real; today, thanks to pharmaceu- tical research, penicillin injections are quite painless and the new peni- cillin "pills" do not hurt at all.
 A prime target has been the search for substances to speed up the curative work of the broad range antibiotics. To be most effec- tive, these drugs must reach the blood-stream quickly. One of the largest antibiotic research labora- tories in the country has found that a substance called glucosamine dou- bles the amount of Tetracyn carried to the blood in the first two hours after swallowing. This antibiotic en- hanced with glucosamine, called Cosa-Tetracyn, starts it's work more quickly and does it better.
 Oddly enough, glucosamine IS not a test tube creation but fairly sim pie substance related to sugar. It is found throughout nature, in the human body most abundantly in mothers milk III and, curiously, in lobster shells. As far as anyone knows it was part of the planet Earth long before man. Modern chemistry's contribution is in iso- lating and combining it with other substances to serve mankind better.

Japan Blames U. s. For Increased Radioactivity In North Pacific

TOKYO, R-A Japanese scien- tist said today almost all the western half of the North Pacific has been contaminated by radio active fallout from the big U. S. H-bomb blast at Bikini in 1854
 Speaking for three-scientist team, Prof. Yasuo Miyake of Tokyo's University of Education told the Japan Oceanography So- ciety it was estimated waters in the area west of Hawaii to Japan show level of man-made radio active contamination about 10 times that of the Atlantic Ocean.
 Miyake claimed the radioactiv- ity is showing no sign of decreas- ing with the passage of time

SCIENCE IN YOUR LIFE
New Worlds To Conquer

The early days of antibiotics were much like ancient voyages of ex- ploration and discovery. But instead of new lands, old diseases were con- quered with these exciting drugs. Blood poisoning, pneumonia, tuber- culosis, scarlet fever and venereal disease were quickly brought under control. Today, none of these dis eases carries the death sentence so common in the centuries preceding the age of antibiotics.
 Scientists, however, are rarely

Conservation Groups Seek Protection For Alaskan Forests

WASHINGTON LR - Repre- sentatives of some of the nations largest conservation organizations have asked Congress to increase appropriations for combating forest fires in Alaska.
 They cited statistics showing that Alaska last year had its worst fire season of recent years, with fires sweeping over five million acres-an area larger than Massachusetts. Tn normal years, they said, the toll in Alaska covers one to two million acres. Their pleas were made Monday to a Senate Appropriations Sub committee.
 Kennth B. Pomerey, chief for ester for the American Forestry Assn, told the subcommittee the Bureau of Land Management has done "a Herculean job with the meager facilities available," but added: "the bare facts are that only one-quarter cent an acre is being budgeted for fire protec- tion on 225 million acres of pub lie land in Alaska. Yet informed sources indicate a minimum of one cent per acre is needed"
 Pomeroy said his organization recommends adequate fire pro- lection for all public lands, but said if all of Alaska cannot have the basic protection, the lands should be zoned in order ot value and adequate protection given the priority areas.
 Stewart M. Brandborg, assist ant conservation director for the National Wildlife Federation, saic the bureau should have regular appropriation of $6OO,000 a year for it's Alaska fire program. The budget for the year beginning July Il proposes $375,000.
 Brandborg said "In Alaska to- day, we are sacrificing valuable resources to forest fires just as we did 50 years ago here in the Uni ted States. The main difference is that today, with our swelling populations, we can see that within a few years we will place heavy demands upon these lands Yet we have done nothing tc stop this waste"

Alaskan Worker Sues For Permanent and
 Temporary Disability

WASHINGTON, R - Can an injured worker rightly claim compensation for both permanent and temporary disability arising out of a single accident under terms of the Alaska Workmen's s Compensation Act?
 This issue came before the United States Supreme Court Tuesday on a case brought by Carl E. Jenkins of Anchorage and the Alaska Industrial Board against the Chugach Electric Assn. and the General Accident, Fire and Life Insurance Corp. Ltd.
 Jenkins lost his left arm, right leg and four toes of his left foot when he came in contact with a high voltage wire while work ing for Chugach in 1950
 He subsequently, was paid $3,645 over a 38-week period un- der the temporary disability pro- vision of the Alaska Act. This amount was deducted later, how ever, from an $8,1OO lump sum payment for total and perma- nent disability arising out of loss of the leg and arm.
 Jenkins then applied to the board for continuing benefits, claiming temporary disability on grounds his left foot had not healed.
 He received a favorable ruling from the board chairman only to have it reversed in large part by the full board. In January, 1854, however, the board reversed itself and held Jenkins was en- titled to temporary compensation at the rate of $94.50 a week from October, 1950-the date of his final amputation.
 This in turn was reversed in district court when the utility and the insurance company appealed the ruling. The court, in a find ing later upheld by the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, said an award for temporary total dis ability could not be granted for physical disability arising from the same accident in which a scheduled, lump sum award for total permanent disability had been granted

ABOUT A DISHPAN

The following editorial is from the Cleveland, Ohio, Plain Dealer:
 Get load of this, folks The government has got out a phamphlet on Tools for Food Prepara- lion and Dishwashing. And it contains infor- mation we'll bet you never thought of such as Dish pans should be large enough to hold the dishes but not too large for the sink
 Well, what do you know? For years we had a dishpan that wouldn't hold the dinner plates and when we got new one it was too big to fit in the sink Now thanks to this advice from Washington, we'll go right out and buy an in-betWeen-size dish pan and see how that works. We never would have solved the problem ourselves And when it comes time to pay our income tax next year we'll be espe- cia ly grateful the bureaucrat who thought this up

THE BEAR DANCES

From Washington comes steady stream of gulf and gush about how charming, how well-dressed and how overwhelmingly hospitable the Mikhail Men shkovs, lately to occupy the previously forbid ding Red embassy and to soften up the silly Ameri- for the next Yalta. And the fact that they getting such big assist from newsnnen society re- porters and commentators who presumed to have newspaper experience may indicate what troupers these Menshikovs are
 In spite of MT. Menshikov's spell-binding efforts to make forget the Red enslaveent of half of the world the Soviet record of total decetfuness in vio lang less than 26 out of 26 agreements with the US since 1917, it's adoption of wholesale murder as instrument of policy and most recently the wanton butchery in Hungary another summit meeting looks more promising than it ever did
 If the Reds really want to play ball, all they have to do to implement disarmament is to accept Presi- dent Esenhowers aerial inspection plan and get busy fulfilling their 1855 Geneva agreement on German reunifcaton. And until both of these developments put in motion there would seem to be nothing to say--at the summit elsewhere.
 In the meantime, let those who have the stomach for it enjoy their free caviar at the Embassy-and forget Mr. Krushchev's boast: We will bury you :"
