CUPID - The worlds largest

telescope currently is in con-
struction here and is expected
to go into operation next fall.
The magazine Sideways, Off
cial publication of the American
Iron and Steel Institute, re-
ported that one of the first ex-
periments would be to try to
determine whether the stars in
other solar systems emitted
radio signals like those of the
sun. If the signals are re-
ceived, they may help to explain
the physical laws that govern
the phenomenon, it was ex-
planned.

lean chicken and egg farms
aren't like they used to be.
The Agriculture Departments
Economic Research Service re-
ports that Is or 20 years ago
more than 80 per cent of U. S.
farms had chickens and pro-
duced eggs. Chickens were then
the most widely distributed
farm enterprise. The number of
farms on which chickens were
kept exceeded the number re-
porting any other classes of
livestock.
This has changed. The 1859
census of agriculture reported
that more farmers had cattle
on hand-whether beef or dairy
than the number of farmers
reporting chickens. And Of the
~ million farms reporting
chickens, only half sold eggs.
From this information, the
Economic Research Service
classified farm families into
three groups insofar as their
egg production and supply are
concerned. The first group -
is million farmers ~ has no
chickens over four months old
and must buy eggs. The next
group, IL million farmers, has
chickens over four months, but
sells no eggs. Presumably these
chickens are in small flocks pro.
ducing eggs intended for home
consumption.
Finally, there are another IL
million farmers who sell eggs.
They produce the salable sup
ply of about As billion dozens a
year which serves as the basis
for commercial table egg sup
ply, as the raw material for

When the Baltimore Colts ar.
rive in Washington this fall to
meet their old rivals the Red
skins, the game will be played
amid the palatial surroundings
of the new Washington Sta
dunn.
If you drive over to see the
Colts play, you will be sure to
find parking space in the 80
acre parking area. 1t has facili-
ties for 1880 cars, and if you
come in the bus, your bus will
be conveniently parked along
with 299 other buses.
Like all such civic projects,
the Stadium. has not become a
reality without a struggle on
the part of its sponsors. In 1915
Congressman Owen Harris of
Arkansas introduced the first
stadium bill, but his efforts at
that time were completely I'M
successful. 1t was not until 10
years later, in 1855, that the
idea received concrete support
from the local citizens, officials
of the District of Columbia and
the Administration. Then it was
expected that an adequate sta
dunn would be built for a max
imum of 81 million dollars, a
far cry from the final price
ticket of 221x million. Congress
man Harris has expressed the
hope that each year the fans in
the area may be assured of see
ing the football teams of the
Navy, Air Force and the Army
exhibit their wares right here
in the Nations Capital. No def
mite arrangements for this have
yet been made.
This modern stadium
will be the home grounds of the
Washington Senator's, the Red
skins, and the Colonials of
George Washington University.
The stadium will provide much
needed facilities for all major
athletic events including the
baseball games between the SEN
ators and the Orioles. Boxing
and wrestling events will be held
here and this grandiose amphi-
theatre will be the scene of the
goth century circus, music ard
folk festival, civic and national
affairs and even religious func-
tons.

The research group said that
with eggs being sold from only
slightly more than one million
farms, and with an even small
er number of commercial spe-

bulk of the output, one thing is
obvious:
The impression of egg pro-

Later, he said, Shaw came
to Miami to sell a unit for
$500. A private detective put
State investigators on the case
as the potential buyers. He
told the committee that Shaw
demonstrated the device by at
taching it to his telephone and
having the prospective buyer
go to a pay station and dial
his number. When the call was
completed, he said, the investi-
gator got his dime back as an
uncompleted call.
Mr.. Montgomery was asked
if the telephone company had
developed counter measures.
He said that several methods
of dealing with the device have
been developed and are being
carefully studied to determine
which method works best.

dismissed after it was brought

ing when the American pub
lie will no longer delay after
being faced with accomplished
facts.
In this event, it is my
belief that neutralists around
the world will take heart
and courage and this will
begin to filter behind the
Iron Curtain countries every
where. The Achilles heel Of
the Kremlin is its Subjugated
peoples. Should they-sup-
ported by the American peo-
ple-be encouraged to rise
en- maSse in rebellion the
Communist conspiracy is
doomed.
This will be the beginning
of the end of the world revo-
luton which Marx and his
successors have been striv-
ing for since 1848. Only. the
victory will be ours. Brave
men will take over the lead
erShips of the world and it
will then be truly united in
peace in the real meaning of
the word, not the Commu-
niSt's false connotation.
Il cannot emphasize too
strongly that we still expect
America to be the source
whence comes our strength.
Our only hope for the survi-
val of free society depends on
America countering the gi-
gantic Communist plots. The
common sense and courage
of the American people are
the real fear of the Kremlin
not your nuclear weapons.
From a careful analysis Of
all our information here in
Switzerland we are convinced
that there will be no war.
The United States has enor-
nous retaliatory power, and
the SovietS do not want to
risk destroying themselves.
Neither could a devastated
world bring them victory.
Their aim is to conquer
through internal revolutions.
Now, the world revolution has
begun; but victory will even
tually belong to the free
world"
Because the survival of his
vast industrial holdings in
many lands depends on it,
my friend has kept a sharp
eye on internal conditions in
many countries. If there is
trouble, what does it stem
from? From Soviet inroads?
From weakness of a key Off

ZURICH. Sutherland

ZURICH, Switzerland -
Here again are further views,
prophecies and comments of
my Swiss industrialist friend
who was in a mood to pull
no which is a Swiss
characteristic.
To listen to such candid
views, to hear discussed sub
jectS which many in the
United States tend to pass
over because of their ugli-
ness, was both unpleaSantly
refreshing, gripping and at
the same time offering hope
for peace in the normal sense
of the word.
Pouring millions and mil
lions of dollars into South
America is not the answer to
the problem there. AS long as
South Americans can watch
Fidel Castro, from his little
island, spit in the face of the
great nation to the north,
they will conclude that
Washington cannot prevent
Communist inroads in the
Southern Hemisphere, state
mentS of the politicians not
withStanding. A Castro could
suddenly appear in the midst
of any one of them and the
United States could do
nothing to stop him.
And you seem to be blind
to the subtle-or not so
subtle-takeover of the Car
ibbean. If you study the
political situation of the
bordering countries and
possessions along with your
map this becomes quite clear.
Begin with Mexico, then
trace a line through Central
America to Panama, the
Canal Zone, Colombia, Vene-
Zuela, Puerto Rico, the Do
minican Republic and Haiti.
Next comes Panama and
then HiSganiola. If you do
not awaken to this danger in
time, the Gulf of Mexico and
the Caribbean will become
known as the Western Red
Sea.
TO your north is your his
toric good neighbor, Canada.
with its 3,000-mile border.
You have paid little attention
to this friendly ally. Yet, the
Communists are already say
ing Canada needs another
Castro and claim that there
will be another Cuba there
within a few years. Still you
go casually along as though
no such thought had entered
the Kremlin's plans.
