' "It's really awful," Airs. Gran ahan said with a laugh. "I can tell other people about their money, but I have trouble with my own checkbook. Usually I end up getting someone else to bal ance it for me." Mrs. Granahan, a native of. Easton, Pa., has been treasurer since last January. She says It is ' "a prestige Job with lots of work ' ; Involved." '; ' . "The demands on my time are , tremendous," she said. "I'm booked up with speaking engage j :ments and conventions until 1964."

She blamed the organization of longtime Philadelphia political boss William Green for her loss. But she discussed it without ran cor.

But ho probably would consider them the least of his problems anyway. BEM is science fiction writer s shorthand for bug-eyed monsters, who used to inhabit the red plan et back in the tranquil days be fore fiction' started turning into fact. Fantasy is becoming possibility so rapidly, in fact, that a group of scientists, engineers and govern ment officials, led by Air Force Secretary Eugene M. Zuckert. will meet here June 6-7 to discuss a subject the science-fiction writ ers used to consider their pri vate domain the exploration of Mars. Dr. George Morgenthaler of Denver, the symposium's gener al program chairman, says t h c fantastically costly feat could be achieved as early as the mid dle 1970s. One of the features of the sym posium's closing sessions will be an attempt by participants to set this date as closely as possible. The symposium on the explora tion of iMars is to be presented by the American Astronautical Society and co-sponsored by the Rare Papers Given Use By Microfilm NEW YORK (UPI1 A space age application of photography called microfilm is making it pos sible for libraries everywhere to acquire literary and historical treasures formerly available only! to a few fortunate scholars and historians. Some of the world's greatest- collections ot human wisdom such as those in the Vatican Library, tile Library of Congress, the the British Museum and the Am brosian Library in Milan have' been microfilmed and placed in libraries in the United States and throughout the world. In the United States, the Adams Papers, phenomenal family arc hive of early American history. recently were made available to scholars through microfilm. Ac cording to a study by tlie Rek ordak Corp., microfilm subsidiary of Eastman Kodak, the Adams Papers, in 606 reels, amounting to more than five miles of film. already have been placed in 40 or more Institutions, including the Baker Library at Dartmouth Col lege. An indication of the insight into Revolutionary War and Post- Revolution history provided by these microfilms is the diary of John Qumcy Adams, which ex tends over 70 years and for 50 years without a single day's omis sion.

Past Years Events Catholic-Communist VATICAN CITY IUPD - Events of tlie past year appear to have brought a great change in the battle between the Roman Catholic Church and the Commu nist world ruled from Moscow. Diplomatic talks have been go ing on for months that could lay tlie basis for a broad settlement of some of the major sore spots in tlie great conflict. But one thing needs to be im mediately understood. Tactics and commanders may have changed in recent years in this contest, hut on neither side have the weapons been sheathed. It was the late Josef Stalin who. as has so often been quot ed, allegedly remarked sneering- ly to Winston Churchill at Yalta. "How many divisions does the Pope have'.'"

The problems before them are staggering: A ixiund trip to Mars would cover about 70 million miles un der the best circumstances, and the planet is close enough to earth only once every 15 to 17 ycats to permit tins. It would take more than a year to accomplish such a jour ney, using currently envisioned chemical-powered rockets. It would cost a sum conserva Lawyer-Journalist Proposes Law Be Used To NEW YOHK (UPI) Physi- cists will recognize this as the formula for kinetic energy: hE equals 'a MV2 i kindle energy equals one-half the mass times the velocity squared'. In a daring approach lo his tory, lawyer-journalist Ernest Cu- neo suggests this law of motion mav be as applicable to the move ment of nations as it is to a placid puddle into which a stone is dropped. In other words, he proposes tlie scientific method may be appli cable to history and. if tlie proc esses of history can De identified, tliev can be measured. their respective forces can be analyzed: and once analyzed. measured. Wars, he reasons, may be as predictable as the results of com mon scientific experiments and when predicted, means may be devised to avoid them. Cuneo, in his new book "Science and History" (Durrell, Sloan and Pearcei contends the evolution of history polarization of powers, subsequent wars and recombina tion of nations or empires fol low the scientific laws governing motion and energy. Men in num bers I national populations and es pecially armies', when in mo tion, generate energy and a na tion or other grouping of men generating the most energy will prevail over a nation with less er energy. Motion Major Factor Tlie rate of motion, rather than numbers of men, is tlie major factor if the kinetic energy for mula is applicable to national power, Cuneo reasons. Thus, he observes, 10.000 Europeans gen erate far more energy than 10,. 000 Australian bushmcn. The bush man moves at a maximum run ning speed of 20 miles an hour while the European can propel himself at 600 miles an hour in a jet. The formula is applied in this way: Dame and will be housed in its new 13-story library. Notre Dame also announced it has obtained permission to micro film the entire manuscript collec tion of the famed Ambrosian li brary in Milan.

"The church of Christ," he said, "does not dream of abandoning the terrain to its declared enemy, atheistic communism, without a fight. This combat will be carried through to the end. but with the weapons of Christ." Times Have Changed Today both Pius and Stalin are gone and tlie chief protagonists in the Vatican-Kremlin battle are Pope John XXIII and Niktla Khrushchev.

