When Prof. Frederick Soddy heard that the hydrogen bomb had been exploded he exclaimed: "Well, that puts the lid on it."

He was interviewed at seaside Brighton where he lives so quietly in retirement that oven his neighbours scarcely know he in the man who started the atomic

Facets Of Life In Spain Today

Madrid.

Since the Columbus epic rebounded and America “discovered" Spain and set up bases here, the natives have been rushing to learn English. But in the midst of Spain's anti-British "return Gibralta" campaign "learn English" advertise- ments look like high treason. So one language school bought a lot of newspaper space to assure that English is the language of 150,000,000 Americans, 14,000,000 Canadians, 8,000,000 Australians. The 50,000,000 English weren't men- tioned.
