Reds Worrying
Over Reaction
In Oatis Case
By June E. Bo per
(United PrM Staff Cot-res porvdent)
Washington, Aug. 2 m
America's outcry against the Im
prisonment of William N. Oatis
Degan 10 mane uie Luuimunisis
worrv today.
A Russian broadcast for the
first time acknowledged mounting
" U.S. anger over Czechoslovakia's
imprisonment of Oatis, the As
sociated tress iormer Prague cor
respondent, on false spy charges.
Moscow apparently felt it had
to explain to its listeners the
western worms protests against
the arrest. So Moscow said that
Americans are maddened by ex
oosure of their agents.
"The American imperialists,"
Moscow complained, "are con-
ducting a vile campaign of slander
against Hungary and czescho
slovakia." "For a number of years Ameri
can intelligence has been conduct
ing subversive activities ... the
trial of the former U. S. represen
tative of the Associated Press
William Oatis, wa9 particularly
revealing in mis respect.
"It wa9 revealed that the lour.
nalistic activity of the AP repre
sentative served only as a camou
flage and tnat the AP branch in
Prague was in fact a spying cen
ter. . ."
The voice of America, some U.
S. newspapers and now the house
foreign affairs committee are de
nouncing Czech communists for
sentencing Oatis to a 10-year pris
on term.
The foreign affairs committee
late yesterday approved unani
mously a resolution branding
Oatis' arrest as a "shocking vio-
lation" of human rights and call
ing on the U. S. government to
do everything possible to help the-
newsman, ine resolution asKed
the state department to express
these views to the United Nations.
In another protest, the board of
governors of the National Press
club adopted a resolution express
ing "itis condemnation for the
imprisonment of Oatis (and) calls
for his immediate release, and
continues its investigation of
further steps to promote not only
his Individual freedom but that of
all men who may be subjected to
persecution for doing their honest
work."
The United States, meanwhile,
took another step in its trade war
with the communist world. Presi
dent Truman announced that, ef
fective Sept. 1, he is cancelling all
tariff cuts that have been made
during the last 20 years on goods
imported from certain communist
controlled areas such as red
China, North Korea and the sov
iet zone of Germany. 1

Scientists Undertake New
Gulf Stream Investigation
By Paul F. Ellis
(United Press Science Editor)
New York IIP) The Gulf stream
Is under a new investigation.
This time it is a five-month
expedition by a group of scien
tists of the Woods Hole, Mass.,
Oceanographlc Institution -who
seek to determine if the stream
actually separates into branches
off the Grand Banks or whether
the stream consists of several
currents.
The scientists have left Woods
Hole aboard the Albatross III, a-
180-foot steel trawler that is vir
tually loaded with new types of
instruments to help the scientists
in making tests of underwater
temperatures, currents and speed
of currents.
Sailing Gulf Stream Not New
The Woods Hole scientists have
made many investigations of the
Gulf Stream. For instance, only
recently the scientists learned
that the stream moves at a speed
of four to five nautical miles
per hour, instead, of the much
slower flow Indicated on the nau
tical charts.
They have found that the swift
est flowing part is only ten to
la miles wide, and that the stream
may move one to 200 miles north
or south of its average position.
Knowledge ol the uulf stream
is important not only for. ocean
going liners, but it Is important
for many countries, . including
England. . !
Science' Seeks Answer
The Woods Hole experts seek
to determine how the Gulf Stream
flows toward northern Europe.
It is pointed out that once the
stream has left the Grand Banks
off Newfoundland, oceanograph-
ers call it the North Atlantic
Drift. '
The drift is known only in gen
eral. It is believed that the stream
branches off Newfoundland but
It is not certain. , ,
The scientists report that there
have been no observations at the
spot where the stream is sup
posed to branch off.
Hence, it is now believed that
there is not one Gulf Str.eam, but
possibly three currents flowing
in the same direction, separated
by weaker currents running in
the opposite direction.
It is such scientific proof that
the scientists will seek to estab
lish in the next five months.
DAYTIME SAFER
Detroit ilP Driving at night Is
more than three times as danger
ous as driving in the daytime.
Safety experts say 60 per cent of
all fatal accidents happen between
the hours of 6 p.m. and 6 a.m.

Colored Oleo
On Sale Today
Portland, Aug. 2 (Uv-Colored
margarine put In its. first appear
ance on Oregon grocery store
shelves today as housewives set
aside bowls formerly used to mix
the butter substitute.
Margarine came to Oregon at
precisely 12:01 a.m. today when a
law lifting a long ban on its sale
in the state went into effect.
Distributors were mobilized for
fast action to stock ; as many
stores as possible. . .
In Portland fleets of trucks and
augmented crews stood by for the
zero hour when stores opened for
business.
Some chain stores reportedly
had moved stocks to stores, but
withheld sales until the, legal
deadline.
One distributor, had a fleet of
taxicabs standing by .speed de
liveries of the yellow spread to
stores. Another firm had big
crews loading the spread from
railroad cars into all available
trueks.
