Show Robeson Barred From Spea(ciiuj To T 'Prevent Bloodshed' PEORIA, 111., April 19 (U.R) Mayor Carl O. Triebel said today that. Paul Robeson, famed negro baritone, was barred from a public pub-lic appearance in Peoria last night "to prevent bloodshed." Robeson charged city authorities authori-ties with "Fascism" comparable to Franco Spain and Nazi Germany. Ger-many. Interviewed in a small frame house on the south side of town, where he spent the night, Robeson said: "I have toenail over the world and the only time I have seen hysteria reach these heights was in Spain under Franco and Germany Ger-many under Hitler."- Robeson said he would return and other prominent people would come to Peoria soon to give the city council "another chance" to "take similar actions." He referred refer-red to a recent city council resolution reso-lution opposing the appearance of "any speaker or artist who is an avowed or active propagandist for UD-American ideology." Told of Robeson's statement about Fascism, Mayor Triebel said: "well. I guess Robeson is a pretty smart boy and he knows about those things. All the council coun-cil and I were trying to do was to prevent riots. I did what I did to prevent bloodshed. I believed be-lieved that trouble would occur if Robeson made an appearance. It was only common sense to: prohibit his appearance. It certainly cer-tainly was not Fascistlc." Originally, Robeson was to have sung in a hall seating more than 1,500. Ticket sales were slow and the concert was cancelled. Soil Building 20-Year Job . WASHINGTON, D. C Making the nation's soil safe for the future fu-ture is a 20-year job under the best conditions, Secretary Clinton P. Anderson declared - recently. And it could easily take two or three times .that long with never-ending never-ending maintenance. For instance, 13 million acres had been terraced by. 1945, the secretary said, but seven times that much remained to be done. Farmers had drained two-thirds of a million acres, but had 66 times as many to go ' Despite seedings of over 27 million acres of range and pasture land; the job was just one-fifth done. Eighteen million crcs had been put under contour practices. But national needs required seven times that many more. Eight times as many acres of range land are in need of proper stocking stock-ing as are now properly stocked. Though there are nearly 100 million acres under complete soil and water conservation treatment, treat-ment, and 316 million acres are being used in carrying out one or more agricultural conservation program practices, agriculture is Still a long way from the permanent perm-anent protection necessary for our4 remaining productive land. This year, less than half the acreage acre-age required to grow such intertilled inter-tilled crops as corn, cotton, and soybeans will be adequately protected. Spring Brings New Woes to Warsaw Occupants to Get First Opportunity the city council adopted its "un-American" "un-American" resolution Tuesday. A citizens committee of 11 persons per-sons appealed to Triebel, who polled the council, found it agreeable, agree-able, and granted Robeson use of a small room in the city hall for a reception. Triebel reversed his decision after the American Legion protested and after Robeson Robe-son told reporters at Decatur, III., that he would appear in Peoria despite "threats of violence" from WASHINGTON TERRACE.

As soon as a diagnosis is made, the patient should be put to bed. George C. Griffith. M.D., in Journal Jour-nal of the American Medical Association As-sociation states that bed rest is imperative and must be continued until all signs of rheumatic fever have disappeared. Rest means keeping quiet in bed, in quiet surroundings, with plenty of opportunity op-portunity for sleep, and some diversion. As the patient improves, im-proves, he Is allowed to move around part of the time Good food and plenty of it Is important. Unless the patient has been seriously ill and has not been, able to eat for some time, vitamin supplements are not necessary. Ascorbic acid (vitamin C), vitamin P and vitamin K have been tried in rheumatic fever without any effect on the course. The drug salicylate eases pain and lessens fever in rheumatic rheu-matic infection in the early stages. Sulfa drugs arc not of value in rheumatic infection. Neither is peniciflin. Although sulfa drugs and penicillin have been tried as preventive measures, their value is still uncertain. Climate Has Little Effect Most parents of children with rheumatic fever have heard that a warm dry climate is beneficial. but rheumatic fever is just as common in subtropical zones as in temperate zones, although the severity of the disease seems to be less. Exposure to sunlight must be 'carefully regulated. During recovery a reconditioning recondition-ing program should be started as soon as the patient is able to co operate.

Kistiakowsky, one of the few men in the world who could put together an atom bomb and then detonate it. ' A war-time expert on explo-j sives, Kistiakowsky now teaches; six classes a week at Harvard: university and works, quietly -in' a small laboratory with the money and rock as the chief mementos,' of his pait in ushering in the-atomic' the-atomic' age. - f Dr. J. Robert Onnenheimer. the atomic physicist in charge of the. atom bomb test. at Los Alamos, N. M., was nervous and afraid the! bomb wouldn't go off. He paced1. the sands and offered to -bet 910 it would be a dud. Kistiakowsky, who had put that first bomb together, . snapped up the wager and then sat up all night in the tower with the bomb in case of last minute sabotage.' Rock Once Sand The bomb went of. Oppenheim- er paid and Kistiakowsky had his first souvenir. The second the rock was picked up later and in-' terests Kistiakowsky because it: was only sand before the explo-i sion. i Kistiakowsky talks little about j the atom bomb and his conncc-; tion with it, but admits: "I know how to make an atomic! bomb from start to finish. I nelp-ed nelp-ed put the first one together with these two little hands." Kistiakowsky, who is 46 and a native of Russia, came by his knowledge through two war-time jobs first as head of the explosives ex-plosives division of the office of scientific research and development develop-ment and then as director of the explosives division of the Los Alamos project of the Manhattan Manhat-tan district. "Aunt Jemima" Explodes Besides the atom bomb, he took a prominent part in developing jet propulsion, buzz bombs, the bazookas and "Aunt Jemima," an explosive that looked and tasted like flour. It was made that way purposely purpose-ly so it could be shipped in large quantities to Chinese patriots at a time when Japanese were allowing al-lowing the shipment of only food and medical supplies. It could be made into a bread and exploded in that form. "To test it," Kistiakowsky said, "we chewed some of it and then took it out and blew up a bridge with it." Kistiakowsky was descended from a line of college professors Victory Awards sunpaV herald Sunday.
