japan Probes Mystery
Of 5 Red Missile Subs

100 subs assigned to its Far
East Fleet. Recently, the out
going chief of the United States
7th Fleet stated that Red
China possesses 80 subs give
or take a few" The Red Chi
nese and Soviet submarine
force combined was said to give
the Communists an approx
mate 3-to-1 underSea advan-
tage over the United States in
Oriental waters.
Rare Occurrence
Japanese sources said it is
common practice for Russia to
assign ships to its Far Eastern
Fleet in the months of Septem-
Der and October. But these
sources said that the passage
of IL Soviet ships into the
Pacific at one time was quite
rare"
And Japan was reported
earnestly trying to find out
the destination of the remain
ing five submarines"
Tie United States maintains
a key radar site at Wakkanai,
on the tip Of the northern jap
anese island of Hokkaido. Pre-
Sumably. the Japanese Self
Defense Forces confirmed the
passage of Soviet subs through
the Soya Strait from this radar
site. This body of water lies
between Hokkaido and the So
viet-held island of Sakhalin. 1t
is less than so miles wide.
1t was in this area that the
Soviet Union reported an over
flight recently Of an American
high-flying w. plane.
Soviet naval bases in the
Far East include-in addition to
Vladivostok - Nakhodka, Kor-
sakov. Olga. Anadyr and Pet
ropavlovsk- Kamchatski. They
stretch from the Boring Sea,
off Alaska. south to the Sea of
Japan.
United 'ates aerial surveil-
lance Of Communist bases and
naval vessels in these waters
is believed extensive. A few
weeks ago. the Moscow radio
charged that twin engined
United States military planes
flew over Soviet ships in the
Japan Sea lin an attempt to-
obstruct the vessels naviga-
ton"
The charge of obstruction
appeared ridiculous. But United
States aircraft certainly patrol
over international waters in
almost every part of the Far
East, including the Japan Sea.

The United Arab Republic
backs the revolutionary govern

royalists under the banner of
the deposed Imam tking) Mo-
hammad Al-Badr, Prince Has
sans nephew.
According to information I
received from Riyadh (the
Saudi Arabian capitaD, Has
san was wounded in the leg in
a battle in Yemen" Prince Liz
said. "Saud transferred him to
the American hospital in Dhah-
ran. where the leg was Snpu-
tated. He subsequently died and
probably was buried in Saudi
Arabia"
He did not give the location
of the battle or date of Prince
Hassan's reported death.
A Yemeni royal radio broad
cast recorded in Amman, Jor-
dan, said revolutionary and
JAR troops in the Madad
area have yielded to the Imam's

Cigarettes Hit,
Damages Out
In Cancer Suit

PITTSBURGH, Nov. 10 CAP) .
"A Federal court jury has ruled
that cigarette smoking may give
you lung cancer, but you can't
legally blame the cigarette
manufacturer.
A United States district court
jury came to this conclusion
yesterday after a trial in which
a carpenter tried to collect
damages from Liggett & Myers
Tobacco Co.
Otto Pritchard. GA, of Pitts
burgh, said he smoked the COM
pany's Chesterfield cigarettes
from the 1920s until 1858, got
lung cancer and had his right
lung removed.
The jury of eight women and
four men ruled that cigarette
smoking was 1.-THE cause or one

Pritchard assumed the risk of
injury when he started smoking

The panel said Liggett g.

press warranties upon which
the plaintiff relied and by
which he was induced to pur-
chase" the cigarettes.
Attorneys for both sides in

ly satisfied with the verdict.
James P. McArdle, Mr.. Prit-
chard's attorney, said: Il would
assume in the broad sense that
we won because we have estab-
lished that there is a causal
medical connection between
smoking and lung cancer"
He called the verdict a
"mixed victory" and a social
victory"
Mr.. McArdle continued, "it

William Eckert, counsel for
Liggett & Myers, said the jury's
linking Of smoking to lung cam

deeply gratified by the YER

Mr.. Pritchard had tried to
collect $213,0O0 in damages.
The trial lasted six weeks as
both sides paraded a host of
medical people to the stand.
1t was the second time the
case had been tried. After
testimony was completed in the
first trial in 1860. the judge
prevented the cause from going
to the jury on the grounds that
insufficient evidence was pre-
sented.
Mr.. McArdle went to the
United States Circuit Court of
Appeals and a new trial was
ordered.
He said he doesn't know
whether he will appeal yester-

R. Stewart Rauch, jr., vice

ing this principle into law.
Japan put the equal pay for
equal work principle into its
constitution in 1946. Burma
did it in its constitution in
1947, india in l949, Indonesia
in 1850. :.
The explanations for our
persistent failure to recognize
the validity of this principle
are a hodge -podge of pocket
book, prejudice, tradition and
fear. Many employers are
openly hostile to the action be-
cause they fear their payrolls
would be increased If women's
wages we're the same as mems
for identical work. The preju-
dices and traditions are well
known.
The YWCA's Miss Thomson
summed it up superbly when
she said to the House subcom-
mittee:
"Is this because we want to
say to the world that we hold
women's work to be less valu-
able than that of mems? This
is hardly conceivable. I prefer
to believe that it merely Signi-
fies that we have just not yet
caught up with ourselves" We
certainly have not.

none more urgently than to

Mr.. Collins spoke at the ninth

According to scientists,
Africa is the cradle of man; &C
cording to politicians, it rep

other as they are" Mr.. Collins
said.
While admitting that now
where in the world has per-

than among the black indus

added that a middle-clasS is
fast developing among Negroes
there. Savings and loan as

ment Africa needs for human

sex continues painfully obvious.
One-third of 1900 compa-
nies surveyed by the National
Office Management Associa-
tion last year reported a dou-
ble-standard pay scale for
male and female officeworkers.
In one plant in Utah studied
by the Young Women's Chris
tian Association, the hiring
rate for women inspectors is
$1.38 an hour, for men, SLAB

rises to "a cents as they move
up the experience ladder -
even though, as Miss Ruth
Thomson Of the YWCA told a
House subcommittee, they are
required and expected to do
exactly the same job under
the same conditions.
Another survey of bank
tellers' salaries in 1860 dis
closed that women tellers with
under five years of experience
typically average SIS to SIS a
week less than men in the
same group - and in a bank, a
teller is a teller is a teller, re-
gardless of sex. Among college
graduates, the difference in
average salaries for men and
women, when compared by oc-
cupation and type of degree,
range from $500 to $1,56O a

fact, the gap widens as educa-

For the 18th consecutive

ers to pay women the same

The Equal Pay Act of 1862
got further than any previous

nation on account of sex in the
payment of wages" though,
For the first time, an equal
pay bill was passed by the

Admittedly. the House passed
the bill in a frivolous mood,
amended it so that it would
have permitted employers to
cut the pay of men to equalize
the pay of women! But at least
