REDS ATTACK SPACE CADETS The latest nonsense from Moscow is a Communist attack on such American stalwarts as Flash Gordon, Buck Rogers and Captain Video. These characters, so the Russians claim, are a weapon of American imperial- ism, designed to convince Americans that the United States must go outyand conquer outer space. The Soviets also charge that these comic characters, and television players, are supposed to scare Americans out of their wits and convince them that high taxes are necessary for defense, and outer-space exploration. A recent article in a Soviet cinema periodical claims that Hollywood is also guilty of attempts to frighten the American taxpayer so that he will not object to paying the high cost. of armament. LARGE HAMMERS AND SMALL NAILS Three psychologists at Purdue University say that despite the old theory, one does not need a small ham- mer to drive small nails. Phe three psychologists did a bit of research on this issue recently in an effort to dis- prove the line of some hardware salesmen. They came to the conclusion that the salesman is not necessarily correct when he says a small hammer is best in driving small nails. After much objective re- search, the psychologists came to the conclusion that a large hammer is best for large nails, but that it is also good for smal! nails. It is good to have this age-old controversy subjected to the light of modern science. In fact, the three psychol- ogists have described their experiments in a six-page re- port, which includes charts and the dimensions of saw- horses used, and so forth. A number of different sized nails and hammers were used in these experiments. After these tests, involving sixty different combin- ations of hammers and nails, the result shows that the hardware salesman is sometimes full of applesauce. When a hard-headed business man offers you a bargain, think twice. The world would be a nicer place to live in if just about everybody didn’t have an axe to grind or a motive behind his (or her) behavior. Crossword Puzzle ACROSS 35. English 1. Chart letters 4.

Qld musical note AP Newsfeotures Egypt Will Ho Id Assembly Vote In July | This Rock | \ By Bill Gibb There seems to be a wave of} outboard motor thefts here in town. This is a warning to you boat owners to start lo¢éking up your motors instead of leaving them attached to the boat in the backyard. According to reports, the thief or thieves evidently know boats. In one case, they went to the trou- ble to refasten steering gear which they had to ‘remove before they could get the motor off of the boat. I’ve talked to a few outboard motor enthusiasts and they say that the only possible way a thief could escape AME taiight stealing on such a large scale would be to haul his lopt.out,.of, town.

Sparkplugged by the Coral City} Elk’s Lodge, about twenty-five or- ganizations have joined together in what is called “‘A Community Clean-up Plan.” For the initial phase of this program, ten blocks! have been selected and Captains; appointed to supervise in each block. Yards are being cleaned, fire) hazards removed, anything injur-) ious to the public health is being referred to the Public Health De-| partment, etc. It is a wonderful job the Negros have undertaken on their own initiative and they de- serve a pat on the back. Various other outfits such as the County Health Department and th City of Key West are offering both practical and moral support to the leaders of this clean-up campaign. It is always good to see this kind of mutual cooperation. Sewer Problems Here are a couple of questions |if some Of Ours it owners and it might be worthwhile, certainly it would be a kindness, reliable public official would provide the answers—- (1). Many homeowners in the past went to the extra expense .of connecting with a sewer line by getting permission to go through the yards of people living behind them. Now that a sewer line has been laid on their own street, they want to know if they will have to go to the additional expense of dis- connecting from the old line and connecting up with the new one in front of their house? (2). What about the man who doesn’t have sufficient money to connect with the sewer when or- ders go through to that effect? These two questions might seem premature at the present time but as I said, they are underlying wor- ries in many people’s minds and if they could be cleared.up, it would be nice. 5 For the next couple of years, lo- cal plumbers are going to have a field day. They already have just about all of the work that they can do. If it wasn’t for the license angle, I think I’d swap this type- writer for a pipe wrench! Security Measures The Navy shouldn’t feel too bad- ly about a minor lapse in its se- curity measures. It happens in the best of families. Once while I was in the Service, I collaborated on writing a textbook concerning crash rescue. It was necessary to go into certain details on various type planes and somehow, the boole end- ed up with the foolish classification of “Restricted.” The worst incident however, was that I wasn’t cleared for security and when I attempted to read the proofs of my own book, they threw me out of the printer’s building on my ear. Security is a necessary part of military affairs but this country has a long way to go before it can gain such a thing. You can buy maps, pictures, and charts showing every detail of the local Navy Yard but it is darn near impos- sible to get a pass to visit in there. The chances are that our enemies know a lot more about our mil- itary plans than many of our own officers. Security in the past seems to have been aimed more at the American people than at trained which are worrying many home- spies. ELIZABETH, N.