Prices on the colored oleo rang
ed from 32 to 35 cents about 1
cent higher than the uncolored.
The margarine law passed during-
the 1951 legislature had one
restriction on the sale of the
spread that restaurants using
colored margarine must serve it
in triangular pats. ...
Stamps Used In
Works of Art
Chicago (tPi Robert Callander,
82, - has been collecting stamps
for 60 years but not to file in a
collection.
Cullender pastes them on paper
so that their varied colors form
pictures, usually . of flowers pr
animals.
One picture he sent to Princess
Alexander when she was Princess
of Wales was used to help raise
funds for an English children's
hospital. As a wedding gift,-he
sent Princess Elizabeth a picture
of two carnations in a vase made
up of British anniversary stamps.
SWEET AND LOW
Fairfield, u tin Nell Ruth
Eakins is a standout singer. Since
her voice is unusually low, in the
contra-alto range, the teen-ager
sings with the high school boys'
chorus and in the male section
of the Methodist church choir.
Wandering Goat Sets Off
Dispute Over Bible Cave
Jerusalem ill1) An inquisitive
Palestinian goat that strayed
away from the herd a little over
four years ago not far from Jeri
cho has set off a controversy.
Historians and biblical schol
ars are on one side and archeolo
gists on the other.
The dispute has been going on
for some time but it has flamed
more bitterly after a debate at
the Jerusalem university between
the' chief exponents of both views.
The dispute concerns the au
thenticity of 17 ancient scrolls,
most of which' are said to be the
earliest Hebrew texts of several
books of the OJd Testament,
When the goatherd saw one of
his charges going up a rocky hill
side, he ran after the animal.
On the way up, he passed a cir
cular opening In the rocks. The
rock he flung at the goat went
into the small cave entrance.
He heard the sound of, some
thing cracking and called help.
Jars Pound Intact
Two Arab lads wriggled inside
the cave and discovered one brok
en jar and other jars intact. In
the unbroken Jars they found sev
eral rolls of parchment.
Each Arab took four rolls. One
sold his share to an aniquities
dealer in Bethlehem, who re-sold
them to the Hebrew university in
Jerusalem. The other four were
sold to the Monastery of St.
Mark in Jerusalem, from where
they were sent to the United
States.
Prof. E. L. Sukenik of the He
brew university, who deciphered
most of the scrolls, is sure they
are authentic texts written dur
ing the second century B. C. Dr.
O. R. Sellers and Dr. J. C. Trever
of the American School of Ori
enetal Research are also certain
there can be no doubt -as to the
authenticity of the scrolls. Such-
scholars or world-wide rexnown
as Prof. W. F. Albright and Prof.
Millar Burrows support this the-'
sis.
Those experts believe the
scrolls are genuine manuscripts
dating back to the pre-Christian
era. They claim that the script
and style of writing are indis
putably convincing when com
pared with other ancienb docu
ments. ( Called Trivial
Prof. Solomon'Zeitlin, editor of
the scientific Jewish Quarterly
Review, however, is quite sure
that the scrolls date back only as
far as the Middle Ages. As such,
he contends they have compara
tively little value for either bib
lical 'scholars, historians, linguists
or students of religion.
Some of the scrolls come from
old Jewish libraries in Tebreon
which had been sacked after the
massacre of 80 Jews there in 1929,
Prof. Zeitlin said.'
Although Prof. Zeitlin had no
opportunity to study ancient
scrolls in Hebron during his visit
there hi 1925, he believes they
were all written in the Middle
Ages. . '
He thinks the Arabs who stole
the scrolls during the nlllage of
Hebron's Jewish quarter in 1929
got togetner witn dealers in an
tiquities and staged the find to
enhance the value of the manuscripts.
Consequently, Prof, Zeitlin urg
es the setting up of a commis
sion of scholars to investigate the
authenticity of the scrolls.
Professor Criticized
. Prof.. Sukenik and other arche
ologists maintain that Prof. Zeit
lin never read the Hebron scrolls
and has never compared their
form of writing with the type of
characters used in the scrolls dis
covered by the goatherd.
' Among the scrolls investigated
by Prof. Sukenik is a complete,
almost ' undamaged text of the
Book of Isaiah nearly identical
with the authorized texts fixed by
Jewish tradition 1,000 years ago.
This 22-foot long scroll is said to
prove how carefully the tradition
al reading of the text was pre
served over a 2,000 year-old pe
riod. An early commentary of the
Book of Habakuk, chapters from
the Book of Genesis and Leviticus
in ancient Hebrew,- Phoenician
characters, chapters from Deuter
onomy and Judges, a tiny frag
ment from a book of war hymns
and the hitherto unknown text
of a book called by Prof..Sukenik
"The War of the Children of
Light and the Children of Dark;
ness" are Included in the scroll
valued by students of language,
Bible scholars and historians alike
cherish them.