Before the Mars spaceship could even start its trip, its parts would have to be rocketed sep arately into earth orbit and as sembled in space. This could re quire from 7 to 15 separate rocket launchings. When assembled, the Mars spaceship could weigh two mil lion pounds. Mars is the most "earthlike" of the planets. Its rotation on its axis is about halt an hour longer than an earth day. Its tempera Predict War, History Bushman: "i 10,000 x 20 squar ed equals 2 million arbitrary en- orgy units. European: '2 10.000 x 6O0 squar ed equals 1,800,000,000 arbitrary energy units. "The European's greater strength is based on the much greater rate of motion of his civilization." Cuneo argues. "Hence, the measure of history is more tlie relative rates of mo- IRNEST CUNEO . . . new approach tion of the various groups than the numbers of people. The rifle disposed of the knight, tlie can non disposed of the castle, the airplane disposed of tlie cavalry. because each represented a high cr rate of motion and therefore a greater force in being." The boundaries of nations and empires ebb and flow as the en crgy balance of the world changes in a process akin to the univer sal rebalancing of the sea. Cu neo said. Boundaries To Change In Cuneo's view, it is ridiculous to believe tlie world's national boundaries, as now .constituted, can remain intact or two polariz ed powers, such as the united States and the Soviet Union, can go on simply "co-existing." If we go on with that war is inevita ble. "Tlie edges of the two power blocs! are colliding now in Viet Nam. Laos.

Any such impres sion is mistaken. The approaches so far have re volved around three main points: Poland's desire to have consular relations with the Vatican. Hun gary's wish lo get Joszef Cardi nal Mindszenty out of the country, and Czechoslovakia's wish (or a settlement of such problems as that posed by Prague Archbishop Josef Reran, who has been in Communist confinement for the past 12 years. How and uhy all this started and how it has developed is partly a matter of speculation, partly a matter of clearly dc lined (act. Red Campaign Falls One conclusion thai can be drawn is that the Communist campaign to destroy religion in lire Communist countries has tailed, and the Red rulers have decided lo accommodate them selves to this unpleasant reality.

Every two years the earth conies between Mars and the sun. At such limes Mais may be from 34.6 million miles to 61 mil lion miles from earth. Mars will be less than 33 million miles away on Aug. 10, 1971, and will not be that close again until the 19K0.S. Cuneo said in an interview with United Press International. "It is like two freight cars loaded with dynamite now colliding gentle. Cuneo. a specialist in interna tional law and president of the .North American Newspaper Alli ance (NANA), finds the present arms race as absurd as the theo ry of co-existence and ultimately leading to the same result: war It is as impossible to freeze a balance-of-power arms race as it is to freeze two racehorses pounding down the home stretch neck and neck for the Grand Prix. "The reason is that balance as sumes permanent rest, permanent stabilization. This is a concept in applicable to living things. "Since the actual balancing of power is conscious, it accelerates tlie coming of war. For in such a situation, if one power be lieves it has enough force to win, it attacks. If, on the other hand, it perceives that in spite of its maximum effort its relative strength is declining, it must at tack or submit." History Evolutionary Process History, Cuneo believes, is an evolutionary process. "Sparta once fought Athens and now they are parts of a common country. Siena once fought Florence and now tney, too are in a common country. And Scotland England So in the end there will be 1 world union and one world gov. ernment. "The object is to accomplish this without evolution by means of war," Cuneo said. "It can be consciously arranged, but not un der the United Nations in its present form. "The U.N, disregards the en ergy map of the world.

The door opened and a man entered, his blue patrolman's uni form brushing past a sign he had tacked to the door two days be fore "Beware of dogs!" Two steel-gray, specially-trained German shepherds were the apartment's sole occupants. Their mission: To stop a wave of van dalismthe cutting of (ire hoses and the flooding of elevators in a middle-income housing develop ment on New York's Lower East Side. Tlie use of dogs by city police departments is not new. Since 1S58 when St. Louis first used them, they have helped catch thieves, control crowds and sniff out trouble throughout the United States. But private detectives, with few exceptions, have rcirained from using dogs.

He said tlie animals have the advantage of sight, hearing and smell over human beings. "Other detectives are interested in what I'm doing," he said. "But they're waiting. As a private agency, we have no police powers. We have to be careful in appre hending a person. We can make a citizen's arrest but if we were to make a mistake then we'd be in trouble."

But he won't let you get away." we have reached this girl and many others like her before the crisis? "How can we create a climate in which an understanding person would be available to her: Surely, in her time of fear and panic, there should be a person in whom she can confide and find support and guidance."

Miss Gallafher noted that some are environmental such as crowded housing, lack of everyday necessities, a dearth of opportunities to achieve, prej udicial attitudes, limited edu: cational facilities, parental con lusion and lack of guidance. Other problems include the emotional ones. Samples: concepts regarding self, values that may influence acceptance of responsi bility and social experience in volving opportunities for identifi cation. "Consideration of these multiple factors will take us into concepts and principles in philosophy, re ligion, education, the law, social work, anthropology, psychology." Miss Gallagher said.
