Back of the contraption is always the research, development and dis covery previously conducted by private enterprise. One of Kodak's tiniest products, for example, is playing an impor tant role in world wide weather research. The product Is the Ek tron Detector, a special infrared sensitive cell produced by Kodak'; apparatus and optical division in Rochester. Two of these detectors were in the heart of the weather "eye" of the Vanguard II earth satellite put into orbit in Febru- ry. These detectors were one-milli meter-square bits of glass, coated en one side with leaH sufide, photo conductive material sensitive to invisible infrared radiation Their Job was to monitor the amount of the sun's radiant en ergy reflected from the earth's cloud cover, thus providing infor mation on cloud formation and density key indicators of forth coming weather. The detectors transmitted what they "saw" to listening stations on earth by means of radio signals until the satellite's batteries ran down after about 10 days in space The detector was the invention of private industry. Eastman Kodak Company is one of the 30 stocks on the New York Stock Exchange which go to make up the Dow-Janes average. At the end of the first quarter this year pre-tax earnings were about 59 per cent ahead the same period last year. On that date there were 38.382.248 shares of common stock outstanding. Private industry is owned by a lot of individual persons in the USA. jdiller of a report on corn pone You never relax. There's always a big story coming, and often when you least expect it. Then you sprint for your telephone, politely bashing in some other reporter's ribs with your elbow. That's the time when you wish you Had paid more attention in school to history, economics, po litical science and jujitsu. Eventually, sooner than later, you go "on the road" with a presi dent. They all travel. You go by plane or train or credit card car, or slump through the mud in your formerly shiny new shoes. One day you live like a prince. A President goes to some suage resort and you can't lift your hand without finding a daiquiri or a Hol lywood starlet in it. The next day you may find your self slomping along some trout stream trying to catch a glimpse of the president, who remembered to bring along fishing tackle while you didn't. Then there was the time in Mex ico when your correspondent dis covered the only mud puddle in drought-stricken province and sank himself up to the knees in it. Or the time we followed Harry Truman down the Potomac in a World War I sub-chaser with ice floes chasing us and no toilet facil ities aboard. It's a great life if you can stand it. Anybody who can should be se lected immediately to be the first human being to be launched into space. The Almanac' Today is Monday, June 8th, the 159th day of the year, with 206 more days to follow in 1959. The moon Is approaching Its first quarter. The morning star is Saturn. The evening stars are Mercury, Venus, Mars, and Jupiter. On this date In history: In 1881, Tennessee seceded from the Union. In 1869, the late American arch itect Frank Lloyd Wright was UVI II, In 1915, Secretary of State Wil liam Jennings Bryan an out spoken pacifist resigned his of fice in protest against firm notes sent by President Wilson to the Imperial German government, The protest notes followed the sinking of the iLusitania. In 1941, Australian. . . Free French. . . Indian. . . and British forces crossed the frontier into Syria to prevent German occupa tion of Vichy controlled airfields during World War II. . In 1953. the United Stales Su premo Tourt ruled that restau rants in the District of Columbia may not legally refuse to serve what It described at "well-be haved and respectable" Negro pa trons. . . Thought for today: Statesman William Jennings Bryan said "The humblest citizen of all the land when clad in the armor of the righteous cause Is stronger than all the hots of error." ChI.oI elournnllMii By EDCREAGH WASHINGTON lAPi-Hd a let ter from a Journalism student the other day. He'd seen my name ever story about President Ei senhower, and wondered how i man goes about covering the White House. I wish I could tell him. I've been trying to find out since 1947. Ait you really need is the strength of a lion, an encyclopedia in your Drain, an endless capacity for boredom, and a family that is used to getting along without you. It helps if you have a talent for missing meals, battling small town cops, passing up cocktail parties, hopping off moving trains, and when necessary clawing press secretariet. Marvin L. Arrowsmith. who reg ularly covert the White House for The Associated Press, comes as close at anybody I know to meet ing all these