David Sarnoff, chairman of the 'Board of the Radio Cor- poration of America, anticipates the day when 'man will be able to communicate: with man any- where in the world by means of a small, pocket radio set that will both send and receive mes- sages, This person-to-person commun- ication will be possible "within the next 50 years," says the man who has followed the develop- ment of ccmmunications from the simple Morse telegraph key to satellites. Space satellites will "pave a road. in the ether" over which all people can "travel" in this new era of communications—an era in which General Sarnoff pre- dicts that "communication with other planets is sure to come." This projection into the future came during the course of an impromptu interview in the gen- eral's mid - Manhattan home where he and Mrs. Sarnoff were luncheon hosts to a Washington contingent of the Women's Na- tional. Press Club, As a Variety headline put it: "Women's, Press Club Orbits Thru Gen, Sarnotf's 28-Room. Town House." The "orbit" included a tour of the general's newly completed trophy room filled with menen- Los of his 55 years in communi- cations. These range from the Morse key with which he tapped out the startling news of the Titanic disaster in 1912, after picking up the ship's distress signal, to a new illuminated scroll recently signed by 32 members of the Senate and Vice-President Lyndon B. Johnson who honored him at a special luncheon on Capitol Hill, Adjoining the trophy room is his office where the walls bear inscribed portraits of Presidents Roosevelt, Truman, and Eisen- hower, a bronze plaque of Mar- coni, and the bookshelves are filled with autographed first edi- tions, including S i r Winston Churchill's series on World War General Sarnoff held this un- usual press conference on the sunny rooftop terrace \of his home, He looked back over the past and ahead into the future with the perepective of a man who, as he put it, "hitched his wagon to an electron.' When satellite communication comes, be says there should be a special United Nations channel in the system so that UN sessions can be broadcast and men every- where can see and hear what is going on. ' He foresees the coming of "instant newspapers," with lac - simile reproduction via satellites "delivering" a paper instantly all over the globe, writes Josephine Ripley in the Christian Science Monitor. The first high-level space satel- lite will be up and operating in two years, in his estimation, It awaits only the development of a rocket boaster with sufficient thrust, Low-level satellites now being developed at RCA laboratoties for the government will be ready for launching next summer. The march of natural science and the progress of technology is "nlovinp very fast" in the field of communications, with the 'United States way ahead of the Soviet Union, according to Gen- eral Sarnoff. He says history will record this MERRY MENAGERIE I elwaya figured WE might be the ?net, to hit the ,)tool!' I"'' Nowhere To Run To Escape Fallout A few days ago a group of Americans set out on a long jemmy, from Long Island, N.Y., to the ether end of the cOntina eat, seeking promise in a new land, much in the way that the old pioneers. trekked across the ple'ne . lime were some differences in this new migration, however, it ihvOlved about 30 people, many Of them artists who had he..n v.%-rlaing together in an art venter neer the middle • of Long isl: They were bound for Chico, Creif, feed atilt are as far as we knew). They were, net seek- ing gold or even land, but safety from atcmic fallout. „ They figured that Long Island was a very unsafe place, filled with airplane and other defense industry factories, and :fartoo close to New York City for coin- for. t. So a committee was formed: n investigated 'and. discovered name Washington sources 'that three' areas in the United States were considered to be extremely safe from fallout problems: northern California, southern Oregon, and an area in Montana. The committee recommended and the group chose Chico as their new • home. Bag and bag- gage they departed, selling tneir cumbersome possessions, to try , their luck in the unknown. Then, after the travelers had severed their ties, and had he- gun their trek, an enterprising reporter did a little checking on their decision. ,He discovered that the De-• fense Department is about to build a new missile base just out- side Chico, that a Strategic Air Command base is quite nearby. In other words, as the reporter noted, Chico, quite possibly, is a more likely target for destruc- tion than many other places, in case of all-out war, Any other candidates in migra- tion? — Denver Poet. Famous Volcano Due To Erupt Soon it was forecast by a seismol- ogist recently that one of the most active volcanoes in the world, Kilauea, might blow its top again in a major eruption to- wards the end of this year. The volcano — altitude 4,400 feet—is on the island of Hawaii, in the Pacific Ocean, and has a lake of fiery lava almost two miles wide. It is always smoking or flam- ing, sometimes overflowing into old tracks, but seldom dangerous. In 1340, in one of its worst eruptions, a river of fire five miles broad and 200ft. in depth, burst from it and poured down the mountainside. Two years ago, white-hot lava gushed like water from it and there was great damage to the town of Kepoho. About 150 mil- lion cubic yards of lava smother- ed more than 1,000 acres of valu- able land. In 1033 there was a sudden revival of volcano worship in Hawaii with its ritualistic sacri- fice of maidens in the crater. At least three girls, it was re- ported offered themselves as sacrifices to "appease" the vol- cano. Some time later American eye-witnesses saw two girls ac- tually sacrifice themselves to Pele, the goddess of the volcano. The two young girls, reeling with kava, a heady brew extract- ed from palm leaves, had lain on the edge of the crater and been covered with garlands before plunging into the burning cauld- ron of molten lava a thousand feet below.

