Civilians, Not Military, Should Have Control of Atomic Energy, Urey Says
New York. (UP)—Dr. Harold C. Urey in a statement today on behalf of the Federation of Atomic Scientists asserted that "plain speaking" on an international scale in regard to atomic energy "should be done by our civilian authorities and not by the Manhattan District."

Uncle Sam To Pay Vets' Flying Expense
Any veteran may learn to fly at government expense Lloyd L. Ware Jr., instructor at the Lawrence air port, said today.
The regional office of the Veterans Administration at Kansas City notified the air port that the CAA has approved its flying school. Any veteran may obtain his private license, instructors' rating or his instrument rating at the school. Mr. Ware continued. He need not be enrolled in the University but he must take the KU ground school course to receive college credit for his work.
Veterans must present an eligibility certificate before they may start flying. Forms for applying for the certificate may be obtained from the air port office, but the actual certificate is obtained at the Board of Trade building in Kansas City.
A veteran must present his copy of discharge, marriage certificate (if married), and statement of service before he may receive his eligibility certificate.
