He Unlocked Ear Secrets

The Nobel Prize committee this
year has made an unusual award to an
unusual scientist. The 1851 award in
medicine has gone to man who is not
a physician, but whose work in un-
locking some of the mysteries Of the
ear has won him two honorary degrees
in medicine and who is credited with
giving the medical world information of
great value in treating and correcting
hearing defects. This extraordinary re-
Searcher is DR.. Georg Won BekeSy,
Hungarian-born physicist now on the
faculty Of Harvard University.
DR.. BekeSy first became interested
in the ear and how it functions while
working in the laboratory of telephone
company in Budapest. There were
several theories then as to how the ear
transformed sound waves into signals
enabling the brain to distinguish
between the multitude of noises that
daily beset the human ear None Of
these theories satisfied the inquisitive
young man, so he set to work to study
the innermeSt structure and workings
of the ear From these researches he
learned that membrane in the spiral
canal of the inner ear converts sound
waves into electrical or nerve signals to
the brain, much as microphone trans
forms sound into electrical impulses.
The American AcouStical Society,
in honoring DR.. Bekesy last May, said:
1T was really nature that devised the
intricate auditory transducer and buried
it deep in the hardest bone of the
human body, but with such adroit and
skillful craft has Bekesy bored into it's
recesSeS, and diagnosed its modes of &C
ton, that the modern ear seems almost
as much a matter of Bekesy'S con-
trivance as it is of natures patient
evolution" In view of all this, therefore,
it seems quite appropriate to award
the Nobel Prize in medicine to a phySi
cist, rather than physician.

Encouraging Sign

Several times over the past
couple of years I've had oc-
caSion to take issue with
what I believed to be a mis-
Interpretation of data con-
cerning heart and circula-
tory incidents. This miSin-
depreciation, as I see it, con-
tributed largely to a very
harsh ruling concerning the
mandatory retirement" of
all older competent airline
pilots over the age of SO.
However, after reading
your news item from Miami
Heart Attacks Not Due to
Stress, Doctor Says" (Star
October 22) concerning one
DR.. H. K. HellerStein's talk
to the American Heart As
Sociation / am encouraged
to believe, by this and other

Mr.. Days Surrender

The New York City poStoffice build
ing is adorned with this brave inscrip-
ton: Neither snow, nor rain, nor heat,
nor gloom of night stays these courierS
from the swift completion of their ap-
pointed rounds" This we take it, applies
to the letter carriers, not to the Post
master General For not only has Mr.
Day been stayed; he has surrendered to
what he calls hate campaign"
No other conclusion can reasonably
be drawn from the astonishing state
ment by Mr.. Day in explanation of his
action in the case of a Savannah, Ga,
letter carrier named w. w. Law The
latter had been fired on the basis of
charges which, if true, certainly war
ranted his dismissal. On appeal, however,
an impartial review board" reduced the
penalty to a strong reprimand" One
of the three review board members would
have approved the dismissal.
The Postmaster General might have
simply accepted the review boards
recommendation. Instead, he issued a
statement which says, in effect though
not in so many words, that he has
capitulated to pressure. The letter
carrier had been active in the Georgia
NAACP, and that organization waged an
intensive campaign in the carriers
behalf, contendingt that the charges were
either trivial or untrue and that he was
being prosecuted because of his NAACP
activities.
Mr.. Day replied that he would not
want person with Laws record of con-
duct delivering mail to my family'S
home" But he is willing to let him
deliver mail to homes in Savannah, and
he justifies this by saying that it would
be injurious to the interests Of $4,000
postal employees to make a martyr of
Law" Il assure all our employees" he
added, that I shall not permit this
shabby use of pressure on Laws behalf
to alter or discourage me in my deeermi
nation to make the greatest strides ever
toward non-discriminatory policies in
the postal service"
We do not know whether Mr.. Day
has acted in response to pressure from
higher political authority. But it is
difficult to think of anything he could
have done that would be more injurious
to morale and discipline in the Post
office Department than his action in
the Law case-aSSuming that he believes
his own statement.

