Bpt-there the agreement stopped.
Chairman Vandenberg (R-Mich)
of the Senate Foteign Relations
Committee said that if this country
does nojt now have the essentials of
nationajl armed security “we must
ptovidej them by the most available
immediate means.”
Vandenberg was said to view
with some favor the President's
request folr a limited military
draft. But he apparently is less
inclined toward Universal Mili
tary Training.
Senator Taft of Ohio, a GOP
(presidejntial candidate, indicated he
may fight the draft, as well as the
UMT proposal which he long haU
opposed. . ;
Chairman Andrews (R-NY) of
the House Armed Services Com
mitted said Congress could enact
H a draft bill' by July f if it wants
la do it. He said 860,000 men 20
, to 26 years old could be obtained
this way, exclusive of World War
II veteraijuiv
Meanwhil^ Chairman Leo Alien
(R-Illj) kept the House Rules Com
mitte’s lid [tightly closed agains
letting UMT legislation reach th<
floor. A training bill won approva)
of Andrews’ armed services com!
mitted last .year, but the rplej
Comhjittee has refused to . put ijt
on thje House calendar.
Barring a change of mind by
Allen’s committee, about the only'
way | to get the UMT bill befoijc
the House is through aj petition
signed by 218 members.
Southern Democrats who have
been warring with the President
over his Civil Rights program split
over the military proposals. Sena
tor Stewart of Tennessee | called
therii an opportunity for the Presjip
dent to withdraw his Civil Rights
|Program. : , ) j . ||:'

In thje final stage, Ashley con
tinued, :the vessel containing the
carljxjh dioxide is Sealed off and re
moved from the bath of liquid air,
Whereupon the caibon dioxide again
becomes a gas and exerts a pres
sure on an insiruraent called a
manomfter, similar to a barometer.
Frotn this pressure | it rs possible
to tell hpw muclji carbon was ori-
gipallyj: present in the metal alloy,
according to Ashley.
This; delicate test is a typical-
product of the ingenuity required
by the!; analytical chemist, he de
clared, ^noting that many educators
and stjtidents do not realize that
the analytical chemist is a re-,
search scientist i,n his own right.
“Every observant chemist knows
that analytical procedures are not
cutfand-dried formulas that can be
lifted from a book to produce an
inevitable result',” he said. “Skill*
judgment, and a broad and detail
ed! knowledge of chemistry and
physics are needed to guarantee
result? that will not be false and;
consequently, misleading. It is cer
tainly 1 not the jpb for the kind of
wheeMiorse oftejn recommended as
being a suitable candidate for the
analytical laboratory.”
Dr. Paul B. Pearson, chairman of
the A&M Section, presided at the

he use of artifically radioactive
dtopes as tracers in biological
xperimehts has increased greatly
pince 1946, according to Victor A.
Greulach, associate professor of
botany at A&M.
' Greulach points out that these
materials have now become readily
and cheaply available from the
atomic pile at Oak Ridge, Tennes-
pee. Formerly they were produced
jn cyclotrons at great expense.
Isotopes are special forms of or
dinary elements having slightly
different characteristics in the
atomic nucleUi, but which act chem
ically the same as the common
■form. |,j j J:
After being activated in the ato*-
mic pile, the isotopes are introduc
ed into the plant which is to be
studied and their course through
the organism can be traced because
!of their radioactivity.
Greulach emphasizes that the
importance of radioactive tracers
in biology I lies in the ease with
which they may be detected, usual
ly without destroying th0 tissue
involved. t j.
The most cornmlon methods of de
tection used in biological tracer
studies are those of radioauto-
graphs, in which the tissue is plac
ed in close contact with * photo
graphic plate, and of Geiger-Mul-
ler counters.
At present isotopes of carbon,
sodium, potassium and several oth
er elements are available from Oak
Ridge and are being used in plan^,
research. I j Tr | 4 Im
Isotopes are likely to! become
even more important in the future
when radioactive hydrogen becomes
more readily available.;Radioactive
water can then be made and many
more plant processes investigated.
A paper by Greulach bn radio
active isotopes was recently pub
lished by the Texas Agricultural
Experiment Station.

time the board said:
“We believe in a sound pro
gram of national defense, ade
quately financed and maintained.
“Wf believe that the time has
come 'when the national welfare
and the future peace and prosper
ity of the nation can oply be as
sured by a system of universal mili
tary training of ou? able-bodied
male citizeps in their early man
hood.
“We believe that a universal mil
itary training act should be passed
which will afford the minimum
possible disruption of normal edu
cational processes, and which
should include provision for due
allowance and credit for military
training in the ROTC.
“We believe in the! ptoservation
of balance and integrity between
the regular army and its civilian
components.”
