Fuller told reporters he had submitted a proposal but did not disclose its terms. He, first said it provided for the miners to return to work but later reported it would not end strike immediately but would clear" the way. Management sources. however, insisted that Mr.

Fuller's only proposal was put in the form of a question whether the operators would pay union claims for back overtime if the U. M. W. agreed to submit a more explicit set of demands. Overtime Claims Snag Negotiations The overtime claims, estimated by the union at more than 000, have snagged the negotiations for more than a week.

Senator Wayne L. Morse former member of the War Labor Board, charged that Mr. Truman was responsible for the length of the strike for failing to use the prestige of his office to get labor and management to submit the dispute to voluntary arbitration.

Reported missing in action for nearly three months in Germany, Moane spent 150 days How People Get New Ideas Is Explained by Educator How one ever comes to have a new be understood by applying physics to a study of the idea, nervous system, Prof. Warren S. McCulloch of the University of Illinois School of Medicine, declared in annual James Arthur lecture of the American Museum of Natural History.

Using domino-like wooden blocks to illustrate some 'his points, he showed how one can set up a method of calculation of simple signals in the nervous system every one of which is true or false. An example of a signal that is false, or an event that does not happen, is the light you seem to see when you close your eyes and press on your eyeballs. The signal is false because there is no light. Such a method of calculation is set up so one can think about the activity of the nervous system. The signals operate like a relay mechanism in which the signals are regenerated.

The energy for the signal comes from the thing which sends the signal, not from the signal. For example, if a person says the sun is shining, he gets the energy for that statement not from the but from the cells of his body. the signals were not resum, generated, the energy would run down long before the person got around to using his muscles to say the sun is shining. Processes in the nervous system, Navy Yard Men Wage Layoff Fight Continued from Page himself a former Navy Yard employe. Mr.

Breslin said that in September, 1945, the Navy Yard was employing 70,000 workers and that, if the Navy Department's schedule of layoffs was maintained, only 12,750 would still be at work next September. He said a rough guess was that only about 28,000 of the original force would still have work after May 25. Many of the men thus affected, he a said, were veteran employes who had given the best years of their lives to the navy. Veterans Laid Off "I know men who have worked there 30 and 35 years and are being laid off," he said. "They can't retire under the law as it now stands.

"These are men who took five or ten years off their lives working under great pressure during the war with officers insisting on production and more producton. Nobody can realize what the situation means until it hits home." Assemblyman Crews joined the delegation and pledged himself to confer with every member of Congress he knew. He said he would appeal to House Minority Leader Joe Martin. "I think," said Mr. Crews.

Emile Verret today asked the State attorney general to rule on whether young Willie Francis, 17- year -old Negro and confessed murderer, must hake a second trip to the electric chair tomorrow. Simultaneously it was learned that attorneys for the National AsColored People were planning legal sociation for, the Advancement of moves to halt, or at least delay, the second electrocution of hymnsinging young Negro, who only they "tickled a little' by last Thursday when he sat in the chair Despite a nationwide debate over legality of the second electrocution and an appeal by Father Flanagan of Boys Town for mercy, the State apparently, planned to send the Negro to the portable electric chair again unless Attorney General Fred S. Leblanc rules such action illegal or some court intervenes.

Father Flanagan telegraphed Gov. James H. Davis that he was "deeply interested in saving the life" of the condemned youth and urged that he commute the sentence. Willie, meanwhile, spent the hours quietly in a jail cell atop the Iberia Paris Courthouse here. He is visited daily by his priest, the Rev.

Charles Harrigan, who said the youth remains calm and God-Fearing. RETIRED MINISTER, 81, WILL DEVOTE HIS TIME TO COLLECTING SNAKES Professor McCulloch stated, go In circles back to the place where they started and where they either are stopped or go into reverse like the mechanism that steers a battleship. The same process operates when your stomach starts churning and you are hungry, and then you put food into the stomach and it stops churning. All behavior which has a goal or an end can be explained in these terms. "It always goes in circles and always shuts itself off.

Professor McCulloch explained that if there are two or three circles operating at the same time and if they are incompatible, there must be link between them to stop one of them and establish dominance of the other. So much is known today about the behavior of circuits that Professor McCulloch believes one can apply it to learning what is the physics of the nervous system or of the brain of a patient. Just as the introduction of Planck's quantum theory made sense out of physics and enabled people to figure things out without having to remember all observed facts of physics, so the introduction of the -none theory of activity in the nervous system can be used to understand and figure out by propositions and methods of calculations what goes on in the nervous system. seniority.
