Use Of Ice
Study Spurred
BOSTON Iffl Air Force scientists
ire rushing research on a problem
ot swiftly-growing importance to
the United Stales and Royal Cana
dian air forces in the .strategic
arctic how to use the snow and
ice as safe landing fields.
They hope to develop an air
borne indicator of ice thickness
and strength for arctic aircraft.
With the increasing significance
of the arctic in the defense pro
gram and aircraft more and more
needed in those snowy wastes, the
Air Force Cambridge Research
Center said today.
"The problem of safe lendings
and takeoffs by heavily loaded
aircraft has reached major pro
portions." From now until May, scientists
of the research center will be set
ting of thundering charges of TNT
In the far north. Helicopters will
drop assorted pointed projectiles
irom various heights onto the Ice.
Huge tanks of 80-ton capacity will
be loaded onto the ice and pumped
lull of water.
Researchers will saw out big ice
beams and load them to the break
age point. They will cut out cylin
drical samples of ice for testing.
Ice crystals In process of growth
will be studied under microscopes.
Experts" are in Hopodale. Lab
rador, to conduct 17 separate ex
periments between now and spring.
Eight square miles around Hope
dnle harbor will be the study area.
Researchers will travel over the
ice by motor toboggan, truck and
weasel.

MOSCOW (UP Russia
today it has rejected an American
offer to sell the Soviets surplus
American farm products because
the. West refuses to lower Its bar
rier on trade in strategic goods.
A statement by the official Soviet
news agenw Tass confirmed that
Secretary of State, John Foster
Dulles and Soviet Foreign Minister
V. M. Mololov discussed the sale
of American surplus farm prod
ucts last Nov. 13 at Geneva.
But it sid Molotov told Dulles
it was not necessary to discuss
selling farm products but rather to
eliminate barriers at all inter
national trade.
The Tass dispatch referred to
the recent State Department state
ment "concerning trade between
the USA and the Soviet Union" in
which the Nov. 13 Dulles-Molotov
discussion was mentioned.
Then, the Tass dispatch aald of
the Dulles-Molotov conversations:
"It was pointed out by the Soviet
side that there was a generally
recognlied necessity for the devel
opment of contact between the
countries, especially concerning
the restoration ot normal conai-.
Hons in Internationa! trade, and
that it was necessary to discuss j
not the particular case of selling i
farm products but about the ellmi- U
nation or carriers pui up in icceiu
years and the task ot developing
International trade specnicauy Be
tween the US and the USSR."
The Soviet statement pointed out
Russia is-trading with many coun
tries on "a mutual basis and on
the basis of mutual benefits."
SAN FRANCISCO (UP Medl
cal scientists of the University of
California have traced down the
cause of "shipyard eye."
"Shipyard eve" is a disease that
afflicted thousands of persons dur
ing the war years and still causes
trouble. It got Its name because
It Is an occupational hasaid of
shipyard workers.
The cause, the scientists here
found, is a virus which they have

isolated from materials removed
from the eyelids and corneas of
a seaman suffering from the dis
ease. The scientists' report will be
published tomorrow In Science
Journal.
The disease usually produces an
effect which stops the transmission
of light rays through the eye's cor
nea, thus seriously impairing vis
ion. It may persist up to two years
and can be spread from person I
to person through goggles, instru
ments or personal contact.
The UC medical team succeeded
In growing the isolated virus in
tissue culture of human cells and
tested it agaliiai the serum of per
sons who suffered the disease dur
ing 1851-55 in the United States,
Japan and Italy. In all cases, the
serum had antibodies to the new
virus.
Because of this, the scientists
concluded that the new virus was
regularly associated with the eye
disease, but whether the virus was
the sole cause waa not established.
However, Identification of the vir
us helps to clarify the cause and
may help in combatting the Infeo
lion.
The researchers were Drs. Er
