SoIutes Chief Murray

The Firemen'S Association.
District of Columbia, Local SO,
IAFF, has gone on record
unanimously supporting Met
ropolitan Police Chief Robert
v. Murray in the fortnight
stand he has taken in de-
nouncing the recent attempt
by the leader of a minority
pressure group to cast shad-
ows of doubt over his admin
istration of Washington's out
standing Metropolitan Police
Department.
We commend Chief Murray,
his chief officers, and every
man Of his Department for
their courage and determine
ton to stand firm and i'm
penetrable in the face of "rab-
ble-rouSers" who, under the
guise of championing the
rights of minoritieS, insidi-
ously spread seeds of hate, dis
trust, and even lawlessneSs.
This reckless and irresponsi-
BILE ranting echoes an all-too-
familiar pattern-one used by
those of doubtful Royalties. We
can only await the day to be
defended against the likes of
these sewers" who would di-
vide and destroy.
We hold that the District of
Columbia Police Chief and the
Metropolitan Police Depart
ment are second to none in
the United States on any and
all bases of comparison. We
have long admired and re-
spected Chief Murray's fearless
and capable leadership which
has brought the Metropolitan
Police Department to its pres
ent unequalled place among
departments of the country.
The Firemen's Association
salutes Police Chief Murray
and the Metropolitan Police
Department, confident that
they will continue the same
sterling service to the City of
Washington as they have given
in the past.

President, d. c. Firemen's
Association.

The Lido Civic Club, an or
ganization, which for more
than 25 years has been actively
engaged in the civic welfare of
the District of Columbia.
wishes to take this opportunity
to express its views concern
ing the recent criticism of Po-
lice Chief Robert v. Murray.
Several years ago our or
ganization honored Chief Muir
ray by selecting him as its
Man of the Year" This Sc
lection was made only after
serious consideration and with
full knowledge of Chief Muir
rays background. experience,
and ability to handle a most
difficult job in an unbiased
manner.
His continued good work has
increased our admiration for
him and it is respectfully sug-
gested that any accusations
directed against Chief Murray
be considered in the light of
his achievements and conduct
in Office while making our po-
lice department one Of the
best in the country.

President, Lido Civic Club.

There are young and spend-

Tnere are young ana spend
thrift stars.
A lot Of them have been
born during the million years
of mans existence on earth
and man probably will outlive
them for already they are dy-
ing.
I'VE have good evidence"
says DR.. Allen Sandage, Car
negie Institution of Washing
ton astronomer, "of the crea-
ton Of stars within very re-
cent geological times. It is a.
remarkable fact that these
very young and highly lumi-
nous stars are found only in
regions of our galaxy contain
ing large amounts of free cos
mic dust and gas. This strongly
suggests that the birthplace
of new stars is In the dust
clouds between the older stars
and that this dust is the ma
terial out of which the stars
condense." .
Astrono OIL ers now have
reached the point. pr. Sandage
says, where they can present
a fairly good speculative pic
ture of how o star is born.
Presumably when the density
of a cloud of gas becomes large
enough. a large segment of the
cloud becomes gravitationally
unstable and begins to coll
lapse under its own weight.
The packing of matter into
smaller and smaller space due
to slow collapse releases en-
ergy from the gravitational
field and the gas and dust
become hot.
NucIear Reactions
AS the prestar condenses
more and more, the central
temperature goes higher and
higher until, at the stage
where the volume of the orig
inal cloud has sunk about
10000, 000, 900, 900, 900 times,
the temperature and density
are large enough for collisions
between hydrogen atoms to
begin. These collisions lead to
nuclear reactions. of the same
type as in the hydrogen bomb.
At this stage, however. an
explosion does not take place
because a new star has the
unfailing ability to adjust itself
to release this energy grad
ually, contrary to the condi-
tions inside a bomb. When
nuclear reactions begin the
contraction of the original
dust cloud stops and a stable
star is born.
such a stable star" says
DR.. Sandage, lis one of ma
lures most magnificent inven-
items. The large amount OF
matter within a star is in
equilibrium at every point. 1t

West Germony's Revival

This is a capsule Of the way
it is in all of West Germany.
For example. nearly 21a mil

The cathedral is their center

COLOGNE, Germany. July
24.-The building crane mas be-
come the symbol of postwar
Germany.
Wherever you go in West
Germany - Dusseldorf. Bonn.
Cologne. Munich. Hanover.
Hamburg, Berlin. Frankfurt
and the lesser communities
the building crane is never far
from sight.
It is the symbol Of the dig
cling out of destruction. It
tides and removes mountains
of rubble, helps erect schools
and hotels and apartment
houses and parking lots and
even American type sky
scrapers.
The skyscrapers themselves
are a symbol perhaps. Of Ger
man faith and hope that the
bombs will never fall again.
Story Of Hotel Owner
They tell a story in Frank
furt about the man who came
back after the war to his once
lucrative hotel. the Savoy. just
near the railroad depot.
He found only a heap Of
rubble. Like Hitler's Reich it
was no more.
So he gathered together
what scrap there was and. with
his own hands, he built a one
room apartment and rented 1t
out. With the money and his
hands again he built another
room and rented 1t out. And
so on.
When the currency reform
and American dollar aid came
in 1949, the bankers we're
happy to lend money to so
good a risk. He rebuilt the
Savoy and it thrives.
Few cities in Germany were
so thoroughly pulverized as
Cologne. Even its gorgeous
cathedral, deliberately spared,
suffered 40 per cent destruc-
ton. The city itself was 10
per cent destroyed.
Extended Tour
A reporter, in Germany on
a tour Of North Atlantic Treaty
country newspaperman. ex-
tended his stay to talk here
with the rebuilders.
Edward Pecks, a courteous
and precise man, is in charge.
One Of his top aides is an Eng
disappearing redhead. Kurt
Jatho, an engineer who does
the planning for the heart of
Cologne. Altogether. Mr.. Pecks
has about so persons on his
staff.
These are the startling sta
tistics they produced IL years
after the wars end:
Prewar population of 76s.-
352 reduced to 10000 in March
l945 and today standing at
1872, 729-a IS per cent re-
covery.
Prewar dwellings of 2.524.-
600 reduced to $50. 600 and now

varied. One diet, for example,
contained 8 per cent casein. de-
rived from milk: another 20 per
cent, and another a mixture
|of various amino acids. The
mice grew about as well on one
diet as another, but they died
of tuberculosis and other in
fections at widely varying
rates.
Weight Gain No Index
Mice receiving the amino acid
mixture were much more re-
sistant than those receiving
casein alone. They we're even
more resistant than those re-
|reiving 20 per cent casein. Yet
they did not grow as rapidly.
This confirms, DR.. Dubois said,
that weight gain is no index to
disease resistance and indicates
that certain amino acids, as yet
unidentified. play an important
part In warding of disease.
IF these results care appli-

children" DR.. Dubois said,
they may serve as guides for
determining the particular
amino acid mixtures best suited
