The atom bomb may be a fact of life, but the nation's top physicists would rather explore the stork theory in relation to the care and handling of molecules from heaven.

At any rate, one of four invitation papers read at the first session of the American Physical Society's spring meeting was Why My Stork Chose 1868" delivered with fine feeling by Dr. R. A. Millikan. Atom bomb expert J.

Robert Oppenheimer presided at the session. Dr. Millikan. 80-year-old nobel prize winner and cosmic ray authority, paid tribute to the stork's astuteness before capacity audience of several hundred physicists. He assured them: "If my stork had looked all over the for the perfect time and place to land a baby physicist, he couldn't have chosen a better time or place than he did." The professor mentioned, how.

ever, that the stork grounded him in a little town of 3.000 population Iowa although he previously in has listed his birthplace as Morrison, Illinois. He praised the stork for timing his debut to coincide with a new era in physics. precipitated by the discovery of the X-ray, electro-mag. netism, radioactivity, negative electrons and the quantum change. Several hundred earnest physicists still don't know the atom bomb secret but they do know that.

Should the first symptoms of inflammation begin to manifest themselves the very nature of these sinuses and their accessory memranous linings, makes them susceptible to a very severe and painful reaction.

Accordinaly at the first sign of any pain in the regions the individual should lose no haste in having the advice of a qualified person. Sinus trouble is a severe and oftentimes a dangerous disease due to the possibility of the infection spreading to other bones of the skull and eventually the brain when insanity or death is sure to follow. Much of the excruciating pain may be eliminated by proper Chiropractic Adjustments as shown by thousands of clinical records. However Chiropractic adjustments will often give immediate relief along with a permanent eradication of the disease. Many cases feel as though a constricting pressure had been removed from their head soon after an ad-justment and often describe this as a feeling similar to the busting of a pressure hydrant inside their sinuses.

one essential we shouldn't have to worry about this time, is rubber. We still have most of our wartime-built $700 million synthetic rubber industry in a state of readiness for an all -out war. And Congress this week is expected to complete action which will insure that state continues at least until June 30, 1950. The only dark spot in the picture from the standpoint of war production is a scanty government stockpile of natural rubber. We now have about 250.000 tons on hand.

little more than a third of what we had stored or afloat and bound for the U. S. at the time of Pearl Harbor. But government stockpilers say an easing in demand for natural rubber will enable them to increase our stores rapidly. The legislation going through Congress--the House has passed a bill and the Senate is considering one- will require that the ment maintain its synthetic rubber plants in state of readiness to produce 665.000 0 to 675,000 tons annually.

Our peak wartime production was 864.000 tones in 1945. Gerald Hadlock, director of the rubber division of the Reconstruction Finance Corp. which owns the' plants. said this production. easily could be matched again, At present, 24 government owned plants are producing synthetic rubber and 12 more are in "standby' condition.

Thirteen plants to have been sold private industry and most are producing the same products as under government ow nership. Two more plants listare ed as surplus. A rubber- industry spokesman said if war came tomorrow there was enough natural and synthetic rubber on hand to keep the industry going at full speed until the standby synthetic plants could go into action.

BOYCHOIR that INSURANCE SAYS: WOMEN LIVE LONG New York, (INS) Women have materially better chances than men of surviving to old age.

That IS the finding of statisticians of leading life insurance company, The report adds that chances are about 3 in 4 that a new born girl will reach the age 65, while for boys, the chances are about 2 in 3, These figures concern the white population of the United States. The statisticans observe that the prospect of reaching old age has increased markedly since the turn of the century. The girl infant of 1900 had less than 45 chances in 100 to. attain 55, wheras at present the age chances are about 75 in 100. For boy babies the chances in 100 increased from less than 40 to somewhat over 60 in the same period.

The prospect is also much brighter now than in 1900 that a boy just entering employment would survive to the usual retirement age of 65 years. At age 18, the young man of 1900 had an even chance of reaching age 65, while at present the chances are fully two in three. For a man at age 45 the chances are 70 to 100 of surviving to age 65 and at 55 years, the chances Life Insurance the only thing Father buys on the installment plan that Mother won't have to finish paying.

The report states: The outlook for living beyond age 65 likewise has improved. Currently, white men who to 65 can expect to live on for an additional twelve and half years on the average, and for white women there remains: an average of 14 and a-quarter years. "It is reasonable to expect, moreover, that additional control is gained over the infections and other conditions which bring premature death. the average length of life will be extended still further."
