The Red Cross Reports
By JOY ROLPH
The 159 pints of blood collected
at Merrill on June 4 plus the 251
pints gathered at the Masonic
Lodce on June 5 put our commu

quota for the quarter, reports
Mrs. Madelyn Swaney, chairman
of blood program for the Klamath
County chapter, who extends a
"thank you" to all who save blood.

visit a rousing success.
Meanwhile, 165 pints of blood
were used in June and July from
the bank supply by sick and in
jured in the Klamath area, plus
three walking donors who were
called to aid a local victim of
pernicious anemia.
The National Red Cross is ex
panding its program of blood fur

S0.0O0 to 120.000 pints. To ease the
strain on an over-taxed budget.

Israel Watchful Observer Of U.N. Meet
Rocket Astronomy Finding
That Our Sun Is Litterhug
By ALTON BLAKESLEE
Associated Press Science Writer
MOSCOW (API Rocket astron
omy is finding evidence our sun is
a litterburg.
The sun is strewing a lot of hy
drogen gas around in the earth's
front yard and in the path of all
planets of the solar system.
If you could expose a quart
milk bottle to this gas in space,
it would pick up from 100,000 to a
million hydrogen atoms, reports
Dr. Herbert Friedman of the U.S.
Naval Research Laboratory in
Washington.
Most if not all of this gas ap
parently comes from the sun,
which ejects it in vast flares.
But, interplanetary space is still
a pretty good vacuum. A quart of
air at sea level contains ten mil
lion billion atoms. '
Friedman's report is new evi
dence the sun's atmosphere in ef
fect extends all the way to the
earth, which is a distance of 93
million miles, and probably be
yond. It is also evidence that
space Is not quite so empty as
once believed.
Friedman and his associates or
iginated a new, third kind of as
tronomyobservations made with
rockets rather than with earth
telescopes catching visible light or
with recording of radio waves
from space. The American scien
tist described the finding at a
meeting today of the International
Astronomical Union.
The rockets are equipped to see
only ultraviolet light of a kind
much more energetic than that
which tans your skin. Rising to
heights of about 100 miles, the ul
traviolet eyes see a remarkable
spectacle.
Space becomes aglow with in
tense light, rather than being
black.

Top U.S. Stamp Trader
Named In Smuggling Case
NEW YORK (AP)-A top Amer

smuggling thousands of dollars
worth of stamps from Red China.
The dealer, hurt Weishaupt ol

Federal Trading With the Enemy

He is scheduled to plead next
Tuesday. If found guilty, he would
face a possible maximum sentence
of 40 years in prison and $40,000

stamps from shanghai between
November 1953 and February 1957.
An unidentified American naval

to have tipped federal authorities

last year that Communist Chinese

Reconnaissance Units Keep
Vigil On Lebanon Troops
UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (AP), hands
Israel is taking the position of a
watchful observer at the outset of
today's U.N. emergency Assembly
session on the Middle East.
But Israel has made plain to the
Western powers and Secretary
General Dag Hammarskjold that it
cannot be ignored in any vital de
cisions affecting the future of its
area.
Israel's delegation to the Assem
bly is headed by Ambassador
Abba Eban. He is being assisted
by Arthur Lourie, the Israeli am
bassador to Canada, and Moshe
Tov, adviser on Latin-American
affairs at the Foreign Ministry in
I el Aviv.
Authoritative sources said this
was Israel's position:
Israel has served notice on the
Western powers that if Jordan
seems about ready to fall into the
of a particular wavelength which
does not reach the earth because
it is filtered out by the earth's
air.
This is a part of the sunlight
which has been bounced around
by atoms of neutral hydrogen.
meaning atoms carrying no elec
trical charge.
The special rocket eyes meas
ured the intensity of this light.
This measurement was the base
for an estimate that there are
1,000 neutral atoms per quart in
space. And it is known that for
every atom of neutral gas there
are 100 to 1,000 electrically
charged hydrogen atoms. There
fore there are 100,000 to 1,000.000
atoms per quart in the interplane
tary area, which means the dis
tances between all planets and the
sun.
When the rocket eyes are tuned
to a higher wavelength they can
see through the glow and locate
distant stars and galaxies as blobs
of radiation. This astronomy
promises to aid greatly in under
standing of the universe.
of President Nasser's
United Arab Republic, defense
considerations will dictate Israel's
course of action.
Uppermost in Israel's mind is
what happened in Gaza. The Israe
lis feel they surrendered Gaza to
U.N. control, only to be confronted
later by Nasser's forces in that
area. They do not intend to see
the same thing happen in Jordan.
The inference is that the Israelis
will occupy all of Jordan west of
the Jordan River and the Dead
Sea, including the Old City of
Jerusalem.
Eban intends to speak In the
Assembly when it gets down to
brass tacks on specific proposals.
He wjll stress Israel's conten
tion that any state threatened by
another has the right to invite help
from a friendly power.
He will also stress that any
guarantees given to Arab states
in the Middle East should be ap
plicable to non-Arab states as
well.

