PHONE NUMBER 5-2109 5-2100 Nuclear News Flying saucers have not figured in the news for several weeks, but nuclear weapons are making tevery edition. It news of current nuclear tests in the Pacific must be thus qualified because no reporters were permitted near the scene that a big bomb of some sort was touched off in the Marshall Islands on or about March 1, the results of which were more or less earth shattering. Japanese fishermen in a boat miles away were burned severely by atomic rays and are now hospitalized. That is, most news stories described the boat as having been 80 miles off when the bomb was triggered, but one newspaper listed a vessel 800 miles distant as having been scorched. This, presumably, was the same vessel, and the figure was a typographical error.
Perhaps it was this story which Senator Wiley of Wisconsin read before he got up to make a speech in the Senate demanding that the populace be warned immediately that a few of latest type bombs could render the human race hors de combat. He was soothed with difficulty by other members. Also again it seems that there will be another and greater explosion in approximately a month, in which Uncle Sam will really set off a sockdollager. This one, according to the grapevine, will rock and scorch a much wider area. If the government had set out to create widespread fear of these new weapons, it could not have selected a more effective manner of doing it than by closing atomic tests to newsmen.
Rumors are much more potent as fear spreaders than news. Whether Russian spies have succeeded in stealing the secrets of these new weapons will not be known until later, of course. But if they it probably is not because they try. DAILY CROSSWORD ACROSS 4. Greek letter 1.

This is the usual procedure: the witness, at a table, faces the committee members sitting behind a long, raised desk. They shoot questions at him. He answers or refuses to answer.
If he refuses, he must have a good example, that his answer might incriminate he faces jail for contempt of Congress. The witness may be permitted to ask the committee members a couple of questions. This is neither a cross-examination of them nor of some other witness who has said damaging things about him. Now McCarthy is in the position of having to appear before his own subcommittee to answer its ques- tions about his fight with the Army. And McCarthy insists he must be allowed to cross-examine witnesses against him.
It final that be permitted to do it. That will be decided when his subcommittee lays down its rules for the probe. If McCarthy is refused cross- examining rights, he may appeal to the full Senate. McCarthy, chairman of the subcommittee, already has stepped aside for this investigation, letting Sen. Mundt (R-SI)) act as chairman.
And McCarthy has said he vote. This voting may be important since all the witnesses will appear under oath and if the committee decides anyone is lying it can recommend the Justice Department take over the ease for prosecution. Since McCarthy is still a member of the subcommittee, he would have the right to sit behind the long desk with the other members when the hearing starts. If they decide he cross- do all the might just as well sit out in the audienee until his time to testify came. But if he is allowed to quiz the Army people testifying against him, there is no predicting either the outcome of the hearing or the direction it will take.
a tough, relentless questioner and could, if he wished, drag in side issues. He says Army people should be allowed to question him too. The four principals in the ease are McCarthy and Cohn on one side and the Army, represented by its secretary, Robert T. Stevens, and its assistant legal counsel, John (j. Adams, on the other.
By RAY TICKER WASHINGTON Amer i a aviation authorities are seeking an increase in the maximum amount of money for which international airline companies are liable in the event of death or accident to passengers and damage to freight shipments. Simultaneously, there are congressional demands for a uniform federal liability law, for about half the states have fixed pitiably low limits on victims of disaster within their boundaries. In the current reopening of the Warsaw Convention, which governs in these matters, the ivil Aeronautics Board wants the ceiling for recoverable damages in overseas flying lifted from the present $8,300 to $13,500. An American attempt to boost it to $25,000 was defeated last year by the International Aviation Commission with jurisdiction in this field. Although the terms or even the existence of the Warsaw Convention are not generally understood or even known, several developments have aroused current interest in the problem at ington.
POINT The most dramatic incident was the near-tragic experience of Jane Froman, the popular television star. On her way to entertain troops late in the war, she was crippled badly in the landing of a Pun American plane at Listxin. She returned to television only recently, hut still needs braces. Although her medical treatment, a series of operations and loss of earnings amounted to several hundred thousands of dollars. she was able to collect only $8,300.
There would have been no limit to the sum if she could have proved negligence so palpable that it might termed willful or criminal. The Warsaw Convention provides such a loophole. but it is virtually impossible to make such a charge stick. The other tragic accident highlighting this hazard occurred on the outskirts of Washington. Several years ago.
a Bolivian army pilot crashed into an Eastern Air lanes plane over the Potomac River, killing more than a score of The legal aftermath of this disaster developed an amazing situation of which only a few air passengers have ever heard. I IM. More than 20 states have laws a ceiling on the amount for which passengers or shippers may sue in the event of an accident. The limitations range from $5,000 to $20,000. In the Eastern Air Lines tragedy.
smce it occurred over the Potomac River, the legal question was whether the accident took place Virginia or in District of Columbia. maximum for damage suits is $15,000, whereas there is no limit in the District. A federal court here held that the crackup occ urred in the trict. But Eastern Air Lines has appealed to the Supreme Court, and the claims are still unsatisfied se veral year- after the event. It is expected that the aviation lobby, a formidable interest if they ever agree on any piece of legislation, will fight pro- fv'sals for a federal maximum of $50,000.
third factor lie- hind current concern over the problem foreign and domestic liability totals the tremendous increase in air travel. With so many Americans going over- by plane, and with $8,300 representing a relatively small sum in the United States, there is definite need for an upward revision. Moreover, if the present congressional campaign for rewrit- i the basic Civil Act succeeds, breaking up opolistlc practices and ticup.s and establishing lower rates based on ss swanky short, cutting out expensive trimmings in the same way that Henry Ford did with the the ceiling for both home and foreign living will be raised through pre -tire from Congress, the CAA and the State Department. with the crackdown on several major airlines, this demand for gre ater passenger pro- etiori emphasizes a hanging Washington attitude toward commercial aviation. Partly because of the glamor of flying, and partly Iwcause of need to foster and advance it in the early stages, the lines have bc'c pampered with eial le idatum, favorable regulations and subsidies.
They have I ch heaped with largesse detrimental to every other form of transportation. Now there is an insistence that they stand on their own feet. Hal Boyle Says It's Tough To Be Teen-Age Dad By IIAL BOYLE NEW YORK If there is anything more puzzling than being a teen-ager, it is the problem of being a father. You even solve this one by mail.

He is president of Youth Research Institute. The organization makes business surveys for firms selling youth products. Jt has a staff of 1,800 youngsters scattered over the nation who trudge about asking other youngsters such questions as, "Junior, what are your buying habits?

"Anyone over 21 looks ancient to a teenager. Many fathers of teenagers, of course, Ip looking older than they actually are, but they ought to keep a young attitude. "Instead of acting shocked at the things your teen-age hoy or girl may do, just play along as if you thought it were normal. In that way acceptable. You are one of the crowd.

Teenagers Here are a few tips by Rand on how to rejuvenate your outlook: "Forget about Charlie Chaplin or Mary Bickford, or at least speak about them in the presence of the young and hopeful.

"if some body mentions Shirley Temple, say too young to remember her. talk about how things to Those comparsons are sudden death.
"Know the latest dances. Forget about the waltz. even say the word out loud. "Keep up on teen-age fads and approve of theffl heartily, no matter how ridiculous they seem. "Dick up a few teen-age pre sions such as This tears me (I really like it), an (read), (really great), or (sissy).
