Mt-Lll-UKL), OftcljOPI Racial Tensions in East, West Becoming New Cold War Battleground By GEORGE SIBERA United Nations, N.Y.-IUPI-Soviet Russia apparently has decided to make political capital out of recent racial riots in Mississippi. The West in general and the United States in particu lar are seemingly determined to counter just as fast with charges oi persecution of .-vs throughout Soviet Rus lia. .his was the conclusion ol diplomats who attended last week's East-West dispute over racial problems in the Social, Humanitarian and Cultural committee of the General As sembly. Their consensus was that ra cial tensions and discrimina tion on both sides will in creasingly become a new cold Small Worlds Around Us By Lynn W. Watkin (Rtcliter Tribune Syndicate, 12 Balance Means LIMIe Fish For Bia Fish to Grow On The man standing in the ilern of the boat casting plug Into a clump of lily pads was a specialist, a man dedi cated to the sport oi oiacK bass fishing. He fished the lake frequent ly, had In fact for several years, but now after a day on the lake he was heard to com plain, "you can't catch a sin gle bass from this lousy lake that's over ten inches long." This man claimed to be an expert. In the art of bait cast ing he was, but in overall knowledge of fish biology and that vague and much dis cussed "balance of nature" theory he was pitifully ig norant. He and osiers of the same idea had insisted on "killing the lake." It was accomplish ed by poisoning the waters until every fish was killed. The.i after a suitable interval, end still on his suggestion, only fingeiiing bass were planted. Silent, Vicious u The silent, but vicious "cat or be eaten" formula began unseen in the lake water. The bass had little of anything to feed upon except one another. Fish population is dependent upon that group of fish below it for sustenance. Adding more bass cannot produce bet ter bass fishing, it only in creases the competition be tween individual bass for Ihe same amount of food. To help the balance get bal anced, at the time the finger ling bass were introduced, there should have been other species of fish, commonly known as forage fish; fish that feed upon vegetable matter, as well as those that eat in sects, worms, snails, or insect larvae, as well as great num bers of mosquito wrigglers. The balance in a pond or a lake, even in the sea for that matter, is simply the ratio oi one group to the group below it. In this lake, in which the man was fishing, there were just too many bass, a condi tion difficult for a real bass fisherman to understand. First Few Months For Ihe fust few months ol a fish's life, if it be a fish eating fisli when adult, it feeds on insects, worms, snails, and certain amounts of plank ton. Later, when grown, it rats fish smaller than itself. To the very young fish, mo squito larva, insects and insect larva is the vital food. If insect life is in short sup ply, then eventually the fish population is limited. Just how much effect the mosquito eradication programs will have on the future of all kinds of spoil fishing is something only the future can reveal. There are many de luded folks today who would like to see all insects de stroyed. What this will mean if accomplished, is another problem future fishermen will have to face. Balance is that precarious condition whereby there ,tre ample supplies of algae, in sects, and aquatic insect larva, Including mosquito wrigglers, to feed the small fish that Ihe bigger fish will eal. If one important link In the chain breaks or is twisted out of shape by man's bungl ing, the entire balance lips the wrong way- it's out of balance. war battleground in the 1 lu nation world organization. After three days of bitter verbal duels, the committee passed "unanimously" a reso lution recommending "speci fic measures to eliminate manifestations of racial dis crimination and national and religious intolerance." Legislation Demanded The draft, to be approved soon by the General Assem bly, fllso demands abolition of any discriminatory laws and adoption of legislation to combat prejudice and intolerance. Woman diplomats, who form one-third of the commit tee complement, fought the racial issue with manly de termination. Battle started be tween Israel and the Arab stutcs but in the Social com mittee as anywhere else soon found the United Stales face to face with Russia. Irked by Communist dele gales' frequent anti-western jabs, Australian Delegate H. D. White denounced the "vile and inflammatory" character of anti-semilism in Russia. While charged that an "un duly large number of death penalties" had been passed on Jews in the USSR. He de manded that Moscow allow Jews to K'ave the country. Some in Key Posts Portly Mrs. T. N. Nikolae va, the Soviet delegate, ac cused the Australian diplomat of making "anti-Soviet calum nies." She said the 2.3 million Soviet Jews often held key posts: 33,529 were scientific workers, 14 7 per cent of all doctors, 8.5 per cent of all authors and journalists, and 10.4 per cent of all legal ex- Patholoqv Professor Studies Armadillo New York (UPli One study of birth and pregnancy in volves a closer look at the nine-banded armadillo, tech nically known as dasypus no vemcinctus.

The study is supported by a Na tional Foundation grant. pcrts in Russia were Jews, she said mocking alleged anti semitism in the West. The Soviet delegation un leashed a new direct attack on racial tensions in the U.S. when Mrs. Marietta P. Tree, the American delegate, asked her Russian counterpart why Jews had to mention their race in Soviet passports and why Jews have not been al lowed to form a national or ganization of their own. In a lengthy statement that showed that Soviet files on racial incidents in the U.S. are being kept up-to-date, Mrs. Nikolaeva attacked the "punitive provisions" against Negroes in a number of states. She also cited incidents in volving African diplomats in Washington and New York. Accused of Genocide The Russian woman diplo mat said that "99 United States Negro leaders" have petitioned the UN accusing the United States of genocide. She claimed that threat of force was being used to pre vent American Negroes from registering as voters. She mocked the treatment of Puerto Ricans and Indians and charged that anti-sem- itism in the United States was a "unique American phe nomenon showing that Hitler is not dead." The U.S. delegate promptly brushed aside the accusations as "vicious half-truths." She said the U.S. government has demonstrated in Mississippi and elsewhere that it was "un reservedly opposed to racial segregation." The Mississippi incidents were one more step forward towards assuring a man's dig nity without distinction of color or creed. But while U.S. flaws and shortcomings were freely reported and open to Inspection, racial tensions wprp hpinff rarpfnllv pnnnABl ed in the USSR, she said.

