A Realistic Compromise

The outlook for eventual passage Of
a Virginia sales tax has improved as a
result Of the willingness of Governor
Almond to grant concessions to oppo-
nents Of the politically surcharged tax
plan. The compromise per cent meas
ure offered by the Governor is a realistic
one, designed to appeal to several groups
of critics. Much Of the opposition has
centered around the size of the levy,
the division of revenues between State
and local governments and the formula
for apportioning the local share among
the counties and cities. The revised
draft should be more palatable for these
factions.
BY voluntarily lowering the proposed
tax from 3 to 2 per cent, Governor Al
mond has made conciliatory overture
to the hostile Senate Finance Commit
tee, which was to open hearings today
on the per cent plan. The reduc-
tion does not insure approval by ma
jority Of the committee, by any means,
but it undoubtedly will tend to make
the bills path bit smoother. Another
important factor in the new measures
favor is the increase in the local share
from one-third to one-half of the re-
ceiptS of the sales tax. There had been
strong opposition to the Governors orig
tnal suggestion of two-to-one division
between State and counties.
OF particular interest and satisfac-
tion to Northern Virginia Is the recogni-
tion In the revised bill of the injustice
that would be done rapidly growing
communities by retention of the present
formula for distributing funds to the
localities. That formula-which would
have been used also in the original bill
allocateS funds according to decennial
census figures, thus short-changing areas
where population ICONS between CEN
suses. The new formula would make
allotments on the basis of school popu-
lat1on-a figure geared to current popu-
lation changes.

There can be only one
evaluation of the action of
Charles de Gaulle in the
Algerian crisis, and it must
be 100 per cent in favor of
his strategy, rationalism
and understanding in the
critical situation.
The Algerian problem was
not only one of national
interest to France, but one
Of international Importance.
The eyes Of the entire world
rested upon President de
Gaulle, as people everywhere
waited to see what dramatic
decision he would render,
either to yield to the rebel
Algerians and the French
settler extremists, or to base
his Judgment on the princi-
Piles he thought best for all
concerned.
Certainly, his television
speech must be commended.
He was accused of being
stubborn, inflexible and un-
yielding, and he proved that
he was, to the point where
France and the free world
benefited by it. Gen. de
Gaulle refused to allow years
Of tireless efforts to build
the French prestige and gov
ernment policies to 60 to
waste, and he successfully
conveyed his thoughts to his
soldiers and many Of the
people who were holding out
against him.
Perhaps now, the SEEM
ingly never satisfied French
people will awaken to the
realization that their present
commander is truly a great
man, and an influential
world leader.

VISTAS IN SCIENCE
Rubber From Tin Has ADVANTAGES
By THOMAS R. HENRI

ogist head Of the Nays
clothing and textile research
branch, not only provides
warmth but provides positive
buoyancy for any sailor swept
of a deck in the heavy
weather likely to be en-
countered in polar waters.
The lining, says DR.. Seery,
greatly improves the mans
chance Of being rescued.
Formerly he might be lost
before the ship could turn
around to pick him up.
The foam lining, according
to a description from the
Manufacturing Chemists As
sociation whose members de-
veloped the material, will
hold the sailor up indefinitely
and has some of the advan-
tages Of q built-in life pre-.
server.
At present the Nays
Clothing and Textile Re-
search Laboratory in Brook
lyn, N. Y, is running tests
not only on polyvinyl chloride
but various other plastic
foams to determine their
relative effectiveness.
A hitherto unrecognized and
probably quite large family
Of viruses which apparently
are responsible for q wide
variety Of human and animal
illnesses has just been re-
ported to the American Asso-
citation for Advancement of
Science by DIR. Albert L.
Sabin Of the University Of
Cincinnati.
The sicknesses cover a
range from those that appear
to be common colds to serious
intestinal upsets. In animals
they have proved fatal, It
is likely that some of the
family remain undiscovered.
The diseases in the past pre-
sumably have been misdiag-
nosed or attributed to the
wrong agents.
Distinct in Properties
"These agents." says DR..
Sabin's report, ARE distinct
in their properties from all
other known viruses. They
have been recovered from
human beings, chimpanzees,
monkeys and calves. Serologic
data suggest that guinea pigs,
rabbits, dogs and cats also
may be naturally infected"
These so-called "reovi-
ruses," DR.. Sabin says, tend
to be somewhat larger than
most members of this SUBJ
microscopic group of semi.
organisms on the border be-
tween the living and nom
living.
All the strains thus far
Isolated, DR.. Sabin says, are
able to multiply enormously
IN the bodies Of newborn mice
and produce LESSONS in the
brain, liver and pancreas.
The association of various
reoviruses with respiratory
and enteric illness in human
beings, chimpspzees and
monkeys" DR.. Sabin saws.
points to the necessity of in.
cluding them in any sys-
tematic study of such dis
eases. The capacity to produce
LESSONS in the newborn mice
also points to the need of
considering them as a po-
tential cause of similar le.
sions IN newborn children.

