Cap Square (Continued From Page One) bills affecting governmental reor ganization and other basic matters. TRENDS—Although the' General Assembly has been in session three weeks and has had in hand the Advisory Budget Commission re port - and proposed money bills for two and a half weeks, very little has been accomplished. In fact, it is difficult to discover any trends or indications of what course leg islation will take. Experienced ob servers can detect increasing op timism among those’ recognized as advocates of larger spending than the budget proposed. There is ra ther general belief that the delay is working to the advantage of the heavy spenders. BLOCS—There are ruvi^ttMlMM fined blocs or groups, but there is evidence that advocates of addition til tax levies are not so despondent as they were the first few days of the session. A former legislator who has been around Raleigh since Jan. 3 watching proceedings of this session remarked yesterday that the conservatives had organized both branches of the assembly, but were marking time so long the liberals were perfecting their organization and might well be in position to take the offensive in a few' days.

Internal irradiation is caused by alpha and. beta particles which get inside the body. Danger of this is worse in a ground or underwater burst, since the particles are trap ped In dust or water and . inhaled into the lungs or taken with food or water. Inside the body, these particles upset the digestive system and destroy the ability to produce new blood. Transfusions will be helpful, if irradiation has not been too great. DUNN NOT A TARGET Sterility and mutations, much publicized since the dropping of the first bombs in Japan, have been much less than was expected. Sterility proved to be temporary In most cases, and the mutations hare been minor. If Dunn were hit by an atomic bomb, it would be an accident or a mistake, the major said. Bombs are expensive, and their use would be on "closely packed cities, with large industrial plants, of 250.0QQ population or more. However, other types of bombs would still be used, PTA At Erwin Holds Meeting The Erwin Parent-Teachers Asso ciation held its regular monthly meeting Tuesday evening at 7:30 o’clock in the grammar school aud itorium.
