Federal Civil Defense Administrator
General Hoyt Vandenberg, Chief of Staff of the
United States Air Force, has made a startling state
ment — one which most Americans find hard to
believe. He had said that at best we could knock
down only 30 out of every 100 enemy planes attacking the
United States. That means that at least 7 out of 10 would
get through. Despite our traditional attitude that “it can’t
happen here,” we must believe these facts.
'l‘"hris does not mean that our Air
Force is ineffective. We have an
excellent air force and our anti
aireraft defenses are good. In the
last war, the Germans also were
well equipped with defense weap
ons, but they were not able to
stop our attacking bombers. On
the average, we lost fewer than 10
out of each 100 planes. That gives
us something to think about!
We know that everything pos
sible will be done to stop the
enemy at our borders, and to
* prevent sabotage within, but we
also can be sure that, in case of
war, a good percentage of enemy ‘
attacks would be successful in
spite of all that we could do. |
That is why we must have Civil
Defense.
The wide oceans which once pro
tected us have given way to global
bombers. Today we face more kinds
of attack than ever before, and our
danger is much greater.
There is only one sure way to
keep any enemy from knocking us
out of » war. We must know how
to save lives and property, restore
our cities and industries, and carry
on the fight no matter what kind
of attscks are hurled against us.
Russia Has Bombers
Russia has hundreds of heavy,
long-range bombers patterned after
our B-29s which could get through
most of our defense setups. We
know that Russia has atomic bombs
and that their heavy long-range
bombers are capable of delivering
them anywhere in the United
States st any time the Kremlin
dictates.

The resolution was passed by
the Senate last year but failed in
the House. It was called up this
session for reconsideration.
Offered in the Senate was a bill
designed to counter an attempt by
the Georgia Farm Bureau Feder

sanitation board created. Senator
Ernest Hayes of Vienna introduced
the bill, which would create a
livestock advisory board to assist
the Commissioner of Agriculture
in regulating the livestock indus

of four livestock men, four exten

sioner of Agriculture, “who after
all is a constitutional officer,” and
provide him with expert assist

Hayes also offered bills to elim

Clubs To Open
Georgia Camps
- Farm hands of the baseball var

pected to start their spring drills
in South Georgia during the se
cond week in March.
The Major League St. Louis
teams, the Browns and Cardinals,
have announced that their farm
clubs will train in Thomasville and
Albany. Jimmy McLaughlin, farm
director of the Browns, said all
the farm clubs except San Antonio
will limber up at Thomasville.
Some 250 players are to report for
practice from March 10 through
April 25. Five playing fields, in
cluding the new stadium, will be
available.
Albany is expecting about 400
Cardinal farm players to begin
working out there March 17.
Columbus of the South Atlantic
League, and Albany of the Geor
gia-Florida circuit, are on the list
of eleven clubs invading the city.

U. N. Delegates, on the other
hand, argued that the Reds are
seeking to build up their armies
by demanding the return of all
prisoners with giving them a free
choice.
Nuckols Assertion
Brig. Gen. William P. Nuckols,
official U. N. Svokesman, said the
Red ali-for-all exchange plan
would give the Communists a net
gain of more than 150,000 “effec
tive fighting men.”
The official U. N. communiaue
said such an exchange would give
the Reds a “significant increase in
their military forces unless these
men are paroled not to engage fur
ther in the Korea conflict.”
Nuckols said there was not men
tion by either side of the Allied
offered to drop its demand for a
man-for-man exchange of prison
ers for displaced civilians in north
Korea—if the Reds agree to let
all civilians return home if they
wish,
Rear Adm. R. Libby asked the
Communists for an accounting of
how many South Koreans they
exnect to return.
North Korea Maj. Gen. Lee
sang CHO replied warily “Civi
lians came north to avoid the ha
voc of war and now reside all
over North Korea freelv. If there
are civilians who want to go back
home, we will unconditionally re
patriate them and assist them.”
Lee did not make clear, how
ever, whether the Reds would ad
mit that any civilians want to
leave Communist Korea.
i Short Meet L
The subcommitiee debating
truce supervision terms met for
only 10 minutes. Allied negotiators
pressed for a ban on airfield con
struction during an armistice and
the Reds insisted they would re
ject such a proposal forever.
Both subcommittces agreed to
meet again at 11 a. m. Tuesday (9
p. m. EST Monday) in Panmun
jom.
Two representatives of the in
ternational Red Cross made an
other trip to Panmunjom Monday
and were received courteously by
the Reds, in sharp contrast to the
cold reception the two Swiss neu
trals got last week.
Lee handed the pair a letter
addressed to President Paul Rueg
ger of the International Red
Cross. Its contents were not dis
closed, but presumbably it was a
reply to a letter addressed to Com
munist military chiefs the Swiss
gave Lee Thursday.
The two Red Cross representa
tives have been trying to obtain
permission to work in North Ko
rean prison camps.

