Study Shows Lag
In Scientific
Education in U.S.
Washington-(Science Serv
IceiffLag in early science edu
cation and failure to teach
icience students foreign lan
guages in the United States
are among the major obsta
cles to the advance of West
ern science.
. A report from the science
adviser's office of the North
Atlantic Treaty Organization
highlighted these U.S. fail
ings, but also noted that they
ire common to most of the
nations in the West.
Fund Shortage
Other major obstacles to
science advances in the West
em nations are shortages of
funds, buildings, equipment,
qualified teaching and tech
nical personnel. Adequate
salaries and status for gov
ernment or teaching scientists,
exchange of scientists and de
velopment of coherent plans
for the future on both nation
al and international levels
are also needed.
, Unless such obstacles are
overcome, modern science,
which has its origins in the
west, might in the future be
dominated by the east, par
ticularly the USSR.
. Imitating the Soviet system
of centralized and controlled
direction of all science activi
ties is not the answer, the
report said. Although the
USSR strong priority system
has enabled the Russians "to
achieve outstanding results,"
such a system is alien to a
democratic nation and also to
an international organization
of democratic states.
Action Needed
, National action, the report
said, is needed to remove all
artificial barriers now hinder
ing greater international cir
culation of students and scien
tists in the West.
. The establishment by each
country of a science council,
to "include scientists, selected
for their proven ability to ad
minister scientific programs,"
also was recommended as
well as the establishment of
an International Institute of
Science and Technology. Each
of the science councils would
coordinate national efforts
with the objectives of the in
ternational institute.

Accused Admits
ifing Oregonian
San Diego, Calif. - IUPI) - A
Layafette, La., man admitted
on the witness stand Wednes
day that he fatally stabbed
his brother-in-law.
Percy Catalon, 23. an act
ing Marine Corp sergeant at
Camp Pendleton, told a Dis
trict Court jury he stabbed
Gary Baum, 23, of Jefferson,
Ore., when the victim started
to strike him.

a swing" at him and missed
but was preparing to swing
again when the stabbing oc
curred. Catalon's 21-ycar-old wife,
Beverly, told the court the
incident occurred when she
and her brother returned
home after drinking at sev
eral Oceanside ba

Sen. Byrd Remains
Silent t lection
Washington-fllPD-Sen. Harry
F. Byrd, Democratic patriarch
of Virginia, is expected to let
the Nov. 8 election go by
without naming his choice in
the presidential contest.
Friends of the conservative
Virginian said- today that he
intends to continue sitting out
the campaign unless some un
foreseen development causes
him to change his mind.
His silence so far has done
much to build Republican con
fidence that Vice President
Richard M. Nixon will win
Virginia's 12 electoral votes
from Sen. John F. Kennedy.
Virginia now rates at the
top of the normally Demo
cratic states of the South
which GOP campaign cap
tains hope and believe can
be carried by Nixon in the
election next month.
Aided by a growing Repub
lican vote and a similar atti
tude on the part of Byrd.
President Eisenhower carried '.
Virginia in both 1952 and
1956.

Blind Person Able To
Operate Switchboard
With New Development
A unique device that en
ables a blind person to oper
ate any telephone switch
board has been developed by
two Portland engineers of
Pacific Telephone-Northwest.
The announcement was
made recently by F. M. Mit
chell, vice president and gen
eral manager for the com
pany's Oregon operations, at
a press demonstration held at
the Portland Vocational Re
habilitation center of the
Oregon Commission for the
Blind.
Mitchell said a pilot model
has been used successfully by
personnel of the center since
April of this year.
A patent is pending for the
unit in the names of Harry R.
Banks and Charles Nicker
son, the engineers who con
ceived and devised it at the
request of Charles C. Brown,
director of the rehabilitation
center.
New Field Opened
"A new field of employ
ment opportunity will be
opened by the Bell Tele-
Braille, since the unit gives
sightless switchboard at
tendant almost the same capa
bilities of speed and accuracy
in operating a board as a per
son with normal vision,"
Brown said.
The unit is simply a small
box attached to the side of a
switchboard. On top of the
box is a perforated metal
plate through which 10
"pins" can rise to form var
ious Braille codes. All infor
mation, which is normally
seen by a sighted person op
erating a switchboard, is
translated by the Tele-Braille
into code to be instantly read
by a sightless attendant
Important Feature
An Important feature is the
ability of the unit to1 give the
information to the attendant
in its proper sequence when
several calls come into the
board at once.
The unit can be attached to
the switchboard without mod
ification of the board itself
so that a sighted person can
operate the board without
reference to the Tele-Braille.
Blind persons can be quick
ly trained on the Tele-Braille
since it is engineered to use
Braille codes with which they
are already familiar. All com
plexities are handled by elec
tronics within the unit, lcA-
ing the attendant free to give
her attention to good tele
phone service.

Westinghouse, IUE Voice Optimism
