Atom Risk
Plea Told
By Rickover
BY the Associated Press

Vice Admiral Hyman G. Rick.
over says one Of his superiors
asked him to reduce the radia-
tion shielding on nuclear ships
because the effects of increased
radiation might be helpful to
mankind.
In testimony before the
House Appropriations Commit
tee, given last May but released
only last night, Admiral Rick
over departed from a lengthy
attack on current educational
practices in this country to tell
this story:
"One day one Of my superiors
asked that I reduce the amount
Of radiation shielding in our
nuclear ships. He said I was
using civilian radiation STAN
dards but that in military units,
personnel casualties of 20 to so
per cent were sometimes ac-
cepted.
II told him I was sorry 7
could not do what he asked. Il
couldn't ignore the fact that
where radiation is involved we
are dealing not with just the
health of the men aboard one
ship. but with the gentle future
of mankind.
"The official replied that no
one knew much about evolu-
tion anyway. and that if we
raised radiation exposures we
might find that the resultant
mutations (changes in form,
quality or nature) were helpful
rather than harmful and that
mankind might learn to live
with radiation
"You can see what utter
nonsense this was :"

Rickover Sees
U. 5. Students
ShOrt-Chanued
By the Associated Press

Vice Admiral Hyman G.
Rickover, in another attack on
public school practices, says
American youngsters are being
short-changed in the class
room.
Admiral Rickover, father Of
the atomic submarine but al
most equally well known for his
persistent criticism Of Ameri-
can "educationalists," said this
country should adopt the Brit
ish system Of providing sepa-
rate schools for its brightest
youngsters.
To call this education for
the elite" he said, is nonsense.
In testimony before the
House Appropriations Commit
tee, given last May but released
last night, Admiral Rickover
said United States public
schools have "a built-in bias
against bright youngsters"
The eyes Of American educa-
tors, he said, "are set firmly on
the average pupil. American
education, therefore, moves at
the sSnail's pace of the child
of average ability. average mo-
tivation. average home back
ground.
Bright Child Suffers
Inthis country, Admiral Rick
over said, "the very bright are
looked on as administrative
problems. on par with the
lame and the halt"
British experience, he said,
SHOWS that not only the bright
children but the average and
below-average children as well
profit by being given an educa-
ton that challenges them; this
necessarily requires separate
schooling -"
At another point Admiral
Rickover told the committee:
For some inexplicable reas-
on our educators find it salts
factory to accept separation at
age l8 lin colleges) but not
at II or IL. But IS is too late.
Having sat bored through the
public schools for IL long years
many of our bright children
have lost all intellectual drive
and acquire bad study habits.
What our educators seem
unable to- grasp is that the
teens are the best learning
years. If you force bright
youngsters to waste these years
in the name of democratic
common schooling, you can't
make it UP to them later, even
if you offered them q free
college education"
Call Selves Professionals
"The only people I know" he
said at another point, who call
themselves professionals vet
who entirely reject what their
counterparts abroad are doing
are our educators"
In reply to a question, Ad-
miral Rickover said he believed
American schools should adopt
a curriculum streSsing basic
education and eliminating the
frills. He criticized schools that
spend "a lot Of time teaching
children how to date, how to
answer the telephone, how to
set a table, and all the rest Of
that nonsense"
Admiral Rickover, who said
two years of research went into
his report on British schools,
said that even those shunted
to the lower track come very
close at age IS to the equiva-
lent of a top United States high
school education. Those on the
upper track have at age 1S, he
said, an education which "cor-
responds pretty closely" to the
average college education in
the United States.

AS a result, he said, he has
called off a hearing scheduled

moned to appear.
Mr.. Cordiner and Mr.. CreSap

wants to find out whether GE
and Westinghouse price some
products. such as light bulbs,
so high that they can cut profit
margins on more competitive
products such as appliances,
and thus injure smaller, less
diversified companies.

Joe Stornes, 66, Dies,
Ex-House Member

Joe Starnes, former Con-
gresham from Alabama, died
yesterday after collapsing at an
Interstate Commerce Commits
sion hearing. He was Sc.
Mr.. Starnes was stricken
shortly after taking part in an
argument concerning cross
examination of witness in a
hearing on proposed cuts in
grain freight rates by the

cause of death probably was
coronary thrombosis, the AS

Mr.. Starnes came here Mon

where he was the city at
torney. He also practiced law
there with a son.
He represented Alabama S
5th district in the House of
Representatives from 1885 to
l945, but failed to win the
Democratic nomination for a
sixth term.
Mr.. Starnes, vice chairman
of the Dies committee, which
later became the House Un-
American Activities Committee,
led a campaign during World
War II to outlaw jurisdictional
strikes on grounds they were
Communist-inspired and a
threat to national security.
He also was a former presi-
dent of Civitan International,
a civic organization. He served
