Egypt's Rock Pile

CAIRO, (Delayed). —Egypt is one country that has benefited from the war. King Farouk, a gay young blade, even was presented with a nifty twomotored C-47, as was King Ibn Saud of Arabia, Sultan Sidi Mohammed of Morocco drew a Packarg car. North Africa is important, you ® know, with its key bases on the only present through air line to China, King Farouk felt so good about his gift that he promptly started to grow a flowing beard like that of King Ibn Saud. When King Ihn Saud heard about it, he voiced his objections, and King Farouk parted with his adornment. King Ibn Saud showed him who was boss man. As in all Arabic countries, the Egyptian who works the land is very poor, but the 12,000,000 peasant-farmers at least have something to ‘work in the fertile valley of the Nile and the delta’ below Cairo. You see none of the signs of famine so obvious in drought-stricken, French-dominated Morocco. Refugees, members of the allied forces and whatnot, have swelled Cairo's population from the 800,000 of 1939 to a figure crowding 2,500,000. The boom may be superficial, but Cairo will always be linked with the Suez Canal, which is the ftinnel of sea-borne traffic just as the strange. city’s three airports, including American-built and operated Payne Field, are the funnel for all air-borne traffic between Europe, Asia and the Far East. :

LIKE EVERY place else, Cairo is, of course, suffering somewhat from the high cost of living. Meat, sugar, tea, gas and oil are rationed, but are by no means unobtainable. You may have meat four days a week. The military confines the drinking of alcoholic beverages to the hours from 12 to 2:30 and 6 to 10 p. m.

ness. “Getting in” for them means only one thing, and that is control—a polite word for monopoly. The instinct of this age is just as dead set against industrial monopoly as it is against the political monopoly of dictatorship. Air and surface transportation acilities are essentially coms= petitive, and we've got to keep hem competitive in behalf of our own interests. The air people don’t fear competition, but obviously the surface transportation interests do. The more these two major diisions of transportation—air and kurface—compete, the better off hre we, the people. The only thing we've got to vorry about is that the competition is kept within easonable bounds and not. permitted to become thless to the jeopardy of public welfare. The keener the competition for the privilege of carryng us and our merchandise, the better and cheaper ransportation service we get.

chances of any of them going haywire and having trouble with the natives. There are better hotels.in Cairo than Shepheard’s, but stopping there is the thing to do, and I, like the rest, found it far below ‘standard. They say you haven't lived until you have sat on the Shepheard's front porch and drank Scotch, but I found it tasted the same there as elsewhere. Shepheard’s front porch was the center of political and military intrigue just previous to and throughout the desert war. " Cairo is unlike any other place. It has a flavor of both east and west. The city is filled with stores of all kinds, banks, book shops and shiny night clubs. In addition to Shepheard’s, night life is lively at the Continental and the Mena house at the base of the Pyramids. The better night spots are the Arizona, Auberge des Pyramides, Maxim's, Doll’s, the Egyptian cabaret Badia, Auberge du Turf, Hotel des Roses and Helmeih Palace. You never saw such hootchie kootchie assyou see here. You may buy furs or cars, watches or shees, but prices have been affected by the war. Every schoolboy knows of the three Pyramids on the edge of the city -and where the desert begins. Actually there are nine. :

Pyramids, Sphinx Disappointing THE SPHINX sits before the Pyramids and looks down on the Nile. She literally has had her face lifted, sacks of sand being placed below her double chin when there was danger of her being bombed. There her head rests, a look of thorough contentment upon her face, After all I had read of them, I was disappointed in the Pyramids and the Spinx. The highest Pyramid stands 485 feet. The Sphinx’s head stands 75 feet and the body of the lion is 150 feet long. I wasn't awed as I expected to be. It is a dusty old place, and you come away from there thinking that you have seen nothing more than another old rock pile. Cairo is a friendly city, where dragomen, or accredited guides, act as ‘shills for merchants who are out of this world, Dragomen get 15 per cent and you have to curb yourself or they'll sell you everything.

. Controlled by a rail or steamship company, can you conceive of the airline involved over setting new records in operation efficiency? Certainly not, especially since every appropriation sought to improve efficiency would have to be approved by men who don't know the aviation business. No, it's not in the wood. Airline transportation is still a new industry. And the only thing that will ever bring it to maturity is the pioneering. drive of men who are interested in aviation, and in nothing else. When the early canal, rail and shipping pioneers were competing they battled one another fiercely. Finally each one obtained the business to which it was entitled, and the public benefited.

History Will Repeat HISTORY will repeat itself, with the steamships and rails carrying the passenger and freight business they can carry at a profit and the airlines transporting those payloads adapted to air movement and ‘that must be moved: in a hurry and can afford to pay for the service. There's one thing the rail and steamship tycoons seem to ignore. That is that the airlines, relieving them of the hurry traffic, will permit them to slow down their boats and trains to speeds where the wear and tear on their machinery and their fuel consumption will enable them to earn a profit. A few knots speed-up of a steamship can double the fuel costs, and about the same thing can be said for a railroad train. Air transportation will not replace or scrap a single steamship or rail facility. It will, however, prove to be an essential auxiliary in every. phase to surface transportation. What is fit to live, lives. And no man-made law or agreement can change that.

of the rest of the world. As things become more plentiful, finally, the OPA could reduce ration points until eventually they are eliminated. So far I have pointed out only the very evident facts about our own needs in this country. But it is not possible to think only about ourselves. For a year, at least, I believe we will also need to consider what is essential in certain foreign nations, so that people may restore health and strength, and go to work in rebuilding their own resources, The German people at the close of the European war were a well-fed -nation, In the coming winter they will - taste some -of-~the hardships .which they meted out to other nations during the war. That is as it should be, and I have less concern for what will happen in Germany during one year of hardship that I have about the countries like France, Italy, Holland and all the other conquered nations. They have had long years of starvation diet and hardship of every kind. If they are again to become strong and valuable assets in the family of nations, now is

