Attention to Poverty
"The most significant occurrence of the twentieth century
has been the revolt of three-quarters of the world's popula
tion against poverty and illness," Paul T. Hoffman, director
of the United Nations' Special
According to Hoffman, t
have been awakened from cen-,
tunes of lethargy and now rea-1
lrze that a better life is possible.
Out of their yearnings can come
a better world. However, warned
Hoffman, if these yearnings are
ignored, greater international ten
sions will occur
The justification for our aid
should not be that by extend• '
ing economic aid we gain
friends and influence people, he
said, but that it is in our in
terest to help these people re•
main free and independent.
Huffman emphasized that the
dimensions of the problems ate
widespread. Over one billion peo
ple in 100 countries are involved.
In spite of all the programs of
aid sponsored by many of the
industrialized nations and pri
vate agencies, not nearly enough
is being done, said Hoffman.
'Progress has been dangerously
too slow."
Most of these countries have
been under-developed because
of the under-utilization of hu
man and natural resources, Ac
cording to Hoffman, there is a
great need for all types of
training, facilities and studies
of their needs and physical re
sources.
Hoffman said that much more
could be done with the money
which is now spent if it were
channeled to a multi-national or
ganization, such as the United
Nations. Because this way will
be cheaper and because th e
under-developed countries prefer
this, multi-national aid is bet
ter, he said. • Hoffman said that

the maximum of self-help should)
be required of the aided country.!
Hoffman said that the present
rate of investment in these under-1
developed countries should be;
doubled in order to achieve any I
real progress. Since over one
half of the $3OO billion spent in,
I aid comes from the United States ? !
one-half of the additional amount)
!should also come from the Unit
led States. This would amount to
i sls billion in the next decade,
'said Hoffman.
The developed countries are
justified in making this invest
ment not only morally, but also
from the point of view that
the neglect of resources is in
defensible economically. "The
only Way to insure our own de
velopinent is to aid these under.
developed countries in their
development," said Hoffman.
If such a program could be
carried out in the next decade,
this could be the most significant
step forward of the century, ac
cording to Hoffman. "The most
compelling reason for foreign aid
is our security," Hoffman said.
An investment of $3O billion
in the next decade will pay rich,
dividends and economic advance
would be a new offense toward
relieving international tension, a
step toward peace, he said. Hoff
man said that the war against
need can be won by the end of
the century,

tmosphere Studies
Supported by Grant
Research is under way at the University's lonosphere
Research Laboratory to study the properties of the upper
atmosphere.
The project, under the direction of Dr. William J. Ross,
associate professor of electrica
a one-year grant of $90,000 from,
the National Aeronautics and,
Space Administration and the'l
Wright Air Development Center.:
It is a continuation of research!
started in 1958 during the Inter- 1
national Geophysical Year under'
the sponsorship of the National
Science Foundation.
Presently, Ross and his col
leagues are measuring radio
waves from Russia's Sputnik
111. At this time the satellite
has the most suitable radio
transmitter and orbital prop
erties for this experiment.
However, the United States is /
expected to launch two satel
lites specifically designed for I
this type of experiment within 1.
the next year.
Signals from Sputnik 111 are'
picked up by sensitive radio re-;
ceivers and the satellite's signal)
frequency is compared with a sta-;
ble reference frequency. The out-!
put of the receiver is recorded'
on magnetic tape.
These tapes are later played
back and anlyzed and the final,
results are recorded on • charts.l'
Much of the equipment for the'
experiment has been constructed:
in the laboratory since no suit
able commercial units were avail-'
able.
The aim of this research is
to find out more about the na
ture of the upper atmosphere
from about 200 to 800 miles up.
Little is yet known about this
legion according 'to Ross. In the
past year his' measurements of
the total number of electrons
in the ionosphere have shown
surprisingly large daytime
values and an unexpectedly
large decrease in the number
of free electrons at night. Sea
sonal changes also have been
observed.
Ross believes that current
theories concerning the formation,
of ionization at great heights will
have to be revised to some ex-,'
tent to account for these observa-1
flans. However, at least a com
plete year's date must be analyzed:
before it can be definitely de
termined whether these are nor
mal effects or are due to high'
t sunspot activity or possibly to!
{high altitude atomic explosions.;
In addition to the station at l
{the University, the lonosphere
{Research Laboratory operate s
similar stations at Ohio State'
University and the University of
Virginia. , The data from these{
stations is relayed by telephone;
to the master recording station at
Penn State.
The New England states are
Maine, New Hampshire, Vermont.
Massachusetts, Rhode Island and
Connecticut.
