Army toLeave

Army Secretary Brucker an
nounced today that all Regular
Army personnel would be with
drawn from duty at Central
High School in Little Rock,
Ark. on November 81.
The Secretary pointed out
that continuing stability" at
Little Rock was the basis for
the decision to send the last
elements of the l01st Airborne
Division to their heme station,
Fort Campbell. KY.
There are 225 troops of the
l01st Division now stationed
at Little Rock. There are ap-
proximately 900 Federalized
National Guardsmen on duty
there.
Whether the move will bring
any real settlement of the stu
alton involving infringement OF
a Federal court order for racial
indignation at Little Rocks
Central High Scnool remained
uncertain.
The plan calls for selected
members of an Arkansas Ma
tional Guard unit to take over
the patrol work at the school.
They would be under Mai. Gen.
Edwin Walker. the Army COM
mander of the Arkansas Mill
tary District.
From all outward appear
ances today the scheduled
change was being awaited with
comparatively little comment
and no signs of additional con-
troversy in Little Rock. Gov.
Orval Faubus. resting at Hot
Springs, Ark, after q minor
illness, was unavailable to
newsmen. An aide said there

was that Trujillo wanted some

Mr.. Cartwright's present job
as consul general at the United
States Embassy in Mexico City.
CONFIDENTIAL Basis
Mr.. Woodcocke said he was
told by Mr.. Frank that the at
torney had occasion to meet
Dominican officials" through
contacts in the republic and
advised us he would give us
information on q strictly con-
fidential basis about Dominic
can affairs. A
But the agent said he knew
of no information ito my
knowledge" that Mr.. Frank
ever supplied to the FBI.
Earlier. District Court Judge
James r. Kirkland ruled that
reports Of an FBI agent be
turned over for examination by
defense attorneys in the case.
The Judge made the ruling
under the terms of the Jencks
law after Mr.. Carey. asked to
see reports made on interviews
with Mr.. Frank by FBI Agent
Fred Woodcocke in September
and December Of 1856 and last
January.
The Judge ruled, however,
that only those parts Of the
reports can be released which
relate directly to the interviews
To Make Deletions
Two reports have already
been turned over. and several
others will be given to Mr..

Anyone can make up a the

The scientist knows he will get
his fingers burned if he allows
wishful thinking on emotions
to influence his Judgment Of
the tests results.
If the results look sound, the
scientist publishes them for his
colleagues to see-and pick
flaws.
This is the scientific method
of research to coax secrets

Science grows by theories,
trying to establish sound guild

only so long as they jibe with

they are amended, expanded, or
abandoned.
Scientist Seeks Facts
The scientist is interested in
learning new facts, developing
new ideas or - as an engineer
making them practically

Industry, government, BUSH

bah from there. The scientist
can find himself highly praised

for helping make an A-bomb.
The scientist has very valid,
useful opinions for public in

own speciality.
But for all his objectivity in
that field, he can be quite at
sea in opinions about banking,
politics, crime, rock-n-roll, I'M
less he's taken the trouble to
become well informed on those
subjects, and doesn't let per-
sonal emotions and prejudices

He becomes a scientist be-

in a variety Of ways.
