Refuses Reply
To Spy Hunters
Washington, Sept. 28 For
mer Atomic Scientist Irving Da
vid Fox refused Tuesday to tell
house spy hunters whether he
has been a communist. He was
questioned at the reopening of
the house un-American activi
ties committee investigation into
wartime atomic espionage by
Russia.
Now a student and teaching
assistant at the University of
California at Berkeley, Fox tea
tlfied that for more than three
years he worked In the univer
sity's radiation laboratory which
did part of the work on the atom
bomb.
Counsel Frank Tavenner told
Fox it has been "reported" to the
committee that he was a member
of the communist party and of a
communist cell at the radiation
laboratory.
On grounds he might incrimi
nate himself, Fox refused to
answer questions on whether he
belonged to the party or the cell.
Tavenner remarked that the
hearings have become of "ex
treme importance" in view of
President Truman's announce
ment last Friday that Russia has
set off an atomic explosion.

A 'NORMAL ABNORMALITY'
Says Memory Lapses
Are No Cause for Worry
Chicago JJD There's no need to think you're cracking up if
you have occasional lapses of memory or catch yourself mutter
ing aloud.
Chances are you're merely displaying a "normal abnormality,"
according to Edward A. McFaul, former Northwestern University
lecturer. . . . .
a tvnle.1 norm.l hnormalitv 1 lne 01 capacity.
cited by McFaul Is that of sud
den mood changes without ap
parent reason.
"All of us are subject to emo
tional ups and downs." h ex
plained. "The more intelligent
you are, the more frequently
you will experience the swings
from bottom to top, or vice ver
sa, and baek again. Don't let
them get you. They are a nor
mal abnormality."
Other signs which cause peo
ple needlessly to think they are
(lipping are memory lapses,
talking to oneself, disillusion
ment and discontent. In normal
doses, none of these things Is
causa tor worry, McFaul ton
tends. McFaul listed "good" and
"bad" fears. Good fear protect
people at times of danger, such
as when threatened by a bear, a
person can run faster.
But bad fears "prevent a hu
man being from flowering in
The feeling of inferiority is a
bad fear, McFaul said. But a lit
tle bit is normal and all right
since It prompts a person "to do
something about it."
"Let's stand and look at each
other," he said. "Then we will
learn that our abnormalities are
normal, and we will recognise
the brotherhood that comes
from seeing ourselves and them
In us."

QUESTION: A short time ago,
my husband decided to build
an extra store room in the
basement. He went to the gar
age to get his box of tools
which he hadn't used for- sev
eral weeks. The tool box was
gone and we have no idea
who took it or even Just when
it disappeared. We had no
burglary insurance but I won
dered if any insurance compa
ny would have paid the loss
anyway since we were unable
to state exactly when the tools
were taken.
ANSWER: Most Residential
Theft policies include a Mys
terious Disappearance clause
which would cover the loss
you describe. Under this
clause. Insured articles which
disappear unaccountably are
presumed stolen and the In
surance eompany settles the
loss.
If you'll address your own
insurance questions to this of
fice, we'll try to give you the
correct answers and there will
be no charge or obligation of
any kind,