requirements. The rest of us occasionally fall by the wayside. I'll never live down that time I missed a presidential press plan In Chicago. On part of the White House beat consists in growing bunions en your spine from titling around the lobby. Now and then you but tonhole callert from such exciting groups as the Save the Chipmunks Federation. Or you get a thriller- July 1 because of a work stop page. From about 300 replies the institute reports small companies would feel strike effects first. Nearly half of these say they'd be out of steel after eight weeks. Aft er 12 weeks three-fourths would be closed down. Of companies with 500 or more employes, 89 per cent can main tain normal operations for more than six weeks, 68 per cent for more than eight weeks and 43 per cent for more than 12. Companies thaf buy steel com poncnts and parts Job shops, tool makers, gear plants, assem biers Counting their own stocks and firm delivery promises from their suppliers, report those with less than 100 employes, 55 per cent would have eight weeks sup ply on hand or in tight, but only 25 per cent would have more f in 12 weeks.' The big firms would fare better: 75 per cent with eight weeks supply and 45 per cent with more than 12. ine real pincn may come in special types of steel. Only half of all companies using structural shapes and heavy plate nave mqre than eight weeks sup ply. A like supply of castings and forgings are held by 5". per cent of all users; 59 per cent of users of bai: and rods are in that position: and 81 per cent of users of pipe ana tuning. Wire and wire products would last 68 per cent of users for eight weeks or longer. And 67 per cent of firms using sheet and strip have more than eight weeks sup ply at hand. By SAM DAWSON AP Business Newt Analyst NEW YORK (AP)-ln all the guessing about whether there'll be a steel strike this summer one question sticks ou How long before the innocent bystanders would be hurt? Just how much stock steel users have been able to pile up is de batable. Some observers think that almost all have enough to keep going for two or three months without further deliveries Others think that many compan ies, particularly the smaller onet, would have to dote down after a few weeks. Some industries serving the steel mills would be quickly af fecled. Example: railroad! that carry coal and ore to the furnaces and tot steel products to users. Another: Coal mines that supply steel mills (ore mines usually are involved directly in any tteel strike). Steel users have been busy tor months building up stocks. Steel mills have been running at near capacity to supply the demand European steel firms have stopped up exports to this country and expect to profit handily it a strike is called and shortages de velop. England recently cut steel prices a little, which could act as a come-on. And the St. Lawrence Seaway has carried a lot of fore ign steel into mid-America. But many would-be builders of steel inventories have found that as a result of the pickup in busi ness activities they were using more of it than they had antici pated. So their stock piles aren't as nign as planned. Some small ue-a of sleel have found that, as the poorer custom ers, they have been put at the end of the list on steel mill order books and have built up little in- cntory. They could be in the fix after a strike, if one develops. To start up again, amall users might have to wait longer for del iveries. To find out Just what the situa tion might be, the Research Insti tute of America Inc., a (act-finding agency for industry, asked its members in the melalworking fields how long thry could keep going If tteel deliveries halted The Lighter Side By FRANK ELEAZER WASHINGTON (UPI) - Dean G. Acheson, the well-known law yer, rhetorician, and former sec retary of state, is in print with his first piece of fiction. What e--.rybody wants to know, he complains, is who wrote it for him. Well, he wrote it himself, while resting of an evening from his la bors before the Supreme Court and other lofty tribunals. It runs about 1,650 words and you can read it under the title, "the Great Fish of Como," in the current Harper's magaiine. For those in a hurry, there was this fisherman, see, and he hooked a big one. but lost it. And I gather that anybody who tries to make more than that out of this piece is wasting his time. "It's just a light little story. based on an incident which I hap pened to witness," Acheson said. "There is no deep hidden mean ing." Mary McGrory. who ponders such literary efforts for the Wash ington Star, in Sunday's paper an nounced it a charming story, and expressed a desire to see more of the same. Tom Donnelly, liter ary critic for the