It does not matter whether It has been the wasteful utilization of our forest wealth, prairie land, water re sources or in just hunting and fish ng for most men take that altitude. Until such an attitude is replaced -with a feeling on the part of each of us that "this resource belongs to mo and it Is my duty to see that it is not destroyed." Until we of America develop this type of atti tude the combined efforts of all nur conservation agencies will be as fu tile as shoveling snow with a pitch fork. It Is not enough to ask for In creased appropriations for the Fish and Wildlife Service, the National Park Service, the Soil ConservS' tlon service, the Forest Service and all the other agencies engaged in conservation work. Nor win in- creasing taxes upon special users of resources like those upon the users of the outdoors In state hunt ing and fishing licenses, duck stamps and what not will solve the problem. It is true that more money is needed for conservation work in many places and we Indi vidual Americans will be called upon to furnish the finances through taxes and contributions, but money lone, - cannot accomplish every thing, as we have discovered to our sorrow in our foreign relations. Let tia look at hunting and fish ing for a moment as a good exam ple of our attitude toward outdoor resources. In England, good hunt ing and fishing have been main tained for hundreds of years, de spite a dense population, because the game and fish belong to the landowners, They have a personal Interest In It, and they care for it. The streams are not over fished and the game is not overshot. In the United States we believe the gams belongs to all the people. As a result of belonging to every body, the game. In effect, belongs to nobody. On many carefully man aged, productive English trout streams, privately owned and fished by only a limited number of anglers, the daily limit is a brace of fish. That's English for a pair of a kind. On most of our public streams, fished by an end less procession of anglers from the beginning of the season to the end, the limit Is 10, 15 or 20 trout a ridiculous figure that could not be produced by any river in the world. . .. I certainly don't advocate the adoption ot the English system. I BRUCE BIOSSAT The cane of Dr, J, Robert Op penheimer, the physicist who head ed the wartime Los Alamos labor atory where the atomic bomb was made, adds up to a very strange and sad story. He is now und:r suspension from his various advisory positions to top government defense agencies, pending the outcome of an Inquiry by a spelcal security panel of tnc Atomic Energy Commission. Oppenheimer is charged with many things that are said to make him a security risk. On most of these he has been tried and cleared before, but since new accusations have been added and new security regulations are in force, the AEC (elt it mandatory to re-examine the dentist's file. It would not be wise for outsiders to try to prejudge his case. A board of respected men is studying It and we must await its findings. But it Is reasonable to look at some part of Oppcnhclmer's life which aeem to account for his present Involvement. For the most part, he Is charged with having actively pursued Com munist associations during the per iod 1040 to 1043. But he Insists he never joined the Communist Party nor accepted its rigid doc trines. He was drawn to Commu nist ideas through their "humani tarian" appeal, as were so many intellectuals in recent decades. Yet Oppenheimer had no knowl edge against which to measure the validity of this appeal. His mind 1nfn U'Ck rnmnlnln ,..,., .M .... turn was a complete vacuum on pontics and economics. During his early professional days in California, except for some .outside attention to lileraturc, he was totally Immersed In science. He never read newspapers or mag azines. He had no radio and no telephone. He did not learn of the LHW for EASTER from Suburban Flower Shop Corsages Roses Prices to Pease EVERYONE VYt deliver. Open Evenings, 'til 2:00 on Sunday.

