Atomic Scientists Speak In Defense Of Oppenheimer
Chicago (U.P.)—Three more atomic scientists in this nuclear research center today rallied to the defense Dr. J. Robert Oppenheimer. One of them suggested that the persons responsible for Dr. Oppenheimer's suspension should "grow up."
Another said that the nation owes Dr. Oppenheimer a "debt which it can never adequately repay" and the third said that Dr. Oppenheimer's treatment would crush the freedom of thought that built atomic weapons in the first place.
The scientists were Harold C. Urey, Nobel Prize winning chemist, Samuel K. Allison, who helped set off the first A-bomb at Alamogordo, N.M., and Cyril S. Smith, a former member of the Atomic Energy Commission's general advisory committee.
"One of the most unjust things I ever heard of," said Mr. Urey. He said such actions "discourage people from becoming scientists, encourage people not to give their service to the government and will lead to a weakening of our scientific and engineering position."

Shoulders Talks In Own Defense
Former Lt. Lois Shoulders of the St. Louis Police department testified in his own defense at his perjury trial. He is accused of lying to a Federal Grand jury about what happened to the money, more than half of which is missing.
The husky former policeman broke down under questioning by his own attorney, Henry Morris, and cried, "How much can a guy take?" Lt. Shoulders regained his composure during a 15-minute recess ordered by Judge Albert A. Ridge and was calm during cross-examination.
"Let's go get those bags," he said he told Mr. Dolan after the booking. On his way out, he received a telephone call from June Marie George, whom he has since married, and told her their date was off.
