MEDFORD MAIL TRIBUNE, MEDFORD. ORE- 8 B Conferences on World Science Problems Urged Los Anceles -(Science Serv- ' Ice- Before the United States embarks upon any new large scale aid programs, it should sponsor a world-wide confer ence to explore the scientific and educational needs ; of under-developed countries. This was proposed here by D-. Joseph Kaplan, professor of ohyslcs at the University of California at Los Angeles and chairman of the United Slates Committee for the In- ternational Geophysical Year. He said that such a confer ence, at which African, Asian and Latin American scientists and engineers could present their special problems, would make American aid more ef fective and eliminate wasted effort. - Russia May Call Parity Dr, Kaplan recently re turned from the first inter national ' conference of this type, held at the Weizmann Institute of Science in Israel. Russia will probably call a similar conference In the near future, he predicted. '. On the basis of discussions at the Weizmann Institute con. forence, which brought to gether representatives from 40 countries Dr. Kaplan urges that American efforts be guided along the following lines, 1. Instead of sending high' powered experts to solve par ticular scientific or techno logical problems, the United States should let new coun tries develop their . own ex perts by encouraging a sound educational system, from elementary school on up. Small Countries Favored 2. If technical experts are needed, they should- come preferably " from small' ad vanced countries like Israel or Denmark,, whose problems are similar to those of the newer nations, and whose mo tives are less likely to be suspected than those of Russia or the V United States, How ever, in some areas, such as the use of visual teaching aids, only the larger countries will be able to supply the neces sary know-how.- 3. The type of conference proposed by Dr. - Kaplan should be held, regularly In different countries, sponsored by universities or scientific - associations, rather than gov ernment agencies. ;', , Colored Light System Guides Landing Pilots Atlantic City, N.J.-(Science-Servlce)-Pilots landing here for the Federal Aviation Ag ency's Second Annual Fly-In are testing a new system for helping pilots glide their planes down at the -correct angle for a safe, smooth touch down. - Called the British RAE Cal vert path system, it (s simple but effective. Red and white lights are angled along either side of the runway. If a pilot is coming in correctly, he is at an angle where he can , sec both color lights. i If he is too high, he will see only the white lights. If too low, he will see only the red ones. The private pilots attending the Fly-In can also see a var ie'.y of new devices designed to make their flying easier. Can Learn Distance One Is a new, lightweight distance-measuring equipment (DME) for light aircraft. With A a lightweight DME Instrument , In a plane, a pilot can learn his distance from unmanned stations spaced about the U.S. Ihese data, when combined with directional Information also broadcast from units, pin points a plane's location. The prvlate pilots also are attending lectures on a new "custom" service they can get beginning Oct. IS. From then on they will be able to receive the latest Information on air navigation aids, weather con ditions and airport conditions by radio from ground sta-tlons. If the pilot has given these stations his route in advance, they will tailor this informs tlon to that route.
