Rear Adm. H. Arnold Karo, di. rector of the Coast and Geodetic Survey, said the scientists have perfected a method of measuring magnetic forces in outer space. Instruments using a principle they worked out will be small enough to be carried in earth satellites and moon rockets, he said, and enough to measure magnetic forces which have never before been detected.

The device, perfected by T. J. Stillman of the Survey's Fredericksburg, laboratory, and Dr. P. L.

Bender of the National Bureau of Standards, is called a rubidium magnetometer. It is a tube containing a small quantity of vaporized rubidium, an alkali metal. A beam of light is sent through the tube and the manner in which the light is absorbed indicates the strength of the magnetic forces. STAYTON, Ore.
