FOURTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Artificial Moon With Protruding Eyes To Measure Sun's Heat Washington V An arti ficial moon with four tiny sen sors protruding like eyes on stalks willoattempt next year to measure the heat in the gigantic atmosphere cauldron that manu factures the weather. If the attempt is successful it will give weather forecasters vital information now almost completely lacking. Told at Conference The experiment was described by Dr. V. E. Suomi of the Uni versity of Wisconsin at a 13 nation conference on rocket and satellite programs of the Inter national Geophysical Year (IGY). The so-called "heat balance" is one of six major scientific Cooperation in Help for Jobless Urged for Winter Salem IIP) An urgent call for cooperation with the Oregon State Employment Service in finding jobs for thousands of unemployed workers during the coming winter was issued today by Mrs. Cecelia P. Galey, chair man of the unemployment com pensation commission. . "Our staffs in 26 local offices arebeing faced every week by longer lines of those seeking work," Mrs. Galey said. "Claims for compensation have been on the rise since last June. This promises a real problem later in the winter when seasonal unem ployment grows. Many Regular. Idled The administrator said reports showed that more regular work ers were being laid off than for many years. "Unless we have jobs to offer, about 90 per cent of the appli cants are entitled to compensa tion. With a reserve fund which already is low after diminishing in eight out of the last nine years, we must have help from employers and citizens if we are to avoid a real crisis," she said. Layoffs in lumber and con struction have been primarily responsible for the rise in pay ments this year, Mrs. Galey said, but unemployment is also spreading to other industries. Last week, 16,314 persons asked compensation comparing with 6,249 for the same week last year and 6.549 for the same period in 1955. BOYS STEEL CLUBHOUSE Corpus Christi, Tex. W Police 'Wednesday halted the demolition of a $250,000 steel building and confiscated the wreckers' tools.

The way the atmosphere moves determines the weather The tropical regions general ly receive more energy from the sun than they lose by radiation. Regions nearer the poles, how ever, lose more than they re ceive. This is offset in part by export of heat from the low lati tudes to the higher ones. Basis of All Weather "This differential heating and resulting heat transport by the atmosphere and by ocean cur rents is," Suomi said, "the very basis of all our weather." Weather forecasters know but can make little use of that fact in their work because detailed information about the "energy budget ... is simply too inade quate." So Suomi and his associates have devised a way to measure the "heat input" from the sun and the amount radiated back and thus arrive at the planet's "heat balance." Federal Purchase Of Klamath Indian Resources Urged Klamath Falls IW T. B. Watters. management specialist for the Klamath Indian reserva tion, told a hearing on Indian af fairs here Wednesday that the only feasible way to protect rights of the Klamaths was fed eral purchase of tribal resources. Watters testified at a hearing of the Senate Indian affairs sub committee with a single member attending, Sen. Richard L. Neu berger (D-Ore.) To Get Transcripts Neuberger explained to a crowd that ( filled the Circuit Courtroom here that the other three members could not attend but that they would be furnished transcripts of the testimony. At issue was Neuberger's bill call ing for federal purchase of the reservation's resources. , Watters said the only feasible manner in which tribal rights could be protected while still preserving the timber stands and the watershed benefits of the reservation was federal pur chase. Demands Explanation Boyd Jackson, speaking for the tribal council of the Klam aths, demanded to know why Congress and the secretary of the interior had ever conceived termination of federal controls over the tribe in the first place. A second phase of the hearing will be held in Portland. Termination date has been postponed until 1960. missions assigned to the Foreign Exchange Student Program 4, Starting 5 P.M. 5, Starting 9 A.SV9.

Italian Blockade To Commies In San Marino San Marino 'IP! A total blockade of this tiny state by Italian troops threatened today to starve the Communists out of the government palace. Communist leaders defied the threat and said they would not submit to a provisional govern ment set -up in a half-built fac tory by Christian Democrats. "We will die here rather than give up our ground," a Red spokesman said. This 38-square-mile republic, the world's oldest, is situated near the Adriatic sea complete ly within Italy. It depends on food, manufactured goods and a $240,000 annual subsidy from Italy for survival. j Italy Rushes Police 1 When the Christian Demo crats declared an independent government Tuesday and both sides started arming their fol lowers, Italy rushed federal po lice to seal off the border and contain any eruption of civil war. The Christian Democrats were in a more strategic position to get supplies, though. Their head quarters are only 50 yards from the border the Communist held palace is six miles from it. Informed sources said the Communists would start feeling a food shortage within two or three days. Russian Proposes Soviet-U. S.
