US. Fires First
 .Nuclear Test Shot Over Pacific Ocean

WkACT11isATlON hf-l llE AtUIflc Energy Commission announced to- day the United States fired the first shot of its nuclear test series in the Pacific this morning.
 The shot, described as being in the intermediate yield range, was set off about 10:45 am. EST in the vicinity of Christmas Island
 By intermediate range the AEC means a yield equal to that of more than 10000 tons and less than l million tons of TINT.
 The AEC said the device was dropped from an airpIane.
 The test series started few hours after President Kennedy flashed the go ahead signal yes terday after months of effort had failed to get Russia to agree to 2 reliable nuclear weapons test ban State Department officials de. clared as the test began that ths United States would still be willing to halt the series at any time tha Russia would sign firm test bar agreement with dependable iss spection provisions.
 Meanwhile the State Departmen disclosed that Japanese Ambassa. dor Kockiro Asakai had called al the department yesterday and for mally registered his country's strong objection to any kind oi nuclear testing.
 U s officials alss, isa fact, fact hssaeed fel a wave of protests around tht
 world. But the US Information Agency said a recent survey 0 editorial comment and publi, opinion in many foreign countrie. showed a less violent criticism oI the new US series than the criti- cisrn which Russia drew when il breke three-year-old test mora toriurn last Sept. l.
 State Department press officer Lincoln White declared the United States was going into the new series of test reluctantly but said it had no choice except to fulfill it's responsibilities as the main de- fender of the non-C Communist world
 Kennedy made the decision to go ahead on the grounds that fl the Soviets continued testing and the United States failed to do sc the Soviets might make a break through in nuclear weapons de velopment which would give them an edge in the deadly arms race.

Gov. Egan Will Seek Second Term

ANCHORAGE tR = Gov. Wm- Egan gave formal notice last night that he would seek a second term as governor of Alaska. The expected announcement came in a televised address before some 200 persons attending testi- monial dinner for the governor. Egan, AT, was elected the first
 governor of the new State of Alas ka in 1858.
 He joins a field of four other Democrats seeking the guberna- toria1 nomination. They are John L. Rader and George H. Eyer, both of Anchorage, Warren A. Tay Tor of Fairbanks and David New ton Boyer of Anchor Point. l Tn these critical years, Alaska must have a government that Is
 responsive to the wishes of the
 people, d government with integ- lrity beyond question, govern ment that is not afraid to gear l itself to today's needs and tonnor- 1 rows promises" Egan said.
 Tt needs an honest government,
 lone of purpose and one of vision 1 T certainly do not believe that
 am the only man in Alaska who 1 can administer such government
 'But I believe that during my l term as chief executive Of Alaska IT have administered a government.
 that closely adheres to these goals l in both principle and practice.
 ssI know that I shall continue
 to do So if given the opportunity. . 1 Egan, native born Alaskan,
 served five terms in the Territorial < House of Representatives, finally
 serving as Speaker fIr was eier ted to the Territorial Senate for a four-year term in 1853.
 He was elected delegate to the sIse IState Constitutional Convention
 land subsequently, was named president of that convention. Tn 1856, he was elected as oIfe of three Alaskans to go to the na- tion's capital as an Alaska Ten nessee Plan senator to work and fight for statehood.
 After statehood was achieved, Egan entered the race as Demo cratic candidate for governor and, in the 1858 general election, de- feated Republican John Butrovlcn | of Fairbanks for the first gover-
 norship.
 sIn the forthcoming campaign, l I intend to detail the accomplish
 ments of both my administration and the Democratic party since we
 were accorded your trust in 1858, 1" Egan said last night
 q intend to ask the people for their endorsement of what we have achieved and what we propose for the next four years of Alaska's history"

a Privilege

After the Seattle Worlds Fair
is over and we take time to
look back over the days of
much significance to the future
of the human race, we shall
have the cOnsOling thought that
we have been given the privil-
ege to participate in this mo-
mentouS event.
When we say "We," we mean
the FilipinoS in the United
States - we who do not repre-
sent any government but our
own identity as a people from
the Philippines, or who are off
springs of FilipinOs whether
born in the Philippines or t.
We are given this privilege of
participation through our con-
tribution of a queen, elected
from among us, to be hOnored
with all the pOmp and pageant
~ of royalty during the week
designated as "PhiIip p i n S
Week" in the Seattle Worlds
Fair.
This, among others, will be
our contribution to Filipino par
ticipatiOn in the Seattle Worlds
Fair. Our Queen will be sup
ported, not by any government
appropriation, but by our own
efforts = the dollars that we
donate voluntarily to the var
ious candidates for this honor.
Again we say it is a privil-
ege to give this modest cOntri-
button TO the Filipino participa-
ton in the Seattle Worlds Fair,
and we wish now to acknowl-
edge our gratefulness to the
Management of the Seattle
Worlds Fair for giving us this
recognition as a minority group
in this country.
The Queen Contest, which
admits candidates from all parts
Of the United States, is being
conducted by this publication
as a public service and a mod
est help in making philippines
Week" in the Seattle Worlds
Fair worthwhile and significant.