If any gloss remains, rub it lightly with a fine sandpaper. sons, as nearly as I can recall in the order in which he gave them and roughly in his own words, were as follows: 1. Berlin is only a political, not a military, objective. 2. The Elbe is established by existing agreements as the fu- ture boundary between Western and Soviet zones of occupation. If I push my supply lines beyond the Elbe, I'll only have to pull them back later, and this will mean wasted effort and money. 3, The war is nearly over, so why waste soldiers' lives in tak- ing a political objective, 4. I have long worried about how we would meet the Rus- sians. The idea of meeting them around a corner in some city, both sides on the run; seems risky. I would rather meet them with a enice broad river across\ my front, 5. There are still some unde- feated German forces in Austria in the "redoubt." The emphasis was put on the proposition that Berlin was only a political objective: This view was repeated in General Eisen- hower's book "Crusade in Eur- ope." General Bradley, in his "Soldier's Story' confirmed it, adding that the American high command at the time w a s "naive" in its resistance to urg- ent British pleas for a maximum possible advance eastward. Churchill urged resumptiot of the eastward advance in strongest possible terms, and Marshal. Montgomery was „allowed to push along the Baltic coast, but General. Eisenhower turned the American advance southward toward the "redoubt." At the time of the decision to stand on the Elbe there were several SS divisions in an area in Austria which had been prepared to some extent for a "last stand.'' There was concern in headquarters about the "redoubt." But in the end nothing ever came of the "last stand," The "redoubt' sur- rendered in the general 8urrerie der, and the'Soviets took Berlin. The issue comes down; to Whether the military reasons for the etiirn away from Berlin, iecidentally also away from Prague, were in fact sound. They were indeed. military, and only military, Every political consid , oration called for the farthest possible advance eastward. Those reasons were brushed aside as being "political" and hence by inference unworthy. Certainly the loss of C2ech.- bslovakin to corninttnisM descends from the decisiele do give military reasons priority over political reasons. Probably the Western case in Berlin is weaker than it need have been from the same deciSibil. The record does raise question whether the State Department's rewrite of history is sound history. If the decision sprang front military reasons, one iiaust con- elude that the military reasons are grossly okoggerated.

PIPE FODDER — A harvest of smoke is a family job as Max Kincaid, foreground, helps his dad load his wagon with to- bacco leaves in their fields. If Ike Had Only Kept "Pushing East Following protests by Republi- cans, the U.S. State Department has rewritten its published ver- sion of why the armed forces of the Western alliance did not reach the city of Berlin in the final military phase of World War IL The original version read: "The Western armies could have captured Berlin, or at least joined in capturing it, , ." The revised version, after the protests, reads: "For sound military reasons the Western armies in the final phase of the war had not ad- vanced on Berlin, the occupation status of which had already been agreed, but had concentrated on the primary task of destroying the main German forces, . . ." Every great war seems to leave a controversy which is fought over by the old soldiers and then the historians, seldom to any final conclusion. The question of why General Eisen- hower did not send his Western armies into Berlin is such a question. This controversy is particu- larly lively right now because of the Berlin crisis. Many believe that had General. Eisenhower sent his troops into Berlin, West- ern bargaining power over rights of access would have been much strengthened; rights would have been spelled out in more detail; and the West would not be vul- nerable now to Soviet challenge. It is a fact that the Soviets got there first and that the West- ern armies entered much later — by consent of the Soviets, which was slowly and reluctantly given. That Western armies could have reached Berlin first is not. seriously challenged. Advance patrols of the Western armies were well beyond the Elbe and had penetrated into the western suburbs of Berlin itself when they were recalled on General Eisenhower's orders, and his armies took up their position on the Elbe. At that time the Soviet armies had not yet crossed the Oder. Nor is it in question that the order recalling the patrols and placing the Arnerican front on the Elbe was issued by General Eisenhower. What is in question is whether his decision was justi- fied by conditions prevailing at the time. This reporter was one of a group which was received by General Eisenhower in his head- quarters at Rheims on the day after the order to halt on the Elbe was made public, writes Jo- seph C. Harsch in the Christian Science Monitor. Obviously, we asked him why he had issued the order. His rea- Searching For The. Secrets of Sleep The peculiar chemistry of sleep is something which still baffles scientists. But a new investiga- tion, launched by Dr. Chester Pierce and his assistants at Oklahoma University Medical Centre is trying to track down some of its age-old secrets, espe- cially those concerning the effect of dreams, Bad or anxious dreams, the kind which produce nightmares and cold sweats, have been sus- pected of promoting heart attacks or brainstorms, Such effects may arise because ugly dreams, by generating ex- citement, increase the amount of fatty Material, called cholesterol, circulating in the blood. This material, says scientists, clogs the arteries, and may lead to thrombosis. For his investigations, Dr. Pierce has persuaded a student to act es 'guinea pig," The stu- dent sleeps in the hospital labor- atory with a tube attached to a vein in his arm and a small bat- tery of electrodes fitted round his head. The electrodes record his brain- waves and eyeball movements. By watching this graph the in- vestigator can tell at once when the student is dreaming. = At fevourable moments he takes samples of the student's blood. When he has obtained the vital blood sample, the investigator, can waken the student, who can theniargeia‘m. .e accurate details about h Br, Pierce also hopes to dis- cover exactly how sleep refreshes human beings. It may be, he says, that in twenty years' time the average man's eight hours a day will be quite unnecessary. One or Iwo iiburs May be suffi- cent, depending on its intensity.
