CoHeqe Site

The proposed future sites
of the Prince Georges Com
munity College are disap-
pointing; not only to me but
also to many other students
who will commute to and
from college.
The average college stu
dent who attends Prince
Georges Community College
does not have the financial
condition as that of the stu
dent attending a large COL
lege or university. Thus he
can not afford to spend any
large sum in committing to
and from college. The college
would only be of benefit to
the student who lives within
reasonable committing dis
lance.
The proposed future sites
at Laurel and Largo have
been chosen in extremely bad
Judgment. Choosing a site at
Laurel Is ridiculous, and even
though Largo is more cen
tralized it would serve only a
minority of the county stu
dents who would want to at
tend.
Does the Board of Educa-
ton forget by accident or by
choice that there happens to
be the State university in
northern Prince Georges
County? Having a commun-
ity college at either of the
two sites leads me to believe
that the board Of education
has some other interests be-
sides those of the students,
convenience. and locality.
Mr.. Stellhorn, the chief
planner for the Maryland
National Capital Park and
Planning Commission, OPP
posed these locations. Does
the board of education pre-
tend to know more about
planning than the qualified
Chief Palmer for the Mary
land National Capital Park
and Planning Commission?

Stock Taking Time

The state of the national economy
always is valid subject for discussion
and diagnosis as the end of calendar
year approaches. 1t is, in effect, stock
taking time-have we done well during
the past e-quarters-p and what
are the prospects for the new year? The
subject becomes even more alive, and
certainly controversial in the years of
national elections.
This year, the one in which the Ken
nedy administration is facing its first
test at the polls, is no exception. And
for several reasons it is not surprising
that opinions vary, and that reactions
range from satisfaction to discomfort,
from shades of optimism to shades of
gloom. But in this year it is noteworthy
that the extreme views are not too far
apart or even bitterly contentious. This
has, in short, been a good year-al-
though the fact that it has not been as
good as the administration calculated
last January helps to provide some of the
opposing political ammunition.
Actually, there were many, and not
necessarily partisan, economists who
questioned the early administration pro-
demonstrating the estimate of a
$50-billion rise in the gross national
product to record peak of $50 billion.
Even so, there is acceptable evidence
now that this index still will reach a
new high in the neighborhood of $3.50
billion, with little real need for admin
istration embarrassment. The trouble
some acknowledgements problem like
wise shows material improvement, even
though, as UnderSecretary of Treasury
Robert v. RooSa warned the other day,
an aggressive expansion of American
export trade will be needed to carry on
this improvement. In this area, there
is great hope that tariff-negotiating
powers given in the new trade expansion
act will supplement the already-proved
ability Of American industry to compete
in world markets.
Against the background Of mildly
divergent views about next years pros
pectS-and they do not range from the
extremes. of deep depression to exuber-
ant boom-there is reason to feel that
certain Government steps will have
helpful effect. Modernization of Amer
lean industrial facilities, making them
more competitive, may indeed be stimu-
lated by the up-dating of depreciation
rules and by the investment credit plan
incorporated in this years tax bill. The
Federal Reserve Boards action of
few days ago in lowering bank reserve
requirements will release more lendable
funds for business purposes, and reason
able promise of profit should encourage
the borrowers. The tax overhaul, and re-
duction, program which the admins
tration hopes to move through Congress
next winter should, in turn, improve
chances for the better net earnings.
With all the contemporary ma
chinery for influencing the economy, it
must be remembered that it cannot be
controlled as simply and completely as
turning water tap to right or left.
There are other forces, some intangible
and some specific, both at home and
abroad. Directing all or most of these
to the best advantage requires good will
and good sense-from Government, in-S
duStry and labor.