What I do advocate, and what I believe with all sincerity, is that sportsmen who are aware of the direction their free sport is mov ing must somehow instill in trie majority of men who hunt and fish a feeling of possession, a realiza tion that the game and fish are j theirs to cherish and preserve - not something to which they mere ly must beat the other fellow. Most sportsmen adhere to the common misconception that the majority of men who hunt and fish are decent law-abiding, square- shooting individuals. I only wish that were the case. With regret, however, I must say that the over whelming majority of men and women who hunt and fish are in terested solely in killing, more game and catching more fish. Near ly all of them either are deliberate game-law violators or else are re strained from violation only by the fear that they will be caught, This applies everywhere, regardless of race, creed, color or financial stat us. The only bit of confirmation I need to point to Is the wall of pro test that meets the game agencies should they even propose cutting the bag limit from Its pres ent traditional position. Cuts in the waterfowl bag brought forth walls from high and low places and more than once I listened to sportsmen say: "It's getting so that it's not worth while to go hunting any more." In addition to being game-law violators or potential ones, many of these individuals "regard the landowners, on whose property they must hunt and fish, solely as stupid pests whose wishes are to be flouted in every way. Gates are left open, fences cut. growing crops trampled, poultry stolen and shot. Such things are not rare oc currences lor they happen every day this community during the hunting season. I could go at great length to cite examples of the obvious violations of the rules of good sportsman ship, however How many hunters do you know who devote a few days each year to improving game habitat in the areas they hunt? How many anglers who spend ct least some time working at stream improvement? Don't write me a letter. I can tell you. 1929 stock market crash until long after the event. He did not vote uutll he was 11 years past eligible voting age. That any intelligent adult could so Isolate himself from his world seems really incredible. He had only to pick up his newspaper to get a broad and reasonably accur ate portrait of his time, yet for years this brilliant scientist never did that simple thing. For this weird Isolation, which made him so incomplete a man and a thinker, Oppenheimer must bear much personal blame. Arthur If. Compton, Vannevar Bush and James B. Conant are proof that scientists can be politically In formed and intelligent, can Indeed sometimes make unique contribu tions to practical world affairs. Yet the whole blame Is not Oppen heimcr's. He was one product of a time when it was not thought nec essary to teach scientists anything but science, or engineers anything but building. They were trained for special performance and keen pur suit of special knowledge, Moat educators in these field know better now. Many schools try to make the scientist a whole man. But the pressures of time work agnlnst him, tending to squeeze out all but his mind-consuming special- No one could demand that the scientist make of himself also a msiorian, an economist and a po mical specialist. But it would an- ..... r pear fnlr to ask that he step away from his retorts and test tubes long enough each day to read his newspaper well. A mere phone call can get you that fire Insurance policy.

D, Some of the instruments avail able to medical men have made an enormous contribution to the diagnosis and treatment of dis ease, yet these are never the whole answer to a medical prob lem. They are really agents of the physician's training and Judge ment. Q Does an electrocardiogram and fluoroscopic examination show whether or not a heart condition is present? Mrs. H. S. A Yes. The electrocardiogram Is a kind of tracing of the electri cal Impulses passing through the heart. In some kinds of heart dis easebut not all this tracing will reveal the presence of the disease ami sometimes its variety. Tne fluoroscopic examination is con ducted with X-ray, and is primar ily aimed at determining the exact size of the heart and large oiooa vessels arouna n. bow oi these valuable tests have to be carefully Interpreted In the- light of other information obtained by history of the patient's illness and by physical examination, and neither Is of value directly in treatment. Q Would the presence of for eign matter revealed by heating a urine specimen indicate a serious disorder? W.H.J. I HAL NEW YORK Wl The other night I heard a man say right out loud that, if he ever had a chance for a second life, he would prefer to return to the earth as a woman. This startled me. Being a wo man has always seemed to me one of those unlucky mishaps in life that happen to about half the pop ulation. Whenever I hear a woman brag ging about how she enjoys woman hood, I figure she's just being a good sport and is trying to put her best face forward and make the most of a raw deal. But for a man to want to essay the role of womanl Outlandish I Would a dog want to be a cat? "Why?" I asked this male trai tor. "Because woman is the sex of the future," he said, "And anyone who wants to keep in step with the times would, If he had a choice, naturally prefer to be a woman. "This Is the twilight of the American male. Men have been going downhill ever since they quit packing swords and started car rying umbrellas. "In two centuries man has de generated from cock-of-the-walk to a servile lackey to a lady. Women control so much ot the world's wealth today that five out of six husbands have to borrow, bus fare from a woman even to go to work in the morning. "In another generation at the most the process will be complet ed. Then only ignorant people will be men. But they won't be really men; they'll be abject prisoners. Worse even slaves." "Just how do you figure that out?" I asked. "Well," he replied. "Let's look at what Is happening. In the old days a man came home tired and hungry and looking for peace. His wife was all worn out, too, from toting In firewood, doing the washing, lugging water from the well, feeding the kids and slopping the pigs and maybe even milk ing i few cows. "Both husband and wife were too exhausted to pick on each oth er, and marriage was a draw." "You mean it isn't now?" I murmured. Anybody with any sense knows it isn't," he replied sharply.