Washington' Daily News, wr-i advised that Acheson said more indeed are in prospect, commented, "I think I can wait." This is not the first time Ache son s public endeavors have prompted certain differences of opinion. He was Harry Truman's secretary of slat, from 1949 on. and criticism leveled at the late John Foster Dulles prior to his fatal illness was mild compared to some of the comments made about Acheson in his day. He currently it enjoying, how ever, along with Truman. John L. Lewit and possibly others, a great revival of public esteem. People lately have been so nice to Acheson, in fact, I suspect he's beginning to worry. But his health so far seen- to be good. Still, he's 66. and claims he's no longer up to the kind of fish ing for trout that he used to like. That's probably why he has turned to story telling in print, in this rase about the wait-and-see kind of fishing he never did care for. "I ve always done a little of this sort of writing, for relaxa tion." Acheson said. "Mostly was just for the amusement of my family and friends." This one though he showed to his friend John Fischer, editor of Harpers, and I suppose if you have in mind selling pieces- to Harper's there are very few handier people to know. Anyway, to get back to the story, Acheson's angler is found standing on a jetty at the edge of an Italian lake noted mora for its sunshine and somnolence than for its catches. He latches onto what could be an old auto tire but proves to be a fish of some several pounds. Naturally, landing a tisn is something he isn't pre pared for. He finally aUempts this feat with an upended um brella. This fails to work, leaving both Acheson and me, .' thought, with out very much of a kicker. SHORT RIBS By Frank O'Neal ISOK AT THE f Cv"f LITTLE ) ws lilt v.ean ) 11 AMKiNi WCU ClVllUeP i Chile Keonniv By PHIL NEWSOM UPI Foreign Editor The Chilean government is put ting the finishing touches on I plan which it hopes will help to revitalize Chile s stagnant econ omy. The plan, heretofore unpub lished, involves construction of 45,000 new homes each year. Banks will be asked to provide loans for the project. Chile's con struction industry has been semi paralyzed for the last four years, On Chile's political front, ob servers see the possibility of a split between Socialists and Com munists now joined in a "popular action front. The Socialists op pose the Moscow-organized peace conferences and voted to prohibit members in Congress from at tending any of them. Infuriated Communists now threaten to sab otage Socialist hopes for creation of a Latin American common market. The French Parliament is chaf ing under the rules of the 5th Re public's new constitution and for more than a month has been wag ing a bitter behind-the-scenes bat tle to win greater powers. De Gaulle appointed Premier Mi chael Debre ruled flatly against assembly demands for permission to vote on government policies, arguing that such votes merely would re-establish past "harass- ments of the cabinet by politi cal groups. Resulting bitterness may be long in fading away, Many groups complain the new regime wants the assembly to be a figurehead body only. The 100-year-old dream of a tunnel under the English Channel linking Britain and France is the closest to reality it ever has been. With money from the old Suez Canal Company now being pumped into the project, there are forecasts the tunnel may be ready in another six years. Pres ident Charles de Gaulle of France has taken an active interest in the idea and so have British lead ers. From an engineering stand point, the tunnel is practical. Those most acti-ly opposed are Britons who fear the tunnel would end Britain's traditional and his toric aloofness from the continent. Asian observers expect no open military attempt by Communist China to aid the hard-pressed Communist Pathet Lao forces in the tiny Southeast Asia nation of Laos. The Peiping regime is still wincing from adverse reaction over most of Asia to its suppres sion of the Tibetan revolt. Red China will, however, continue its propaganda campaign, accusing the United States of setting up a "base of aggression" in Laos. A battle royal already has started between two groups over source of funds to finance the 1964 Olympic games in Tokyo. One group wants to accept dona tions from professional Japanese sports, the other group is opposed to it. It was pointed out that Ja pan's large delegation to the Mel bourne games in MM was fi nanced partly by 8225.000 received from professional cycling, sumo and horse racing associations. After the smoke clesrt, the tame arrangement it expected again. iioio United Press International WASHINGTON - Senate Dem ocratic Leader Lyndon B.
