I would like to return to Hollywood in view of the new type of pictures, both educational and religious, now being made.” Ayres, who went to an Oregon conscientious objectors’ camp in 1942 when he refused to carry arms, denied previously published reports that he became a conscientious objector because of his work in the film, “All Quiet on the Western Front."

‘Now Under U. S. Control
WASHINGTON, Oct, 25 (U, P.). ~The United States obtained the services of Germany's best brains
on atomic energy in a series of historic “raids” last June, congressional sources revealed today. Picked teams of the office of strategic services, the so-called “cloak and dagger” organization of World War II, were given major credit for the success of the operations. During the two weeks before the junction of American and Russian armies: at the Elbe river, these sources said, O. 8S, S. teams descended on German research centers and spirited away leading figures in almost every branch of German science. Brought to U. 8. The ‘war department announced on Oct. 1 that German scientists and technicians were being brought here “to ensure that we take full advantage of those significant developments which are deemed vital to our national security.” The Germans, the department said; are being brought here {on a voluntary basis.” The ' congressional . sources believed that “most” German atomic
experts were now here or in U. B. control, including a man who was described as “the world’s leading authority on nuclear fission.” The scientists were believed to in« clude authorities on such other vital subjects as rocket projectiles, jet propulsion, radar and the biological sciences, The experts, it was said, already are working in American laborator=-
ies, including the research centers of the Du Pont Co.