GREATER INVENTION

sian space snip, is the greatest
invention of man. Language
distinguishes man from the an
imals. Language makes civil
cation possible, and enables its
transmission from one society
to another and from generation
to generation through diffusion
and accumulation. Without Ian
guage, hardly any other inven-
ton is conceivable.
But, like the all-encompas-
sing air we breathe, we take
language for granted, blessedly
unaware of its lsuper-Himalay-
an significance.
We will be aware of this if,
for a moment, we pause and
consider the massive and glo-
bal catastrophy that would en-
gulf mankind if all Of sudden
we forgot language.
Communication, transpo + "a
ton, industry, the Navy, Army
and Air Force, the hospitals
and the machinery of govern
ment would be wiped out be-
cause of starvation, pestilence,
confusion, etc.
In one generation the remn-
ant of the people would revert
to savagery. They would lose
their humanity and become
brutes, for human nature, is So
cially, not biologically trans
mitted, as Illustrated by ferral
men, who, after birth, have been
cut off from human society.
For instance, KaHlala and her
brother, Amala, aged about 8
and LIP years respectively,
who were found in the company
of wolves in Midnapore, India,
in October, 1920, grunted and
growled, but could not speak.
They walked on all tours and
resisted all efforts to dress
them. They slept in the day
and went around at night. At
first, they ate nothing except
raw meat. On March 6, 1922,
Kamala found a dead chicken
in the premises of the orphan
age which housed the children.
She ate it all, according to ]. A.
L. Singh and R. M. Zinzz, Wolf
Children and Ferral Man, Harp
ers, 1942.
Kamala had been in the or
phanage for 18 months before
she stood erect for the first
time and it was long afterward
before she could walk norm
ally.
1t was years after Amala died
that Kamala shifted completely
from Wolf-like to human-like
be havior.
In a specific sense, a certain
invention is a personal and a
national invention, but in a gen
eral sense. every invention is a
world invention. 1t is based on
the accumulated culture, science
and technology of the world.

For instance, the alphabet with
which the Russians, the Hindus,
the Americans and the Euro
peans write, is a Phoenician in
vention and the so-called Arab
ic numerals with which they
compute and solve problems in
mathematics, chemistry, phys
les, astronomy, etc., is of Hindu
origin. We called them Arabic
numerals because the Arabs in
the hey day of Saracen civiliza-
ton introduced them from the
East to the barbaric Europe.
The invention of the zero -
the representation of nothing
is rated by anthropologists as a
great invention a credit
which belongs to the Hindus of
Asia and the Mayas of Yucca
tan, Mexico.
InterculturaI Borrowings
l dare say that the Ameri-
cans and the Russians could
not have invented al this time
their intercontinental missiles,
their space satellites and their
hydrogen bombs without the
zero and the other Hindu. num-
erals = not to mention the
Phoenician alphabets and the
basic principles in electronics
that have been discovered by
Europeans from the time of
Madame Currie in 1896 to 1884,
which America and Russia ap-
piled.
The indebtedness of Ameri-
can and Russian nuclear re-
search to German science is
dramatized by the fact that
after World War II, they exc
cuted Nazi generals, but saved
and scrambled for German sci
entists. Today, hundreds of Ger
man scientists and technicians
are working in the laboratories
and shops of Russia and the u.
S. A. The German v. bomb,
which devastated London, is the
direct ancestor of the intercon-
tinental ballistic missile, the
Sputnik and other space ships.
The printing press, which
made, possible the dissemination
of knowledge, was invented by
Gutenberg for Europe but a
well documented treatise, pub
lished by Columbia University,
states that it was made possible
because of the Chinese inven-
ton of paper and the movable
type and also of coeVal inven-
lions which 90 back to Egypt.
According to Herodutus, the
taking of census of the popula-
ton and wealth of Egypt in
1850 BIC. was preliminary to
the construction of the pyra-
mids. 1t was the Chinese, how
ever, who started maintaining
fairly reliable census records.
Under the Hans dynasty, about
a century and a half after
Christ, ten censuses recorded
