May bank D.-S.C. said Wednesday he hopes for an early start on a five-year expansion of the alo- ' mic energy program planned by President Truman to cost be tween five and six billion dollars. "It Is my understanding the beginning phases of the expan sion will be on a modest scale and I am hoping it will get un der way soon," Maybank told a reporter. The South Carolinian is chair man of a Senate appropriations subcommittee which passes on funds for the atomic program. In that capacity, he conferred Tues day with officials of the Atomic Energy Commission regarding the expansion plans Mr. Truman announced Monday. "I am told," Maybank said, "there have been no decisions yet as to just where the new program will be undertaken, or as to whether new facilities will be constructed or existing ones enlarged." Hoover School Entrance as depicted in a sketch of the archi tects. The building is to be constructed on a 10-acre tract east of Park avenue and north of D street. It is expected bids will be asked in the near future in the hope that the building will be completed by next September. The entrance faces the west and is so designed to cut down the force of wind and rain to a considerable extent. The designation of "Hoover" is in recognition of the fact that former President Herbert Hoover once lived in Salem. Shakespeare Put Error Into Mouth of Julius Caesar (Astronomer, By J. HUGH PRUETT Extension Division Oregon HI her Education System) Wood Cutting Project Closes A wood cutting project, inaug urated by the county court north of Salem several weeks ago as an aid to employable men tern porarily out of work, will be shut down within three or four days. The project has been a pro fitable one in that it was of ma terial assistance in keeping the relief load down, it was stated during a discussion by the court Thursday. Wood cutters have been trans ported to the scene of operations by a county truck and the men have been paid $7 a cord. They have cut approximately 500 cords, some o which will be used in heating the court house. A portion of it will be sold. The tract on which the men have been operating is virtually cut over except for some swamp land where cutting would be difficult. The cutting has been exclusively by crosscut saws and axes. It is probable a similar project will be inaugurated next winter should need arise. Better wea ther conditions would mean op ening up of customary spring jobs. Ted Kuenzi, assistant count) engineer, who has been super vising the project, states much of the cord wood cut of of ex cellent quality. A correpondent recently wrote that he had never seen even an attempted explanation as to why the north pole of the earth always points "exactly" at Polaris, the north star. He is surely in good company for Shakespeare made Julius Caesar say, "But I am constant as the northern star, of whose true fixed and resting quality there is no fellow in the firma ment."

(Radio Telephoto) Eric Johnston On Plan Board Washington (P) President Truman Wednesday nominated Eric A. Johnston, former stabili zation chief, to be chairman of the International Development Advisory Board. The group su pervises planning operations un der the Point Four Program. An exchange of letters dis closed that Johnston accepted the chairmanship after consist ing with the Board of Directors of the Motion Picture Associa tion of America of which he is president. Johnston said he agreed with the President that the Point Four Program of technical aid to underdeveloped countries "embodies all those things that we stand for in America, and all those things we seek to achieve as a leader in the free world." The chairmanship of the ad visory board formerly was held by Nelson Rockefeller.

Women of Stayton Boost Dimes Drive Stayton Four Stayton wom en s groups have joined in spon soring the March of Dimes Moth er's Drive which is scheduled for Thursday evening, Jan 31. The women will solicit the residential section of the town, calling for contributions only at homes where the porch light has been turned on as a signal that iney are welcome. Mrs. A. I. Prueh is oreanizine the group. Assisting her will be Mrs. Ed Bell representing the Catholic Daughters of America: Ilrs. Louise Carter, the Rebekahs; Mrs. Leonard Titus, American Legion Auxiliary, and Mrs. Lil lian Umphreys, the Order of Eastern Star. Other groups are expected to join the drive. has discovered the explanation But that is all spoiled by the brutal fact that the earth's pole does not point at Polaris and likely never did, the great Shakespeare nothwithstanding. The place among the stars at which the earth's pole points is known as the celestial pole. All the stars in the northern sky seem to encircle this pole once day. Even Polaris traces a little circle around it and is now about one degree two widths of a full moon from it. (The exact amount today is 57 min. 13 sec. a little less than one degree. . The separation of the celes tial pole from Polaris is now continually decreasing and will be at a minimum around A.D. 2100, when it will be a little less than half a degree away. At the time of Shakespeare it was nearly four degrees away. Someone has suggested that if the famous poet had taken the trouble to check on the figures. he would have found he had Caesar in error by around 15 degrees. After 2100 the separation will increase. By 14,000, the pole will be only five degrees from Vega, more than 45 degrees irom Polaris, which cannot then by any stretch of the imagina tion be considered the north star. But for many generations yet, Polaris will be a very de pendable although not exact pole star. All this changing is due to the 25,800-year cycle of the precession of the equi noxes, a phenomenon too com plicated to explain here. Since Polaris traces a circle around the celestial pole, it is due north twice daily: when directly above and below the pole. For rough reckoning, however, this star defines north quite closely.