Army chemists are expert
menting with rubber made
from tin.
This new kind Of rubber
called alkyl tin methacrylate
may prove Of great value in
rocket and missile applica-
tions where flame resistance
and dependable performance
at extremely high tempera-
lures are required.
This is reported to the
American Chemical Society
by DR.. j. c. MontermoSo of
the Army's Quartermaster
and Engineering Command.
The key element Of the new
rubber is tin rather than
carbon, the building block Of
most natural and synthetic
rubbers. Various so-called
silicone rubbers with great
resistance to both heat and
cold have been developed in
the past. Their key element
is silicone, which belongs to
the same family of chemical
elements as carbon. Tin also
falls into this family, DR..
Montermoso reports.
The new tin compounds
stretch like rubber and can
be vulcanized, but in their
present state of development,
he reported, they are inferior
to conventional rubbers both
in tensile strength and the
extent to which they can be
stretched. Both these prop
critics are used by chemists as
criteria Of rubber quality.
Vulcanizing Problem
"New compounding and
vulcanization techniques must
be developed" the Army
chemist said, "if these rub
bers are to be of practical
use."
Tin-derived rubbers can
not be vulcanized normally
with sulfur and zinc oxide,
but a certain degree of sue
cess has been achieved with
a mixture of sulfur and
another tin compound. he
noted.
The vulcanized tin rub
bers are considerably supe-
rtor to the nonvulcanized, he
pointed out.
Presumably, if success In
vulcanization can be achieved
and their quality somewhat
improved the new tin rub
bers can be tailored to the
needs of particular projects.
Due to a United States
Navy development, polar ex-
plorers will not need furs any
longer. They can be replaced
with a jacket of nylon coated
with synthetic rubber and
with a removable lining of a
synthetic chemical product,
polyvinyl chloride foam. This
garment now is being tested
on naval craft in polar
waters.
When the nuclear subma-
rine, the USS Skate, surfaced
through the Arctic ice cap at
the North Pole to scatter the
ashes Of Sir Hubert wilkins,
the crew members wore these
jackets for the first time and
reported them quite satisfac-
tory.

THIS AND THAT
BY CHARLES E. TRACEWELL
"Moreland Place.

"Moreland Place.
Dear Sir:
Really! How soft can you
get? Cats are like anybody.
If you want action, you must
be firm. Our cats have never
been allowed to stand in the
doorway for more than a
second.
After that, they are
nudged, gently but firmly,
by foot. out the door, which
is then unequivocally closed
behind them.
Cats are not stubborn.
They can be trained without
real difficulty by firm, con-
sistent action. My mother al
ways believed that a cats
place was in the kitchen.
AS a child, I had a much
beloved black and white tom
named Jack.
Jack often used to sit in
the doorway between the
kitchen and dining room. Oc-
casionally the temptation was
just too great for him: he
would start to sneak into the
dining room.
MY mother, who must
have had eyes in the back of
her head, would Immediately
call: Jack, where are you
going?'
Jack would turn and gaze
at her with his bland green
yellow stare.
Jack, come right back
here!'
And he did.
THE trouble with most cat
lovers is that they get soft
as they get older.
THE first cat I had in my
own home was not allowed to
sit on the upholstered furni-
ture. Like my mother, I be-
lieved a cats place was in
the kitchen; although mine
was allowed the liberty Of the
living room rug.
The cat before our present
one, a lion-hearted, orange
tom, who kept our premises
free of stray dogs, was al
lowed the run of the down.
stairs but trained never to
go upstairs.
HE never did, not in all
the eight years we had him.
4 y
Nov we have become al
most as permissive as you.
Our present cat ensconces
herself in the middle of my
bed; and I allow it.
What has happened to the
spartan training of yester-
year? What has come over
me? What would my mother
say?
Perhaps the trouble is that
this cat is 'part-angora,' a
country designation for the
part-Persian, I think, we al
ways called them that in my
little town when I was young.

growled and shouted at each
other through a long meeting
last night.
Martin F. ODonoghue, chair
man Of the three-man board
of monitors, called the board
into session for the first time
in several weeks. A dispute over
the boards membership had
delayed a meeting.
Mr.. ODonoghue waited in
his law Office at 1401 K street
NV. Lawrence T. Smith, as
signed to represent insurgent
members of the union on the
board of monitors, arrived late
He announced that he had
failed to talk William E. Bufa-
limo. who represents the union
on the board of monitors, into
coming to Mr.. O'Donoghue's
Office.
Mr.. Bufalino sat it out at the
office of the board of monitor,
at 1411 K street NV. Mr.
O'Donoghue and Mr.. Smith
finally gave in. With lawyers
and staff assistants in tow, they
went to Mr.. Bufalino.
