsCheck
RddiodctiVity

BONN, Germany. Aug. IA Up.
Every 20 seconds. an auto
matte check on the amount of
radioactivity in the air gets
under way in 10 German cities.
If the margin is critical three
times in a row, a warning sys-
tenn tells German meteorolo-
giStS they had better watch out.
In a similar way. rain and
snow are under permanent test.
West Germany is keeping a
close watch on radioactive par
ticles in the atmosphere as a
result of atomic explosions.
While Chancellor Konrad
Adenauer's Christian Demo-
Gratis and the opposition So
cialists, in a rare case of una
nimity. have jointly appealed
for the end of atomic testing
for a limited period" a tight
net of Pathological stations
quietly has been set up.
Under orders from the Bum
destag dover house,, 10
weather stations throughout
the country have been equipped
with complicated machines ca
pable Of measuring the amount
Of radioactivity in air, rain and
snow.
80 far" German officials
say. the danger margin was
passed only a few times and
for only a short while. There
has been no reason to fear
radioactivity."
Still, German authorities are
eager to avoid any risk. Wher
they found out that German
industry. as yet unfamiliar with
all atomic intricacies, was I'M
able to provide essential parts
for the machines. they import
ed them from Switzerland at
a cost of about 100000.

Warsaw Urged
To Grow Beard
To Hide Palace

WARSAW, Poland. Aug. IA
@.-An Italian architect has
advised Warsaw to grow a
beard to hide its most promi-
nent landmark-the Soviet
built palace of culture and
science.
Said visiting Prof. Luigi CO.
senza Of Naples University:
"When a man has an ugly
face he tries to hide it. I adj
wise you to do the same and
surround the palace with a
large park Of tall trees"
The palace was opened 1855
as Russia's gift to Warsaw. It
covers 40 acres in the city CEN
ter and towers TOO feet in the
air. 1t is built in the Russian
wedding cake style and red
lights glow from its spire at
night.
The Russians offered War
saw a housing estate a factory
or the palace. The Polish gov
eminent chose the palace and
the big problem now is what
to do with it.
Prof. CoSenza, in an inter-
view with the magazine SWAT,
said he would have preferred
a residential district on the
site. He said. however, the in
stallations inside the palace
seem to serve their purpose
well. They include q concert
hall, night club. three movie
houses, two theaterS and 80
floors of ofiices, many Of which
remain unoccupied.
OF Warsaw's rebuilding from
wartime devastation Prof. Cos
enza said:
Though ill-prepared you UNI
dertook vast architectural tasks
and because Of this you have
the respect of all people. 1t is
a pity that your architects lack
appropriate materials. You are
short Of timber and insulating
materials and as q result your
buildings are heavy and ex-
pensive."

Venezuela Puts
Final Touches
0n.Giant Dam

CALABOzO, Venezuela, Aug.
IA R.-Down here in Guarico
State-l90 miles south Of Car
acas and in the heart of the big
plains Of Venezuela--workmen
are putting the finishing touch
es on one Of South Americas
biggest flood control dams and
irrigation projects.
The dam itself. constructed
Of earth, clay and rock and
described as the biggest Of its
type on this continent. Is now
in operation after nearly two
years Of day and night work.
1t is 9 miles long and 100 feet
high in its highest point. It's
base varies in wild h from 800
to $50 feet. II creates an arti-
fetal lake Of some "a square
miles and stores UP to / billion
cubic meters Of water.
The cost Of the big project,
pushed by the Venezuela minis
tries Of agriculture and public
work. tops $50 million.
1t is designed to irrigate 470
square miles of rich land dur
ing the dry season and give a
tremendous boost to the rails
ing Of beef cattle.
Venezuelan workers are
building modern homes, cor
rails. outbuildings. water and
sanitary installations, and 900
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1957-08-14

miles Of canals that will dis
tribute the dams water over
100000 acres Of land. All of
this work is to be completed by
December 2.
Eighty per cent Of the vast
lands to be irrigated by the
dam will be used exclusively
for the grazing of cattle. The
aim is to produce MOI. and
better sect and thereby put a
further de,.t in this nations
imports. most Of which come
from the United States. Ten
per cent Of all Venezuelan inn
ports at present are foodStuffs.
The rest of the watered
plains area is for crops Of rice,
corn, beans and other vegeta-
bles. Venezuelans settling here
viii have farms Of 400 to 500
acres each.
The government predicts
farm and cattle production in
Guarico State will be increased
$40 per cent once the project
is in full operation.

lives-by the State Labor De-
partment.
Hiring Of older workers is
Sound business" says Isador
Lubin. New York's industrial
commissioner, and it's fast
becoming Q business necessity. +"
For, by 1865, the most de-
sirable employes-thoSe in the
25-to-44-year-old group-just
won't be as numerous. since to
have reached that age in nine
years means to have been born
during the depression-when
not many people were having
babies.
Workers Worth Cited
Moreover. backing its advice
with solid statistics. the labor
Department gives -Junding
'yesl" to tie question: is the
older worker wcrtk hiring?
In its Industrial Bulletin"
q standard fixture in personnel
Offices and union research de-
partments throughout the
State, the department explodes
Q variety of myths" about the
oldster at work.
These legends hold that after
80 or more years of work. a
man or woman is less produce
tive, less skilled. stays home too
often, is accident-prone and
will not remain on the job long
enough to justify the expense of
hiring and adjusting him to
the plant. Other obstacles to
employing older people. en-
ployers believe. are increased
pension and group insurance
costs and the older fellows
alleged inability to get along
with the youngster-both his
supervisor and the man at the
next bench.
Better Producers
Not so, says the "Industria!
Bulletin" Productivity studies
by the National Association of
Manufacturers. the United
States Labor Department and
the University of Illinois find
the 60-plus employee as good OF
better than his younger COL
league 80 to SO per cent of the
time. The NAM, after polling
5000 employers whose payrolls
included 2.5 million people. re-
ported that only Z per cent Of
the respondents thought the
older worker produced less.
The mature worker is no Job
hopper. has a 20 per cent bet
ter attendance record and a
better safety score than his
younger shopmate. However.
an unpublished study by New
York State indicates that an
accident does keep the older
man of the job longer.
