Takes 17 Men to Get Woman to Hospital
Joliet, Ill. - (AP) The services of 17 men, including 10 policemen, were required to remove Mrs. Elizabeth Ebner, 70, who weighs 700 pounds, from her home to a hospital. 
Mrs. Ebner, who has been bedridden 20 years, broke her hip when she fell out of bed a week ago and Wednesday was taken to a hospital. Ten policemen, unable to place Mrs. Ebner in a police ambulance, summoned an undertaker who, with the aid of the policemen, placed Mrs. Ebner on a casket cart and took her to the hospital in a hearse. 
The policemen, 2 undertakers and 5 hospital employes were required to lift Mrs. Ebner from the hearse to the cart. She was placed in 2 hospital beds, which had been bolstered up with lumber. 

DOCTOR HOSPITALIZED
New London - Dr E. J. Lessenger underwent an operation on his vertebrae at University hospital, Iowa City.

Atom Control Need Told
Co-operation of the United States with other nations in the control of atomic energy was urged Thursday by Glen Gray, Rev. Robert Hammilll, and Wilfred White, speakers at the regular Kiwanis meeting. 
Cray outlined the physical characteristics of an atom and traced some of the scientific research that went into the actual breaking down of the atom through use of neutrons. He claimed that, with the atomic bomb, an enemy nation could, in a 2 hour period destroy U.S. major cities and facilities for waging war. 

White explained the use of atomic energy materials in the scientific and medical fields, stating that the immediate formation of atomic energy plants at the present time would be practically impossible as there is no present knowledge of how to build them or control the energy that might be released. He decried American arrogance as being a barrier to world peace and said that world citizenship rather than a 3,000 foot deep bomb shelter would be the best protection from the bomb. 

Hammill told of the Baruch plan which would provide for international control of atomic energy materials. he stated that should it be necessary for the United States to scrap its atomic material scrap pile  in order to achieve an understanding with other nations the move would still be advisable. 

Poland, as tentatively defined after World war II, is a little larger than New Mexico.
