NEW YORK (Special). Johns Manville became a major competi tor in the expanding, nationwide fiber glass industry today, as de tails of its acquisition of L.O.F. Glass Fibers Company were com pleted, and immediately began studying needs for an expansion program. Transfer of all assets and the going business of the Toledo, Ohio, firm, second largest in the fiber glass industry in point of annual ales, to ncwly-orsanized Johns- Manville Fiber Glass Inc.. a wholly-owned subsidiary of Johns Manville Corporation, has been ac complished, it was announced at the close of business today- by A. R. Fisher, chairman and chief executive officer. Johns-Manville Fiber Glass Inc.. has taken over management of sev en fiber glass plants and a Fiber Expert Cites Egg Secrets WASHINGTON (UPI) - In a blob of living matter little larger than the point of a dull pin is packed enough information to fill library of 1,000 volumes. That is the way Dr. George W. Beadle describes the fertilized hu man egg with' its cargo of 10,000 to 100,000 genes, the heredity ele ments which say what the egg will become. "Collectively," Beadle said, "the genes may be thought of as the directions for development in the case of the human egg, a kind of recipe for a person." The minute directions and in structions carried by the genes, all jammed in the egg's nucleus, "constitute a very large amount of information; an amount," Bea dle estimated, "equivalent to the contents of a' good-sized library of ay, 1.000 volumes." ' Beadle, a Nobel prize-winner, is chairman of the California Insti tute of Technology's Division of Biology. He presented a paper on life, heredity, and evolution Thurs day night at a forum on "Re sources for the Future." Beadle said that in recent years Itcientists have learned a lot about genes. They have created genetic material in the test tube. They believe they have broken the code by which genes direct and control the chemistry of life. "Understanding of the nature of life is thus replacing mystery," Beadle said. But there is much more in the me than science so far has been able to get out of it. "If we could but expose the se crets that lie locked within this minute sphere." Beadle said, "we would have achieved complete un derstanding of man. including the manner of his origin from sub human ancestors and the nature of his destiny in an evolutionary future now unknown." Beadle said this will not be ac complished "in your time or mine nor in the time of our sons and grandsons." On The Record KLAMATH TOI'NTV DIVORCE PETITIONS Dorothy Berrtice Bonham vi.

'AUK NliMli Johns-Manville Becomes Top Competitor In Glass Industry With Acquisition Of Libbey-Owens-Ford Fibers Company Male Favored In Diet Tests CHICAGO (UPI) Men are bet ter weight losers than women. A report, issued today by the American Medical Association, on studies of 20-pound weieht losses showed men more successful at dieting than women, but offered no explanation. . , Where loss of 4ft pounds or more is concerned, results are even greater in favor of the male, said Dr. Albert Stunkard. a psychia trist, and Mavis McLaren-Hume, a nutrition expert, in the AMA publication, Archives of - Internal Medicine. Dieting, however, has been magnified "to the proportions of a national neurosis bv recent publicity, they said. They debunked three previous guides to predicting success in losing weignt. One of these, they said, was the nignt-eating syndrome, or raid ing the icebox. . The others were the dieter's anxiety, and his pre vious attempts at losing- weight. None of these characteristics. said the authors, had been signifi cant in studies of 100 weight-losing patients ai a wew York hospital. Terrorists Will Face Fury Of FBI WASHINGTON (UPI) - Stiff new laws to pit the full power of the FBI against "hate bombers" were proposed in Congress today. The legislation was patterned aft er the Lindbergh Kidnaping Act. Key Senate sponsors of the sev en-bill package were Republicans Jacob K. Javits and Kenneth B. Keating, both of New York. Ren. John V. Lindsay (R-N.Y.) planned to introduce the same measures in the House. Javits and Keating said the proposals were designed to halt the activities "of fanatics and racists trying to establish a reign ot terror against churches, syna gogues and integrated schools. Lindsay said the need for con gressional action had been clear ly demonstrated by the nearly 70 bombings and attempted bomb ings reported since 1954, including 27 last year. The bills also would muster the orces of the federal government against "hate mail" when it has the effect of inciting violence. Javits and Keating said local law enforcement agencies were hamstrung now in their efforts to track down such criminals be cause of lack of jurisdiction and resources to do the job. The two senators said there were indications the hate terror ists probably are members of a well-organized gang or gangs op crating in several states. "Seldom have we examined an emergency situation which so urgently requires federal legisla tion to help remedy it," they said. Javits and Keating said their bills were drawn up after confer ences last November with commu nity leaders and officials in Atlan ta. Ga., Birmingham, Ala., and Jacksonville, Fla., where bomb inrs have occurred. Their investigation showed that local law enforcement agencies for the most part have been un able to arrest or convict the hate bombers or check the flood of hate mail, they said.

Barnard has been elected president of Johns-Manville Fiber Glass Inc.. the same post he held with L.O.F. Glass Fibers Com pany. Francis II. May has been elected vice president and general manager. The new J-M fiber glass organization begins ism business ps the tenth operating division of Johns-Manville. Division general of fices are located at Toledo. The new J-M Fiber Glass Divi sion is continuing the manufacture of fiber glass products previously marketed by L.O.F. Glass Fiber's Company. In general these include lyarns, bonded mat, insulations. translucent plastic panels rein forced with fiber glass and com binations of these with other prod ucts and materials. Current J-M fiber glass sales are at the rate of 26 million dollars a year, in addition to normal Johns-Manville sales of more than 300 million dollars annuaily. The new Johns-Manville Fiher Glass Division is a research, de velopment and production division only, it supplies fiber glass prod ucts to five other Johns-Manville divisions the Industrial Insulations Division, the Building Products Division, the Celite Division, the Canadian Products Division and the International Division Sales organizations of these five Johns-Manville divisions, augment ed by the former sales organiza lion ot L.O.F. Glass Fibers Com pany. distribute J-M fiber glass products throughout the United States. Canada and to foreign mar- Kets.. Addition of fiber glass prod ucts expands and complements the wide ranee of industrial products and building materials already merchandised by these J-M divisions. - LIKES AUTO FIRES HAMPTON. . Va.

Increased fiber glass sales ac tivities may put a strain on pro duction facilities at the seven fiber glass plants now operated by .lohns-Manville, Mr. Fisher said. This will be offset as far as nns- s.oie. ne sain, py technical im provements in processes and. when justified, construction of new facil ities.

Addi- tional blanket marhinr-s almnsi doubling capacity at the Corona ana ucliance plants will be in operation by April or Mav. Mr. Fisher said. The seven fiber glass manufac turing plants just acquired bring to the number now operated by Johns-Manville. Kxceot for one plant in Belgium, these plants are widely scattered throughout the United States and Canada. In addition to the Fiber Glass Itoscarch and Technical Center at Waterville.

For warmth, there was a mean monthly temperature of 37.6 de grees, which compares witn a fig ure of 33.6 for December, 1957, and of 31.3 for all Decembers on rec ord. The highest recording for the montn. on December 11. was 62: the lowest, on December 28, was 14. The dryness was even more star tling. Only .76 inch of precipita tion fell during the month, com pared with 3.40 inches in Decem ber, 1957, and 2.00 inches average tor all Decembers on record. This brought the total precipitation for the stream year which began Oc tober 1. 1958, to 1.82 inches, while the average figure is 4.80. December brought 20 cloudy, six partly cloudy, and five clear days. J HftM'T snow me line bifocals Examine me for NolesBlend-VoeUnses!
