Well Said!

Dave DubinSky, the eloquent presi-
dent of the International Ladies Gar
ment Workers Union, disputes the
charge of the National Association for
Advancement of Colored People that his
union practices racial discrimination in
its choice of officers. We are not suf1-
GENTLY informed to hand down a ver-
dict on this difference of opinion But
we do indorSe the principle expressed,
with admirable vehemence, by Mr. Du-
binsky before House subcommittee.
"Ill be damned" Mr.. Dubinsky said,
"if will support the idea of the pro-
fessional Negro, the professional Jew,
the professional Italian, that a man
should be union officer because of his
race, color or creed. He should be an
officer on his merits, ability, character"

JoIopies for Maryland

One way or another, Maryland con-
tinues to pay heavy toll for its legis-
lature's stubborn refusal to enact a
compulsory auto inspection law. In
addition to the question of safety raised
by defective vehicles, there's the re-
current suspicion the State is becoming
a dumping ground for derelict cars
from other States.
Motor Vehicles Commissioner Jewell
is convinced that many old cars, falling
to pass inspection in nearby States, are
being dumped on the Maryland market.
He is asking officials in five neighbor-
ing States for serial numbers of con-
demned cars to check against the Mary
land jalopieS.
Like several of his predecessors, Mr..
Jewell believes Maryland is out of step
with the times, and badly needs auto
inspection. Not only is the accident
rate raised by an influx of unsafe cars
these same cars, once they are regis
tered in Maryland, can roam around In
the District, Virginia, Pennsylvania, and
Evening star., 1962-08-28

other States that do have inspection
systems.
One encouraging note is that the
Maryland Commissioner will send his
evidence to a Legislative Council COM
mittee studying the need for Maryland
inspection. The committee, headed by
Senator John Parran of Charles Coun-
ty, is expected to recommend favorable
action to the General Assembly next
January. On past performance, this
doesn't mean great deal, for more than
one bill has died in Annapolis. Perhaps
the dismal prospect that Maryland is
becoming a graveyard for everybody'S
broken down cars will bring some help
full action.

Angry Young Men

1t is easier to understand than to
condone last weeks naval lombard
ment" of Havana by couple of small
boats manned by score or more of
youthful Cubans in exile. Ranging in
age from 19 to %, these were angry
young men-deeply moved by the cap
tivity of their country in the hands of
Castro and communism. So they re-
sorted to direct action, a seven totem
minute fusillade of off-shore Iight-arms
fire on a suburban Havana hotel be-
lieved to be headquarters for Com
muniSt technicians in Cuba. AS a SYM
Dol of protest, the raid had a meaning
that cannot be misunderstood.
In other respects, however, it was
regrettable incident. 1t did not, of
course, inflict any significant damage
upon Havana, and even the raiders
themselves undoubtedly knew it was
nothing but gesture. AS such, however,
it has given Castro and his henchmen
a ready-made opportunity to scream
about aggression and threats of in
vaSion, plus the charge that the attack
was mounted in the "imperialiSt" United
States. Our authorities have done the
correct thing in impounding the vessels
and warning that any launching of
private warfare from our shores is a
violation of law and will be treated as
such. There's no sense in making a
gift of propaganda ammunition to

The third is the case Of
a man who poured boiling
water over a dog so that the
animal was so badly burned

only been postponed.
I am told by the Manager
of the Washington Animal
Rescue League that the last
case of maltreatment of ami
mails to be punished was in
the court of Judge Reeves
four years ago.
The District seems to be
used to cases of purse-Snatch-
ings, the beating and robbery

cases its citizens may not
know Of, 1 hope they will be
interested.

