But an even greater threat to mankind has developed from the, increasing use of nuclear energy. This is atomic radiation. The following article is the first of a series dealing with the radiation peril and what is being done to thwart it.

By A. L. SINGLETON Baltimore News-Post Staff Writer (Distributed by International News Service) A war that could end in destruction of humanity already has started. It is not a hot war, with hydrogen bombs bursting or with soldiers dying on fields of battle. It is a cold, but fiercely-fought, conflict between a few By CLYDE SHAFFER Tribune Staff Writer The world's biggest mid-Winter exposition the Florida State Fair gets under way Tuesday morning and the prospects of it eclipsing 51 predecessors have fair officials fighting to keep from appearing over-enthusiastic.

With improvements visible on all sides, the fair thi year will offer its patrons something of a change of a changing scene in the horticultural de partment, a super-charged art show that had to turn away nearly 300 entries, a "miracle kitchen" in the always-out-front Electrical Exposition, and a beef cattle trick that will have winning entries walking on carpets of orchids, just to mention a few. Weather' Cooperates The weather department has cooperated to the extent of promising a better than usual over-all picture with a minimum of bad days. In addition to its gigantic display of the industrial might and the agricultural accomplishments of the state in general and 14 participating counties in particular, the fair's program will include automobile racing on four days, thrill shows on three days, free grandstand programs 12 times during the 12 days of the fair, special 4-H Club, Future Farmer and Flying Farmer programs as -well as four big parades, the first coming the opening day of the fair which has been designated Shrine Day. Dairy cattle will be shown at the stock barns during the first week of the fair and the first entries, owned by William T. Carpenter of Rutherfordton.

N. C. arrived at the fairground bv van Thursday afternoon. Judging cf the Aryshires will take Blaee Tuesday afternoon. The first night cattle judging scientists, plus their statesmen allies, and unknown trillions of silent, unseen enemies.

The enemies are radioactive atomic particles. The way to which they move is called atomic radiation. Threat to Survival And this radiation posses as great a threat to the survival of mankind as the possibility of a global hot war with nuclear weapons. That is the consensus of many scientists, working against time throughout the world to prevent the worst from happening. Today, they are confident the worst will not happen.

If radiations are controlled effectively, there is nothing to worry about, they point out optimistically. But when they look toward tomorrow they begin to talk in less certain terms. Only the Beginning For this is only the dawn of the atomic age. The-radiations given off by tests of nuclear weapons, by radioactive elements Jn the earth and sky, and by such medical devices as X-ray machines are slight in comparison with those to come. Already the amount of radiation-at-large is sufficient to give them pause.

Scientists know, for example, that there are enough vi 1 f. iMiSiiilliii Committee Report Points To 'Grave Importance' Of Arab-Israeli And Suez Disputes WASHINGTON, Jan. 26. (JP) The House Foreign Affairs Committee today called on th Eisenhower administration to come up with "positive and comprehensive measures for dealing with the fundamental problems of the Middle East," "Our country should lead in boldly pursuing and implement ing policies and programs to bring-peace, security and eco nomic stability to the Miaate East," the committee added. The committee spoke in a re port on President Eisenhower's military economic resolution aimed against Communist ex pansion.

The report spoke of the "grave importance" of Middle East questions like the Suez Canal and Arab-Israeli disputes. The Eisenhower resolution is directed, not primarily at these questions, but at the "external" threat of international Communism. Passage Expected The committee approved the resolution by a 24-2 vote Thursday night. The House is expected to pass the bill next week. It would empower Eisenhower to step up foreign aid to the Middle East and to use military force, if necessary, to stop any overt Communist aggression.

1 committee document gave general endorsement to the Eisenhower plan. But its call for a "positive" program, coupled with a statement by Senator Fulbright heightened prospects that the Mid-East issue will again come to the fdre later this congressional session. Fulbright, a senior member of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said he believes a Senate inquiry into the administration's Middle East policy will follow congressional passage of the Middle East resolution. Will Ask Review The senator said he will ask for the policy review Monday when his committee and the Senate Armed Services Committee meet secretly to continue their questioning of Secretary of State Dulles. He predicted the inquiry would be approved.

