President Talcing Life Easy eveals No Alarm Over Bv Joan Marble United Press Staff Correspondenl Washington, Feb. 27 (UP J President Truman, who's cur rently the South's most disting uished vacationer, doesn't show any public alarm over the South ern revolt against him. The temporary White House at Key Vest, Florida, has strictly no comment to make on the rum blings from Southern political leaders. The president himself i3 happily going about the busines3 of vacationing. He swam with en listed men at the submarine base yesterday, and is spending a good bit of today on the beach. Actually, developments in the Civil Rights controversy were somewhat mixed today. Name Off Ballot A committee of the Virginia state legislature has moved to soften the so-called "Anti-Truman" law which Governor Tuck proposed yesterday. The commit tee has approved several amend ments to the bill, which aims to keep President . Truman's name off the Virginia ballot. A number of Virginia newspa pers and Republican leaders have heaped criticism on the Tuck proposal. The Richmond Times Dispatch calls the measure "dan gerous and undemocratic." A representative from Georgia however, believes his state should adopt the Tuck election strategy. Democratic Representative Gene Cox told the House today if Georgia legislators have the courage of their5forebears they'll follow Virginia's lead. Another Georgian, Senator Walter George, hinted that a party shakeup give the South a bigger vote in party affairs. He says it will be possible to reorganize the party after the 1948 elections, and he implies that the reorganization will come because the Demo crats may lose the next election. Meanwhile, Republicans are heaping new coals on the sim mering Democratic feud. A Republican-dominated Senate sub committee voted to approve an anti-poll tax bill. A full commit tee is expected to okay the meas ure soon. After that it may get to the Senate floor where it faces a filibuster by Southern Demo crats. Budget Action Congress sent the vacationing President another rebuff. The House today formally ap proved a resolution to cut th.3 President's budget by $2,500,000. The vote was 314 to 3G. The Sen ate already has approved this budget cut, so Congress is now on record as favoring a govern ment" budget of $37,000,000,000. However, there's nothing to force Congress to stick to this figure. Congress has teen urged to slice another $500,000,000 from the Marshall Plan. f Saint. Lawrence Seaway A" biln; to operiPv- the.

Air Force Starts New ROTC Class Here In Spring Colonel Byron R. Switzer, Tactics here at the university an nounced yesterday that a new class will start this Spring Quar ter for the Freshman class. All freshman who have, entered the university the Fall and Winter quarters as well as those enter ing for the first time this corning Spring quarter will be eligible to make application. The purpose of this course of instructions is to train reserve officers for the United States Air Force. At the completion of this four year course and upon gradu ation you are commissioned a Second Lieutenant in the United States Air Force Reserve, which in no way entails you to serve in active military service unless the individual requests active service himself. All, 'Equipment Furnished During the course of instruction there is no expense to the stu dent and all text books and other equipment is Turnished at government expense. Also dur ing your junior and senior years you receive financial benefits which amount to twenty four dollars ($24.00) per month. All freshman students interest ed in making application are re quested to come see Colonel Switzer, at the Air Reserve Of ficers Training Corps (Air ROTC) building located in the rear of the Naval Armory before the Spring quarter starts the 24th of March.

The opposite effect, a ""soft" or "thin" negative, results from under exposure or underdevelopment. At one time photographers had to stock four or five grades of enlarging paper to correct for these conditions and get the right degree of contrast. To eliminate this expensive, unwieldy situation, scientists developed "Vari gam" variable contrast photographic paper. With "Varigam," the whole procedure of getting different degrees of contrast is reversed. Instead of using several grades of paper, the photog rapher uses only one. He gets variation in contrast by use of filters that control the wave lengths of light reaching the paper, thereby getting finer degrees of contrast than are otherwise possible. The action of "Varigam" depends on the ability of certain dyes to extend the sensitivity of silver halide emulsions beyond the blue and blue-green regions. This effect was well known to scientists. But "Varigam" has an added feature it gives high contrast in the blue por tion of the spectrum and is also sensi tive to light in the green region, with low contrast. "Varigam" the work of many men The first job was one for the physical chemists. Silver halide emulsions, nor mally sensitive to blue light, had to be made to give maximum contrast when exposed to light in this region. - It was known that certain dyes would extend the sensitivity of the emulsion over as far as the infra-red. But they were not practical for photographic pa per, being affected by the red safety light used in the darkroom. Research by chemists showed that certain dyes such as l:l'-diethylthiopseudocyanine iodide extended the light sensitivity only to the green region. And, most important, they produced low contrast when used in lower-than-normal concentrations. When such a dye was combined with high-contrast silver halide emulsion, the result was an emulsion that gave high-contrast prints when exposed to blue light, and low-contrast prints when exposed to green light. Physicists Develop Filters Physicists made this contrast control a reality by preparing sharp-cutting fil ters that allow the user to control his printing light selectively. These filters, which are attached to the lens of tho en larger, range from blue fur high con trast to yellow, which cuts out the blue almost entirely and gives low contrast. In between are eight grades of filters with intermediate degrees of blue and yellow light transmission. All of the fil ters are made in such a way that neither light nor printing time needs to be varied as filters are changed, except the last two on the blue end. These require approximately twice the time of the others. In "Varigam," made by Du Pont, chemical science has given the photog rapher new economy and convenience in printing, and a degree of contrnst control more precise than is possible with any combination of commercial papers.