House Sub-Commitiee Reports
On University Inspection Tour
A recent sub-committee investi
gation of the facilities and funds
available to the University of
Georgia resulted in a number of
recommendations being made to
the House of Representatives of
the Georgia Legislature. The sub
commitive reporting its findings
to the House was composed of
Grady Pittard, jr., Winterville;
Lloyd L. Stewart, Hollywood; and
Ben T. Wiggins, Toccoa. The sub
committee had been asked to in
spect facilities of the University
of Florida, University of Alabama,
and Louisiana State University
and elected to inspect the Uni
versity of Georgia system at its
own expense and time.
The Committee in its report ex
pressed its appreciation to the ad
ministrative staff of the Univer
sity for the cooperation that it
had received while visiting the
institution. Noting that two new
dormitories and a new library
were under construction and that
a shortage of structual steel was
hampering activities for the com
pletion of these buildings, the
committee recommended that the
House take steps to complete con
struction at the earliest possible
date.
The committee report stated
that several new dormitories have
been completed in recent months
but reported also that some of the
dormitories in use at the present
are considered unsafe for occu
pancy due to the Fire Safety laws
of the State,
Upon the completion of dormi
tories now under consiruction, the
committee reported, there will be
a total of 3225 beds for students,
if all buildings available are used.
The committee, however, recom
mended that 320 beds for girls
now be discontinued due to the
condition of the dormitories.
The beds which the committee
recommended to be discontinued
are at Lucy Cobb and Coordinate
Campus. The committee recom
mended that the use of Coordinate
Campus dormitories for the Uni
versity system be discontinued be
cause of their distance from the
Main Campus and because of the
bad conditions which presently
exist in some of the buildings.
Coordinate Campus Inconvenient
It was stated in the report that
the committee had learned in con
versations with Georgia girls that
many of them preferred to attend
other State schools because of the
inconvenience of living on Co
ordinate and because of the ex
pense that they had to bear for
transportation to and from their
living quarters of Coordinate, The
committee also emphasized the
hardship on the administration in
offering classes on Coordinate and
stated that there were often du
plications in courses being offered
on both campuses.
The committee raported that
none of the dormitories on Co
ordinate Campus are in condition
to meet the requirements of the
Fire Safety laws now existing in
Georgia.
In conclusion to the question of
housing on Coordinate the report
stated, “Your committee therefore
recommends that, upon completion
of the new girl's dorimtory, that
no students be housed. in dormi
tories «on the Coordinate Cammpus
and that no classes for University
students be taught there. Inas
much as maintenance of these
buildings and classes are presently
a deficit operation, this will ef
fect a saving for the state”
It was revorted that there are
at the nresent time 80 students be
ing lodeed in Lucy Cobb and that
building is also not uvp %o require
ments of the State Fire Laws and
incapable of being reconditioned
to meet them., The committee rec
ommended that the leass on Lurey
Cobb be terminated as soon as the
new girl's dormitory is ready for
occupancy.
From findings at the out of state
colleges and universities that were
studied prior to the study of the
Georgia institution, the committee
learned that tuition was not being
charged at some oif the state sup
ported schools. The committea
stated that the average student at
the, University pays «bout a third
of the actual operating cost of his
education in addition to room and
board. -
Tuition Studied
On the question of tuition for
college students the committee re
port stated, “Realizing that a com
plete elimination of tuition at the
University of Georgia may cause a
flood of students whe are not edu
cationally eor otherwise eauipped
to continue their education beyond
the high school level, your com
mittee recommends that a study
be made by the Board of Regents
and a recommendation bhe mare to
this House regarding appropria-
tions necessary to discontinue tui
tion for whatever percentile of
high school graduates found de
serving of free tuition in units of
the University system.”
The above recommendation of
study into the matter was sug
gested for the 1953 session of the
Legislature.
Possible Use Of Coordinate
Campus
The committee, having recom
mended that the dormitories and
other buildings on Coordinate
Campus be no longer used after
completion of the new dormitories
are complete, felt that suggestions
for the use of the facilities on that
campus should be made. -
From their study of the work
ings and facilities of the Louisiana
State University, the committee
learned that a separate campus is
maintained for wuse in short
courses. The committee suggested
that inasmuch as the University
of Georgia holds numerous such
courses that the Coordinate Cam
pus might be used for such a pur
pose after repairs and recondi
tioning have been accomplished.
A second possible use for the
buildings on that campus was for
living quarters for married stu
dents, both veteran and non-vet
eran. It was pointed out in the
report that no suitable quarters
are provided for married students
at the present time.
A third possible use was for the
Demonstration Sehool which is
presently located on the campus.
The possibility of selling the build
irgs to the House Authority for
use as a white housing project
was also suggested. The lands,
totaling 35 acres, and the build
ings might, the committee pointec
out, be deeded to some other de
| partment of the state for use al
| though care should be taken to
maintain the real estate values of
the neighborhood.
Other possibilities for using the
Coordinate Campus included: pri-
Ivate school, student center, and
i University guest area for speakers
and other celebrities on the cam
pus.
Buildings In Bad Shape
A number of buildings on the
University premises which the
committee inspected and found in
need of extensive repairs of
strengthening included: Academic
Biilding, Terrell Hail, Candler
Hall (Boy's Dorm), Library, Con
ner Hall, Plant Pathology, Harde~
man Hall, Peabody Hall, Camp
Wilkins (barracks type boys dorm
| itory on Ag Hill), Denmark Hall,
Poultry Science Building, Wood
ruff Hall (indoor athletic and as
sembly building which seats about
one fourth of the student body),
Military Building (built for R. O.
T, C. students at a time when en
rollment was about a quarter of
the present enrollment), Food pro
cessing buildings, Barrow Hall,
and all buildings on Coordinate
| Campus.
‘ In continuing the committee
! stated that while many additions
were needed for other buildings
[ that it was the opinion of the com
| mittee that the above stated de
partments should be housed in
[ enirelv new buildings.
| Some of the criticisms of the
‘ buildings mentioned included the
{ fact that they are far from the
| center of the campus, many are
| makeshift, the designs are anti
{ auated, and that manv are incon
! venient from functional view
points.
i Experiment Station
{. The -committee further recom
| mended that funds be provicfid to
| add to and strengthen the Ex
| periment Station at tha College of
! Agriculture. The report stated
| that there are 3.000 acres of land
on or near the Ag Camnus which
| can be put to a more efficient use
{ if funds are provided. A part time
. payment of school expenses was
|also ‘advoecated in which students
would atiend classes part of ihe
| time and attend classes for the
| rest of the time.
{ Another recommendation of the
| committee on the Asricultural
{ Camous was the erection of an
| Ag Center at some future date.
| This center would be used for
istate-wide’ school activities and
i could also possibly. house the R.
fO. T. C. armory.
+ The Education School was also
{ mentioned as being in dire need
iof ‘additional facilities with the
| school’s Demonstration School lo
| cated nearer to the classrooms of
Hhe Education Department.

