Pike believes, it is a force for good, too. Pike, -a member of the atomic energy commission, said in a speech here Wednesday night that the bomb could be credited with saving "half a million to well over a million" lives by ending the Japanese war. , Potentialities He did not suggest directly that the bomb is a - deterrent to ag. gressor nations or that it might shorten a future war. But he said It has been "beneficial to the hu man race" in the past and "has future potentialities In that direc tion." "I won't carry the message of the atomic weapon any further." Pike said, "but I believe its case merits some thought." Pike said the commission will De producing "usable power from atomic reaction "in a matter of a few months." But it will be five or ten years, he added, be fore nuclear reactors produce more power than it takes to run them. 'Heat Cycle Because nuclear energy must be changed to electrical powe "through a. heat cycle" under present plans, two-thirds to three' quarters of the energy will be lost So, Pike added, "there is a big red apple waiting for the creator of a practical method of using this energy directly without go ing through the medium of heat. , Free Press Survives In Oklahoma' PONCA CITY, Okla. (U.R) It was once against the law to mib lish a newspaper in what is now Oklahoma. A special order by Secretary of the Interior Henry M. Teller in the 1880 s made publishing newspaper in the Cherokee Strip territory (now northern Okla. noma) a crime punishable by im prisonment and fine. Conviction carried a possible one to five-year jail term or a fine of $1000-$5000 or Dotn. A pioneer Oklahoman, Capt. David Payne, sometimes called the "father, of Oklahoma," posted a copy of Teller's order on the door of his newspaper, office and went ahead and published his paper, the war Chief, anyway. He and his staff were arrested but eventually were released without trial. .