Dulles, the target of stiff attacks by Fulbright and some other Democratic sentors, has contended such an investigation would harm U. S.relations with Britain and France. Senator Aiken Vt.) said he would oppose any move to start a general policy study until i'fter Congress acts on the resolution. From Senator Bridges of New Hampshire, chairman of the Senate Republican Policy Committee, came a statement urging colleagues not to hold up action on the resolution pending a review of administration policy. "I think we have plenty of facts for our present purpose more than Congress has ever had in advance of action by previous administrations on such matters as Pearl Harbor, Korea, the Yalta Agreements, and the loss of China," Bridges said.

"While we take time out to reexamine history," he continued, "the situation grows worse and the Soviet Union acts. Senator Fulbright is skeptical of what Secretary Dulles has been doing in the Middle East. If he wants to scrutinize the secretary's tactics with a magnifying glass, it's all right with me. But we have got to get on with the job. When an alarm tells us a gangster is loose, we don pick that exact moment to investigate the personal history of the police commissioner." No Deadline Set The House committee set no deadline in its recommendation, although the inference' in its endorsement of the resolution was that the "positive" measures should be set forth after the resolution passes.

It said this program should be pre sented to both the Congress arrd to the United Nations. The committee report took note of the frequent criticism that the Eisenhower resolution does not tackle key problems within the Middle East which, the critics say, must be solved if there is to be real peace there. "The solution of the Arab- Israel controversy, the resettlement of refugees, the reopening of the Su2Z Canal with the es tablishment of adequate safe guards for the interests of its users, and other problems, are of grave importance and should be given continued attention by the executive," the committee said. "Sufficient legislative authority already exists for the settlement of many phases of these problems." There were no published dissents to the committee report. Hungary Expels U.

S. Woman It Had Jailed BUDAPEST, Jan. 26. (JP) The Budapest municipal court today sentenced an American woman free lance photogra- 1" pher to 50 days Ill Jdlt 1U1 eilllM ing Hungary il-legally. Because she had been in prison longer than that, she was set free but i told to get out of the country by .4 4 Sunday midnight and stay out.

At the same Mrs. Chapelle time the interior ministry disclosed it was holding four young Britons, including a granddaughter of the late bir Stafford Cripps, for trial on charges of spying. They had vanished after entering Hungary about 10 days ago and the ministry's announcement was the first official word on their fate. Still unheard from are Richard Roraback, 26. of Dcbbs Ferry, N.

and Einar Roos of Oslo, who were arrested Jan. 12 by Hungarian frontier guards while trying to aid exhausted refugees cross into Austria. The United States and Norwegian governments have demanded their release. Pale and Tired The American woman, Mrs. Georgette Meyer (Dicky) Chapelle, 36, looking pale and tired after 54 days of Communist imprisonment, told the court: "I understand the sentence and I do not have any comment to make.

She was placed in custody of the U. S. Legation p.rding her (Continued on Page 12, Col. 4) Junior Cries As Toys Hid In Oven Turn To Liquid COVINA, Cal Jan. 26.

JP Mrs. Mary Strong found out where her son, Richard, 2, put those toys she told him to pick up the other day. It all came clear in a flash when she turned on the oven last night to cook dinner and clouds of smoke came billowing from the broiler. It was fun having the firemen come to the house, but after they had gone, Richard took one look at the bubbling plastic pool that was his collection of boats, cars, trucks and guns and burst into tears. Negro Candidate TALLAHASSEE, Jan.

26. (P) The president of Florida State University announced today a 24-year-old white graduate stu dent was being barred from en rolling for the new semester because he violated long-stand ing policies against race-mixing on the campus. Dr. Doak S. Campbell said the fact that the student, John Boardman, had made a pojitical speech for a Negro candidate for the city commission "only incidentally" influenced the disciplinary action.

Campbell said it was inci dental "only as an indication to flaunt the wishes and policies of the board." Boardman, who formerly lived in Ames, Iowa, told newsmen he had been disciplined by Dr. R. Oglesby, dean of student, be cause he made a speech in behalf of The Rev. K. S.