Cruelty to Animals

Perhaps it is only an Anglo
Saxon tradition, but it is my
understanding that the civil
ization of a people can be
measured by its care of its
animals. The District of Col
umbia would rank as highly
civilized if she enforced the
laws now on her list. How
ever, I have been told of re-
cent cases that the law has
not punished. that seem to
have no chance of being pun
ished. All have happened in
the last few months.
One is the case of two cats
tied together and burned to
death. No one has prosecuted
or done anything about this
case.
The second Is the case of
a dog shot through one lung
by a metal dart made from
a bar of a coat-hanger. made
with perfect balance between
its finely sharpened point and

Timely Worninq'

The District and Virginia
Highway Departments have
created the juices in which
they are now Stewing as
far as freeway construction
problems in this area are
concerned. They have engi-
neered themselves into a pre-
dicament and are asking the
taxpayers to bail them out
by paying for an unneceS-
sary connecting link, the
proposed Three Sisters
Bridge, across the Potomac
River.
The freeway construction
problem in this area certain
ly appear to be more than
what was brought out in your
August 81 editorial entitled
Timely Warning" The main
problem seems to be that
the highways as planned for
ultimate 9O/10 financing in
the District and Virginia,
were put on the books with
a considerable amount of
money spent before any
thought was given as to
where or how they would tie
in to other federally fl
nanced highways.
It was stated in your edi-
torial that "if Congress is
going to upset the highway
plans which met Congress
sional requirements for Fed
eral financing. Congress
must also provide a work.
able substitute to meet the
demands of growing traffic"
Congress has not upset
anything that has been
planned and presented com
pletely and thoroughly" 1t
is the "incompleteneSs" Of
the work of the planning Of
ficials of the District and
Virginia, and their lack of
coordination" that have
caused the confusion over
funds.
In the final analysis,
whether it is $3.50 money or
90/10 money, it is all money
from the taxpayers. None of
it is Federal money nor Dis
trict money nor Virginia
money; and the sooner the
public realizes that point the
sooner the public will be bet
ter off, for every time it
hears 1T is being built by
Federal funds" it will realize
that "it is being built from
the pockets of the taxpay-
ers."

AIqerid Still in Turmoil

1t is unlikely that any single days
development of the near future will
provide reliable guide to the longer
course of events in Algeria. The winds
Of change. to which General de Gaulle
once referred, still are blowing across
the North African country in currents
so mixed and unpredictable as to fore
close any confident calculations about
where the power of government even
tually will rest or precisely what form it
will take. At the moment there is
greater threat of chaos than promise
Of order, and there is reason to fear
that more blood will be spilled before
the nation can mobilize its resources
conStructively.
The factionaliSm that prevails now
in Algeria is of an explosive kind, re-
Elected not only in deep rivalries be-
tween civilian political figures but in
an even more ominouS division between
two powerful military elements. 1t was
approximately three weeks ago that
the civilian conflict appeared resolved,
Tor better or for worse, by the emergence
Of militant Vice Premier Ahmed Ben
Bella as chief of a Seven-member Po-
litical Bureau which assumed the au-
thority to supervise "all political ques-
tions," and to be, in short, a de facto
government. Shunted to less important
status was the provisional government
headed by the more moderate Premier
Ben YouSSef Ben Khedda. And scheduled
for next Sunday, September 2, were ma
tional elections to set up a constituent
assembly.
Much of this seeming orderliness
dissolved during the past week end,
when Ben Bella announced that OBJ
struction and divisions within the mil
itary were preventing the carrying out
Of his program. One Of his stronger as
SociateS on the Political Bureau re-
signed and the elections were post
poned indefinitely. From one military
faction, clique Of young officers in
the guerrilla army that actually had
fought most of the long war for inde-
pendence, came bitter anti-French and
anti-WeStern charges, allegations that
the provisional government had favored
'neo-colonialiStS and traitors" and that
the Political Bureau itself had be-
trayed the revolutionary movement.
Rallying to Ben Bellas support was
the other major military faction, the
general staff of Algerias regular army
which sat out the war in Morocco and
TuniSia and even since the wars end
has appeared only in some of the from
tier areas.
Obviously, the power struggle be-
tween individuals and factions is far
from over Meanwhile, fears as to its
outcome have accelerated the departure
of Europeans, whose technical Skills
are essential to the Algerian economy,
and have precluded any likelihood that
needed capital will be committed in the
near future. Whatever happens next
is not apt to mark the end to Algeria'S
agony.

