Mr. Barton heads the Funds cam

thousands of volunteers who will
work in more than 40 cities a.
cross the country. The 1859 cam

cent Of their current operating
budgets. Last years campaign

WASHINGTON, D. Can a.
greement was signed last week by
which the United States will lend
up to So million to the Republic
Of Liberia to assist in the reno
walton, repnir and extension of
Recommendations facilities in
Liberia.
The loan makes possible the in
stallation of telephone, telegraph,
teletype and other communica-
tons links between the capital
city of Monrovia, and county and
provincial centers 1t also pro-
vides for telephone service be-
tween the interconnectd COM
munities.
With rich natural resources, Lii
IBERIA is more dependent on ade-
quate communications services.
The country's present facilities
include four separate systems
which are not interconnected.
Three of these are private COM
pany services, and the other a
government system in Monrovia.
A coordinoted and expanded
Accommodation system to
meet the country's basic needs is
contemplated. Planned also are
improved and expanded interna-
tional radiotelegraph and radio
telephone facilities, and possibly
rrdio aids to aerial navigation.
Signing the agreement for Lii
IBERIA was Ambassador to the
United States George A. Padmore.
Dempster Mcintosh, managing di-
rector of the Development Loan
Fund, signed for the United
States.
Speaking to Ambassador Pad
more during the thanksgiving
ceremony, Mr.. Mcintosh said:
q. Your presence in person
on this occasion is further evil
dence Of the Importance which
both your government and mine
place upon this project.
Adequate telephone and other
communications systems are a
basic necessity to a country on
the verge, a yours is, of indus

made.
When he reeled in Campbell
found he had hooked a "blue"
weighing IA pounds, eight
ounces. The crafts skipper,
Capt. Earl Parker, radioed back
the news and when the boat
docked a large crowd was on
hand to see the catch.
Last years biggest blue in the
Virginia Salt Water Fishing
Tournament weighed Is pounds,
IA ounces. 1t was caught BY
Rick Amory III, of Hampton,

Campbell was formally mott

tournament director, that he will
receive a citation at the tourna-

fish is eligible for an honor
badge for the national Field &
Stream Contest.
If no heavier blue is caught
during the remainder of the Vir-
ginia tournament, Campbell
will be awarded the Virginia
Beach Sports Marina Bluefish
Trophy for the biggest catch
of the year.
The three Rockville men
caught about 60 fish during the
outing including blue, mackerel

weighed Is pounds.

Large A-Sub
Fleet Is Urged
By Rickover
b the A.soeIated Pre.s

Vice Admiral Lyman Rick
over urges immediate construc-
ton Of a fleet Of nuclear-
powered killer submarines to
meet q threat Of missile attacks
by Russia's large underwater
feet.
Admiral Rickover. who was
largely responsible for this
country's first atomic submar-
inc, said Soviet submarines
could hit most Atlantic Coast
cities and industrial areas with
either atomic or hydrogen
bombs carried by missiles.
I'VE should build a consider
ably larger number of attack
submarines - nuclear powered
attack submarines which are
capable Of destroying Russian
submarines" he said in an in
terview yesterday with Senator
Long, Democrat Of Louisiana.
The talk was filmed for tele-
vision use in New Orleans.
$50 to 10 Ratio
THE Russians have about
$50 or ATS submarines to our
no." Admiral Rickover said.
1--WE have built about rs since
the end of World War II and
they have built about $780,"
AS far as is known, the So
viets do not have atomic sub
marines, the admiral said, but
their conventional submersi-
bles can carry and fire missiles
that could reach most East
Coast areas.
The Navy now has 33 nu-
clear submarines built, build
ing or authorized and the new
defense budget proposes 3
more.
Long Trips Taken
Admiral Rickover said
lengthy trips under the polar
ice cap by nuclear submarines
hao proved ability to travel
great distances and stay SUBJ
merged for as long as so days
The admiral said he was
aboard trial runs of the Skip
jack, a nuclear submarine, last
week end and it established
all kinds of world records"
This is the fastest subma-
rine that there is in the
world" he declared.

mails start wheeling frantically
like fourth-of-Jul pinwheels.
Experiments are planned to
see if fish will swim as "com-
manded."
Direct current can make
some organisms swim toward
either the negative or positive
pole, but this is alternating
current, pulsed like radar. Each
pulse lasts only is millionths
of a second, then is absent for
a few thousandths of a second.
There is thus little if any
heating effect, DR.. Heller says.
The curious effects of high
| frequency pulses might have
some bearing on complaints
that overexposure to radar can
produce sterility or cataracts in
humans, DR.. Heller said. This
was one suspicion which in
tereSted him in experimenting
on living things.
The frequency used here is
far below radar-range fire.
quency.
Affected by Frequencies
The scientists find that some
frequencies affect tiny internal
elements inside a paramecium
even when the paramecium is
trapped so it can not move and
take up the commanded" d.
rection.
This led to experiments pro-
ducing a variety of genetic
changes in fruit flies, bacteria
and root tips of garlic plants
by exposing them to huge doses
of high frequency field.
Chromosomes - the carriers
of inherited traits-sometimes
became scrambled like eggs.
Or they underwent other
changes which prevented cell
division or produced new types
Of cells.
If the force could be focused
to hit cancers, it might kill
cancer cells without harming
normal cells, and become an
anti-cancer tool. DR.. Heller
said. Tests of this possibility
are barely beginning.
The ability to get molecules
to line up in chain fashion
could perhaps be useful in
making better plaSticS or syn
thetic fiberS for clothes, DR.
Heller also speculateS.

higher frequency makes them
suddenly start swimming in
north-south directions.
Staphylococci bacteria ex-
posed to another frequency line
up like soldiers. So do some
non-living molecules, such as
particles of synthetic rubber.
Scramble Heredity Cells
Other frequencies scramble
heredity cells Of bacteria, fruit
flies and plants, so they can no
longer reproduce. The pied
piper force is potentially inter-
esting as a new tool to kill can
Ger cells.
BY legend, the pied piper led
the children Of Hamelin away
by playing a tune they couldn't
resist.
The pied piper force on liv-
ing things was detected by Drs.

Pinto Whose home is Lisbon,

They reported initial findings
this week end in the British

demonstrated the bizarre phe-
nomena to science writers.
The scientists don't yet know
exactly why things happen as
they do.
They do know they create an
electromagnetic force to which
living organisms respond as
though they carried tiny porta-
BILE radios.
High Voltage Current
It's done with a high-voltage
alternating current, changing
frequency UP to 40 million
times per second. This radio
frequency energy is transmitted
between two electrodes, separ-
ated by a slight gap of air or
water. The electromagnetic
field is created around and
through the objects being
tested.
Different frequencies affect
different types of living or non
living things.
It's been known that globules
of fat will line up in a chair