LIGHTNING KILLS MOM
GRAVESEND, England AP)-
A mother of nine children was
killed here yesterday as she bent
over a baby carriage to kiss her
3-month-old daughter Yvonne.
Mrs. Kathleen Hewson was
wearing a metal clip in her hair.
Lightning struck it and she fell
with her hair ablaze. The baby,
Yvonne, was not hurt.
U. S. OFFICIAL HONORED
BERLIN (UPD Martin J. Hil
lenbrand, political adviser to the
u.!. Mission in Berlin who is re
turning to Washington, was hon
ored with a farewell party in the
West Berlin city hall Tuesday
night. He was presented a white
porcelain bear, Berlin's heraldic
figure.
NEW YORK (UPD Two small
American flags hang today in the
ground floor windows, of a build
ing on Park Avenue at 68th
Street. Behind them are the of
fices of a small private organiza
tion, the Bureau of Municipal Research.
The flags are there because
next door is the residential and
office headquarters of the Soviet
delegation to the United Nations. A
few weeks ago, Hungarian demon
strators threw rocks through the
windows because they thought the
offices also belonged to the Rus
sians. It is a mark of the anticipation
there could be trouble while For
eign Minister Andrei Gromyko,
who is leading the Soviet delega
tion to the General Assembly, is
living there.
Gromyko's presence, actually,
seems unlikely to stir emotions at
all the way a visit of Nikita
Khrushchev could. In any event.
New York police are ready to
stop any demonstration quickly.
Police Commissioner Stephen
Kennedy ordered 20 patrolmen,
four sergeants and a captain to
start standing guard at the Rus
sian building at 6 a.m. Twenty
more policemen were assigned
nearby and a detective squad car
was on hand to follow Gromyko
wherever he goes.
The Russian foreign minister
isolated himself in the building
when he arrived Sunday with 34
aides and secret police body
guards. The Soviets had reserved
four suites in the towers of the
Waldorf-Astoria, where President
Eisenhower and John Foster Dul
les are staying. But on arrival at
the airport they drove instead to
the Park Avenue building and
cancelled the Waldorf reserva
tions. Getting any news about the or
dinary activities of Gromyko and
his associates is almost impossible:
BEIRUT, Lebanon (AP) Re
connaissance units of the U. S.

mysterious forces of rebel leader
Jamal Jumblatt make their
camps.

They are not looking for trouble

of all, members of Troop C, an
airborne reconnaissance unit of
the 17th Cavalry, are dug in
snugly. Working with Lebanese
security troops and patrolling on
their own, they keep track of any
disturbances in rebel territory.
Maj. Oran K, Henderson of In
dianapolis, the commander, said:
"According to our information
Jumblatt's army has about 35 per
cent local people from his own
area in its ranks with the other
65 per cent being what we call
strangers. These are said to be
Lebanese from other parts of the
country, Syrians and even Egyp
tians.
"Jumblatt, who is even respect
ed by his opponents, can keep the
local people in his army from
starting the shooting again. His
control over the strangers is ques
tionable, however: that is why we
are here to keep a watch on
things."