The Real Peril

I was alarmed and con-
cerned over the August 19,
Sunday Star editorial, Space
and the Military" wherein
The Stars preoccupation
with the impracticability of
enemy space orbital bombers
totally obscured the real sig
nificance of the Soviet Vo-
stok capability.
However. in a courageous
editorial re-appraisal, The
Star last Wednesday. in my
opinion. so succinctly iden-
titled the principal question
the question of superiority
that it deserves to be re-
peate5:
But the real question is
whether we will continue to
have the superiority in power
which is essential to a sue
ceSSful deterrent. If we lost
that superiority the day of
anguished decision could
come - the day when We
might have to choose between
capitulation and annihila-
ton"
To expand on the question
of superiority I, as a public
servant who is intimately in
volved in space activities. feel
it necessary to further de-
fine the subject as Tech
biological Superiority.
There is no doubt that the
performance of Vostok III
and Vostok w has reaf-
firmed Soviet advanced tech
nology in space and as The
Star editorials noted, to in
clude a capability for spa
tial armaments.
I do not propose (nor do
believe that our military
services PROPOSE that we un-
dertake a crash program to
build bomb-carrying space
ships, but I have and 1 do
propose that we re-asseSs our
space program and reorient
it toward archaeological su-
periority so as to better serve
the security needs of the Ma
ton. l firmly believe that
the massive potential Of the
Soviet military threat must
be reflected in our space pro-
gram to a much greater eX-
tent than now is the case. I
have believed this for a long
time. Some of my colleagues
and I are on record urging
increased emphasis of our
national security objectives
in the space program.
1t is always difficult to
visualize the long range po-
tential of new inventions.
This is especially true today
when the presence of men in
space has given a new di-
mension to our defense prob
lens. Some of us in Congress
believe that there are ma
tional security implications
in the advancing Sovie t
achievements and I agree
with the view of my dis
tinguiShed colleagues in the
Senate, that our safety as
free men and as a Nation
depends upon the develop
ment of an ability to defend
ourselves and our positions
in space.
We should and we must
re-energize our capabilities to
maintain our superiority -
primarily in technology as
we'll as our other resources
to provide for our common
defense in every area of con-
flict with communism, in
cluding the space region.

Never Say Die

For the umpteenth time we have
come up with test ban proposal, the
Russians have rejected it, and the world,
somehow, goes along pretty much as
before.
On this most recent occasion, the
Anglo-American offer was for a ban
on nuClear tests in the atmosphere,
under water and in space. Our scientists
can detect, or believe they can detect,
any such tests without resort to any
special policing or inspection arrange
mentS within the Soviet Union. Such
an agreement conceivably might dis
courage some other countries from
strenuous and costly efforts to become
members Of the nuclear club, and would
certainly offer protection to mankind
in the future from radioactive fallout.
But the Russian needle was in the IA
miliar groove-their answer, in effect,
was another NO"
The sticking point, If one believes
that the Kremlin might agree to and
abide by test ban under any circum-
stances, involved underground tests. We
have insisted that there must be ade-
quate provision for on-Site inspection
Of suspicious underground disturbances,
for without such provision there can be
no assured distinction at least in many
instances, between earth tremors and
subterranean nuclear blasts. But the
Russians will have none Of this. They
say we must agree to ban on all test
Ing, without any inspections, and that
they are not interested in anything
other than this. The United States has
not been willing to play this little game
for the simple and amply justified
reason that we do not trust them. We
hope and believe that the Kennedy ad-
niniStration will stand firm on this
position-that it will not, for the sake
of a piece of paper called a test ban
treaty, abandon its inSiStence on ade-
Quate means to check on suspicious
underground disturbances. The Krem-
Inns clamor about espionage, etc, should
deceive no one. Its unwillingneSS to ac-
cept some degree of on-Site inspection,
plus It's long record of broken pledges,
would make it almost a criminal offense
to risk the security Of this country on
nothing more substantial than another
Soviet promise.
In addition, a new and possibly
ominouS element has entered the pic
ture. Some of our Disarmament Agency
officials have expressed the belief that
Communist China will explode a nuclear
device within matter of months This,
OF course, would not transform Red
China into true nuclear power over
night, any more than in the case of
France and her tests. There is a long,
long road between an initial nuclear
test explosion and an effective stockpile
of weapons with the necessary sophisti-
Gated means of delivering them.
But would we want test ban agree
ment with Russia, even If otherwise
acceptable, as long as France and eSpe-
cially Red China were not covered by it?
We doubt it. AS unattractiVe and as
dangerous as might be the alternative
Of the probable proliferation of coun-
tries with some relatively small nuclear
capability, this might be less hazardous
than treaty which would tie our hands
while leaving other countries free to
proceed with testing ChinaS capabili-
ties as of now may be severely limited
But Peiping could become real threat
in, say, 20 years from now.

