not just ordinary dust but radio-

tically the same kind nf charged

When the condition are right

size of the trigger.
'Take the case of the Eastman
Kodak Co. for example." ex-
plained the physicist. "They're lo-
cated in Rochester N.Y. al-
most 3000 miles away from the
atom test ground. Despite the dis-
tance. however Eastman ean de-
tect radiation from an A-blaxt on

ties are warned in advance

guard their film from the radio-

this is charged dust and if it ean

theyve just had tornadoes.
"I'm not saying flatly that thorn
is a connection between the atom
explosion and the tornadoes. But

evidence to make us want to ex-
amine the whole subject. Remem-
ber a small trigger can set off
mighty Mg explosion. And those
floating particles of radioactive

DAM VS. INDIAN VILLAGES
Karl Mundt the plump and
pleasant senator from South Da-
kota didn't count on any opposi-
tion when his wife charmed Post-
master General Summerfield into
going to bat fur Oahe dam when
he sat beside him at a Washing-
ton dinner party.
Thanks to Mrs. Mundt's per-
suasive charm Summerfield used
hi own persuasion on the director
of the budget and got S2S0.000 for
Oahe dam restored to tha budget
on condition the senator from
South Dakota cut 38250000 from
soma other part of the budget.
This Mundt promptly did by slic-
ing 38300000 from the State De-
portment's hard-pressed appropri-
ation. after which he wrote his
constituents: "Mary Mrh. Mundt)
is wondering whether she should
register as a lobbyist or concen-
trate on starting to erect a statue
of Art Summerfield at the Oahe
site."
Despite the senator's enthusi-
asm however ail is not plain sail-
ing frw- Oahe dam. In -tha first
place. South Dakota farmers liv-
ing along the Missouri who will be
flooded out are not happy. Sec-
ond John Foster Dulles' State De-
partment is not happy in fact.
Is boiling mad and determined to
get its cut restored.
Finally and moat interesting of
all. there's a growing tide of oppo-
sition from scientists and histori-
an who point nut that the waters
of Oahe reservoir will flood some
of tha most priceless prehistoric
Indian ruins on the North Ameri-
can continent.

The bones of elephants

years old a total of some M0 In-
dian cities and villages will be
covered up by the waters of Oahe
reservoir never to be recovered.
Mice the dam is built. And scien-
tists suggest that pleasant plump
and popular Senator Mundt might
wait just a roar or two more to
give them time to recover these
priceless treasures.
After all. they reason "the
senator's term doesn't expire un-
til ' J955. and he cornea from a
safely Republican state. Why not
give u more time to recover these
historic relics and also perhaps
let the State Deportment continue
its difficult work of guiding our

Army tanks and trucks.
The U. N. Prisoner of. War Command said (he American-made
vehicles were manned by Republic of Korea
troops.
The command said also that American-made rifles and
machine guns were fired by unkonwn persons" in support
of the escapes.
The tanks battered down nine-foot barbed-wire fences
and the trucks hauled away the freed POWs.
Asked for official comment on the use of U. S.-built tanka
and trucks for a purpose sharply criticized by the U. N.
Command Dr. Karl Hong Kee official South Korean gov-
ernment spokesman told correspondents:
"This government has issued orders to relearn non-

"Wherever these prisoners are held they are to be re-(
leased that is our policy.

The Reds demanded recapture
of the prisoners. They accused the
Allies of conniving with South Ko-
rea in the escapes and bluntly
asked "is the United Nations Com-
mand able to control the South'
