ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH FRIDAY, SFFTFMBFR P'R ST. LOUIS POST-DISPATCH 3B Miss Missouri Competes PLANS OP SCHOOL Scho0' Head WALTER LIPPMANN Solitary Game With Red China FACE MORAL TEST WASHINGTON. THE OFFSHORE ISLANDS AROl'N'D are, it teem, pieces in an elaborate game which is being played for high political stakes. There is no reason to think that the bombardment of Quemoy is part of a plan to invade and conquer Formosa.

Head of New Special District Cites Hopes for Full Service in 3 Years. Singer Mimi Benzell Among 900 Performers in Sept. 26 Event. ncse question there is a sub-' stanlial majority against us. In the days to come, we may find that we have to choose between abstaining, which would be a shattering blow to Chiang's prestige, and inter-, vening, which would be de-: plored and condemned not only by all the uncommitted nations but also bv most of our closer tf .,4 But there is Eood reason to think that the Red Chinese are striking in order to injure the prestige of Chiang Kai-shek, no has com- mitted so many of his troops in the offshore Islands, and at the same time to cause the United States to lose face before the people nf Asia.

The timing of the Red Chinese action is, it Mao teems to me, ignificant. The action is nicely apiilatpri tn romp to a climax just about when the regular session of the General Assembly meets this month in New oik. This, plus the fact that there appears to he no military build-up on the Chinese mainland lor any large action, indicates that the Red Chinese, with Soviet blessing, are en-paged in a political maneuver. Double Guesting: Game. Tf this maneuver succeeded entirely, it could unseat Chiang, it could oust the United States from Formosa, and it could bring Red China into the U.N.

What is the maneuver? One ran only guess, since it is the policy of the Red Chinese, as is the policy of our Gov- i-nment to keep everyone guessing. My own guess, which I cannot prove, is that Peiping and Moscow are pushing us into a dilemma. One fork is to stand by and to let some of the littler Islands fall while Que-mov is battered and blockaded. i I LTt Ifkphoto.

JEFFERSON CITY. Sept Adoption of a new rule ny tin Missouri Supreme Court governing state bar caminations, to require mofe thorough investigation of moral character of lavvvcr candidates, was announced vestcrriay by the court and the Missouri Bar. The rule, to become effective Sept.

15, calls for an inquiry into the moral character of each law student in any school in Missouri or elsewhere if plans to lake the Missouri bar examination. Under the cxKtine rule the moral character of candidates was not investigated until they applied for examination tor licenses. Fred B. llulse. general chair, man of the Missouri Bar Advisory Committees, who will have charge of the investigations, said the purpose nf Hie new rule "is tn assure that only persons of the highest moral character are admitted to the bar." Under the amended rule governing entry into bar examinations, llulse said, about 1000 law school students ho plan In take the Missouri bar examination on graduation, will have to file applications for registration with clerk Marion Spicer, of the Supreme Court, within 90 days of the beginning their law studies this fall.

The students registering for future examinations also will he required to file Iheir finger prints. The moral character of each law student will be thoroughly investigated by one nf the 40 separate judicial circuit cnin-milles of the Missouri bar, llulse said.

This dilemma, which may be the objective of the Communists, is at the same time the work of our friend. Gen. Chiang Kai-shek. It Is he who has locked up such large forces in the island, it may be. against our own recent advice to disengage them.

No Help in U.N In any event, it has been Chiang who chose to stake his future In Formosa on a reckless gamble in the offshore islands. What Chiang wants now and always is to entangle the United States in a full scale war with Red China. We have become involved in a truly entangling alliance, which is now being exploited against us. Our people should note this fact, that when there was trouble in the Middle East, we turned to the United Nations to find the way out. But in the Chinese trouble, Mr.

Dules cannot turn to the United Nations. Indeed, he must avoid the United Nations, For in our Chinese policy, we stand very much alone. Not only do we stand alone. In the game now being played, we have lost the initiative to Peiping. For Mao is free to go after the offshore islands in nibbles rather than in bites.

Wirtz, superintendent of the new district, said today. Wirt, who assumed his duties here last Monday, said that "within two to three years we hope to be in Hie 90 per cent service bracket." The 38-year-old superintendent was previously head of the Rackham School of Special Education at Eastern Michigan College. "The dev elopment of the program ill be dependent on our being able to obtain qualified teachers and sufficient facilities," Wirt, remarked.

