This was reported Saturday by Dr. Allen V. Astin. director of the National Bureau of Standards. He was discussing an announcement that NBS scientists will seek to pin down with greater accuracy than heretofore the value of "G" the acceleration of gravity one of the most important constants of nature. Astin added In an interview that while immediate application of an expected new figure will probably be limited to fundamental science particularly nuclear physics it is conceivable that some day Cuban Solons In 3rd Day of Hunger Strike perature three quantities that are basic to modern technology. from automobile engineering to atomic physics. 'This G constant, announcement, "is a highly im portant quantity: Geophysictsts need it to study the earth. Wea ther men need it to study the atmosphere. In short the value of 'G' is fundamental to meajure- ment, the cornerstone of science." The announcement was in con nection with an Invitation to sev eral hundred leaders from science, industry, education and govern ment to attend a "guest week'.' program next week at the Bureau of Standards.

J On the cover of the Life edition ' containing the article was the caption: "Three times at brink of war; how Dulles gambled nnd won." The headline on the article itself read: "How Dulles averted war. Three times, new disclosures show, he brought us back from the brink." The body of the article quoted Dulles as saying that the adminis tration walked three times to the verge of war over Korea, Indo china and Formosa and averted it by "strong action." Dulles was represented as saying that the ability to get to the verge of war and yet avoid it is a "necessary art" of diplomacy. Democrats have hotly criticized Dulles on the ground he distorted ; history and showed lack of re sponsible leadership.