The: University of Chicago has always been a center of research on atomic nuclei which is the basis of all work on atom-smashing or the release of atomic energy. ” » EJ

ON°MANY visits to the university during the past 20 years, I discussed the subject with such pioneers in the field as Dr. W. D. Harkins, Dr. Arthur Compton, also a Nobel prize winner, and others. The great difficulty in the early days of atom-smashing was to deliver a direct hit on the nucleus. Lord Rutherford, pioneer in. atomsmashing in 1919, found that he had to shoot a million subatomic particles released from radium- to

nucleus. - As late as 1934, this discouraging feature caused Prof. Albert Einstein himself to doubt whether scientists would ever release the energy of the atom on a commercial scale. " » 2

“THAT year, at the annual meetfng of the American Association for the Advancement of Science in Pittsburgh, Dr. Einstein told a group of us; “It is like trying to. shoot birds in the dark in a country where there are not many birds in the sky.” But the whole picture was changed by Dr. Fermi, who found that what was needed was a particular kind ef subatomic projectile. Instead of the high-speed ‘electri

When a slow neutron hits an atom of Uranium-235, the atom breaks in two, releasing a tremendous. amount of energy and another slow neutron which sets: off the next atom, thus starting the chain or “firecracker” reaction. I have dwelt at some length on Prof. Fermi's contribution in order to make clear the relationship of scientific research to progress. I wrote a great many articles about Fermi and slow neutrons and the like when he was performing his first experiments and I frequently met people who were impatient with what they chose to regard as a sort of highbrow boon-doggling.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 17, 1945

DURING the war years, the nation spent two billion dollars on the atomic energy bomb. We are now faced squarely with the question of

ing research not only on the atomic energy problem, but all scientific problems. Just a few weeks before the first atomic energy bomb fell on Japan Dr, Vannevar Bush, director of the office of scientific research and development, presented to President Truman his report on post-war scientific research. In it Dr. Bush urged the creation of a national research foundation by the congress of the United States. Through such a foundation he looks forward to maintaining for the nation the benefits of accelerated scientific research such as were enjoyed during the war, = s n

THE NEW national research foundation would function by making contracts with laboratories of schools, universities, research institutions, industrial concerns, etc., for research on specified problems. During the war the office of scientific research and development functioned on this basis. More than 3000 such contracts were made with more than 300 laboratories. Scme T7000 scientists worked on these contracts. Out of them came not only information needed for the atomic

The scene shows part of the campus of the University of Chicago, where researches on atomic energy will continue in the new institute of nuclear studies.

advances that played their part in the electrical gun-pointer, submarine detection apparatus, etc. 8 ” NM THE PROGRAM suggested by Dr. Bush is very modest indeed when compared with the two billion dollars spent on the atomic energy bomb. He would have congress make available a budget of some $10,000,000 a year for basic research in physics, chemistry, biology, etc., and another $5,000,000 a year for medical research. Eventually this would be stepped up to $50,000,000 a year for basic scientific research and $20,000,000 a year for medical research. With the knowledge of the atomic energy bomb before us, many per-

sons will wonder if this is enough.

Perhaps congress should spend $10,000,000 a year on that subject alone. 2 2 ”

PRESIDENT TRUMAN has announced the intention of this country, Great Britain and Canada to constitute themselves trustees for the secret of the atomic energy bomb. At the present time, there is no intention of giving away the secret. But it is important to understand that all the researches done before Pearl Harbor were made public and that we must expect scientists in all parts of the world to begin research on the same subject.

FROM now on the nation must have "a positive peacetime program for fin&ncing scientific research. Dr. Bush believes that this research is best conducted in the colleges and universities but the scale on which research in such subjects as atomic research must be conducted, means that only the nation as a whole can support it on an adequate scale. i#The action of the University of Chicago undoubtedly will be duplicated elsewhere. The University of California, for example, was a great center of study for the atomic nucleus before world war II. So was Columbia university, M. I. T. and Harvard university, to name only a few.

NOT ONLY must the work of such institutions be encouraged but young students must be encouraged and financed to enter scientific] fields and devote their lives to them. In his report to President Truman Dr. Bush suggested the expenditure of $30,000,000 a year to provide scholarships for high school students capable of entering the field of scientific research.

In order to see clearly it is necessary for both eyes to see the object together, If ‘we fail to fuse the two images, we see double. Cross-eyed children see all right with one eye, but find it difficult to see with both, as the poor eye does not line up with the good eye. Actually we see with the brain and not with the eyes. There is a spot in the back of the brain to which images received by the eyes afe carried by the nerves. ” » s WHEN the brain receives fuzzy images, it has the ability to dim the impulses from one eye so that in time this eye goes blind from disuse even: though it looks clear from the outside. The unused eye pulls out of line and stays crossed. Early treatment of cross-eyes cone sists of covering the sound eye to make the child use the poor eye. The patch is taken off from time to time.

By FRED W. PERKINS S.ripps-Howard Staff Writer DETROIT, Aug. 17—Both labor and management in this recone version laboratory are putting the ° finger on Uncle Sam as the party to blame if the road back to peace production and plenty of .jobs is long and bumpy.

BUT ON one set of figures there is substantial agreement among Detroit industrialists as well as labor leaders—that the jobless in this industrial area will run in excess of 250,000 until the big face tories are back on peacetime proe duction, ‘That estimate was made first by R. J. Thomas, president of the C. L O. United Automobile Workers. It is thought to be abouts right by George Romney, general manager of the Automobile Manufacturers’ Association, and by Ede ward L.
