Thursday, Jims 17, 1754 Local Radio Hams Will Join In National Annual Field Day Beginning at 4 p. m. Saturday the Key West Radio Amateur Club, W4LLO, will gain take part k the Annual Field Day event as spon sored by the American Radio Re* lay League. The Field Day event will be held at the East Martello Towers, of which the Key West Historial Soc iety so generously gave the club permission to use. This site is the same as used last year and wps found to be ideal for the event. What is Field Day? It is a day when over 100,000 radio amateurs throughout the nation give serious thought of preparing themselves to render public service in times of emergencies. It is a test of using radio equipment in the field, using only emergency power. The annual Day event will last for a period of 24 hours of continuous radio operating. Ama teur radio operators are proud of their hobby in that it is a means of gaining personal skill n the fas cinating art of electronics and an opportunity to communicate with fellow citizens by private short wave radio. The Army and Navy seek the cooperation of the amateur in de veloping communication reserves. Amateur radio supports a manu facturing industry which, by the very demands of amateurs for the latest and best equipment, is al ways up-to-date in its designs and production techniques in itself a national asset. Amateurs have won the gratitude of the nation for their heroic performances in times of natural disaster. It is for this type of work that the annual Field Day is held as a training course. Regular visitors of Key West's East Martello Towers will be also welcome to watch their local radio amateurs in action. Members of the Key West Radio Amateur Club will be on hand to answer aU ques tions about amateur radio in gen eral. All local radio amateurs rt welcome to participate. Students estimate there are as many as 30 million overweight Am ericans.

The gadget is a tiny earphone similar to the simultaneous trans lation system used by delegates and visitors at U.N. meetings. Un like the U.N. sets, however, the re ceiver is held to the ear (no head set to muss madgme’s coiffure), and only one language - English is offered. The translation comes from a recording whose speed is regulated a* the play progresses. Exper imentally, 20 of the sets have been installed in the 000-teat Comedie des Champs Elysees, now playing * revival of Marcel Ayme’s popu lar comedy "Clerambard." Bilingual theatergoers say the translation k good, and funny, but the volume can’t be regulated and the record doesn’t always keep pace with the action. Johnston Reports Jordan Progress .

Page 7 WASHINGTON (E-It’s hard to cause astonishment with new mis givings shout Communist infiltra tion of the government. This city has become a breeding ground far doubt and suspicion. But it happens. It happened twice within a few days and in both cases, one real and one imagi nary, the misgivings involved the Atomic Energy Commission, which directs (be nation’s whole atomic program. Early lilt week a special board of inquiry, found that Dr. J. Rob ert Oppeohebner, one of the world’s great theoretical physi cists, was loyal, highly discreet, s great keeper of secrets but— the boe*d decided 2-1 Oppen heimer no longer should be en trusted with secret information by the AEC. Oppeuheimer directed this country’s development of the A-homb dining the war and haa boon a oeneuKant to the AEC ever since. The fall five-man AEC has decided to review the board’s ruling. A few days later Rep. W. Ster ling Cole (R-NY) raised a night mfrifh question about the AEC, whose members art picked by the President himself. This was it: suppose someday one or more of the five commis sioners should turn out to be a se curity risk and not entitled to all the atomic information given the other commissioners. Cole is chairman of tfa# Senate- House Committee on Atomic En ergy, which acts as watchdog on the A?C. The committee k considering an administration bill to make aomt changes k the basic Atomic En ergy Act pissed in IM6. All five members of the AEC have testi fied. Oof of them, Thomas S. Mur ray, said ha would like the law, if it is amended, to say dearly that "all members of the commission shall have equal authority and re sponsibility ... and full access to all information.” Murray, together with Henry D. Smyth and Eugene M. Zuckert, had been appointed to the com mission by former President Tru man. President Eisenhower has appointed the other two: Adm. Campbell. The three Truman appointees The World Today By Jrnts Marlow voiced fear that some of the lan guage in the bill-saying the chair man, in this case Strauss, should be the “principal officer’’—would make Strauss a czar and cut the other members out of some vital decisions. Murray expressed opposition to this ides and complained that Strauss had taken a number of ac tions without consulting the other members. At this point Cole stepped in to say he was willing for the law to say all the members of the com mission should have equal respon sibility and authority, as Murray suggested. But he added: ‘‘l am not quite so willing to ac cept the latter part of it (Murray’s suggestion that all five members have equal access to hrfor maiion). Why shouldn’t all fiv commis sioners, if they’re going to run the atomic energy program, have full knowledge of what’s being planned and done? Cole said because it would "render helpless a commission which at some time in the future by majority vote might determine’* that one or two of the five com missioners should not have certain information. At this point Rep. Chet HWifield (D-Calif) said he was "astound ed." He asked Cole if he meant to suggest that someday some in dividual member of the AEC itself might be considered loyal and dis creet but a security risk. Cole said he had something Hke that in mind. So, instead of having the law say all members * must have all information on toe atomic program, he said a majority of the board should decide who among them was entitled to have it. If he had carried his thinking one step further it would have come to this: maybe someday a majority of the five-man AEC might be security risks for, if one or two could be risks, then three or four or all five might be.
