There are invisible northern
lights. This has just been re-
ported by Bureau of Stand
ards scientists.
Only about 4 per cent of
the light radiation Of the
aurora borealis are in the
spectrum to which the human
eye is sensitive, according to
the report of DR.. Franklin C.
Roach Of the Central Radio
Propagation boratory.
Much Of the rest, however,
can be detected by use of
instruments sensitive to COL
ors to which the eye is blind.
One example, DR.. Roach
cited, is in the red radiation
at $500 angstrom units
which, it has been found,
must be about 10 times as
intense as the aurora's green
light in order to be seen at
all. The eye is partially blind
to the red color.
Covers Vast Area
Photoelectric photometers
sensitive to the $500 ang-
Strom radiation have been in
operation at several stations.
At those located in mid
ATTITUDES, far toward the
equator with respect to the
visual auroral zone, a prom
inent auroral feature has
been observed at times when
geomagnetic activity was pro-
nounced. This has demon
strated the occurrence in
mid-latitudes Of an extensive
auroral arc at an altitude of
about $50 miles.
This arc is very stable in
contrast to the light observed
in the visual auroral zone. It
moves very slowly, if at all.
A surprising feature is it's
size and extent. 1t extends
about 500 miles in latitude,
300 in height, and thousands
Of miles in longitude-possi-
bly, all around the world.
The newly discovered invis-
ible aurora always occurs
when a visible aurora also is
present but the two phenom-
ena apparently are independ-
dent. They probably, DR..
Roach said, are due to diff
ferent causes.
Some speculative SUCCESS
tions ascribe the invisible
aurora to an electric current
circulating in the ionosphere
or to a photochemical reac-

THE POLITICAL MILL
The Foreign Aid Issue
BY GOULD LINCOLN

Also, there are members Of
Congress who resent the fact
that five or six of the larg-
est Latin-American republics,
including Brazil. Argentina
and Mexico did not join with
us and the rest of the Amer
lean states in the vote to
GUST Castro's Cuban govern
ment from the Organization
Of American States. These
countries, however, did join
in a resolution declaring that
a Communist-allied govern
ment such as Castro's had
no place in the Western Hem
isphere. This feeling Of resent
ment was Spurred, too, when
a province of Brazil expro-
priated an American owned
telephone company.
President K edy has
urged that no drastic steps
be taken to deny shares in
the Alliance for Progress pro-
gram to Brazil or any of the
other countries which did not
vote with US on the custer
of Cuba from GAS.
An Obstacle for Communism
This Alliance for Progress
is an important part of our
foreign aid program. It can
be an important part Of the
resistance to the spread of
communism in this hemis-
phere. One Communist gov
eminent - Cuba - is more
than enough. And Castro'S
Cuban government is feeling
increasingly the strain Of the
economic preSsures whic..
have been brought by this
country against it. Last Tues
day, diplomatic representa-
tives from most Of the repub-
lies Of the Western Hemis-
phere observed the first an
niversary of the Alliance for
Progress - the $40 billion.
10-year program of mutual
aid, which seeks to modeHp-
ize the economies and Aalse
the standards of the Latin
American peoples through
voluntary cooperation with
the United States under the
democratic process.
The alliance program has
been criticized for not hav-
ing made bigger strides. It
should be remembered, how
ever, that the program was
not proclaimed until March
Is, 1861, and that it could
not begin to move until last
August when the treaty was
signed. The United States
has committed about $1,029,-
$4,000 in loans and grants
to projects in Latin Ameri-
can states. Some two-thirds
of this sum is being with
held until details are worked
out in conformity with the
stipulations of reform set
down when the program was
agreed to. In a number Of
the countries the ways of
living, Of land holding, of
taxation are to be revised
and practices covering many,
many years. However, If the
program is to advance, and
the American Congress and
the American people are to
be convinced that it will work
satisfactorily, the Latin
Americans must demonstrate
through their own actions
and self-help - and not by
words alone-their willing in
tention to go through with
reforms.
The battle In Congress over
the whole foreign aid field
is still to come. It may be
delayed. certainly the appro-
priation bill is expected to
be. But it is greatly impor-
tant that the decisions be
made in the interests of this
country and its allies.