VISTAS IN SCIENCE
Church of Ice in Greenland
By THOMAS R. HENRY

a 50,000-watt nuclear reac-
tor to produce various sorts
OF radiation. This reactor
will produce gamma rays,
neutrons and radio isotopes
for use in medical research
as we'll as in treatment of
Walter Reed patients.
The apparatus is expected
to make significant addi-
tions to the accomplishments
OF the Institute scientists in
both military and civilian
medicine since the end Of
World War II.
Every individual, 1t is ex-
planned. is to some extent
radioactive. He is born that
way. Then from year to year
this radioactivity builds UP
from exposure to ionizing
radiations, from food and
various other sources. The
nature Of the radiation diff
fers for various parts of the
body. Determination of any
unusual build-up with con-
ventional apparatus becomes
very complicated and diff
cult. The new counter is ex-
pected to do away with much
OF this difficulty.
Work on Powder Vaccine
The Institute doctors now
also are at work on develop
ment Of a powder vaccine
with apparently limitless
keeping potentialities at
room temperatures anywhere
in the world. Vaccines now
in distribution are liquid.
They must be kept at con-
slant low temperature and
are likely soon to lose their
potency.
This has been a serious
handicap, especially to the
military forces which cannot
choose tn cir environment
and are likely to lack cold
storage facilities. But, it has
been found, they changed
into powders by a new freeze
drying technique, thus avoid
ing all these difficulties. The
goal is a product which can
be shipped anywhere in the
world and used against any
threatened epidemic without
any worry over potency.
1t is probable, the Institute
doctors say, that many ci-
william physicians do not un-
derStand the necessity of low
temperature and that many
vaccinations in the past have
been essentially useless.

The worlds strangest
church has just been exca-
waited in solid ice in the mid
die of a Greenland glacier.
1t is a 12-foot high, 10
foot wide Gothic vault chap
el. The altar, which weighs
about 700 pounds, was mold
ed into a single block of ice
formed by combining water
with chips hewn from the
apse. This process formed
the solid, modernistic struc-
ture.
Candlesticks used in serv-
ices are of pure crystalline
ice blasted from Lake Tuto,
the source of fresh water for
Camp Tuto. the Army'S set
up on the Greenland ice cap.
After being hand rubbed
they are as clear as fine
glass.
Chaplain Directed Work
The chamber in which the
chapel is located is especially
well lighted. A thick coating
of hoar frost causes the
walls and ceiling of the room
to appear opaque. Beautiful
hues of blue and green are
given off by translucent t
lights, shining through the
frost and ice and illuminat-
ing the whole room.
This unique place Of wor-
ship, built under the direc-
ton of Camp Tuto chaplain,
Capt. Joseph w. Coshan, was
completed by volunteers in a
little over week. 1t will be
retained as a permanent fea-
ture of the Arctic camp.
The ice tunnel in which it
is located is used for various
projects by the Army's Cold

neering Laboratories.