Dupont and because he invited three foreign students at Florida A. for Negroes to a Christ mas party at the FSU campus. Says He'll Fight Boardman declared he would fight the action as a violation of his constitutional rights of free speech and of free as sembly. Dr. Campbell said in a 350- word statement that normally no publicity was given to dis ciplinary actions against stu dents but since Boardman him self had released his version of it at a news conference he felt compelled to make public the reasons.

Boardman also has been ac tive in the movement toward in tegration on city buses. Dr. Campbell's statement said in part: "Violated Regulations" "In December, Mr. Board man violated regulations of the university which provides that meetings may not be held on the campus in "which the races are mixed. "This regulation is in ac cordance with the board of con trol's longtime policy.

Specif ically, Mr. Boardman invited students from the A. M. Uni versity to attend a party given on the campus of Florida State University student International Club. This was done despite the fact that Mr.

Boardman was told explicitly by an officer of the dean's office that such action would be in violation of university regulations. "While this matter was under consideration for final action Mr. Boardman engaged in public statements through the press which were misleading and untrue regarding the action of the dean of men. When asked specifically whether in the future he would be willing to abide by the regulations he stated he had no intention oi abiding by any regulations ol the board of control regarding racial tensions. "Had No Choice" "After full investigation of this young man's actions, and of his continued attitude of ignoring board of control regulations the committee came to the conclusion that it had no choice but to ask him to withdraw from the university at the close of the semester." Dr.

Campbell denied flatly a statement attributed to him by Boardman that he, Dr. Campbell, had said that eventually there would be Negroes on the FSU campus. Dupont, a leader of the Negro Inter Civic Council which is spearheading the bus integration movement here, is seeking to unseat City Commissioner Davis Atkinson, a staunch advocate of segregation. The board of control, which supervises the university system, issued a policy statement last Tuesday in which it said that students who create trouble (Continued on Page 2, Col. 2) Bigger!

(JP) A bipartisan group of representatives launched an effort today to sign up their colleagues in formal protest against any visit to the United States by Yugoslav President Tito. They prepared a petition to President Eisenhower asking him not to extend an invitation to Tito, or reconsider if one already has been issued.

Rep. McDonough Calif.) announced circulation of the petition. He was joined by Reps. McCormack of Massachusetts, House Democratic leader, Keat ing N. and Madden Other members will be in vited to sign beginning Monday, McDonough said.

They Oppose It The four sponsors said in a statement they do not wish "to embarrass the President," but "we do not believe the millions of good people of the United States should be embarrassed by an invitation to Tito to come here as an official guest of the United States." As circulation of the petition began, the word spread that if the administration goes ahead with reported plans for an official visit by Tito in April, congressional leaders may declare an abnormally long Easter recess, covering the whole time he is in Washington. Would Avoid Question This device would pointedly avoid the question asking Tito to address Congress or extending to him any other courtesies customarily tendered by the lawmakers to a visiting head of state. The petition referred to "widespread and emphatic protests" against plans to invite Tito to be an official guest of the United States. These have come, among others, from Roman Catholic leaders and groups from some veterans' organizations. A number of Senators and Representatives have publicly protested, some calling for boycotting of any functions in Tito's honor and one, Rep.

O'Konski Wis.) saying he would resign if Tito were officially received. Convict Who Fled 22 Years Ago Finally Caught DES MOINES, Jan. 26. (INS) A 54-year-old man who was arrested for reckless driving in Fort Dodge Jan. 8 was in the Polk County jail today, awaiting return to a Wisconsin prison farm from which he walked away 22 years ago.

Authorities identified him as George Dietsch, alias James Arthur West, who left the farm in 1935 where he was serving time for two burglaries to go to his father's funeral in Oregon. Instead of attending the funeral, Dietsch took the name of James Arthur West, worked for a time on a farm and in three Iowa mental hospitals. His fingerprints were taken on his arrest at Fort Dodge. A check revealed his true identity but he had already been released by Fort Dodge authorities. Dietsch, who was t.aced to Independence, waived extradition yesterday.

