Russia obviously has what it takes to wage germ war fare. It is possible that many hours and even days might elapse before the United States even knew it had been subjected to a sneak BW at tack. The first intimation might well be an influx to doctors' offices and hospitals of pa tients suffering from debili tating or incapacitating mala dies defying immediate diag nosis. These conclusions stem from lectures on BW given at the Naval Medical Center Be- thesda, Md., in connection armed forces medical officers on "the medical aspects of special weapons." No Advanc Warning The lecturers, including some of this country's fore most authorities on germ war fare, agreed that: No advance warning of a BW attack is currently likely. All of the major nations are striving to manufacture new agents of infection which will defy quick diagnosis, immun ization, and , treatment with antibiotic drugs. BW provides the most ef fective means of subduing an enemy population without killing it off or destroying its economy. The most effective way of waging BW against a nation is bymeans of clouds or aero sols of vapor impregnated with disease-bearing viruses, bacteria, or spores. Aerosol generators may be delivered by any means - mines, sub marines, planes, or missiles weapon. The best BW is that which incapacitates, rather' than kills,' the. greatest number of Jury Finds Man Guilty of Charge Robert Paul Bryant, 25, of 718 Gilman rd., was found guilty by jury trial Wednes day afternoon in circuit court on a charge of attempting to commit burglary. The verdict was returned at 3:30 p.m. following 1V& hours of deliberation. The trial started Tuesday with Judge James M. Main presid ing. Bryant was arraigned in circuit court Feb. 25 on the charge at which time he entered a plea of innocent. De fense attorney was Sam Har bison with District Attorney Thomas J. Reeder presenting the state's case. persons in the shortest possi ble time. Aimed at Cities BW against people, crops, and farm animals might well be decisive in a war in which no other weapons were used But it could be most effec- tively used after a nuclear attack which disrupted water, feed, medical, and public health systems, and through radiation injury reduced a population's resistance to disease. Participants in the class on BW were Dr. Leroy D. Foth- ergill of the armed forces BW lab at Fort Detrick, Frederick, Md.; Cmdr. W. W, Taylor Jr., head of the biological and chemical warfare branch of the Navy's Bureau of Medi cine and Surgery; Dr. Roger C. Reid, director of the bio logical sciences divisions of the Office of Naval Research; Cmdr. Robert W. Swanson, commander of the naval unit at Fort Detrick; and Dr. H J. Carlson of the Office of Naval Research. The speakers emphasized that;BW is a strategic weapon against people and that an enemy probabaly would aim it at cities. U.S. experiments have shown it is possible to spread potentially deadly clouds over thousands of square miles from ships a few miles offshore.

From his headquarters ov erlooking the sunken battle ship, Arizona, Adm. Harry D. Felt, commander-in-chief Pa cific, directs the day to day watch against aggression over an area ranging from India to the Aleutians. His chief weapons in Ha waii are not troops, missiles, planes or guns. They are his various staff planners and his instantaneous c o m m u n ica tions with Washington, Tok yo, Okinawa, Formosa or wherever he needs to be in contact with in a hurry. . 150.000 Men Under him in Hawaii, Felt has the headquarters for the Pacific fleet, the U.S. Army Pacific, the Fleet Marine Force Pacific and the Pacific Air Force - with a force all told of probably about 150,- Hawaiians Kail Statehood With Blaring Salute Honolulu-dJPD-Jubilant Ha waiian islanders hailed con gressional approval of state' hood for Hawaii Thursday with a blaring salute of air raid sirens, boat whistles, au to horns and church bells. Acting Gov. Edward John ston proclaimed a two-day holiday minutes after the House officially approved ad mission of Hawaii as the 50th state by a vote of 323-89. All schools were dismissed until Monday, and govern- ment offices, stores and office buildings shut down as island ers poured into the streets to celebrate the end of their 40 year battle to become one of the United States. Liberty Bell Adds Peal A three-ton replica of Amer ica's Liberty Bell stationed in Honolulu stadium added its pealing to the din. Air National Guard jet fighters scrambled from Hickam Air Force base and raced to neighbor islands to deliver the unofficial state hood word. Last night Johnston press ed a button in the governor's office that set off a 212-story high bonfire at Sand Island in Honolulu harbor. Many churches planned public prayers. Army units at nearby Schofield barracks planned to parade and fire a salute for each state in the union. Navy destroyers stand ing a mile off Waikiki bridge fired flare ammunition. And Army aircraft dropped flares off Waikiki. Pineapple Design The favorite in crochet, the pineapple design, is the main part of this chair-set.

The Pacific Fleet Headquar ters is based at Pearl Harbor, but never again will be seen a great fleet bottled up there as it was on that tragic Dec. 7, 1941. Instead, there is rare ly more than a few ships oth er than the radar picket de stroyers permanently based in the islands or the submar ines also based here. The muscle of the fleet is kept at work patrolling the open seas Thumbnail Sketch Of Economy in Hawaii Given Honolulu - This is the way Thomas K. Hitch, research di rector of the Hawaii Employ ers council, gives a thumbnail description of Hawaii's pros perous economy: Sears, Roebuck and Co.'s Honolulu store does more business than 95 per cent of its mainland outlets. -Next to Europe, more people think of Hawaii as their dream vacation destina tion than any other place in the world. Fourth of Sugar Crop -Hawaii produces nearly one-fourth of the American domestic sugar crop and pays its field workers four times as much as Puerto Rico. -More telephone calls are transmitted over the Honolulu-California circuit than be tween any other two overseas points in the world. -Hawaii produces more than 80 per cent of the pine apples and pineapple juice consumed in the nation. around our Asian defense perimeter or on constant ma neuvers in waters between Hawaii and the mainland. Next door to Pearl Harbor is Hickam Air Force Base, whose only permanent fight ing planes based there belong to the Hawaii Air National MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Oregon, Friday, March 13, 1959 3A Guard, charged with the air defense of the islands. Other wise, Hickam is a service base for transiting transports or fighting planes shuttling back and forth between America and the Orient. Constant Readiness The Army has its Pacific headquarters at Old Fort Shafter near the heart of the ctiy. Farther out in the rural area is Schofield barracks of "From Here to Eternity" fame where the streamlined pentomic 25th Division of perhaps 12,000 men is station ed in constant readiness to move at a moment's notice to put out a "brush fire" war dr even bigger anywhere in the Pacific. The Marines also have a ready fighting force of planes and men based on the wind ward side of Oahu from Hon olulu at Kaneohe Marine Air Station.
