Go Atomic
PRAGUE, <JP> — Two brewerie-1
have bowed to atomic progress in
Czechoslovakia.
The "Official Gazette” carried
an announcement from the minis
try of industry, that four sets of |
buildings, including a brewery at |
Jachimov and one at Ostrov in the i
Karlovy Vary, had been confiscat- j
ed and made part of the Jachimov
Mines, National Corp.
This is the barred border area
where undisclosed amounts of
uranium have been mined in the
last three years. No reporters are
allowed in to check reports that
I the labor is chiefly German from
the Soviet zone of Germany and
that all the engineers and con
trollers are Russian.
The uranium deposits are those
which for years have given the
waters of Karlovy Vary their cur
ative powers.

Halsey Amazed At ,
Air Force Claims

an hour of prayer, asking his fel
low citizens to appeal to God for
permanent peace. The President
spent the week-end with a few
close friends cruising on Chesa
peake Bay in the Residential
yacht.
Fleet Admiral William F. <Bull>
Halsey, speaking in Washington
near the Lincoln Memorial, said
the army, navy and air force—all
three—are necessary for Ameri
ca's defenses and warned against
“over-zealous utterances of the so
called experts” that have criti
cized the navy.
He said he is “amazed” at
claims the huge B-36 bomber is?
“invulnerable’ to lighter inter
ception, adding that the growing
might of the air force has by no
means made the older services un
necessary. He said he still, regards
the aircraft carrier as the “most
potention preserver of peace in
our bag of tricks.”
In addition to the hundreds of
observances at home, there were
many abroad.
In Anzio, Italy, where one of
the bloodiest battles in which
Americans took part in the last
war occurred, Gen. Mark Clark
pledged to Italians that America
“intends to march side by side
with your country until the goal
to complete peace is achieved.'
Firemen Again
Called To Rescue
Three-Y ear-Old
SEATTLE, UP)—Life is a curi
ous and exciting thing for all
three-year-olds.
But for little Susan Ringenberg,
daughter of Lt. Cmdr. and Mrs.
George W. Ringenberg of Kodiak,
Alaska, it’s more than that—it’s
mighty dangerous.
Two months ago the lively girl
fell out of a second-story window
in Kodiak. She suffered a head in
jury, but recovered fully.
Sunday, while she and her
mother visited Susan’s grand
mother, Airs. George C. Aliller.
she locked her self in the bath
room.
For 12 frantic minutes Mrs.
Miller, Mrs. Ringenberg and Mrs.
Miller’s other daughter, Ann,
worked to get her out.
Then Ann got a bright idea.
“Turn on the light switch,” she
called to Susan.
Susan turned the wrong
“switch,” which as her rescuers
hoped, was the door lock.
Firemen who arrived on the
scene a few minutes later found
the little girl free and happy.
Commander Ringenberg, a for
mer football player at the naval
academy in Annapolis, Md., is
still in Kodiak. He will join his
family here shortly.
