The national lesion chief urged Michigan leaders to support ac tively the organization's proposals to .outlaw the Communist party which he described as "only a springboard for the Kremlin to wage its campaign of lies." O'Neil: said the legion vigor ously supports the house un American activities committee in vestigation and he advocated that the federal law ousting disloyal employes be copied on a state and local scale. While blaming Moscow-domi nated groups-for creating dissen tlon and disorder in Europe, O' Ned said the legion supports the Marshall plan but he believes the U. S. should expand its "voice of America" program. "We must be able to inform the people of Europe- that we are sending them aid at a definite sacrifice in America,'.' he said. Too many people in Europe think we can just pass out assistance with the wave of a hand and they fail to appreciate that it will mean heavier taxes, less food and a higher cost of living in America: O'Neil said the U. S. is spend ing only $12,000,000 a year on broadcasts to Europe while Great Britain,' even under its austerity program, is spending 'three times that much to counter-act Soviet propaganda in Europe. O'Neil also urged an immediate embargo on the shipment of sup plies and machinery to Russia and her satellite countries.

The balance of $20,000 must be raised by the community. Approval from the state office of the U. S. Health department is expected before July 1st. 1948. The Community Hospital here was opened ten years ago. It now has a staff of six physicians all from American Fork and Pleasant Grove, and fifteen nurses. The kitchen and laundry are on the ground floor, with the hospital proper upstairs. An elevator facilitates transportation of patients, meals and laundry. The hospital board members which unanimously approved the filing of the application are William Wil-liam S. Storrs, chairman; Leo G. Meredith, Warren F. Anderson, A. F. Gaisford, and Maylor Glen L.

Housing Bill Insufficient, Avers Bowles WASHINGTON, Dec. 6 (U.R) Chester Bowles, former OPA ad ministrator, said today the Taft Ellender-Wagner housing bill does not go far enough. In a letter to Sen. Robert F. Wagner, D., N. Y., Bowles wrote that "a really all-out housing and slum clearance program is essen tial not only to provide decent shelter for our people, but to build a strong basis under our economy as a whole. "I believe that we need to build 500,000 rented dwelling units each year for the next 10 years, plus SOOtOOO or 900,000 additional homes," Bowles said. "This is a big program but I feel that any thing short of this will fail to meet our objectives."

"I want to do the best I can.' she said. Miss Truman arrived here yes terday after an engagement at Des Moines. She will end her present concert tour in time to be back at the White House for Christmas. "I'll miss singing in church at Independence on Christmas eve," she said. "This will be the fintt time i naven't zor years. The Truman family hasn't any special Christmas tradition, she said, "except dad gets every one up at 8 ajn. to open the packages, which is a little difficult for the ones who've been out Christmas Eve."

Today's debate was wholly pro cedural. The United States, Britain Brit-ain and France agreed to accept a British paper as a ."working paper for future discussion of economic problems. The paper was designed to "supplement, in tne Ugnt of experience, principles contained in the Potsdam agreement." agree-ment." Molotov adamantly refused to use the paper, despite repeated assurances by the three other delegates that it would involve no commitments and would be subject to addition, amendment or deletion. The Soviet delegate insisted, instead, that the council use two old Moscow documents, one of which merely listed 11 major dis agreements at last spring s Mos cow meeting. "I don't see the logic of Mr. Molotov's proposal." Marshall said. "It would appear to be an attempt to; -diffuse or confuse the issues and' not get us anywhere."

New data also is expected on nuclear changes "induced I by DomDarument with various par- ticies." Practically every chemical el ement is made up of atoms of slightly different nuclear weight Tnese atoms are. called Isotopes, and those of any one element are chemically identical despite tneir nuclear differences. The atomic energy commission hag been distributing radio-iso topes unstable atoms which emit subatomic particles and radiation to research institutions since August, 1946. They are manu factured under neutron bombard ment in atomic plies. They,, too, are valuable "tracer" tools In biology, medicine, agriculture, ana industry. But they have two faults lack ing in stable i.e., non-radioactive isotopes. Their radiation is dangerous to living tissue if tne aosage is high enough, and some radio-isotopes disintegrate too rapidly for purposes of lengtny research. For example .half of any given amount of radio copper 64 de cays into something else in 12.8 hours. But the stable isotope. copper 03, does not lose Its iden tity.
