SPOKANE Wl Robert J. Neils,
logging superintendent for the J.
Nells Lumber Co., told the closing
session of the Intermountaln Log
ging Conference here Saturday the
Industry's attitude toward safety
'stinks."
"We don't support our safety
men at safety conferences." Neils
charged. "They return home from
safety conferences and bat their
heads against a stone wall for an
other year."
Nells warned that unless the log
ging industry changes its attitude-
toward safety, legislation will be
passed forcing it to. He added that
the best place to demonstrate safe
ty is on the highway, stating that
one poorly-loaded logging truck
can undo a lot of good work.

By ELTON C. FAY
WASHINGTON Wl The United
States is tangled in tne prooiem
of keeping its military secrets
wnile at the' same time letting
Russia learn enough about Amer
lean armament to deter her from
trying war.
This perplexity is involved in
Dart in the current discussion over
how much should be revealed of
ficially about the thermonuclear
bomb tests.
How do you convince the Soviet
government and its military nigh
command that war wouldn't pay
oil, without also telling too much
detail about the nature and size
of the force ready to hit them if
they make the gamble?
Moscow olficials are realists,
never ready to accept unofficial
accounts, demanding solid techni
cal facts before they can be con
vinced. They want to know, and
unfortunately have been able in
the past to get, the range and rate
of climb of new planes; the se
crets of the Implosion process for
triggering nuclear bombs; precise
information on the' type and Intens
ity of light and the size and dura
tion of the fireball In various
atomic explosions to provide iden
tification of explosive materials
used.
Knowing that helps the Russians
make their own weapons. It also
could help convince them that they
are. at a given time, too far be
hind in the technological race to
try war.
But If at any time or for any
reason Soviet technicians decide
they are even or ahead the deter
rent value may be weakened, al
though it Is possible they still
might be reluctant to undertake
a punishing war.
In 1946, when there still lingered
some touches' of the old wartime
spirit of alliance and the deterrent
policy was unplanned, the United
States Invited Russian observers to
ts Bikini atomic bomb tests. They
have seen no American tests since,
except possibly through a peris
scope. But In recent months, as Amer
ican atomic power has expanded
by leaps and bounds, there have
been suggestions that it 'might be
well for foreign observers to have
a refresher course, to convince
everyone, 'friends and potential
enemies, that here Indeed Is a
deterrent.
One of the advocates of this Idea
has been an atomic energy com
missioner, Thomas E. Murray. But
his idea apparently is not shared
by all others of the commission.
Normally, only a bare announce
ment Is made upon completion of
t nuclear test series.
T.ussla may learn some details
because the U. 8. government

First Oil industry 8-ll0Ur day was introduced by Standard in 1917. This
was a major step in our employee relations programs which include
health, pension, insurance benefits and a stock purchase plan under
which 95 of all eligible. Standard Oilers own stock in the Company.
On Lindbergh's trans-Atlantic flight in 1927, we fueled "The Spirit of
St. Louis." Since then, aviation has produced faster, safer airliners,
more potent military planes and Standard's research has aided this
progress. Now we're making fuels for tomorrow's jets' and rockets.

New power for transportation and industry was born in 1935 when'
Standard's first compounded diesel lubricating oil made high-speed
diesel engines a practical reality. Now, in the harnessing of atomic
power, we are working on lubricants for the first atomic submarine.