Mechanical Microbe Hunter May Be Sent To Mars in 1964 A 7 By JOSEPH L. MYLER Washington - tl'Pli -The United States hopes to send a mechanical microbe hunter to Mars in late 1964. What it finds may answer the centuries-old question of philosophers and scientists: "Is there life beyond our atmosphere, or are we alone in the universe?" The robot huntsman, which may weigh no more than a pound and a half, won't be looking for anything remark ably strange. It wouldn't rec ognize it. Scientists almost have to as sume, for the purpose of early Martian exploration, that any life on the red planet is built fundamentally like life on earth. They know how to delect and analyze the living organ isms of their home planet. If Mais has evolved a kind of life based on a different kind of chemistry, perhaps not even a human scientist would ! be able to identify it at first glance. Must 'Think' Little Space robots can hunt only what they have been told to look for. They can be told to look for only those kinds of life with which their earth bound masters arc familiar, and for the time being they must "think" little instead of big. Mars conceivably may har bor "giant" creatures in sects and animals evolved to feed on such vegetation as the planet may support. But the first small instruments land ed on Mars must of necessity be geared to look for small forms of life. If Martian life is anything like earth's, microbes must exist to decompose larger forms. So microbial life is an obvious target for early in vestigation with tiny instru ments. Both U. S. and Soviet sci entists have conducted experi ments to see what kinds of earthly microbes might be ex pected to survive and perhaps flourish in the cold and dry and oxygen-scarce environ ment of Mars. Lifa Can Adapt On earth microscopic or ganisms are known to sur vive in deserts, in hot springs, in the bitter cold of Antarc tica, in salt ponds, and in acids. Life, it appears, can adapt to extremes of all sorts. Martian conditions, to the extent they are known, have been imitated in laboratories here and abroad. Some tiny forms of earth life have not only survived under these con ditions but have thrived. According to Dr. Robert C. Seamans Jr., associate chief of the National Aeronautics and Space administration, "We have a list of 18 different kinds of microbes we might find on Mars." The list is expected to grow. How, if these things- live on Mars, can they be detected in the near future? Seamans cit ed the "sticky string" device. Some time in late 1964 an Atlas-Centaur or Titain-Cen-taur rocket will fly close to Mars. At the appropriate time it will eject a small capsule into Mars' gravitational field.

The capsule will shoot "sticky strings" out over the Martian landscape and then reel them in. Multiply Lustily Any Martian microbes ad hering to the strings will pass through a minuscule chamber containing a nutrient mate rial labeled with radio-active carbon-14. Microbes feed greedily and multiply lustily. In the process they emit car bon dioxide. A radiation counter would take note of the tagged carbon and report it by radio trans mission to earth. Said Sea mans, "If the strings trap even as few as five microbes, a positive signal will be re ceived by monitoring stations on earth, provided they like the meal we have furnished them." Many other devices, all of them miniature laboratories, have been devised. But the sticky-string huntsman is like ly to be the first on the Mar tian landscape. Mars may turn out to be lifeless. But to establish life- lessness you have first to look for life. As Seamans said: "The best way to learn more about the universe is to travel in it, and to note and analyze everything we discov er. For the first time in his tory, rockets allow us to do exactly that." Irish Step Up Drive To Lure More Tourists By BERT L. MARSH Dublin - IUPII - Irish govern ment and tourist officials are scouring the New World and the European continent for ideas in a stepped-up drive to lure more tourists to the Emerald isle. Officials said the ambitious drive includes plans for large scale hotel modernization, ex tension of Irish Airlines' flights to Montreal and the midwestern United States and a stepCd-up advertising cam paign in North America and Europe. Timothy J. O'Driscoll, di rector-general of the Govern ment Tourist board, said in an Interview h i s department's drive already has shown one major result. Thirty-five in ternational conventions nave been scheduled in Ireland this i year. O Urlscoll said ireiana WHS JU-1J. iu gefe lliu, c Mian a couDle of such meetings three- or four years ago.

Hotel men in this country, ,,il,inU nffini..:.. oair! ha. henn short of hotel accommodation in the past, are shopping for Ideas that will draw more tourists into enlarged facili ties. Willie Opperman, general manager of Jury's Hotels Ltd., which has two hotels in Dub lin, already has made several visits to western Europe to see what the Europeans are doing to boost business. He said he plans to tour the United States and Canada in November. New Ideas upperman aireaay nas put some New World ideas into practice. He is spending 1 mil lion pounds ($2.8 million) add ing 200 rooms to one of his hotels. The rooms will feature individual air conditioning, television and radio, bath rooms with showers, and be convertible from daytime sit ting rooms to bedrooms. Aside from government and industry plans, one thing on which Ireland is counting to draw tourists, and bring them back again, is the traditional friendliness of the Irishman who likes nothing better than tn meet a foreigner and sound off about his country's virtues. The state-owned Acr Lingus advertises Itself as "The Friendly Airline." O'Driscoll said he wants people to come to "the friendly country." Amusing Comments Found in Textbook Dallas, Tex.
