Scientist Says
3.6 Billion Could
Die in One War
Cape Canaveral - IUPD - A
U. S. science leader said Tues
day that man will run the risk
of killing 3.6 billion people in
a single conflict within the
next 100 years unless he
changes his warring ways.
The figure is close to the
present world population. The
statistical office of U. N. on
July 1, 1061, estimated world
population at 3,080,800,000.
Dr. I. A. Getting, president
of Aerospace Corp., said in an
address prepared for a group
of the nation's top scientists
and technicians that "both the
intensity and magnitude of
conflicts are rising."
Getting cited charts of the
"terrible carnage" of past
wars which in this century
alone, have killed 42.3 mil
lion people.
"Thus," he said, "we are
led to predict that by the first
half of the next century man
kind, If It follows the prec
edent of past years, would ex
perience one war that would
account for some 3.6 billion
deaths."

"the general electorate does
not understand the role of

hag virtually no interest in it."
He said only six states elect
such party officials by popu

He added that the choice of
party leadership "should be
made by those who demon
strate real interest in the

Fine for Cat Killer
Nullified by Court
Philadelphia - (UPI) - A $100
fine imposed on Ernest Mas-
sinl for killing his neighbor's
cat in Lanark Manar, near
Allentown, Pa., was nullified
Tuesday by the State Superior
Court.
The court found that stale
laws decree a man cannot
shoot another's horse, cow,
sheep, goat, pig or bull but
neglect to mention his cat.
The fine was levied on Mas-
slni in Lehigh county court
aiier a jury convicted mm oi
shooting a cat owned by Mrs
Olga Ollogio in his onion
patch four years ago.
The Superior Court said its
ruling was not to be construed
as condoning cat-killing. The
fault lies with the legislature,
the judges said.

Bosworfh Speaks
At Ashland Lunch
Ashland - "To use the bomb
is to invite destruction, but
to fully develop atoms for
peace is to enter the golden
age," according to Harlan P.
Bosworth, a vice president of
Pacific Power and Light com
pany, in a talk here Tuesday.
Bosworth addressed the
Ashland Chamber of Com
merce at its weekly luncheon.
His subject was "Nuclear En
ergy." Bosworth addressed the
Ashland Chamber of Com
merce at its weekly luncheon.
His subject was "Nuclear En
ergy." The problem with the
world, Bosworth said, is that
advances in technology have
outstripped advances in the
humanities. "Science has ad
vanced tremendously in the
last 25 years," he remarked.
"I have heard it estimated
that one half of our work
force today is employed in
the manufacture of products
that were not in production
25 years ago."
"On the other hand, the hu
manities have advanced very
little," he siid. "The problem
is one of morality. We have
developed the power to de
stroy the world but haven't
yet developed the power to
keep it from being used."
Bosworth outlined numer
ous peaceful uses of atomic
energy already In actuality,
among them atomic powered
electricity production plants.
He foresaw the use of nuclear
power In such uses as propell
i n g automobiles, fertilizing
soil, retarding disease and
preserving food.
"The cost of nuclear energy
is going down all the time,"

Attorney General Notes Success
Of Organized Crime Movements
Chicago - IUPD - Aity. Gen
Robert F. Kennedy said Tues
day organized crime has had
"more success" in recent
years in making contacts with
public officials, labor unions
and lawyers - "particularly
lawyers."
"And more and more gang
sters are going into 'respecta
ble' business," he said.
Kennedy said the organ
ized crime infestation has
reached into "all major cities,
not only Chicago, but Detroit,
St. Louis, Kansas City, New
York - with the possible 'ex
ception of the West Coast,
especially Los Angeles."
In Los Angeles, he said,
police and local officials
along with federal authorities
have done the best job of halt
ing racketeering.
Kennedy acl owledged in
response to a newsman's ques
tion that Hot Springs, Ark.,
was "wide open."
Cancer Volunteers
Serve as Waitresses
The local campaign of the
American Cancer Society was
enriched by $68.82 when
women volunteers for the
1963 Crusade acted as wait
resses and served lunch at
the Westgate Oregon Food
store, which sponsored the
event by donating all the sup
plies and proceeds to the Can
cer Crusade.
More than 350 shoppers
paid 19 cents for the luncheon.
Walt Vaughn, southern Ore
gon supervisor for the food
stores, was assisted by his
wife in acting as general
chairman of the event. Volun
teers from Ashland were Mes
dames R. E. Hoffman, Gene
Litwiller and Phil Selby.
Medford women who worked
on the project were Shirley
Boswell and Mesdames Al
Boswell, Thomas Humphries,
L. J. Robison, Lyman Smith
and C. D. Larson.
The luncheon was the first
in a series of special events
scheduled for March and
April.

Yes, we're working with
officials there and plan sol -action,
probably within six
months," said Kennedy. "The
slot machines in Hot Springs
were shipped down from Chi
cago." The attorney general said
federal officials were com
batting crime under a "differ
ent concept" than previously
used, largely because of the
crime legislation passed by
Congress a year and a half
ago.

Organized crime can be
wiped out, he said, "but we're
not close - it will take many,
many years." He revealed
that the federal government
had "intensified" efforts to
curb the syndicated lawless
ness. Local Enforcement Answer
He said the answer to or
ganized crime primarily was
honest local law enforcement.
He declined to elaborate on
what the "change in the cen-

say federal agents were pay
ing more attention to gam
bling. Gambling, Kennedy said,
has replaced narcotics as thj
big venture of the crime syndicate.