Bitter Pill

$50 'S~AAA NSS AuAA6AOLI
community Is undergoing in
tensive urban renewal. To
this worthy end, Rhode
Island avenue was widened,
stripped of its noble shade
trees and the AUDITING prop
erty made to conform to the
straight lines Of the bull
dozer and the confiscatory
power of eminent domain.
Then inspectors were sent
forth with alleged authority
under the Housing Division
of the D. c. Department of
Licenses, to make homes con-
form inside and out. with
their interpretations of re-
quirements Of the building
code. Neighbors came to me
in panic: They are making
what seem unreasonable de-
mands about matters that
are none of their business.
If we don't comply, they will
take us into court. If we do
their will, we will go so far
in debt we never will get out.
They have taxed us to death
and now they are assessing
us into bankruptcy.
I promised these old pa
tients and neighbors, that If
I found any evidence that
these administrative officials
were violating our rights of
due process, ! would be their
spokesman. It happens that
I am q good guinea pig.
I have had my office and
home at the present site since
1926. I lawfully was subject
to compliance with all coming
regulations applicable to a
business in a first CONNER
cial zone.
Mrs. Mattingly and I were
absent when the inspectors
came. Impressed by their Gre
dentials, our maid let them
inspect my premises. I was
advised of certain violations.
I was given until February
20 to correct them. Violation
2501 required me to replace
a fence rowdies had knocked
down. That was done imme-
diately. Violation 2503 re-
quired replacement of certain
sidewalks and approaches.
Despite inclement weather
and the fact my sidewalks
were not in as sad shape as
the Districts, I complied.
Violation 2512 indicated Ger
tain exterior wood surfaces
were not covered with preser-
vative. Here I began to dis
sent. Who with sanity would
command exterior painting in
February? Neither was I i'm
pressed when a subsequent
notice deferred the deadline
to March is.
But it was violation 1904
which made me balk. Vio-
lation 2504 pertained to loose
and falling plaster and parts
missing in my cellar stair
way, walls and ceilings. I ad-
NIT that widening Rhode
Island avenue, with heavy
traffic hitting craters, the
HOUSEKEEPING thud of giant
bulldozers, etc. made plaster
fall.
But I do not live in the
cellar nor do I conduct any
business there. have COM
piled with coming require
ments, at considerable extra
expense. Can any admins

to make esthetic repairs, def
initely not concerned with

History and Culture

Interest has been mani
tested by people from vari-
Gus walks Of life in my bill
to establish the Council for
the Preservation Of Historic
Landmarks and for Cultural
Development.
Carl L. Shipley, chairman,
Republican State Committee
for the District of Columbia
has written:
Back in 1895 in Grether
v. Wright, the Supreme Court
described Washington as the
city not Of a State, not of a
district, but of a Nation Too
often urban renewal and
highway programs and just
the memorable march of
progress and commercial de-
velopment destroy our his
toric landmarks"
John w. StenhouSe, the
well-known architect, wrote
in support Of my bill saying:
"A council such as you pro-
pose would open many doors
and provide a broad stimulus
in a field that locally has
been very much neglected.
Inasmuch as our Committee
Of the Washington Metropoli-
tan Chapter (American Insti-
tute Of Architects) is pri-
marily and seriously con-
cerned with the preservation
of buildings historically, ar
chitecturally, and culturally
significant, we would appear
to be similarly dedicated. We
indeed hope that the Com
mittee on the District Of
Columbia will seriously con-
slider this obvious need"
The Superintendent Of
Schools, Carl F. Hansen,
asked a number of penetrat-
ing questions about my bill
and indicated areas where it
should be improved. Then he
said:
1.-THE purposes of the bill
deserve the highest common
dalton. Congressional encour-
agement Of the arts in Wash
ington is certain to supply a
needed impetus to the de-
velopment Of culture. Sig
nificant stimulation of the
development of creative art
and the sharing of already
created art will materially
move this great city toward
becoming the cultural as well
as the political center Of the
world"
Mrs. Arthur ]. Goldberg,
wife Of the Secretary Of La
Dor, has been concerned with
the low estate of art pro-
grams in the public schools,
and is now working to enlist
parents, artists and other
volunteers to help school Of
ficials in an effort to improve
school cultural programs.
She has said that perhaps
the time might be ripe for
another project to raise the
level Of cultural awareness
throughout the city-and a
good place to begin is in the
schools"
The local municipal arts
council established in my bill,
H. r. l0177, would work in
the above fields.
Such a council is long
overdue.

