Idea Of Mighty V-2 Rocket Came To
German Scientist From Son's Toy
By DOUGLAS LARSEN
NEA Staff Correspondent
WASHINGTON NEA Due to military iecurity regulations
tome of the details of the following story cannot be revealed. It
Involves the Inventor of the German V-2 weapon, the Incredible
manner In which he stumbled onto the Idea, hii work on Its
initial development and finally Hitler's part in the project.
The man Is now In the United
States, working for Uncle Sam. I nt . ,moolh version
At least he was In the U. b. up o tn, toy He fix,d lt t0 hr rouM
until early this summer when a ut a rod through It and still
have It swing free on one plane.
With this arrangement he got In
his car and drove down the road.
the pointed stick out of the car
window on the rod. As he drove
faster the stick tended to plane
out and point straight Into the
wind.
At this point Hans had no Idea
what thh gadget was leading to.
It was Just a sort of new idea
in aerodynamics that Interested
him. He continued his automo
bile testing and finally worked up
to a suck wun tins, xms aruv
ity took place over a period of
several months. Sometimes he
would forget about it for awhile.
But the Idea intrigued him and
he kept going bark to It.
Obtains Hitler's Aid
Hans interested a couple of oth
er instructors at the school in his
unusual project and it became a
sort of hobby for all of them.
They figured out the thing on
paper as far as they could, hut
were stymied by the lack of a
good wind tunnel. But by the time
war loomed this group of young
scientists had the Idea of a rocket-like
missile pretty well thought
out in theory.
They agreed that the only way
they could go any further lri their
study was to experiment in a
fast wind tunnel, the likes of
w hich had never been built. They
went so far as to draw up some
specifications on what kind of a
tunnel they would have to have.
It was so big and new In design
that only their government could
afford to build it.
Hans and his fellow scientists
realized this and decided tn w
what could be done to get funds.
as nans laid out his theory for
the revolutionary missile before
succeeding German army offi
cers, interest mounted In the
idea. News of it got to Hitler and
he sent for Hans. Hans sold him
a full bill of goods. Hitler gave
Hans unlimited money, men and
materials to start the tunnel.
The rest of the storv is on the
open record. Many minds other
than Hans' contributed much to
the final V-2. In fact he sort of
got lost In the later stages of the
project, when attention was cen
tered on trying to find some sa
tisfactory electronic device to ac
tually guide the missile in flight.
And that is how one of the
deadliest weapons in history, des
tined to revolutionize warfare,
came to be born from a child's
toy
security cloak was suddenly
thrown around him after it was
discovered that his part In cre
ating the V-2 was known outside
of tight official circles.
This German scientist is work
ing on classified projects. Thus,
where he is employed now or
what he Is doing can't be told.
He does have relatives in Eu
rope who might possibly be in
jured If his proper name is re
vealed, so for purposes of this
story a fictitious one. Hans, will
be used. So much for security
regulations. Here is his story"
In the early part of 1935 Hans
was a struggling young physics
Instructor and father of a healthy
young boy. One of his son's fa
vorite games consisted of whitt
ling a point on a straight stick of
wood and throwing it into the
ground to see how many times he
could make it stand upright.
Experiments Launched
One day as Hans was watching
a particularly spirited session he
decided that a round, pointed,
straight piece of wood had cer
tain unusual aerodynamic prop
erties. It aroused his scientific
curiosity and he began making
some tests.

CIO Heads See
Communist Split
For Convention
WASHINGTON, t.T) Top
CIO leaders have indicated to
day they expect the split be
tween anti-communist ind pro
communist groups within the
CIO to erupt In convention next
month. A third labor federation
may be created as 4 result, they
speculated.
The show down may come
when the CIO meeting la held
in Cleveland the last week of
October.
The pro communist groups,
such as thore leading the United
Electrical Workers, now are forc
ing the issue in the struggle
which has raged In CIO ranks
for more than two years.
The U. E. claims more than
a half million members. It has
laid down certain demands to he
made on CIO President Philip
Murray, giving Murray little
choice but to bring matters to a
head.
The U. E. has threatened to
cut off payment of an eight
cents per person levy to the CIO
except under certain conditions.
The conditions were forwarded
to the CIO this week, follow
ing re-election of U. E. officers
In convention at Cleveland.
Murray now must lead a fight
to kick them out or yield to
the U. E. demand that CIO of
ficers who have criticized U. E.
leadership be ousted and sil
enced. The CIO convention, at which
the fight is certain to explode
into a noisy, head-on clash, be
gins October 31 in Cleveland
The issues will be cleared at the
executive board meeting starting
Oct. 26.

Sprague, Wash., Is a town
that is afflicted with rats, so
a clarinet player named Norm
Lindgren has offered to pipe
them all out of town the way
the Pied Piper of Hamelin did.
Only Lindgren says he'll blast
his horn with such finesse the
rats will head for the hills
faster than a Jet-propelled
jaokrabbit. Sounds like a fel
low we heard playing on the
radio recently. Lindgren didn't
say whether the rats would
follow him or run from him.
If the clarinet player can get
rid of pests by blowing his
horn, he's got a lucrative fu
ture ahead of him.
