Asks Ike Review Oppenheimer Case Scientists Request Eisenhower Review WSHINGTON (INS) The American federation of seWntiats has called on Weefibht Eisenhower to make a special review pf the federal security pregram. that, bars Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer from access to atomic secrets. The federation’s executive committee said that a program which 'unnecessarily rejects the services of men of great talent” in its quest for 104 percent security "ceases to‘serve its functions properly.” The committee’s statement issued Monday said that “the negative aspects of 'security by exclusion' must be put in perspective against the positive aspects of 'security by achievement’.*

The group declared that the Oppenheimer case appeared to have “run ita full course” with the 4 to 1 decision handed down by the atomic energy commission last Tuesday barring tke atomic scientist from official secrets. However, the scientists added, the verdiet has “not removed the doubts and apprehensions widelyheld by many thoughtful citizens who have examined the issues in this case.” ; To cleat up these “doubts and apprehensions" the committee suggested that Mr. Elsenhower set up what they called "a board of responsible citizens of various backgrounds” to review the security program, ■ The group commented that although the case is procedurally closed except for presidential review “in its effects the case cannot be closed—nor can these effects yet be estimated." It added: “Whether the security of the United States, has gained or lost will depend upon the degree to which the lessons ot the Oppenheimer case are appreciated by officials and the public.**.

towns May Now Be Sprayed To Destroy Chiggers Here is good news for chigger bite sufferers. Lawns can now be sprayed and rendered chigger-free says G. K.Lehker.Purdue extension entomologist. the use of chlordane, lindane or Mlphur. . Chlordane and lindane are both organio insecticides chemically related to DDT. Chlordane usually comes a* a 45 percent concentrate whereas Lifidane emulsion contains 20 percent of the active ingredient. In either case use H pint of th* chemical for each 1,000 square feet of lawn and apply by mixing with enough water to spray the infested area. ... Sulphur Is used at the rate of one pound of the wettable material per 1,000 square feet. It likewise should be mixed with water and applied as a spray. Dusting gras* and shrubbery with sulphur, preferably a dusting grade, also gives good results. - Persons going into chigger infested areas can protect themselves by dusting sulphur into their clothing especially around th* waist and ankle*. The newer type mosquito and insect repellents are also effective. Those containing dimethyl phthalate are among th* best protectants. A bath in soapy water may prevent infestation if taken soon after exposure.
