Big Brother Industry For the most part, the big in dustries have been able to absorb the unemployed from smaller plants as their facilities were ex panded, and so far there has been no great problem in men being thrown out of work. For example, the steel industry was operating at only - 19 per cent of capacity nine years ago when production was only 15,323, 000 tons and 300,000 men were em ployed. Today the steel plants are op erating at 98 per cent of capacity and in the first six months of the current year more than 500,000 employes produced 40,912,000 tons of steel. There is much talk in the auto mobile industry of unemployment because of curtailment of new models to conserve metals for de fense purposes, but not even the manufacturers themselves know what the volume of production will be. They may build 3,600,000 vehic les or they may not build half that many because of defense .pri orities and concentration on manu facturing engines, airplanes, plane parts, tanks: shells, artillery units, anti-aircraft guns and other im plements of war. rfWl I " "Test Tube" Army Science may be able to. find II gi If3k , -Jt Plenty Testimony On Water Dispute LINCOLN, Neb., tU.PJ Attorn- evu substitute trunKS tur u" cases, hire two court reporters and take thousands of words of tech nical testimony from expert wit nesses who travel hundreds of miles. .

The men of science offer one of the greatest paradoxes of a world at war, for they continually strive to devise new means of destruc tion, and then they must learn to destroy their own inventions or render them harmless. Not all scientists are engrossed in the test tubes of death, of course, but science has been gear ed in the manner of industry for the job of defense. C'.u One out of every four American physicists is doing' scientific re search on secret national defense work. They are missing from the colleges and universities and fa miliar haunts, turning up in Washington or a closely guarded laboratory. They don't talk nowadays about their work. Except in rare cases they get little publicity, for their experiments are military secrets, No Secrets f When the war started in Eur ope there was talk of fearful secret weapons which could wipe out MISW PAUL S01TS STYLED BY TOWN-CLAD - Exclusive with ,' Penney' Isfi.

Yet none of these things has de veloped. The implements of death used by the new armies have been merer improved in struments familiar to every na tion.

S. Su preme Court. At me ena ui 15th in a series of -hearings, an inventory revealed: . Twenty-live mums jbiuuhu with technical data, more than 30,000 pages of testimony ana nearly 1,500 maps, cnaris anu other exhibits. The man who has heard every umrrt of the involved testimony, examined every exhibit and pre sided at every hearing is Michael J. Doherty, St. Paul, Minn., attor ney. In 1935, the Supreme Court ap pointed Doherty as its special master in the case. So far he's not rercivpH a cent not even travel- in expenses. When the case is settled, he can expect a substan tint fpp. Several hundred thousands of dollars already have been spent in an effort to determine an "equit able division" of precious North Platte river water. Nebraska alone has snent more than SIZB.UOU. , How long the case will continue is a guess with Doherty. He figures the earliest possible date the Su preme Court could hand down a decision would be late in 1943 and that's speculation. . , Doherty believes all the testi mony will be completed in one or possibly two more nearings mis year. Then each litigant must file a summary brief. After counsel for each of the four parties pre sents oral arguments before Do herty, he will report his findings and recommendations to' the Su preme Court. , . . . t About January." 1943. ' Doherlv figures, state and federal attorneys will be ready to file exceptions to his report and present oral argu ments supporting tneir exceptions. That will conclude the case ex cept for the Supreme Court's de cision. If the decision is released late in 1943, the suit will be closed after a nine-year run, but still won't set a record.. Colorado now is in the I3tn year or a similar battle with Kansas. The only two men still in the case who attended the first hear. ing five years ago are Doherty and Paul F. Good, Nebraska's special attorney. The three other litigants have changed attorneys and one court reporter died since Doherty heard the first testimony. The suit originated in October, 1934, when Wyoming refused to release North Platte water to Ne braska. In 1935, Wyoming drew Colorado into the battle. Then in 1938, the Federal government in tervened. .
