Russia Leads
U. S. In Atomic
I )c\ dopment
PHILADELPHIA </P)—A Nobel
prize winning scientist pitched a
verbal bombshell at the American
people Saturday. He said the Rus
sians are moving faster than the
U. S in atomic development and
soon may be ahead of us.
And Dr. Harold C. Urey, the
scientist honored for discovering
heavy hydrogen, had a ready
made reason:
The U. S. is too concerned about
military secrecy.
“It is time that we take stock of
this situation and recognize it for
what it is.” Dr. Urey declared,
“and it is time that we stop witch
hunting about the ‘secret’ which
obviously now does not exist.”
He gave his views at a press
conference Friday. So did Lt. Gen.
Leslie R. Groves, wartime atomic
research chief.
Dr. Urey, said “I would fire ev
ery security Officer in every atom
ic plant and laboratory in the
United States with the exception
of Los Alamos. (Los Alamos was
excepted, he said, because-of its
military detail value"*. Si
“Childish,” scoffed Gen. Groves.
The general said U. S. atomic
secrecy since World War II was
needed to give European nations
“breathing time for recovery. We
would have shortened the time for
Russian discovery of the atom
bomb by making our information
available.
Bill Wood, agent for the Alaska
Steamship Co. states that most of
the heavy deck load consisting
mainly of equipment for the
breakwater is now off the Coastal
Honarch, as well as perishables.
The handling of general cargo
will probably get under way some
time tonight if the weather con
tinues to be fair.
AN APOLOGY IS NOT
ENOUGH . . When you acci
dentally break something be
longing to your hostess, you
should replace it.

You can make your school
classes glamor sessions, if you
want to, advises beauty expert
Ann Delafield. She says there are
lots of exercises that can be done
at your desk while you concentrate
on medieval history of chemistry.
Today’s teen-ager, says Miss
Delafield, has a triple-fold prob
lem because hairline, hemline and
heel-line all are going up. Girls in
her beauty success school are be
ing taught to get exposed neck
lines in condition and to be more
conscious of legs and ankles, long
hidden under dungarees.
Here are some exercises suggest
ed by Miss Delafield. You can do
them at your desk:
Necks can be lovelier if you will
push up neck at where your ton
sils are (or were) towards the ceil
ing, all the while holding chin.
Push right tonsil up toward ceil
ing, then left. This exercise sounds
a little startling at first, but you’ll
find if you do it just that way, and
as often as possible, it will give
your neck a new lift.
A waistline desk exercise sug
gested by Miss Delafield is this:
Become conscious of your ribs
near backbone. Lift left ribs up
away from left hip, then right
away from right hip. then left,
then right, left, right, left right
and hold. If you can hold this lift
duringthe rest of the class period,
you can’t help, but make school a
charm session.
Girls who sit with legs crossed
Major General L. P. Whitten
and party of eight arrived here
Saturday for a short visit. General
Whitten is the Newfoundland Base
commander and has been visiting
the Arctic Indoctrination school
and conferring with the faculty.
He left for Anchorage on Sunday.
Mabel Jonish. who has been in
the dry goods department of the
N. C. Co. store for several years
has taken over the duties of Mrs.
Herb Jenks at the Federal Jail,
where she will be in charge of the
cooking.
are asking in later years for hol
low thighs says Miss Delafield.
Says she:
"When young girls sit with legs
crossed, they compress tissues
sues and ruin legs for bathing
suits. This congested tissue results
in bunchy, baggy thighs and knees
when older."
Whenever teacher disappears
from the room and leaves you with
time on your hands, or even when
you are walking down a corridor
to the next class is a good time to
balance a book on your head, a
good way to train yourself to keep
chin up, head high, back straight.
