I 2 The Newi-Revlew, Roteburf, Ore.-Men., Nov. 28, 1949 Convicted Reds Denied Tour Right " NEW YORK, Nov. 28.-UP) Federal Judge Irving R. Kauf man refused Saturday to ign an order through which the 11 convicted Communist leaden hoped to obtain permission to travel around the country. Counsel for the top members of the Communist party In the United States had sougnt an or rir which would comDcl the gov- eminent to show cause why the 11 men should not be able to travel without restriction. The men, free on ball, are confined to the federal district in wnien thev live. . "There has been absolutely no reason shown to me why I should with good conscience sign a snow cause oraer, juuge naur ' man told counsel for the men. "I can not see that there Is any compelling urgency or the Im mediate necessity for the appel lants to travel throughout the United States." Material For Atomic tntrejy Will Bt "Bred" . (Continued trom Page One) Frank Carey, Associated Press ' science writer, says: ". If this try succeeds, atomic development for both war and neace would be greatly strength ened. The commission did not state this In Its announcement, but It was Imnliclt. . The AEC did tell a little of its mans to speed work on harness ing atomic energy for Industrial power and for propelling ships and aircraft. "Breeding" would mean great ly expanded resources of atomic materials lor use in Domos or as fuels In established or proposed peace-time applications of atomic energy. It would mean that In the pro duction ol tnese materials, iuh use could be made of uranium-238, the non-fissionable kind that Is 140 times more plentiful in nature than scarce uranium-235, the "fis sionable" kind. It would also mean that full use could be made of the non-fissionable metal thorium which is even more plentiful than U-238. A "fissionable material" Is one whose atoms can be "split," re leasing atomic energy. The commission said It expected to complete by the end of next year, construction o' a device it calls "an experimental breeder reactor." This means a "furnace" de signed to create more atomic fuel than is actually consumed in keep ing the atomic fire burning. The objective Is the same as putting a little good coal In your home furnace, together with a lot of coal that Would not ordinarily burn and then winding un with more good coal than you started with in the first place. Chargaa Draw Laugh The word of this "breeder" project was the most Important news irom tne conference out it ranged over a wide field. f JltAnthal almnltr lanffhail nff cutuKes jrom oenaior jawin i;. Johnson (D-Colo) that he Is oil- ffnppH In a "nAfnWnn nlnt" M Ive atomic secrets to the Bru sh. Johnson made those charges over the weekend. For some months, Britain, Can ada and the United States have engaged In conversations of pos sible broader exchange of atomic information. A new series of talks began today at the State department. Asked what might come of them, Llllenthal said he thinks the talks are "exploratory" and that any comment must come vfrom the State deDartment " He said It la his personal view that it Is desirable to cooperate as widely as possible with the British and Canadians. But he insisted it is up to the State de partment, and Congress, to make the final decision on how wide tnis Held should be. The AEC chairman would not let himself be drawn out about a recent telecast by Senator John son which reportedly led to a presidential order last week for tne Justice department to crack down on anyone divulging atomic wcrris. Llllenthal Indicated, however that he believed Johnson was taming out of turn when the senator said the Untied States now has an atomic bomb six times more powerful than the one which blasted Hiroshima. Llllenthal did say that the Senate-House Atomic committee is "completely informed on prog ress in weapons development. This suggested that Johnson, a member of that group, had sufll- DON'T MAKE A MOVE 'til you see F L E G E L Transfer and Storage Phone 935 Tour Of His District Slated By Ellsworth (Continued From Page One) annual banquet of Student Chap ter of the American Society of Engineers at Oregon State col lege, Corvallis.

Kiel Placed On Trial On Murder Charge (Continued from Page One) the Jurors that they should not give any more weight to the testimony of police officers than that of other witnesses. He also pointed out that "an Indictment Is not evidence, and a person can be indicted, arrested, and put on trial for his life and still not be guilty." The district attorney and his deputy, James Richmond, asked the jurors If they would return a verdict of guilty, If they are "convinced beyond a reasonable doubt" of Kiel's guilt. They said this does not necessarily mean "beyond all possible doubt." They also said the legal test for Insanity, on which the Judge might Instruct them, would- be whether Kiel had the "ability to understand the difference be tween right and wrong." clent Information to know what he was talking about. Johnson hlmscjf has said that he simply was repeating what had been said publicly by others that he had disclosed no se crets. Reporters tried to draw Llllen thal out about the government's announcement In September that there had been an aomlc ex plosion In Russia news indicat ing the Soviets had developed an atomic bomb. He said there was nothing more to be said about it than has already been announced by President Truman.
