Should Share Scientific pacific . inDUSTRIAlr" Information With Its Allies 16 S. CENTRAL r A T t u.s (Continued from fgt 1) We must share without reser vation in the exchange of sci entific information between our Allies. The Administration should take immediate steps to work with Congress to put through enabling legislation. It must be clear by now that no nation has a monoply on sci entifif knowledge and that no na tion can preserve to itself over an extended period any scien tific discovery, Hfearings before the Johnson Senate Prepared ness subcommittee have already proved their value to the coun try in the testimony of our lead ing scientists that the Russians have gained their superiority in scientific development primarily through hard work, vast ap propriations and encouragement of their scientists. At the NATO Conference we should, atQthe same time, set into motion the machinery for the distribt&en of our advanced ajqd latest weapons so that these Weapons becwne available to each of the members to ward off Qened. In modern warfare, time is of the greatest importance. and an aggressor must be given no opportunity to exploit the advantage of a suprise attack. But of equal and immediate concern to us are the economic needs and difficulties of some of our Allies. This is harly the time for us to weigh our com-J forts against the plight of our pmtners (ti security. x,est we forget, whatever measure of sec urity we have managed so far has been due to our collective strength with our 'friends and Allies and the support the Amer ican people provided for some of the flatering postwar econ omies of those nations. Expensive though it has been, it has been infinitely cheaper than any armed conflict would have been. "With Russia having taken on a more menacing milftary bell igerency, our need for further sacrifice is even greater today, and it would be sheer folly for us not to face up to it. Period of Sacrifice Here at home we must face another period of scrifice and heavy expenditures. We will have to suit our budget to our critical needs at home and abroad. Our debt limit and our taxe3 may have to be raised, but better management of our na tional debt and fiscal policy could help us materially in hold ing down the flize of the budget and our tax structure. But our paramount consideration at this time is the preservation of the common security of our Allies and ourselves which will deter mine the peace of the world. Before the American delega tion leaves for Paris, I think the Administration should make sure of full bi-partisan support in order that our Allies may ac cept without hesitation propos als put forth by us at the Paris conference as representing the will and full support of all of the American people. The one sure vry to get full bi-partisan support is to consult with the leaders of the Demo cratic Party Majority in Con gress, particularly Speaker of the House of Representatives Sam Rayburn and Lyndon John son, Majority Leader of the Sen ate, who will have responsibility for the enactment of the re quired legislation and appropro priations. It would also be help ful immediately to consult with many of our experienced and able leaders in labor and ag riculture, as well as business, be cause their judgment and coun sel will be needed for full pub lic support of the sacrifices we inevitably will be called upon to make. Tarn glad that Governor Stev enson is already lending his counsel to the Administration in preparing for the Paris meeting. And I would suggest that other Democrats, richly experienced in international affairs, also be called in for cousel, and among these I would think of the ad vice of Dean Acheson, Averell Harriman and Chester Bowles would prove useful. Would Lend Prestige We would all be sorry if Pres ident Eisenhower is not able to take a personal part in the NATO meeting. His presence would lend prestige and sentiment, be cause, in addition to his being President of United States, he has been a symbol of NATOi from its very inception when he was chosen unanimously by the member nations to preside over its operations. Many things have happened in recent years to handicap NATO, with strains and bicker ing among the Allies. The pre sence of President Eisenhower at the December meeting would provide the symbol, as well as a stimulant, of unity. I hope our delegation will come before the meeting with sound and concrete proposals and that we will all respond to the crisis we face by acting once again in unison and harmony. , mammmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmai ' '-J. : . i mamma "I'LL TAKE THAT ONE" Four-year-old Jonnne Rose tells Lt. (jg) Ralph Blanchard that he is in the market for one of the four surplus "Mars" flying boats that the Navy plans to sell next month. The big ships originally cost about two million dollars each but the Navy feels it will be lucky to get 710 per cent back. One airplane manu facturer has shown interest in using one as a "test bed" while an island-hopping airline hopes to get one for freight and passenger service. Want one? The bids are still open.

Shackleton Saved By British Crew London (IP! The British ex ploration ship Shackleton smash ed into an iceberg at high speed in Antarctic waters Saturday and began shipping water. But after 12 agonizing hours the crew re ported it was winning the bat tle to save the vessel from sink ing. A late message from the 27-year-old skipper, Capt. Norman Brown, said emergency repairs were being made on the shatter ed steel hull and that he hoped to bring the 1,100 - ton ship through the mishap. It was esti mated 58 men were aboard. The Shackleton rammed an ice floe while churning its way out of pack ice to deliver men and supplies to British Antarc tic outposts. The after hold fill ed with water. Early SOS messages indicated the Shackleton was sinking. Life boats were swung out on their davits, cargo was dumped and Brown said he was trying to reach Uruguay cove on Laurie Island, one of the British-claimed islands in the South Orkney .group some 2,500 miles from the South Pole proper. Three ships began steaming to the rescue. Then; for 12 hours there was silence. Finally, the acting gov ernor of Britain's Falkland Is- Last Great Voice In Italy Stilled Rome (IP) Beniamino Gigli, the last great voice from the golden age of Italian opera, died Saturday from an attack of bronchial pneumonia that left him no breath even to whisper. He was 67. The pudgy tenor whose career spanned 41 years and who had been hailed as the successor to Enrico Caruso, died in bed in his Rome apartment after a two day illness. A few hours before he died, he suffered an attack that robbed him of the power to speak. In the last years of his life he had lived down charges that he was a Fascist during the war. Gigli had not sung a note in public since Oct. 1, 1955 when physicians told him to end his career. That was five months after a widly successful U.S. tour. At that time he had suf fered an 'internal disorder." Ill ness and death came suddenly. Born at Recanti, Italy, March 20, 1890, there was only one dark cloud in Gigli's life and he dispelled it himself. That was during World War II when he was accused of col laborating with Mussolini's Fas cists. He denied that he was a Fac cist. He said he was ordered to sing by the people running his country and he sang, that was all. District Representative: C.
