These organizations are expending approximately five million dollars annually ' In salaries alone and, according to estimates, the cost of expenses, offices, clerical help, entertainment, food and liquor will amount to 10 times the salaries paid.

During these next three years, therefore, the government faces the grim task of quietly briefing its doctors for a possible atomic war. Proper medical know-hoit is estimated, will reduce fatalities by from 25 to 40 per cent In case of an American Hiroshima. The special atomic medical course will cover the following high points. Casualties from ,an atomic explosion caused by concussion, flying 1. debris, or flash burns. Individuals wtithiir a mile of the bomb blast are exposed to a lethal dose of radioactivity. This Is deadly. No matter how healthy they may appear, it is useless to treat them. Casualties one to three miles from the target center are in serious danger, but can be saved by prompt medical attention. Most dangerous are the deadly gamma rays. These attack the blood cells, causing severe internal hemorrhages. Only blood transfusions on a massive scale can save life. Alpha and beta particles are less dangerous, since they cannot pass through the skin. But they can enter the body through the nose, mouth or a wound. Southern FOR ERP . . . Lewis Douglas, U. 8. ambassador te Great Britain, came bearing charts to congress to warn the legislators that timidity and reluctance to face facts on European aid may lead to incalculable consequences for generics.

WESTBROOK I .Art of Debate Declines IS a fact, deplorable, I suppose, that the art of debate has declined not only in our national congress but also in other forums, to the extent that clamor and yammer now do the work of argument The truth may be that the people always have been incapable of strong, discriminating Judgment and have been governed by their emotions rather than their intelligence in reaching enormous decisions. In the time of our great congressional orators our press was primitive and its circulation was so small that obviously it could reach only a relative few of the literate minority. Inasmuch as there was no radio, it would seem that the influence of the debater! in congress on the opinions of the people must have been theoretical. The radio, by itself, seemed to promise mankind a perfect medium of debate. But, in the bands of people. It was exploited and perverted from its beginning and today, for all its marvelous technical improvement and Its extravagance,' radio la simply a means of enlarging the volume and range of Incoherent, Irrelevant and more and more theatrical outcries. This is a Presidential year, a strange quadrennial moon which always sets us to howling and twitching tike arboreal Caribs making voodoo and things unspeakable.

The west coast is still ip a bad way when It comes to Rose Bowl competition.

Just why good foetball material should be so scarce en the west coast, while extremely good everywhere else, is mystery. But thats the way It Is. In the last three Rose Bowl games.
