Larry ' Crosby, who as president
of Brother Bing's Research foun
dation, aided in'thi development
of the atomic ' bomb, said today
" h believe the Unitod States
should bury the weapon's secrets
at once?
a Larry' announced yesterday that
, the foundation had devised;
practical defense against the" atom
; bomb. He said the technique was
so simple that theij bombs could
be detonated . without knewjing
their exact whereabouts.
The Crosby fourflation turned
out quite a few items that had
bit effect in thel war. One of
them, says Larry, was the diaper-
.-sat system in the fife bombs that.j
... raised so much hajoc in Japan,
i That Was an involved: mechanism
. ; In the M-7S aimaSle-cluster in-
' -cendiaiy'bomb that spread tire

jiion has I been' devoting most;; of
its energies to the i war effort.

Alumina Plant
The Salem "alumina-from-clay
plant could and should compete
in today's market in the manufac
ture of ammonium sulphate, Ore
gon's congressional delegation was
told this week by Dean A. Schoen
feld, OSC director of extension,
and by Bernal Hug, president of
the Oregon Seed Growers' league.
Not only li there a lack of tbe
fertilizer here, but the Salem fac
tory with equipment it has could
produce it as cheaply as that sold
here Xhen. farmers are able to
find it, they declare.
Serious, immediate need for; the
commercial fertilizer makes it im
perative that the Defense Plant
corporation - give its approval, to
the manufacture of alnmonium
sulphate, Hug has notified l the
Oregon senators and representa
tives. The product is needed on

Basic Pay Rise
WASHINGTON, Oct. 2-P)-An
AFL spokesman told senators to
day : that boosting the minimum
wage to 65 cents an hour, would
help unions win higher wages, for
workers now getting more than
that figure. j
Lewis G. Hines, AFL legisla

in testimony to a; senate labor
subcommittee: ' ' ! , ;
If I am getting 65 cents and
others now getting 55 cents are
raised to 65 I am certainly going

gether and say, "how about an
other dime, brother?' and I think
I am going to get it." f I
