Gleiin Cunningham Washington, D C. (Special) Washington is a city of memor ials, statues and plaques. Most famous of these are of course the memorials to Washington, Lincoln and Jefferson. There are now so many mem orials and statues to so many people that the people who plan and sponsor such things must be running low on ideas. In fact, last week there was a plaque dedicated to a park bench! It happened to be a ra ther special park bench, though the one where noted financier Bernard Baruch used to sit and think, in Lafayette Park, across Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House. The Boy Scouts placed a pla que on this bench to mark Ba ruch's 90th birthday. Baruch financial adviser to every Pres ident since Wilson was unable to journey from New York for the ceremony. I have commented before on the new office building (cost 64 million) being built for Representatives. It was strong ly opposed by many when it was first started in 1957. One of the first resolutions I introduced in 1957 would have scrapped plans for this third office building for Congressmen, but the resolu tion was pigeon-holed without action. This structure is so large that the exterior marble will have to be furnished by two of the leading companies in the busi ness. The Capitol Architect ex plains that the building is so big that not one firm in the coun try could supply all the marble in the time required. Developments in military and space research have already been converted for use by pri vate citizens and industry. Automatic pilots, radar sys tems and other flight equip ment of advanced design for missiles and fpace vehicles are bringing improvements in sim ilar aircraft equipment. Surveying equipment is be ing revolutionized by measure ment devices developed for mis sile guidance. Drilling by jet power may prove of great bene fit in mining, quarrying and construction. A glass fiber device develop ed in space research is alrea dy in use in dentistry and sur gery. When placed in the mouth during dental work or in the area of surgery, a magnified televising of the action is pos sible. Automatic gun cameras de veloped for space projects are now being used at banks and turnpike toll stations. In agriculture, a new forage harvester has been developed from missile engineering prin ciples. Research for military uses and space flight is creating new industries as civilian applica tions are found. There are now an estimated 5,000 companies and private research organiza tions in the missile and space field. n Lyman Lorensens Are Honored WEEPING WATER (Special) Mr. and Mrs. E. E.