Riggest task facing the district's officials at this time, he said, is locating all ol the handicapped children in the county, who probably number between 5000 and 6000. "After that, the most important thing will be to find qualified teachers." The district ill begin classes Monday with 11 teachers, and several teacher helpers, at five centers. A total of 1 16 trainable, mentally handicapped children has registered so far. and there is room for more, Wirt, said. This year the district is handling only the trainable, but not educable.

children. A program to include the educable mentally handicapped, as well as the physically handicapped, is being developed for the 1959- formed district, Wirtz said it is unique in the united States. Other county-wide specifil districts are under the jurisdiction of the county superintendent of schools, he observed. "The advantage here is that we have our own taxing powers and don't have to compete ith the other phases of education for our share of the tax dollar." The superintendent said that teaching the mentally handicapped is generally about twice as costly as teaching normally-endowed children and educating the physically handicapped is about four times as expensive. This is largely because In soecial education the children are divided into smaller groups than in regular schools, thus more teachers are required, he said.

Charles under the Hill-Burton Act has been approved, it was announced yesterday. The Sisters of St. Mary who operate the hospital are embarking on a $2,000,000 expansion project. The immediate goal is to increase the 100-bcd hospital to 200 beds, and eventually to 300 beds. The project will include necessary additional facilities such as operating rooms, nurseries and laboratories.

At present, communities In St. Louis county and St. Charles have pledged $413,577 toward an immediate goal of $500,000 which will be matched by the Sisters of St. Mary. Construction must be be started on the new 100-beri unit, before fhe end of the year to qualify for the Hill-Burton allotment.

LOUIS CE. 1-2690 By JOHN HII.I.ABY Nrw Tlmr Nfwi Srvlr. GENEVA, Sept. 5 A group of physicists working at a European research center announced yesteday they had discovered one of the missing links in the forces that hold the atom together. The discovery relates to the decay or transformation of particles called pi-mesons thrown out when the hard cores of atoms are chipped or smashed inside big accelerating ma- made informally at the second Zalnrpec bert Bernardino, who is in charge of synchro-cyclotron division of the European Council for Nuclear Research.

Headquarters of this joint European research project into fundamental physics are at Meyrin, near Geneva. The discovery was made by five physicists, Tito Fazini and Giuseppi Eidecaro of Italy, Alexander W. Morrison of Britain, Helmut Paul of Austria and Alvin Tollestrup of California Institute of Technology. Pustulated in 1925. According to the theory first postulated by the Japanese physicist Hidcki Yukawa in 1925, the nucleus or core of the atom is composed of bits of tighllv'-packed matter called i cu.i.m.n gl'lllt'l uy iiir iinniHin oscillate as an exchange force uniting the neutrons and posi tively charged protons.

Otherwise the atomic core would fly apart. There are now known to be about 16 fundamental particles and the mesons or pi-mesons not only bind the atomic core together but have a mass intermediate in weight between the atomic core and its encircling electrons. Enr this reason It was assumed that when an atomic force was chipped or smashed in an accelerating machine lor by force of cosmic raysi the pi-mesons would be released and in a fraction of a second would decay into elections. This was what Yukawa predicted. But it was found that instead they decayed into an intermediate particle called a mu-meson and then into an electron.

Existence of the mu-meson could be explained in terms of the complicated equations of fundamental physics, but by all known laws of matter there was no reason why researchers should not occasionally find a ADYFjnTSEMF.YT People50 to 80 Tear Out This Ad and mail it today to find out how you can still apply for a $1,000 life in surance policy to neip take care 0f fjnai expenses without burdening your family.

Some plunged through a battery of particle counters where physicists were able to delect what happened to them. In the split-second decay period they were delighted to get two blips or pulses instead of the normal three.

The two indicated that the meson has become an electron without providing the extra blip of the mu-meson stage. This was Yukawa's theory in action. The experiment has been repeated again and again and the direct decay occurs, it has been found, about once in 10.0000 times, which Is approximately the relationship needed to regularize the mechanics of the decay theory. It ties in neatly with the theory of distribution of forces inside the atom. In New York reservations were expressed by Columbia I University physicists concern- ing the discovery.

1 Prof, Jack Steinherger, who heads a team of physicists working at Columbia on the same field of research in pi-mesons, said that work done by Prof. Herbert Anderson, director of the Enrico Fermi Institute of Nuclear Studies at the University of Chicago, had produced the opposite results from those indicated In the Geneva announcement. i 6 mnnllu nr longer tupply 9 1 First A olor! flulerl look brush to black, pnr T. i 'I 'i ORDER TODAY FROM ALLIED FLORIST BER life t.