Levit By ROBERT B, HEWETT CAIRO, Egypt —Egyptians are ]\to elect a constituent assembly in July. This step toward restoring the Nile nation's parliament) |was announced by the reunited military regime last night. It promised also to end local press censorship immediately, ex- cept for defense matters, and to | wipe out the martial law instituted 'when King Farouk was deposed and exiled in 1952. The 250-member constituent as- sembly, to draft a constitution and serve as an interim parliament, will be inaugurated July 23, the second anniversary of the start of the bloodless coup that dethroned Farouk. These decisions were reached by the 12-man Revolutionary Council in consultation with two of Egypt’s elder statesmen. The elder states- men were ex-Premier Aly Maher, appointed months ago to head a 50-man committee to consider a new constitution, and Abdel Razak Sanhoury, president of the Egyp- tian State Council (supre court). Both President Mohamed Naguib a major general, and Premier Ga- mal Abdel Nasser, a lieutenant colonel — central figures in the council shakeup last week that stirred the nation—attended the meeting at Nasser’s home in sub- urban Heliopolis. They appeared on the best of terms. The premiership as well as the presidency was Naguib’s until young officers on the council stripped him of his titles Feb. 25 and made Nasser premier and act- ing president. Two days later they bowed to pressure and restored Naguib, a popular idol, as their figurehead. The liberalization of policy does not mean Egypt is to get a dem- ocratic government as such a term would be understood in the United States. Observers view the decisions as intended both to rein- force the council’s unity and ask! public support. Speaking to newsmen from the steps of his home, Nasser said the Revolutionary Council will run Egypt until a regular paliament is elected later. He said he considers ‘the council ‘ta caretaker govern- ment.” “The reyolutionary Council is gradually handing over power to the people,” he said, “but the army is determined to see proper parliamentary life restored to Egypt.” The election date for the regular parliament, he said, probably will be set by the constituent assem-' bly. Egypt has been operating since January, 1953, under an offi- cially decreed three-year transi- tion period in which political or- ganizations were banned and pop- ular elections tentatively sched- uled for 1956. Naguib presumably will hold on to the presidency, originally given him by decree of the council June 18, 1953. Nasser said no political parties will be allowed in the constituent assembly election campaign and) that the new constitution will lay) down regulations for political or-| ganizations. Asked how the council’s move would affect. British-Egyptian rela- \tions, long strained over British) joccupation of the Suez Canal Zone, Nasser said: “We hope this move will show the stability of Egypt and that we won’t hear any more talk of mili- tary dictatorship and so ‘forth, such as Mr, Churchill has often used in referring to the Naguib government.”” issippi Vi im 1811 wag felt in two third of what is now the United States. ‘Lesson-Sermon Topic Is ‘Man’ That permanent peace and har-! mony are within reach of mankind through the spiritual growth that) reveals the true, spiritual nature lof man in God’s likeness will be) emphasized in the Lesson-Sermon entitled “Man” which wid be read Version of the Bible include this citation from Romans: “And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called accord- 28). tures” by Mary Baker Eddy. “Mortals must gravitate God- ward, their affections and aims gtow spiritual, — they must near the border interpretation of being, and gain some proper sense of the infinite, — in order that sin and mortality may be put off. “This scientific sense of being, forsaking matter for Spirit, by no means suggests man’s absorption into Diety and the loss of his iden-| tity, but confers upon man enlarg- ed individuality, a wider sphere of| thought and action, a more ex- Pansive love, a higher and more permanent peace” (265:5-15). The Golden Text is from Psalms: “Mark the perfect man, and be-| hold the upright: for the end of that man is peace” (37:37). New “Floated” Gyroscope Is Mass Produced MINNEAPOLIS (#—A new type “floated” gyroscope, capable of such minute jobs as measuring off the width of a city block on the moon, is being mass produced by iisneszolls - Honeywell Regulator Oo. The ultra-precision instrument, cylindrical and weighing less than) three pounds, is claimed by com-| pany engineers to be the most Sensitive airborne implement ever devised. Officially called the Hermetic In-| tegrating Gyro (HIG), the device) is capable of detecting motion 3,000 times slower than the movement of the hour hand on a watch. It was designed for the Air| Force for use in automatic flight) control systems for supersonic and| pilotless aircraft, and for bombing and weapon firing controls. Other nonaerial uses already being made) lof HIG range from 60-ton tanks to; ocean-going vessels. Engineers said here that HIG’s, near-miracle performance is due to the fact that friction among its| moving parts has been cut almost to zero, This was accomplished by} floating the gyro’s delicate, jew-) el-mounted spin mechanism in a special oily fluid. If a boy on a sled could reduce! friction comparably, these experts) said it would be possible for him to coast about 1,000 miles down a “hill” only one foot high. Work on the Gyro was started five years ago after initial de- signs were laid out at the Massa-| chusetts Institute of Technology under direction of Dr. C. S. Draper. More than 10,000 HIGs have been Produced so far. So sensitive is the mechanism that one speck of dust weighing one one-thousandth of a gram would have the same effect on the HIG as the dropping of a hand-) ful of gravel into an automobile transmission. | As proof of its ruggedness, en- gineers said they have used aj demonstration model to drive nails; through a board without affecting) its pejformance. A spokesman said “‘fantastic’’| was the only way to describe the! small gyro’s capabilities. For ex- ample: If a man walked around a circle, so slowly as to take him five, years to complete his journey, the) gyro could record the motion. If he suddenly speeded up to com- plete the circle in a second, the! gyro could measure and control) that rate of speed also. If a man standing in Los An-) geles could read a newspaper held up in New York, the instrument could detect the angle of change of his eyes as they traveled from the first column to the eighth. The Holy Name Societies of th Catholic Church have selected the| month of March to honor the ex-! emplar of all Catholic Fathers, St. Joseph, by designating, “Family Leadership” as the theme for this month. One of the highlights of the mon- thly Program for the Holy Name Society during an active year is the| month set aside for Fathers and Sons. The sons of today will be the leader of tomorrow. The fact is Tecognized that today is built the church of America for tomorrow, today is built the Holy Name So-| ciety for tomorrow. It’s safe to say, too, that a closer relationship be-| tween Father and Son today, will! mold a stronger and healthier, Christian for tomorrow.

The re- cords seem to emphasize that Ma- ry is the finer type of personality. However, it is Martha and not Ma- ty who is the patron saint of this generation.