School of Veterinary Medicine is
one of the best in the entire world.

Annual Convivium Of Kappa Alpha
Frafernify Held Saturday Night
Members and alumni of the
Gamma Chapter of Kappa Alpha
fraternity attended the annual
convivum Saturday night id the
Georgian Hotel, which is held on
the anniversity of the KA’s spiri
tual father, Robert E. Lee.
Brother Cook Barwick, promi
nent Atlanta attorney, addressed
the gathering on what General
Lee,. in the speaker’s opinion,
would think of the present world
conditions if he were living today.
Uly Gunn, alumni advisor of the
local chapter, served as toastmas
ter. Senator R. G. Stephens intro
duced the speaker and Buddy Mil
ner introduced the other alumni.
Dr. Merritt B. Pound pronounced
the invocation.
Wash Larsen, president of the
Gamma Chapter, gave a report of
the activities and accomplishments
of the chapter during the past
the report stated.
The committee opined that
many other departments and
schools of the University could
also be among the best in the
world if adequate facilities and
space were provided.
The facts of the sub-committee
report were called to the atten
tion of each individual member of
the Legislature and it was sug
gested in the final lines of the re
port itself that the report be per
petuated to the General Assem
bly of 1953 for “such action, in
completion of the recommenda
tions of this report, it may see fit
to take”,