A This presumably refers to a test aimed primarily at finding the presence of albumin. When found In fairly sizable quantities this Is commonly one sign of kid ney trouble and certainly a cause for investigation of .that organ. Occasionally It appears to be pres ent when it dqes not represent any fundamental serious disorder. Q Can you tell me anything about the gas which is supposed to be used In fluorescent bulbs? "Mrs. R.B. A I believe this is usually ar gon or some similarly inert gas. I have not heard of any harm from breathing this gas after the breaking of a bulb if that is what is worrying you. Q I have been attempting to have the hair on my face removed by electrolysis for six months but It keep Eoming back darker and coarser. How many treatments does it take? L. G. A The purpose of electrolysis is to destroy the follicle or bed from which the hair grows. When this is done the hair will not sprout from that follicle again. When properly performed it should take only one treatment for each particular folicle through these hair beds can, of course, be quite close together. BOYLE husband still comes home all worn out from work. But the housewiie has so many gadgets to lighten ber labor that she still has some fight left in her at nightfall. This gives her a big edge In an argu ment; the husband simply doesn't have the strength left to defend himself." "And you think this situation will get worse?" I inquired. "Worse?" he whined. "Wake up, man, you're facing utter disaster! "In the pushbutton home of the future, a wife will press one but ton and zingo! the dishes are washed. She plays another small tune on a control panel and the vacuum cleaner will gallop around the house and clean It up In 12 minutes. "The wife will then have the rest of the day in which to lie down and rest while she dreams up new ways to act as a Monday morning quarterback to her hus band. "When he comes home, all worn out naturally, she will push anoth er button and out will pop his pro cooked, pre-frozen dinner. By the time he has gulped it down there Is mama,, fresh and strong as a buffalo in April, ready to tell him 1,001 things that are wrong with him. What chance has he to ar gue back? He's all worn out from earning her a living. "All he can do is sit there and cry, remembering a time when men were men, and swords hung from their side. "Marriage in the future will be strictly a one-way deal and it'll be the woman's way. Wouldn't any one with a grain of Intellect pre fer being a woman In that kind of a civilization?" Oh, well! I still think that guy Is probably as nutty as a pecan grove, but on the other hand hmm, hinm, hmm.

' . Nine million' meals every month breakfasts, dinners and suppers must be served to some 105,000 patients and several hundred staff members. Cost of the rations (a day's food supply) varies with the type of hospital patient, the high est being in the general medical and surgical 'hospital, next the tu berculosis hospital and then the do miciliary homes and neuropsychia try hospitals. For instance, in November, Inst month for which complete figures are available, total spent for food in all VA hospitals was $3,632,000, or an average ration cost of $1.01 per patient. A staff of 23,000 persons is re quired for the purchase, supervi sion, warehousing and preparation oi lood, part of which Is purchased centrally and distributed from BA supply depots, though a great por tion oi tne perishables including meats, are purchased locally by each hospital. Milk, meats, eggs and fresh vege tables are all supplied by local firms to hospitals on contract, each bidder meeting specifications for the best quality material at the lowest possible cost. Q. I've just been released from active duty and I plan to apply within the 120 days allowed me for the kind of CI term Insurance available to Korean veterans.
