French Team Takes One Mile Plunge Under Sea Surface Toulon, France U.R) Two French officers today submitted secret reports to the French Navy on their observations dur ing a record one mile plunge be iieatb the sea. The descent of the two in a Navy bathysphere set a new world's record for underwater exploration of 5,113 feet. The French team of Auguste and Jacques Piccard has been making preparations for months for a bathysphere descent of two and one-half miles beneath the sea. On T.t Divas Piccard, widely known for his stratosphere balloon trips took his bathysphere down on two shallow test dives today and said any attempt to better the French record must await further tests of his cigar shaped underwater craft. The French team took their loorcfv wraDoed craft down to record depth 10 miles southwest of Cape Cepet, near here. Th Frenrh Navv issued a brief statement which said that Capt Nicolas Maurice Mouot and engineer Pierre Henri Willm, took the navy's bathy sphere "FNRS 3" down 5,113 feet. Naval spokesmen said the pair plans another descent tomorrow in an attempt to reach a depth of 6,562 feet. ' HORSE RELIEF High Point, N. C. (U.R) Marion E.

Machine Permits Scientists To See Minute Particles Stanford, Calif. (U.R) Stan ford University scientists said today they have perfected the world's most powerful micro scope. They said it is a combination of two complex machines which permits them to distinguish par ticles only two one-hundredths of a trillionth of an inch within the nucleus of an atom. Another Apparatus The physicists also disclosed that plans are on the drawing board for another apparatus even more powerful which they believe will probe to the small' est structures in ordinary matter. The apparatus shown yester day is a combination of the pow erful electron linear accelerator, a form of "atom smasher," and a high energy electron scattering apparatus which uses a 2',i ton magnet as an "eyepiece." 'Shoots' Electrons The scientists said the accel erator "shoots" electrons which penetrate the nucleus of the atom, and the scattering appara tus measures their number and the angles at which they are de flected. Dr. Robert Hofstadter is in charge of the project, assisted by graduate student Harry R. Fechter and laboratory special ist John A. Mclntyre.

Taylor Paint & Wallpaper Co. 906 NORTH RIVERSIDE PHONE 3-2904 FBI Investigation Of Oil Industry To Study Gas Price Washington W.R) The Justice Department has ordered an FBI Investigation of the oil Industry to determine whether there was illegal collusion in the recent wave of gasoline price increases, it was learned today. To Study Evidence Official sources said the In quiry was ordered at the request of the department's anti-trust division. The trust busters will study the evidence gatherd by the FBI before deciding whether to seek indictments charging oil companies with a price fixing conspiracy. A series of increases sent re tail gasoline prices up two cents a gallon or more in many areas of the country earlier this sum mer. The House Commerce com mittee held hearings on the price boosts at that time. Open To Suspicion While the committee made no formal charges,' Chairman Charles A. Woverton, (R-N. J.), asserted that the industry had laid itself open to suspicion by Jacking up prices at a time when a looming surplus should have brought competitive price cuts. Rep. John W. Heselton, R-Mass., a member of the committee, termed the increases "completely unjustified", and urged the Jus tice Department to look into the matter. Morse Predicts Demos To Regain Control of House Cleveland, O. U.R) Sen. Wayne Morse of Oregon says Democrats will regain control of the House in the next election and adds they also "have a good chance" to regain control of the Senate. Speaking before the 10th an nual convention of the AFL Chemical Workers' union here, Morse said he will compaign for election of Democrats next year "because liberalism is dead in the Republican party." He also blasted the Eisen hower administration's record for the past six months. "The Eisenhower administra tion's record for the first six months is a record of failure," Morse said. "It has failed to balance the budget, reduce taxes or the national debt, as Eisenhower promised in his cam paign speeches." '5 mm a McCarthy Say To United States Bomb Secrete Washington (U.R) Senator Joseph Rj McCarthy said today he has heard sworn testimony that a Communist employed in the Government Printing Office has had "access" to A-bomb and H-bomb secrets. The Wisconsin Republican re fused to identify the employee. The testimony was heard in se cret by the Senate Investiga tions subcommittee which Mc Carthy heads. "We have information that at the time the individual was working at the Government Printing Office he had access to top secret material having to do with the A-bomb and the H-bomb," McCarthy told re porters. Public Hearing Monday . ' An atomic energy spokesman said, however, that no "restrict ed data is sent to the regular, main Government Printing Of fice." He declined to elaborate. The subcommittee, which has been hearing secret testimony on the case all week, will start public hearings Monday. McCarthy said the "individu al" under investigation has been identified by "several witnesses" as having been a Communist. He said the person has denied this under oath. Board Cleared Employee Edward M. Rothschild, a vet eran bookbinder at the printing office, revealed through his at torney yesterday that he has been a target in McCarthy's late est Reds in government investi gation. Claared in 1949 His chief attorney, Charles E. Ford, said a printing office loyal ty board cleared Rothschild in 1949 of apparently the same Communist charges that have been raised before the subcom mittee. Rothschild and his wife, Esther, are under subpoena by the subcommittee. McCarthy said the testimony involving access to atomic bomb secrets came from "individuals" and not from Government Print ing Office officials. But he said officials had testified that the printing agency handled "se cret" material of the Atomic Energy Commission. McCarthy, (R-Wis.), has said the secret hearings, which will be public starting next week, have dealt with charges that a government worker with access to secret documents is a Com munist party member. But he has refused to confirm or deny that Rothschild is the man in volved. ' Ford yesterday showed re porters a letter from the Print ing Office Loyalty Board dated March 3, 1949, expressing satis faction with Rothschild's loyalty. Transcripts Mad Public He also made public tran scripts of two hearings held be fore the board in late 1948 in which Rothschild flatly denied charges that he was a member of the Communist party, a mem bar of the Washington Book Shop Corporation, or associated with persons affiliated with Communist organizations. The identity of his accusers was not divulged. Rothschild himself refused to talk to reporters. New Britain, Conn.