Neglected Health Problem

President Kennedy has called at
tention to a health problem that,
strangely, has not received the study
which its seriousness and prevalence
justify, namely, mental retardation.
When it is considered that there are
5 million mentally retarded persons in
the United States and that the number
is increasing annually, the failure to
devote more time and money to research
in this field is hard to understand. The
Presidents plan for national effort,
to find, if possible, the cause and cure
of the affliction is worthy of wide public
support.
Mr.. Kennedy gave some startling
statistics to emphasize the need for
action in this oo-little- explored health
research field. He said that mental
retardation diSableS ten times as many
men, women and children as diabetes,
twenty times as many as tuberculosis,
twenty-five times as many as muscular
dystrophy and 600 times as many as
infantile paralysis. Yet millions OF
dollars more have been spent and will
be spent on private and public research
into such diseases than on mental
retardation research.
In order to determine how much
additional should be spent on this type
of research and to what extent the
Federal Government should participate
in it, Mr.. Kennedy has appointed a
panel Of "a outstanding physicians,
scientists, educators and others to study
the problem and make recommenda-
tions. The panel has been asked to re-
view what has been done and to suggest
ways in which the research can be
expanded, both in Federal and private
laboratories Our goal" he said, should
be to prevent retardation. Failing this,
we must provide for the retarded the
same opportunity for full social develop
ment that is the birthright Of every
American child"
This is something close to the
heart of everyone who has an afflicted
loved one or friend. And it is problem
properly of national concern, since it
affects the well-being of so many
Americans.

Conqo Promise

Although the situation in the ever
turbulent Congo Republic remains diff
ficult and explosive, considerable en-
couragement can be derived from the
ceaSe-fire and truce agreed upon by the
United Nations and Katanga Province.
For the agreement offers good guar
anteeS against resumption of the
shooting that started last month when
the U. N, in what seems now to have
been thoroughly unWiSe move, resorted
to small-scale armed action in an effort
to put an end to Katanga'S secession
under President Noise TShombe.
Beyond that wholly apart from it's
military meaning, the agreement is
politically promising in the sense that
it may help to promote union between
Mr.. TShombe's provincial regime in
Elisabethville and the central Congolese
government of President KaSavubu and
Premier Adoula in Leopoldville. AS Mr..
TShombe has indicated, however, such
a union would have to be in the form
of federation, with Katanga retaining
a large measure of autonomy in it's
internal affairs even while committing
itself to Leopoldville's direction in the
international field, and also in general
national development.
Certainly an EliSabethville Leo
poldville understanding along these
lines would be development of prime
Importance, not least of all because it
probably would oblige the sinister,
commissioning Antoine Gizenga to
stop romancing with the Kremlin. Mr.
GiZenga holds position of some i'm
portance in the CongoleSe central gov
ernment, but his personal regime in
Stanleyville, in Oriental Province, is in
many respects even more secessioniSt
than Mr.. Tshombe' sand linked with
Moscow, whereas KatanganeSe ties are
with the West. This is something that
speaks pretty much for itself, and it
helps to explain why Katanga's pro-
Western President has been in no hurry
to put an end to his Secessionism.
Nevertheless, as indicated by the
truce agreement, Mr.. Tshombe is recep-
tive to the idea of establishing federal
system of government in the Congo,

Q. Where did the game Of

A. Little is known concern
ing the history of cribbage.
1t appears to be of English
origin and was formerly
known as Noddy. 1t was men,
toned under that name in
an epilogue by Sir John Har-
rington in 1916. The earliest
description of the game is
found in the "Compleat
CANISTER" 1874. The place
and time of the first game of
cribbage is not recorded, nor
the reason for the use Of 81
as a limit. Originally, 81 was
used as q stopping point.

