Scientists Upset Theories
About Particles in Space

PALO ALTO, Calf, June II
(P). - Two Stanford University
scientists reported yesterday a
discovery that upsets current
ideas about the area and num-
Der of electrified particles en-
veloping the earth.
The particles exist ss far as
5000 miles out in space instead
of the mere 200 miles or SO
heretofore reported. Their num-
bers are tremendously greater
than scientists previously had
calculated.
This means that the suns
radiation to the earth and the
particles of matter it constantly
throws at the earth are SUBJ
jected to a much heavier
screening effect than formerly
calculated.
The findings contradict long
held theories for explaining
magnetic storms and the North
ern Lights. They deepen the
mystery of how disturbances or
the sun may affect the earth's
weather.
They point to a possible new
way of utilizing outer space fol

cloud Of particles Prof. Robert
A. Helliwell of Stanford's radio
propagation laboratory sent an
associate. Ernst Gehrels. to the
southernmost tip of South
America with a radio receiving
set.
There Mr.. Gehrels listened to
and recorded signals from the
Nays powerful transmitter at
Annapolis. Md.
Mr.. Gehrels received the sig
nails almost simultaneously with
their transmission as they went
into the air and were bent back
earthward by the lower layers
OF the sea of electrified particles

200 miles up. This Is the con-
ventional way Of getting long
distance radio reception.
But Mr.. Gehrels also listened
for a ghost signal" As the
scientists suspected. this was a
repetition of the original signal,
and it arrived three-quarters of
a second behind the conven-
tional one.
This could only mean. DR..
Helliwell said, that the signal
had gone thousands of miles
away from the earth and then
had been curved back by some
thing in what had been pre-
sumed to be empty space.

new problem for the artificial
satellite program because the
artificial moons will have to
contend with more matter in
space than scientists have cal
culated.

Admiration for Gen. Lee
Reoffirmed by President

burg battlefield Sunday. The two
modern generals agreed that
both Gen. Lee and his Union OPP
ponent. Gen. George @. Meade
should have been sacked" fol
the way they fought that battle
Mr.. Eisenhower tempered his
hindsight criticism at the time
by telling Lord Montgomery that
I"if some Of the generals who
fought here we're alive today
they probably would have criti-
cised the way we fought" In
World War II.
Asked today II looking back
on the last war he could see any
major thing the allies should
have done differently, the Pres
ident said that OF course he
could.
But he added that II was aw-
fully hard to quarrel with VIC
tory and hard to prove that any
other plan would have worked
as we'll for the allies.

the four top men in American
history.
He said these pictures are OF
Benjamin Franklin, George

port what the country voted for
in November.
Told that Democrats in Con-
gress seem to be supporting his
program more than most Re-
Ipublicans there, he was asked
if he expected to punish the Re-
publicans not going along with
him or reward those who do
He replied firmly that he does
not think it is the function Of
any President to punish anybody
for voting what he believes.
Then a reporter asked If he
planned to try to work more for
his programs in Congress
through such Republicans as
Senators Case Of New Jersey and
Javits Of New York who are
supporting them.
Works Through Leadership
Mr.. Eisenhower replied that
he does not see how it is possible
for him to work with Republic
cans in Congress as a group ex-
cept through their elected lead
ership.
Thus he made it clear that he
expects to continue working with

Knowland and House Republic
can Leader Martin, who have
been in the forefront of those
Republicans who have urged
greater budget reductions than
the President believes are pos
sible without risking the safety
of the country or cutting our
needed domestic programs.
Told that some Republicans
think he has moved to the left"
since his first election in 1852,
Mr.. Eisenhower said FAR from
it." He added that if anything,
he has become more conserva-
tive Then he went into his
exposition of how modern re-
publicanism" should try to meet
needs of the people while fol-
lowing sound fiscal policies to
preserve the value of the dollar.
Discusses Rights" Bill
He told another questioner
that he does not believe his
administrations support of a
civil rights bill in Congress will
"in the long run" hurt chances
of Republicans winning more
congressional seats in the South.
He added that he based this be-
lief on the fact that the pending
civil rights bill is "a very mod
crate thing"
The President had a special
good word for Malcolm S.
Forbes. Republican candidate
for Governor of New Jersey.
Asked if he expected to do any
thing in Mr.. Forbes behalf, MIR.
Eisenhower said the point had
not come up. but said he thought
Mr.. Forbes was "a fine gentle
man." and it would seem natural
to say a word on his behalf II

