Draw Span
Bon Pressed

The Senate Public Works Com
mittee today agreed to act on
the move by Senator Gore, Dem
ocrat OF, Tennessee. to eliminate
the use of drawn spans on Poto-
mac River bridges.
After hearing the Senator in
executive session outline his OBJ
jections to draw spans, Chair
man Chavez, Democrat of New
Mexico, announced he would call
upon the District Commissioners
and the Bureau of Public Roads
to investigate the possibility of
fixed spans and report to the
committee soon.
Senator Gore said he wants
also to have a report to stress
the problem as to whether. in the
case of the authorized Constitu-
ton avenue bridge, a tunnel
would be better.
The Senator said he could see
the advantage of a tunnel be-
cause it would be safer than a
bridge and not subject to much
damage during an attack on the
city. -
The controversy between
hackers of a bridge and a tun-
mel for the Constitution avenue
site has been waged for a long
time. Pending legislation au-
thorizes bridge, but Senator
Gore blocked an amendment to
the bridge bill at the close of last
session of the 84th Congress be-
cause it had a draw span.

AS for the long range aspect,
Mr.. Eisenhower said Federal,

must join to develop better use

use in irrigation projects; to
achieve maximum conservation

about relief for National Airport
by requiring private passenger
and cargo planes to land at
Friendship International Airport,
near Baltimore, instead of. at
National. Chairman Holland
reminded Mr.. Rothschild and
Mr.. Pyle that the appropriations
committee last summer insist
emily urged the Commerce De-
.partment to proceed in that di-
rection.
This brought an answer that
the CAA permits this to be done
but had not ordered it. The
Florida Senator reminded wit
nesses that business and private
planes are not permitted to land
at the main commercial airfleld
at Miami but must go on to an
other field in the general area.
Mr.. Pyle cited figures to show
that this type of traffic at Ma
tional was not of a significant
amount and he told Senator
Stennis, Democrat of Mississippi,
that the CAA had not ordered
the "non-skeds" to land else
where because we do not feel
at this moment that such drastic
action is necessary"
Earlier, in discussing the
mounting traffic at National,
CAA officials insisted that traffic
congestion at National was not
dangerous" because the CAA
would not permit it.
In this connection Mr.. Roths-
child said that passengers
handled on flights at National
now amount to AZ million a year
and that if the curve continues
to rise it was expected to go to
between six and seven million
by 1860. He suggested this would

would prove the parity, theory
wrong through actual tests !
Prof. C. S. WI of Columbia, a
Chinese woman, performed one
series Of experiments in CO.
operation with Drs. Ernest Am
bier. r. w. Hayward, D. D
Hopes and r. P. Hudson of the
National Bureau Of Standards.
They cooled down radioactive
cobalt-60 to a temperature of .0l
degrees above absolute zero. or
about 459 degrees below zero
Fahrenheit. 1T slowed down
movement of the atoms.
BY applying magnetic field,
the spinning cobalt nuclei disin-
tegrated and gave off electrons
in sufficiently greater number
in one direction to show 1.-The
favoring of a direction associated
with the spin." The parity law
held that the electrons would be
fired off in helter- skelter fashion.
The particles, the scientists ex-
planned, had an intrinsic
"handedness' quality. right or
left, like a screw.
Three Others Make Test
Meanwhile, three other pro-
fessors. Drs. Leon Lederman,
Richard L. Farwin and Marcel
Weinrich, conducted a second
series Of, tests using Columbia
University's 1886 million-volt
cyclotron at Nevis. NY,
The experiments involved the
disintegration of a "pi-meson, "
a particle now known to be prin-
cipally responsible for the force
that holds nuclei together, into a
"mu-meson" and a ''neutrino."
The scientists discovered that
the mu-meson always spins in
the direction of its motion, adj
vancing like a screw and thus
demonstrating that it has innate
"handedness."
DR.. I. I. Rabi of Columbia, a
Nobel Prize winner for his work
in physics, said 1t may be several
years before a new set of scien-
tific rules are set up on the basis
OF the new achievement.
The discovery was announced

ence called by the university.
