Berlin. It guarantees payment for
goods manufactured in Berlin for

ritory, subject to constant harass
ment of its traffic by the Russians.

Fuchs, Atom Scientist, '
Confesses Treason
, (Continued from page One)
Fuchs, describing himself as a
"schisophrenic" (split personality)
who had divided hia mind into
two compartments. One permitted
him to carry on agreeable con
tacts with those around him at
the Harwell atom plant. The other
established him aa a person com
pletely independent of the forces
of society, . ,
Fuchs was the leading atomic
researcher during the war at Har
well, Britain'a atomic establish
ment, and waa head of the theore
tical physics branch, the heart of
atomic, acience. In the United
States there were indications that
he had access to the most Tital
of information, including probably
the hydrogen bomb. Moreover, it
was said in' Washington, such
secrets aa e may have passed on
could have aped Russia's achieve
ment of an atomic explosion.
During the war Fuchs visited
the Oak Ridge, ' Tenn., atomic
energy plant and the laboratory
at Los Alamos, N. Mex., where
the world'i first atom bomb was
produced.
Confession Signed
At 'he hearing before Magistrate
Laurence Dunne, aecurity officer
William Jamea Skardon testified
Fuchs had aigned a atatement when
he waa questioned at the Harwell
plant on his arrest last week.
In the statement, Fuchs waa said
to have asserted that when he
learned the kind of work he was to
do in Britain, "I decided to inform
Rusaia and I established contact
through another member of the
Communist party."
"Since .that time I have had
continuoua contact with persons
completely unknown to me except
that they would give information
to the Russians," the statement
aaid.
"At thia time I had complete
confidence in the Russian policy
and I had no hesitation in giving
all the information 1 had.
"I Vlieved deliberately the west
ern allies allowed Germany and
Russia to fight each other to death.
I tried to concentrate on giving the
results of my own work.
"I used my Marxian philosophy
to conceal my thoughts, which had
to be scpsrated into two compart
ments, one aide waa the man I
wanted to be. I could be free and
easy and happy with other people
without fear of disclosing myself
because I knew the other compart
ment would step in if I reached a
danger point.
"Looking back now, the best way
Is to call it controlled schizo
phrenia. Envisaged "New World"
"In the postwar period I had
doubts about Russian policy. Even
tually I came to the point when I
knew I disapproved of many of the
actions of Russisn policy. I still
believed that Russia would build
a new world and that I would take
part in it.
"During this time I was not sure
f could give all the Information I
had. However, it became more and
more evident that Russia would
spread her Influence over Europe.
I had to decide whether I could
continue to hand over information
without being sure I was doing
right. I decided I could not do so."
The prosecution gave the court
a story of Fuchs as a brilliant
vouth in Germany who was an
underground communist agent since
19.12 in Berlin.
Humphreys, In his opening state
ment, declared that Fuchs received
money from Russian agenta after
he began giving them atomic re
search secrets in 1942.
Fuchs Was interned In England
In 1940 but was released in 1042 to
aid in British A-bomb research. He
was given naturalization papers
and came to the United States in
1043 with a British research team
to work with Americana on the
atom bomb.
"Blarney Stone" Sought

No blarney its the real thing.
Efforts are being made to se
cure the much-ublicized San Fran
cisco "blarney stone" as a feature
of the St. Patrick'a day dance to

March 17, sponsored by the St.
Joseph's Altar society, circle one.
According to Mrs. H. C. McDon

Newspaper On
Pine Product Is
Boon To Industry
MACON, Ga., Feb. 10 UP)
The Macon Telegraph delivered to
1U readers today the first edition
of a daily newapaper ever printed
on southern pine paper from a
newf print mill at Coosa Pines, Ala
' In addition, the Telegraph be-.
came the first newspaper in Geor
gia 'to utilise the products of the
new mill, which nuns millions ot
dollars annually to pine tree
growers, . '
Since the paper was soma of
the first produced at the mill, two
of its officers said that future de
liveries would be of a much higher
quality.
Peyton Anderson, publisher of
me teiegrapn ana tne Macon
News, and press room foreman
Blake Jonea both expressed satis
faction with the product.
In the future, the Telegraph
plana to use newsprint from Maine
along with the pine paper since
production at the Coosa mill is
not yet aufficient to meet the Tele
graph s needa and, at the same
time, aupply other newspapera.
For yeara the Telegrpah has
been closely identified with the
production of newsprint from pine,
a plentiful southern product which
the psper felt could add Immea
surable to southern economic life
if fully used.
It waa through the efforts of the
late W. T. Anderson, Telegraph
publisher, that appropriations
were obtained from the atate and
interested Georgians to finance Dr.
Charles H. Herty'a .'esearch on
use of pinea for paper.
There ia another newsprint plant
at 1-utkin, Tex., the first to put
the Herty method into commercial
use.