His wife of 13 years, Anna, did not know of his past. Dietsch said he had a good life since his escape. But is "kind of glad it's over." He was married 13 years ago in Minnesota. He said his wife told him she would wait for him, although he urged her to "forget" she ever knew him. TRACK MAN'S 1948 WARREN POLITICS GIFT IN TAX COURT JACKSONVILLE, Jan.

26. (JP) A $150,000 contribution which William H. Johnston is reported to have made to former Gov. Fuller Warren's 1943 campaign is scheduled to come before the U. S.

Tax Court when it begins a two-week term here Feb. 4. The government contends Johnston, Jacksonville and Miami dog track operator, gave $150,000 toward the campaign and the money was subject to the gift tax. Due in gift taxes, says the government is $26,100 plus a 25 per cent penalty of $6525. Johnston in the civil suit asserts the commissioner of internal revenue was in error when he ruled that Johnston by contributing to the former governor's campaign made gifts to him aggregating $150,000.

Denies Making lit In his petition, Johnston said he did not make a gift to the Warren campaign or any other amount in that year. adds that any disbursement for a political campaign was not made a gift and is not subject to gift tax provisions. The outcome of the suit conceivably could affect Warren. The internal revenue code specifies that if a tax on a gift is not paid when due, the person who receives the gift shall be liable for the tax to the full extent of the gift's value. May Call Wolfson Louis E.

Wolfson, financier, formerly of Jacksonville, who was also a big contributor to Warren's campaign, is expected to be called as a witness. C. V. Griffin of Howey-in-the-Hills, a third heavy financial supporter of Warren in 1948, says he also has been called as a witness. Warren in the 1948 race defeated Dan McCarty of Fort Pierce.

Following the large contributions in the 1948 campaign, the Florida legislature revised the state's election laws placing a 51000 limit on the amount any one person can contribute to a political candidate.

The line of march of the parade, as announced by Ye Mystic Krewe of Gasparilla, will include nine sections and more than 100 units, and will move through downtown Tampa over a three-mile parade route during a four -hour elapse of time from the passing of the first unit until the last one has moved on into the Florida State Fair.

Starting at 1 o'clock, the parade actually is one of two giant spectacles marking the opening of Gasparilla festival week, and their combination has won nationwide recognition for a distinctive type of pirate pageantry. It will follow ithin an hour after a great marine pageant (Continued on Page 8-B, Col. 3) radioactive particles floating above the earth to kill everyone on it. The chance of this occuring is so slim as to be inconsequential. But the mere fact is possible has chilled the spines of government officials- as well as white-coated men and women in laboratories.

The Greater Concern Of even greater concern, however, is the amount of radiation that can be created by the industrial and commercial production of atomic energy. Unless this production is tightly-controlled, and its waste matter disposed of, the problem of radiation may become insurmountable, say the men of science. Although they admit they are still learning about radiation and its effects, they know enough to make these observations: 1. Any radiation received by a human is harmful. 2.

X-rays and natural releases of atomic energy have produced more radiation so far than tests of nuclear weapons like the hydrogen bomb. Affects Future Generations 3. Radiation causes mutations, or abnormal changes in new generations. 4. Although the harm from radiation to individual persons can be severe, often fatal, the most formidable danger is to their offspring.

5. Too much 'radiation can upset the reproductive pattern of entire races without the worst being known until it is too late to do anything about it. These are only a few of the startling facts of radiation that worry the experts, and that will be discussed in detail in subsequent articles in this series. Seek Means of Control But, fortunately for the rest of mankind, the men who discovered a way to create this new threat to life long ago started working on ways to control it. In this country, the Atomic Energy Commission, aware that it was confronted with a radiation menace equal to weapons production, asked for help.

And among the first to respond were members of the National Academy of Science. In 1951, the academy's research council established six committees to study various phases of the radiation problem. This year, each committee made an initial report, but emphasized the need for continuing study. When the reports were made public, Dr. Detley W.

Bronk, president of the academy and a former head of the Johns Hopkins University, commented: "The members of these committees are among the (Continued on Page 6, Col. 1) in the fair's history is scheduled for Tuesday night at 7:30 when entries in the Holstein division are paraded before the judges.
