NACA Sees Progress in Race
For Faster-T hart-Sound Planes
By JAMES J. 8TREBIG
AMoelftted FrtM Avlatlra JMpsrlir
Washington, Jan. 19 VP) The nation's top agency for air re
search sees progress in the race with Russia for practical faster-than-sound
fighting planes needed in atomic warfare.
Production of such fast hurtling ships is difficult but it can
be done "by any nation willing to make the effort," the na
tional advisory committee for
aeronautics (NACA) said yes
terday in its yearly report to
congress.
The NACA, without actually
naming Russia, said it can be
assumed that the Soviet is mak
ing an "Intensive effort" to de
velop the best means of deliv
ering atomic bombs as well as
to defend against them. Su
perior speed is generally recog
nized as the "most important
single element" in both, the
agency said.
The United States' progress
In the search for practical mili
tary craft of supersonic speed
was buried in 50 pages of re
ports on technical studies made
during the past year. It showed
among other things: .
1. The air force X-l super
sonic rocket-powered research
plane has been maneuvered at
very high speeds.
2. The X-l and the navy D-558-11
jet and rocket powered
research plane have been flown
repeatedly at supersonic speeds
in a urogram for matching ac
tual flight data with the results
of wind tunnel tests.
3. "A large number of suc
cessful flights" have been made
with other research planes, in
tended to explore problems
close to sonic speed.
4. Automatic flight controls
are being developed for possible
use on airplanes as well as on
(uided missies.
5. Successful tests have been
made with '.'hunter" controls
lor target-seeking missiles.
6. Studies are underway to
determine the answer to heat
ing resulting from friction at
supersonic speeds.
7. Laboratory studies are be
ing made of flight control and
heating problems at extreme al
titudes where the air is very
thin.
The NACA made no refer
ence to specific speeds for re
search planes. It said the flight
characteristics of the X-l, using
only the ailerons or wing con
trols, had been studied during
rolls in glides "at high mach
numbers."
Mach is a word used to relate
the speed of sound to atmos
pheric conditions. Sonic speed
varies with temperature. At sea
level with the temperature 59
degrees, sound travels 761 miles
an hour. In the strastosphere
with a temperature of minus 67
degrees, is speed is 662 MPH.
The X-l, which so far as is
known is the world's fastest
plane, has reached about one
and a half times sonic speed at
altitude. That aproximates 960
miles an hour. It has merely
touched such speeds, however,
since present flying models have
fuel for only two minutes or so
as full power. Research planes
carry only recording equipment.

Scientists OK'd
A-Bomb Use
Los Angeles, Jan. 19 (JP)
The atomic bomt was approved
2-1 by scientists before it was
used against Japan, Dr. Arthur
H. Compton disclosed here to
day. Dr. Compton, one of the de
velopers of plutonium, revealed
that a secret poll was taken of
all scientists and officials who
worked on the first atomic pro
ject before the bomb was used
on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
He proposed that even wider
approval that of the American
public should be sought before
the U. S. goes ahead with de
velopment of the hydrogen
bomb, described as many times
more destructive than the plu
tonium bomb,
"If the result (of such a pub
lie poll) is 50-50, we should
keep off it," said Dr. Compton.
"If it is 2-1 for it, we should
go ahead."
The A-bomb has proved a de
terrant to war. Dr. Compton,
chancellor of Washington uni
versity, St. Louis, told a news
conference. With other countries
proceeding with atomic projects,
he said "it becomes vitally im
portant to us to proceed with
atomic development to insure
our safety."
Dr. Compton also is vice
chairman of the United States
commission on UNESCO.

Kimsey Clears
Sheriff Schrunk
Portland, Jan. 19 ( Charg
es that Multnomah County Sher
iff Terry D. Schrunk violated
the state fair employment act
have not proved valid, Labor
Commissioner . W. K. Kimsey
said last night.
He said the case is still open,
but that the situation as charg
ed by two negro deputies is not
a law violation.
The negroes asserted the sher
iff put them on elevator duty at
the jail although their civil
service ratings entitled them to
more desirable work.
Schrunk explained that one
deputy had the elevator job un
der Sheriff Martin T. Pratt and
was made a plainclothes vice of
ficer by Sheriff M. L. Elliott.
Schrunk said he reassigned them
in the course of a number of per
sonnel shifts.

"NO MORE RINSING FOR ME!"
says Mrs. Elizabeth Davis of Portsmouth, ohio
"I didn't believe Tide could do it . . . till I tried it! But it's true! I
took the clothes right out of those wonderful Tide suds and put them
through the wringer and onto the line. And, believe me, they looked
so bright and clean I was proud to hang them up!"
TIDE cuts washday work in half!
No more rinsing!
Just wash . . . wring out . . . hang up !
"I took my wash out of the
Tide suds wrung it out
-and hung it up CLEAN!
I'll never rinse again!"
jays Mrs. At Hayes
OF WEIHAWKEN,
NEW JERSEY
"Tide now makes
possible an amaz
ing new kind of
washday quick
and easy, almost
beyond belief.
Just think of all
the time I'm going to save . . . with
out rinsing! And think of the wear
and tear it saves on my clothes as
well as on me! Thank you, Tide, for
the biggest washday miracle of all!"
"My clothes dried so soft
and fluffy-ironed so easily
without rinsing at all!"
$ays Margaret Lockwood
OF INDIANAPOLIS, IND.
"Talk about mir
acles! I take my
clothes out of
1 Tide's wonder
suds, wring them
out, and the dirt
runs right ovl
with the wash
water just as
thfiV AAV if rinoat
And what a beautiful wash . . . fresh,
clean, and sweet-smelling without
rinsing at alll It dries soft, fluffy,
easy to iron. From now on, it's Tide
and only Tide for me!"
YES, another Tide miracle has been
discovered and It's the washday news
of the mid-century! With Tide in your
washing machine you can take your
clothes right out of the suds . . . put
them through the wringer and hang
them on the line dazzling clean! With
out rinsing! Hard to believe? Yes, but
when you use Procter & Gamble's Tide,
it's a fact and women all over America
are proving It today.
HERE'S WHY! Tide, with its miracle
suds, gets the dirt out of your clothes
and keeps it suspended in the sudsy
water. When you wring out the clothes,
the dirt runs out with the washwater
. . . and the clothes come from the
wringer white . . . fresh . . . CLEAN!
YES, CLEAN! You all know how clean
Tide has always washed your clothes
with rinsing. Actually cleaner than any
other washing product you can buy.
Now we'd like you to try Tide without
rinsing and compare the results. It's
simply unbelievable how bright, fresh
and clean you can get your wash with
Tide, without rinsing. And think of the
time and work you save! So try Tide
without rinsing! If you do, you'll never
use anything but Tide again!
No other washing product
known can match TIDE
for getting out dirt
and soap film, too
FOR THE WORLD'S EASIEST WASHDAY...
TRY TIDE WITHOUT RINSING!