THE POLITICAL MILL
By GOULD LINCOLN
NeutroIs Make q Farce of u. N.

nedy administration has
warned that If Russia con-
tinues it's atomic tests in the
atmosphere-and it already
has exploded a 23d bomb
the United States will resume
testing in the atmosphere. 1t
has not yet done so but has
confined its tests to under
ground. with no Ganger Of air
pollution.
Soviet Prates Of Fate
The Russians continue to
speak in mealy mouthed
fashion of their devotion to
peace. And to insist they
were driven to break the NOR
atorium of three years ex-
tent on the tests Of atomic
bombs by the fact that Presi-
dent Kennedy and the Con-
gresS of the United States
had made plans to build up
the armed forces of this
country. This is the kind of
thing they have continued to
feed to the neutralist nations
and to Latin America and the
Asian and African blocs in
the United Nations. This lat
est move on the part Of Mr..
Khrushchev. however, has
done much to blast these
peoples and their representa-
tives in the U. N. into some
realization of what they, as
we'll as the Western nations,
face. The Russians have been
unable to prevent the news
Of their atomic explosions
from being published in all
nations beyond the Iron Cur
tain.
Again, it appears that the
United Nations is at the
crossroads. Either it must act,
and act promptly, on this
matter Of the testing of
atomic bombs or be relegated
to the list of debating socie-
ties which talk but accept no
responsibilities. The General
ASsembly's Political Commit
tee had before it for more
than a week proposals to deal
with atomic tests. 1t was de-
batting proposals by India,
along with those of the
United States and Britain,
when Mr.. KhruShchev's an
nouncement he intended to
explode before the end of Oc-
tober a 50-megaton bomb
brought a demand from more
than half-a-dozen nations
for immediate action on a
resolution calling upon the
Russian premier to abandon
this explosion. The committee
finally passed the resolution
last night.
The Indian resolution calls
for a voluntary agreement by
= the atomic nations to ban
tests until the whole disarma- =
ment problem can be ex-
plored further-the kind of
agreement of which Russia
made a scrap of paper not
long ago. The United States
British resolution calls for a
binding treaty to which the
atomic nations will affix their
signatures. The latter is op-
posed by the Communist bloc.

Israel and Arabs

Concerning your editorial,
Israel and the Arabs" in
the october IL issue. one
wonders how a responsible
newspaper could be moved
to praise this old. old peace"
proposal of the Israelis. 1t
is the same kind of peace
offensive" which emanates
from time to time from
Moscow. The recipe is all too
familiar: First, proposes a
Evening star., 1961-10-26

peace settlement which is
obviously unacceptable to
your opponent. second, brand
your opponent a warmonger
when he turns it down. and
finally, lombard the world
with propaganda which pro-
claims you a peace-loving
people.
To understand the Arab
rejection of such peace Of
fenSives. one has to cut
through the Israeli-Zionist
smoke screen and look at
this hard fact: The Arabs
will never deal with Israel
as long as that nation is
the beachhead of an ag-
gresSive. imperialistic Jew
ish nationalism" whose real
sources Of political and eco
nomic power are centered in
the Zionist apparatus in the
United States and. to a lesser
extent, in Great Britain and
Western Europe.

Stadium Parking Fee

I am inclined to agree with
Arthur j. Berg man that
the one dollar parking fee
at the new stadium and
the District Armory is not
exorbitant. Obviously, a lot
of people do not agree. be-
cause Mr.. Bergman himself
says they are complaining.
The reason he offers them
to justify the charge just
doesn't hold up under Scru-
tiny.
Mr.. Bergman says Con-
greSs expects the Armory
Board to pay the bond in
terest. 1891. 800 annually, and
parking offers the biggest
revenue. The bond interest
is a just obligation, but it
should be shared equitably
by everyone using the Sta-
dium, including those who
walk there. those who come
on buses or by cab, and
those who park free on the
streets in the vicinity. The
parking fees should cover
cost. maintenance, and su-
pervision of the parking lots.
plus a fair profit.
The fact that theater park
ing is scarce and expensive.
has nothing to do with the
matter. The theaterS in ques-
ton are located in congeSted
areas where land for park
ing is scarce ande Expensive.
Many Of the neighborhood
theaterS furnish parking free.
No point can be made from
the reported fact that the
University of Illinois, North
western and Ohio State Uni
verSities, and several others
charge 81 for parking at
football games. Several
others charge less than a
dollar, too, and a good num-
ber of colleges and univer-
stiles do not charge any,