submitted his foreign aid
bill to Congress, asking APP
preparation of som thing
more than $4.8 billion. This
huge appropriation for fiscal
year 1868, which begins July
l and ends June 30, 1868,
grows out of the important
job taken on by the United
States - the job of aiding
both economically and mill
,tarily a large part Of the
free world, a considerable
part Of 1t undeveloped or
underdeveloped. The ulti-
mate purpose of this job is
a peaceful world and human
well-being. It's immediate
purpose is defense against
the encroachments of inter-
national communism. The
policy is not new and is not
politically partisan. It was
supported by the Eisenhower
administration and was at
tackled, just as it is sup
ported by the Kennedy ad-
ministration-and will be at
tackled. Indeed, the attacks
have begun already in some
quarters on Capitol Hill.
Congress, in charge Of the
purse strings-or supposedly
and constitutionally so-has
never granted as. much for
foreign aid as requested by
the Chief Executive. It is
now expected that it will
prune this nearly IS billion
requested by President Ken
nedy, Notwithstanding his
strongly worded and clearly
understandable message to
Congress. 1t would however,
be short-sighted-and worse
Ito cut too deeply. For for
eign aid is in the interest Of
national defense, in the in
terest Of the American peo-
pie, just as it is in the in
terest of and in the defense
of our friends abroad.
The Presidents foreign aid
proposals will be handled first
by the Senate and House in
a so-called authorization bill,
and then by the two houses
in an appropriation bill. The
actual appropriation could be
less than the authorized sum,
and sometimes is.
Opposition Sentiment
Included in the requested
appropriation is $500 million
for the Alliance for Progress
program, which looks to i'm
proved economic and social
conditions in the American
Republics through our aid.
This is part of the So billion
which is to be used in this
program in a four-year pc
Rod, requested by President
Kennedy in his message to
Congress. The authorization
for the other $2.4 billion will
be carried in another bill and
as an amendment to the For
eign Assistance Act Of 1861.
Already there has been
some resistance expressed in
Congress. First, because as
a general thing, Congress
does not like to commit this
Government to future long
term expenditures. Some
members are saying: Let's
appropriate the $500 million
for fiscal year 1868 - and
then make the necessary au-
thorizations and appropria-
tions each year thereafter.
But President Kennedy has
correctly said that if our
Latin-American friends are to
make plans and programs for
land reform, tax reform and
for big development projects.
they should have assurance
from the United States that
it will cooperate, not just
for one year, but for the sue
ceeding years.

II the food we eat is as
important to us as it is now
thought to be, it may be
that habits in eating either
promote or delay physical
deterioration.
Many folks think that
older people do not require
the same diet as younger
ones and, therefore, leave
essential foods off their
menus. It is true that the
older person does not need
so much food, especially
sugar, white flour and fats,
but he does need a we'll
balanced diet.
Recent studies have shown
that the diets of eldely peo-
pie are too low in high grade
proteinS such as meat, fowl,
!, fish, eggs, seafood, cheese
and milk, and vitamin-rich
vegetables and fruits.
! Ideas
Not long ago at a sympo-
SUM on the aging at the
annual meeting of the Ameri-
can Home Economics Associa-
. ton, many such interesting
. ideas were presented. DR..
Agnes Fay Morgan, a profess
. sor Of nutrition, emeritus, of
the University of California.
Brekeley, was one of the
speakers.
She emphasized the i'm
portance of correct diet for
! the older person. She feels
that the later years must be
"active, lean and interest,"
ing, II they are to be golden
and not merely proof of
empty survival"
For many years now the
importance of the right food
for the infant, the child and
the teen-ager, has been spot
lighted.
What a shame it seems
that all those who are middle
age and older do not take
advantage of the facts which
now are known about nutri-
tion which apply to them. It
is never too late to put into
practice the information
available.
Become Careless
It is easy to see why older
people might become careless
about nutrition. In the first
place, they usually have less
appetite. Also, they no long

laborious to prepare a pro-

In some instances, they
have neglected their teeth

Guilty eating many foods.
However. it seems to me
that the psychological factors
are probably the greatest;
lack of incentive to prepare
well-balanced meals, and the
thought that good nutrition
is not so important after a
certain age.