VISTAS IN SCIENCE
BIoodIess Rehearsal for Future War
By THOMAS r. HENRY

gram is set up to extend the
results of field operations.
Through this cooperation
soldier and scientist are get
ting answers to problems Of
ground combat operations
that could come from no
other source and will probab-
ly play a vital part in wars
of tomorrow.
- = Il
An electronic device to pro-
tect armored soldiers from
hearing damage caused by
gunfire wounds has been de-
veloped by Army doctors.
The device compliments a
natural physiological protec-
tive mechanism of the ear by
activating, in advance of fir
ing, contraction of outer and
inner ear muscles - thereby
reducing the transmission of
sound presSures.
Research at the Medical
Research Laboratory at Fort
Knox, KY, has determined
that the contraction of these
muscles, the so-called acous-
tic reflex, requires about
nine thousandths Of q sec
ond in which to take place.
Gunfire sounds reach their :
peak of loudneSS in a thou
sandth of a second. Thus
this natural protection is not
normally effective in ear pro-
lection.
May Save on Compensation
The new electronic device
provides a series Of sharp
pulses Of sound in the inter-
com system of an armored
vehicle. Warning is given
sufficiently in advance of the
firing of the weapons to per-
NIT the acoustic reflex to be
in full operation when the
sound waves from the firing
impinge upon the eardrums.
Most persons, according to
an Army report, show a tenn
porary hearing loss in re-
Spouse to experimental ex-
poSure to gunfire. Accept
ance Of this system will in
crease the efficiency Of the
armored soldier in battle, the
medical researchers believe,
by assuring full use Of his
hearing when it is needed
to receive commands in the
height of combat.
1t also will greatly reduce
future compensation claims.
The U. S. Veterans Admins
tration now is carrying some
Sc, 900 cases Of this sort, pay
on which amount to
almost $50 million q year.

it is Communist, became so
largely from our own doing.
And apropos of the current
Juror over Castro, Mr.. Col

bears repeating:
"As American Congressman

ponder the discrepancy be-

Israeli forces attacked Egypt
and their lack of concern
with morality in writing off
an attack on Cuba as an ad-
miniStrative fiasco."

u. S. Shifts NucIeor Policy Too Late
Foreign Correspondent Of The Sta

What Mr.. Bundy proposed
In Copenhagen last month
was a genuinely multilateral
European force-integrated
with ours in NATO." II the
Europeans decided to create
such a force MFR. Bundy said
the United States would not
stand in the way.
French See Joker
While stressing the unde-
STABILITY of individual, IN
effective and unintegrated
forces" he strongly implied
that the United States would
cooperate in the development
OF a European arsenal tied in
with the overall Western de-
Tense system. .
So far as the French are
concerned the joker in this
proposal. of course, is in the
concept of an 'integrated"
force. They suspect-because
they find it quite logical and
would do the same thing in
our place-that indignation in
fact means American control
of the use of force in a
showdown. The example often
cited is that of the British
nuclear force which has
been, over the years, SO Elm
tegrated" with the American
defense system as to have
lost any practical signifi-
canoe as a national deterrent.
This, to say the least, is not
what the French have in
mind, and, as long as Gen.
de Gaulle is running the
show, it will not be accepted,
no matter what the United
States decides to sell them.
The national force which is
being created may not be "ef-
fective" in the sense that
Americans think of nuclear
power. But it will be quite
effective enough in the terms
in which the French see the
purpose of their effort.
Practical View
AS they see 1t, any nuclear
weapon-no matter how OBJ
solete or unrefined - would
provide an effective trigger
for a general nuclear war be-
tween Russia and the United
States. If this is true, any
such weapon provides France
with nuclear deterrent as
potent as the whole nuclear
arsenal of the United States.
And it. would also very effec-
lively break the monopoly of
decision-making power now
held by the United States
within the Western alliance
on the use of nuclear weap-
onS.
This may seem unfriendly,
but it is also practical power
and political leverage which
will not be lightly yielded up.
If Mr.. Bundy's scheme for a
multilateral European force
has any future, it will be some
years hence-after the de-
parture of Gen. de Gaulle
and when the cost Of o ma
tional nuclear weapons sys-
tenn begins to weigh heavily
on his successor. The chance
of "integrating" the French
nuclear effort with that Of
the United States was ignored
for years by successive Ameri-
can administrations. And at
this late date 1t will not be
purchased cheaply.