An easy way of showing the location of the pole is to set a wide-open camera in a dark place, direct it approximately toward the north star, and let it stand for an hour or more. Curved trails of many stars in this region will be photograph ed. All will seem to be drawn around the pole as a center. There are numerous fainter stars nearer the celestial pole than is Polaris. In 1925, a tiny star, practically at the pole, was dubbed "Polarissima." Two beautiful photographs of the star trails around this are shown in Popular Astronomy in Jan uary 1937. Polaris is at the end of the handle of the group of stars known as the Little Dipper.

(Telephoto) Admiral Raps Conduct of War Coronado, Calif. (U.R) Adm, Jonas H. Ingram, retired wartime commander-in-chief of the At L'antic Fleet, said today he felt our government s ideas on the Korea war have been "phony from the start" with everything being done for political ends. Ingram was scheduled to leave here today for a three-week busi ness trip to New York. "If we were actually going to clean out the communists it would be different," the cigar- smoking veteran said. "But what can a fighting man feel that he doing under such conditions as these? I feel that everything the ad ministration does, internation ally or in this country, is done for political ends. ' Ingram said he agreed in the basic ideas of General Douglas McArthur. However, he said he did not think it would be neces sary to land troops on the con tinent of Asia.- "Wars aren't fought just a the front lines," Ingram said "You go behind their lines and destroy their rears. Our whole concept of this war has been phony from the start. "Things couldn t be worse, The Russians are getting their objectives without losing a man or firing a shot." Columbia Fishing Season Curtailed Portland, Ore. (U.R) The Ore gon fish commission and the Washington department of fish eries have curtailed commercial fishing in the Columbia river in July and the fall, despite pro tests of Astoria packers and In dians at Celilo. The two authorities concurred here yesterday on new seasonal regulations designed to build up the seriously depleted July Chinook salmon run and check exploitation of the fall river sil ver run. The season below Bonneville will be June 20-July 15 and July 29-Aug. 26. Above Bonneville it will be July 2-13 and Aug. 14 24. The new season regulations cut two weeks off the summer season. The state authorities also agreed on 48-hour week-end closing, taking in Friday and Saturday, after the season opens Sept. 10. Columbia river fishing regu lations are established jointly by Oregon and Washington.

DEATHS Bogota, Columbia VP) Six wild and bearded convicts who escaped a tropical jungle prison camp said Thursday they killed broiled and ate a seventh com panion the fattest one and were planning to eat another when they stumbled into settlement and surrendered. Their confession was reported by Horacio Rosero Caicedo, di rector of the National Territor ies Department of the Interior Ministry. The men wandered 38 days through treacherous swamps and jungle inhabited almost solely by snakes, beasts and wild natives. They covered a crow-flight distance of 250 miles before they reached Puerto Um bria, a river village in an An dean valley, and gave them selves up. Some were ill with malaria. Ail were clothed in rotted tat ters. Eating their plumpest com panion, they said, was the only way they could get strength to escape the jungle.

OJ.R) A con victed jewel thief was brought from Oregon state prison to Portland Wednesday to testify before a federal grand jury in the case of 57-year-old Walter R. Carroll, charged with steal ing $40,000 from the Umatilla post office last year. The convict, William Malcolm Ritchie, SO, was sentenced last August to serve six years for the theft of $57,000 worth of samples from a jewelry sales man's motel room. The Carroll case involves the disappearance of two $20,000 payroll shipments mailed in 1950 from the federal reserve bank in Portland to the Inland Empire bank in Umatilla. Carroll is being held in Reno, where he was arrested in a gam bling club last December. He will be brought to Portland if a grand Jury indictment is return ed against him.