BY GARRETT ID. HORNER


President Eisenhower empha.
sized today that he believes the
Republican Party will be sunk
in the long run unless it fol-
lows his concept of modern Re-
publicanism."
The President rejected at a
news conference any idea OF
Furnishing Republicans in Con-
gress who do not agree with him
He said he will depend on try
ing to influence people in "quiet
conversation" and occasional
factual television-radio speeches
to the country to try to win sup
port for his programs.
Mr.. Eisenhower's warning to
the G. o. P. right wing that its
road leads to oblivion for the
party came during a news con-
ference devoted largely to a de-
Tense Of his budget imperiled by
the congressional economy drive
more Conservative"
At the same time, he said he
thinks he is more conservative
now than he was in 1852.
Emphasizing that he is against
any trif1ing with the Nations
financial integrity. the President
said he has the same concern
as others about the high cost
OF Federal Government.
He said he believes all Govern
ment programs must be studied
carefully to make sure too big
a load is not being taken on.
But along with this, the Presi-
dent said the Federal Govern
ment cannot shut its eyes to
such problems as assisting the
aged and disabled.
Any political group that does
Tot study the needs of the
people and try to meet them
will in the long run be sunk "
he added.
Seeks Sound Fiscal Policy
The President said he thought
this summed up his conception
of modern Republican"
He said it means adhering to
sound basic principles in gov
ernment operations. including a
balanced budget. He said new
problems should be met head on
and an effort should be made to
solve them with a clear compre-
hension of what the people
need.
Mr.. Eisenhower was reminded
that he interpreted his second
term election victory last No
vember as a mandate from the
people to carry forward a pro-
gram Of modern Republican
ism" and was asked if he
thought the will of the people
was being Haunted in Congress,
| He remarked that it is too
much to expect everybody to
understand all at once all that

ophy He said as people are in

each of us, our communities and
States. make upon the Federal

Defense Costs
Turn with me now to the larg-
est item in the budget-the de-
Tense Of our country. There is
where most Of your tax dollars
60.
AS we survey the world in
which we live, the first great
concern Of all Of us is to make
sure Of the defense Of our homes,
our country and our way Of life
The Communists have again and
again announced their purpose
OF promoting revolution and of
commanding the world by what
ever means. 1t is important, and
surely prudent. for us to UNDER
stand the military strength the
Communists maintain to help
them achieve their purposes.
What is that strength today?
Without counting the Chinese
Communists. the Soviets have
the worlds largest army. They
have many times the number Of
submarines that Germany had
when World War II began. They
have atomic weapons and
rockets and missiles. They have
a large and growing air strength.
They are competent in military
technology and research. And
all this is directed by a despo-
tism which is fully capable Of
the supreme folly-that OF un-
leashing these powerful forces
if it should ever believe that it
could-without destroying it.
self-succeed in destroying the
free world.
One important purpose OF our
military arrangements is to
convince others that If they start
q general conflict they cannot
escape their own destruction.
$4l Billion for Defense
AS have said, the national
defense item is by far the largest
in our budget. but let US see Just
how large it is. The estimate
just for our own military forces
and our atomic development,
together with a small amount
for stockpiling critical and stra-
tegic materials. is almost SAL
billion. This does not. by any
means. equal the full amount
first recommended by our uni
formed services. They wanted
some $40 billion more.
But I earnestly believe that
this defense budget represents,
in today's world. the proper
dividing line between national
danger on the one hand and ex-
cessive expenditures on the
other. II it is materially cut,
believe the country would be
taking a fearful gamble. For my
self. ! have seen unwise military
cuts before. have seen their
terrible consequences. I am de-
termined to do all can to see
that we do not follow that fool
hardy road again.
Defense Is Not Cheap
Even after what World War
II should have taught us about
unpreparedness. our arm d
forces became so starved and
depleted that by 1850 we had to
withdraw our military strength
from South Korea. That area
was then declared to be outside
our defense perimeter. Tn e
tragic results of that woeful
weakness are too close to us to
need recounting now to the
families of America. But I say
to you that / shall never agree
to any program of false eco
nomy that would permit us to
incur again that kind OF risk to
