(SpeciaD-It's no secret that
deafness can strike both men and
wOmen-and children too, for that
matter. What many people don't
know is that from age Is on, it's
normal to lose a small amount Of
your hearing ability every year.
This amount of normal hearing loss
will be so small that you viii
probably never notice ii.
However, when you lose more
than the normal amount of your
hearing ability, you may require
the assistance of a tiny, inconspic.
uous hearing aid.
We have just seen a factory pre-
view of a 1862 model hearing aid
so small that it weights just one
third of an ounce-and yet so pow.
erful that it can even help nerve
deafness. We don't have them in
stock yet, but we do have literature
available and will gladly mail you
information on this extremely
small, almost invisible hearing aid.
No cost, of course. Just write your
name and address on a postcard
and mail to the address below.
Well send an illustrated booklet
on the new hearing aid TO you in
plain envelope, by return mail.

CHICAGO R, .-- A cosmetics chemical explosion leveled a one story blending building and rocked the west side for miles and in jured an estimated POO persons today.
 There were no fatalities. A loss control engineer declared the disaster plan of the Helene Cur tis industries worked effectively and all 800 persons working in seven buildings were evacuated within five minutes.

 Damage to the Curtis plant and Zenith factory was estimated at $250,00O.
 Windshields and windows of scores of automobiles parked in the area were smashed in as if by sledgehammers.
 A heavy odor of sulfuric acid spread over the site and inpeded rescue work. Heavy plate glass windows were blown from build ings in a radius blocks from the site of the blast.

Calculating Machine Wires Get Crossed Up i.

WASHINGTON tR = A calcu- lating machines wires got cross ed, and the Army in Europe ordered STA million worth of material it didn't need, the gen eral accounting office reported today.
 The report to Congress said the Ordnance Supply Manage ment Agency, Orleans, France, ordered last year a total of SEA million in excess of the then cur rent requirements, because of in- effective supply management"
 One example, it said. was a paperwork error in which an act ual surplus of 4,092 automotive transrnissions was transformed into a shortage of 2,9O2 for which replacements were ordered from She United States.
 The Army, in comments attach ed to the report, attributed STA million Of the alleged excess to improper wiring of an electrical accounting machine control panel. But 1t said the error was caught soon enough so that only $4,000 worth Of the material was actu- ally delivered

US. Troops in Berlin Roll Out on Three-Day Test of Combat Readiness

BERLIN R Nearly hail West Berlin's 6,50O-man US. gar rison rolled out today for three day test Of combat readiness.
 Tanks rurnhled through the streets at daybreak, followed by ar1nored personnel carriers pack ed with steel-helmeted troops.
 There was cold fall wind un- der blue skies as the columns wheeled out of their barracks and headed for the Grunewald Forest, in the American sector of south west of the city proper, where the mock battles will be staged.
 Berliners on their way to work waved to the Americans, who grinned and waved back, especial ly at the girls. An Army spokes- man emphasized that the war games -- dubbed Ever Ready II = were planned in July, we'll ahead of the Communist closure of the East Berlin border Aug. B.
 Approximately 5000 men are taking part under the overall leadership of Brig. Gen. Fred erick Harte1, the US. Commander in Berlin.
 The purpose of the major fall exercise is to practice attack and delay against aggressor, to test the troops ability to hold off an invading force until help can come from West Germany.

US. Asks SOviets To Reconsider
 50-Megaton Blast

WASHINGTON R-The White House has asked the Soviet Union to reconsider it's decision to ex- plode 50-megaton nuclear bomb, charging that the test would be unnecessary and could "only serve some unconfessed political purpose
 It said the United States had the materials and know-how to produce bombs in the 50-i10O megaton range-and higher-but that such weapons are not cs- sential to US. military needs and that full-scale tests are not neces- sary to develop them
 Assistant Press Secretary An drew T. Hatcher said today the White House has received no re- action from the Soviet Union to it's stand.
 US. strategists hoped the White House statement, citing the lack of military. purpose for such a test, would rally world opinion against the Kremlil.
 From a diplomatic standpoint Khrushchev's Moscow speech wa. seen as combining the carrot or stick technique with the flicl of whip-mixing the lure of ne gotiations over Berlin whil, brandishing a mammoth nuclea threat.

Chemist Claims Desert
 Is Safest from Fallout

LOS ANGELES R = Want to escape long-range fallout from a nuclear bomb? Go live in desert.
 That's the answer Nobel prize winning chemist Willard F. Libby gave at news conference yes terday.
 Libby, appearing at the Na- tional Civil Defense Council Con- vention, explained:
 Fallcat is carried by rain. There's little rain in the desert. And therefore such an area would be relatively free of world wide fallout.
 He said fallclt shelters protect humans against local fallout but not against the long-range effects of radiation. However, he said, millions of lives could be saved by shelters and should be built immediately.
