Oppenheimer Case Review Urged On Ike Noted Scientists Call On President For Review Os Case WASHINGTON. (INS) — Ten noted scientists called on President Eisenhow'er today to rtfview the case of Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer on grounds that a “purge of a loyal scientist ... is a sure road to national suicide." . The ten, including all of the officers of the Federation of American scientists, urged the President In an “open letter” to study the security system under which Oppenheimer was susperided as a security risk by the Atomic Energy „commission. The group charged that the scientist was “purged” for frank advice” and added: "such a policy, if continued, will eliminate the men of independent mind from our defense establishments." They strongly condemned the two-to»one finding of a special AEC board that labeled Oppenheimer "loyal” and ‘discreet” but said he was not entitled to have acees to atomic secrets as a consultant. Oppenheimer, "father” of the nation’s first A-bomb, has appealed to the five-member Atomic Entergy commission itself for a review of the board's finding. The scientists declared: "there is a great need to clarify what is meant by a ’security rtai’ - we believe a man should be considered a security risk only if there is substantial evidence to indicate that he might, either wilfully or inadvertently, transmit classified information to unauthorised personnel. “The record of a man’s associations is of use in this determination only as circumstantial evidence, and suspect associations by themselves should not constitute a security risk if a man’s reliability is clearly demonstrable on other grounds.” The signers charged: “the present personnel security program has severely damaged the vitality of .. . scientific research and . . development." • • ♦ If you nave something to sell or rooms for rent, try a Democrat Wapt Ad.

Bickering In Egypt Over Discoveries Scientists Bicker Over Discoveries CAIRO (INS>— Scientific bickering today replaced the excitement which swept Egypt Mst week When the discovery of an ancient funeral ship was followed by the uncover ing of a tomb believed to be 47 centuries old. .Egyptian Archaeologist Zakaria Goneim scheduled a news conference today after other experts expressed doubts about the sarcophagus he unearthed eight days ago. But. at the same time. Goneim stated his own doubts about the solar funeral ship of the Pharaoh Cheops which another egyptologist, Kamal El-malakh, found behlde the great 1 * pyramid at Giza last month. .Malakh had described the odor of sandlewood and oils which, he said, had been sealed in the ship 5,000 years ago and which were apparent when the crypt first was opened. Goneim said those strong smells ; were "a bad sign” the buried chamlwr of Chuops might have been looted by ancient grave robbers and then d again by some later ruler. In contrast, he added, there was no odor when lie unsealed the underground vault.at Sakkara and found the alabaster sarcophagus. This fact, Goneim added, “constituted an element in favor of its i being really an unspoiled third dynasty Sarcophagus.” Meanwhile, the London Dally Mail reported in a dispatch from Cairo, that serious differences had risen between .Malakh and Mustaj h Amer, director o' Egypt’s department of antiquities. The London newspaper said .Amer proposed a five-man committee of experts to hahdle the delicate work of exhuming the funeral ship, with Dr. Abu Bakh of tlie antiquities. department as chairman and Malakh as a member. The Daily Mail said Malakh rejected the proposal, declaring that “I made the discoveries and now you want to take the limelight for yourselves.” Goneim believes that the sarcophagus. which he hopes to" open shortly, may contain the mummy of Pharaoh Sanakht who ruled briefly in the dimly-known years of the third dynasty before the art and science of .Egypt’s ancient civilization reached its fullest flower .. ..

Express Optimism On Transport Strike »Possible Break In Indianapolis Strike INDIANAPOLIS (INS) — Mild optimism for settlement ‘of -the Indianapolis bus strike was evident us commissioner Clement J. Murphy, of .Milwaukee, chairman of the negotiation panel returned to Indianapolis today. “ - Observers said that a break in the 37-duy-old strike -may.. come if agreement can be readied on the fate of 45 discharged employes of the Transit Terminal building, A mass meeting of members of the t AFL Street Railway and Motor Coach Union voted unanimously to reject any strike settlement unless the 45 building service workers are reinstated. They were fired on LMay 19 for ignoring the utility's ultimatum to return to work a,t once. A private contractor now services the building. He was hired alter health officials gave the company 48 hours to clean up the building. ' There was belief that the union would recede somewhat from its demand for a wage hike of 15 cents per hour which the company officials maintain cannot be met unless bus fares are increased. The utility, however, is considering abandonment of owl car services and cuts in daytime schedules that might eliminate 200 of the 1,000 jobs held by the strikers.