every man, woman and child in
the nation. The projected national
debt would be $1,768 per capita.
Huge expected deficits would con
trast with a $3,510,000,000 surplus
last year.
Asks Less
Despite the increase in spending,
Mr. Truman proposed only $84,-
260,000,000 in the appropriations
from Congress for the next fiscal
year, ten billion less than he ask
ed for the current year.
It’s the first time in years that
new appropriation requests —the
only figures that go to Congress
for approval-——have been less than
spending.
This is possible, the President
explained, because of a huge un
spent backlog of past allocations.
Over the past three years, appro
priations exceeded actual spending
by about 70 billion dollars.
Of the new appropriations, only
$43,577,000,000 would be spent
next fiscal year and the remaining
$40,683,000,000 would be -carried
over to future years.
Unspent appropriations usually
represent hard goods — tanks, air
plapes, ete. — which will not be
_delivered aand paid for until sev
eral years after the money is allo
cated.
A reduction in new appropria
tions this year is a sign officials
foresee a reduction in spending
several years hence. Mr. Truman
said he hoped spending could be
cut in the last half of 1954, “if
new international tensions do not
develop,” but outlays will remain
at a peak until then.
An outery over the size of the
budget is to be expected from
Congress, more so than usual be
cause it is an election year. The
record shows, however, that
spending actually exceeded Mr.
Truman’s original estimates in
three out of the past five years.
“The job of building the
strength we need to safeguard the
security of the nation is enor
mously expensive,” Mr. Truman
told Congress.
“Despite its size, this is not a
budget for all-out mobilization. It
is a budget carefully planned to
carry us a long way forward on
the road to security — at a pace
which is not only within our pres
ent economic capacity, but which
will enable us to grow stronger in
the years to comre.
Heavy Price
“In terms of sacrifices which
this involves, it is a heavy price,
but when freedom is at stake, it is
a price which all of us will gladly
pay.”
The President’s military pro
gram raised the goal for armed
manpower from 3,600,000 this
June to 3,700,000 in June, 1953.
The Air Force objective would be
raised to 143 wings from the
present 90.
Both the Army and the Marines
would get a new division—giving
the Army 21 and the Marines

NEW DEVICE
Heat Drawn From
Freezing Water
BIRMINGHAM, Ala., Jan. 19—
(AP) — It was a frosty morning
down in Dixie. Ice coated a pond
near a Griffin, Ga., radio station.
But the station was being warmed
by heat drawn from the nearly
freezing water.
The device performing this feat
of seeming magic was an electri
cally powered heat pump, which
operates on the same principle as
an electric refrigerator.
The heat pump can warm a
building in winter and keep it
cool in summer, and the Southern
Research Institute here thinks it
is especially adapted to Dixie’s
mild climate,
Radio Station WKEU at Griffin
was one of more than 100 largely
satisfied owners in an area ex
tending from Virginia to Mississip
pi interviewed by researchers.
Steady Demand
The Southeastern Electric Ex
change and Southern Services,
Inc., sponsored the survey be
cause the heat pump, operating the
year around, creates a steady de
mand for electric power.
In the wintertime the heat pump
draws warmth from the out-of
doors, either from the air, ground
or water. Wells or spring water
are the principally used sources
in the Southeast.
Water or some other liquid —
frequently a common anti-freeze—
‘circulates in pipes laid in the
ground or sunk in the wells, pick
ing up the natural heat. Then the
liquid is passed over the coils of
the heat pump.
i Here a liquid refrigerant eircu
lating through the heat pump goes
into action. ‘lt passes through an
evaporating stage during which it
absorbs the natural warmth. Then
the refrigerant is condensed, and
gives off heat into the building.
~ The heat pump can take warmth
from air, ground or water with an
out-of-doors temperature below
freezing and pass it into inside air
at a temperature of around 100
degrees.
Only the adjustment of a valve
is required to reverse the process,
when it's time for the heat pump
to begin its summer-time job of
cooling a building. ‘
- The pump now is manufactured
commercially by at least five
firms, and several others are pro
ducing experimental models. |
Installation Costs |
The Southern Research Insti
tute survey found that installation”
costs of the heat pump ran from
$3,265 for a three horsepower to
$6,438 for a 10 horsepower unit,
A five horsepower unit costing
$4,079 controls the temperature of
a well-insulated 7 to 8-room
house. Office buildings are heat
ed and cooled by larger units.
Annual heating costs for the
five-horsepower size were esti
mated at from $177 in Virginia to
$53 in Folrida. During the cooling
cycle the cost ran from sll9 in
Virginia to $lB4 in Florida.
The installation cost of the heat
-pump is high, but the fact that one
machine both heats and cools a
house represents an immediate
saving.
