US To Remain On Okinawa After Pacific Trip
Secretary of the Army Brucker said the United States intends to retain Okinawa for many years and strengthen military power there. He found no imminent Communist attack on Quemoy or other Nationalist islands and noted tensions around Korea remain at a razor edge of readiness. He said North Korea may have new weapons and that Chiang Kai-shek urges more aid while the Nationalists feel constrained.

Independent oil and gas producers foresee 1956 demand around 9 million barrels daily, up 3.4 percent from 1955, with domestic production potentially rising if imports stay near 1954 levels.

Rock Formations Are Changing Under Sea
Scientist Dr. Roger Revelle reports that submarine rocks may convulse due to radioactivity, with heat flow measurements showing deeper undersea rocks producing more total radioactivity. Two Pacific heat spots, the Acapulco Trench and a ridge west of it, suggest cold rock sinking under the trench and warm rock rising under the ridge, at a snail like pace.

Segregation Core Issue Prompts National Debates
The NAACP calls for a government probe of the Federation for Constitutional Government as subversive to segregation aims in New York. A former Virginia governor in Congress seeks the Attorney General to reveal a DOJ official who questions using public funds for private schools to avoid integration. North Carolina asks the Supreme Court to abandon its ban on segregation and return to separate but equal. The AAAS votes by mail on preventing future sessions in cities permitting discrimination. Tuskegee Institute's president notes the South edging toward integration with pockets of tension, optimism for progress through multiple avenues.
