Power 10 Scar,
Secret Risk
Data Is Urged

Legislators trying to balance
individual constitutional rights
and national security looked
with interest today at a sug-
geStion for safeguarding both
requirements by an impartial
CONFORMATION" Of unidentified
accuseSS.
But the proposal by Judge
Samuel H. Hefstadter Of the
New York State Supreme Court
repeatedly is regarded by some
congressional Judiciary Com
mittee experts as more Of a
novelty than as a measure likely
to be adopted at this time.
The plan outlined by Judge
Hofstadter in a New York Law
Journal article would apply to
security cases where charges
against a person are contained
in secret information. Con-
gresS and the courts are wres-
Ting with the problem Of giving
a person every opportunity to
confront accusers but at the
same time protect national Sc
curity.
Instead Of permitting a de-
PENDANT or a defense lawyer to
examine such material in detail
and question the accuser, the
Hofstadter plan would set up
a panel Of attorneys cleared for
security and especially quail
fed in the field of civil and
constitutional rights.
A lawyer chosen by the court
from the panel would privately
inspect the information and
cross-examine the informant.
He then would give the sub
stance of such evidence to the
defendant or defense lawyer
without revealing security mat
tiers or necessarily identifying
the accuser.
Judge Hofstadter's article, as
interpreted by some members
and staff experts Of the House
Judiciary Committee, would
have the outside lawyer COM
bine features Of a public ad-
vocate and a legal go-between
in an area not yet clearly de-
fined by the Supreme Court.
Although the high court has
narrowed the field. 1t has not
declared explicitly that a per-
son has a right to challenge
and croSs-examine all infor-
nation and informants in Sc
curity cases.

the drain by American cellu-
lose and paper pulp makers.
His address came at the open
ing of the society's 1880 ma
tional meeting. About 5000
chemists and chemical engi-
neers are attending the con-
vention.
Discussing the new field of
silvichemistry-the study Of
complex organic materials de-
rived from treeS-Mr. Brown
foresaw the development of
animal feeds from Sulphite
wastes. Billions Of gallons Of
these wastes. he said. are pro-
duced each year. They con-
ceivably could be proceSsed to
turn out about 100000 tons of
nourishing foods annually, Mr..
Brown added.
Word With Dollar Sign
An economist rather than a
chemist, Mr.. Brown took coldly
buSineSSlike attitude toward
the use of the word "silvi-
chemical" to denote waste
products" and "by-products."
1.-THE word was coined as a
replacement for such terms"

system of the plant. Inside the
plants veins" the fungi pro-
duce a substance that attacks
pectin. a Telling material found
in the vessel walls.
ClOt-Like Masses
When the pectin gets into the
vascular stream. DR.. Stahmann
said, it forms gelatin like
masses that plug the vessels,
Just as blood clots cause heart
attacks or strokes in humans.
Tomatoes, cotton and other
plants are susceptible to the
fungus disease, DR.. Stahmann
said. Though no cure is known.
the biochemist said some
strains Of fungus resistant
plants have been discovered.
Selective breeding is seen as the
answer.

craft that will fly without fuel
through the upper atmosphere,
propelled by jets operating on
the chemical energy Of the
rarefied air itself.
These aircraft Of day-after-
tomorrow were envisioned by s.
T. Demetriades and Carl B.
Kretschmer, researchers for the
Aerojet-General Corp.
Though vacuum like condi-
tons at attitudes Of so miles or
so indicate that any aircraft
fueled from the surrounding
atmosphere would have to be
almost weightless. the scientists
said further developments
might make large craft pos
Sible.
Principle Familiar
The principle by which the
craft would operate is we'll
known to chemists. When
single atoms Of oxygen combine
to make bi-atomic molecules Of
oxygen gas. considerable energy
is given on. This energy could
be used to propel the ships at
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1958-04-14

speeds as high as 5000 miles
an hour.
The most likely initial use OF
such craft. the scientists said
would be "for such purposes as
q reflector for television OF
microwave signals. weather sur
veillance or safety stations"
Later. they added. big craft
operating at $4,000 miles an
hour might be developed. These
would be useful as "propellant
factories" capturing oxygen
atoms Ito be used later as q
rocket propellant."

are willing to help their stu
dents.
However" Francine writes.
most students nowadays seem
to take the line of least resist
ance. The high school boy or
girl would rather take shop or
home economics instead Of
Latin or advanced math. They
ask for knowledge to be admin
istered on a silver platter with
little or no work for the re-
ceiver.
when schools reach this
point" she adds. they cease to
educate: They give a four-year
memory course.
'It's true that today most
classes are overcrowded and in
10 years conditions promise to
be worse, but to someone who
really wants to learn, the door
is wide open. However, a teach
er cannot put the knowledge
into our heads. Learning re-
quires some effort on the part
of those who wish an educa-
ton.
Instead of downing today's
teachers and schools" Fran
cine concludes, why don't we
start looking for the root of the
problem, the student? When
we have improved student atti-
tudes, we shall have improved
our educational system"
Evening star., 1958-05-11

dent remarks in TEEN will be
helpful because they point up
areas in which we ought to
improve" DR.. Hansen added:
For example, apparently
there is an inadequate amount
of counseling available to stu
dents in high school. This re-
suits chiefly because there is
approximately one counselor
to seven or eight hundred stu
dents. The ideal pupil load for
a counselor is said to be in the
neighborhood of 300.
"AS to examinations" he
said, teachers do give eXami-
nations periodically throughout