The Oceans Secrets

Your editorial, THE
Oceans Secrets" was most
timely and appropriate, call
ing attention as it did to
the needs Of Inner space"
and the necessity of learn
ing more about the mysteries
and resources of the sea.
However, the editorial left
the impression that no funds
were appropriated by the
first session Of the 87th Con-
greSS for the expanded ocean
ographic program asked by
President Kennedy in March,
1861. 1t is true that Senator
MagnuSon's bill IS. 90D
passed the Senate but was
not acted upon by the House.
But the S97 million needed
to launch the program actu-
ally was obtained by adding
certain amounts to the
budgets of the various govern
mental agencies involved in
oceanic research and devel-
opment-namely. the Navy.
the Coast and Geodetic Sur
vey, the Bureau of CONNER
cial Fisheries. the Atomic
Energy Commission, National
Science Foundation. Public
Health Service, etc.
This kind of gerry-rigged
financing is not the final
answer to all Of Americas
oceanic needs, but it will have
to do until the admins
tration realizes that ocean
ography is no longer the
step-child Of a number of
interested but basically un-
related parents. The ramifi-
cations of oceanography-in
submarine offense and de-
fense. in guarding against
atomic pollution of the seas,
and in augmenting the sup
ply of food. minerals and
fresh water to meet the needs
of the worlds exploding
population-have vastly in
creased its stature in recent
years.
1t seems obvious that
oceanography must now as
sumo equal rank with other
top-level policy concerns Of
the Federal Government, as
has "outer space" in the Ma
tional Aeronautics and Space
Administration. This is
something that the next ses-
sion of Congress may have
to deal with on a crash pro-
gram basis. if the Russian
threat from the sea con-
tinues at its present pace.
Russia has the worlds larg-
est submarine fleet. as well
as the largest vessels devoted
to oceanic reSearch-two
facts which should speak
volumes when the second ses-
sion of the 87th Congress
convenes in January 1862.
f. John Long,
Evening star., 1961-10-26

and perhaps some real progress may be
made in that direction if all parties
concerned, including the U. N, CO.
operate. At best, of course, especially
because of the primitive tribal customs
that are widespread among the Congo
lese, such progress is likely to be slow,
but it can and will be made if leaders
like MesSrS. KaSavubu, Adoula and
TShombe honestly strive for a meeting
of minds among themselves.

Gesture of friendship

Nationalist China'S Ambassador to
the United Nations, T. F. Tsiang, says his
government went along with the deal to
admit both Outer Mongolia and Mauri-
tania to membership because African
nations backing the latter had made it
clear they would welcome gesture of
particular friendship toward Mauri-
tania."
This is a diplomatic way of saying
that the African StateS-the So-called
Brazzaville group-had threatened to
support Red China'S bid for member
ship, at the expense of Nationalist China,
if the latter vetoed Outer Mongolia in
the Security Council.
Thus, the Soviet Union has had its
way. 1t had said it would veto Mauri-
tania if Mr.. TSiang vetoed Outer
Mongolia. This obviously was form Of
blackmail, but it worked. For the
Nationalist Chinese, hoping to hold their
own seat, swallowed their objections to
Outer Mongolia and went along with the
deal.
1t remains to be seen how useful
this act of capitulation will be. 1t ought
to serve to keep the Red Chinese out at
this U. N. session. But it is at least
doubtful that, in the long run, it can
save Nationalist China'S place. The tide
in the U. N, for better or worse, and we
think it is for worse, seems to be running
in the other direction.
