Cordon's Plane
Nearly Ditched
On Pacific Trip
Roscburg's Sen. Guy Cordon re
turned to Washington last week
with his own tale of the South
Pacific. The plane on whieh he
was riding was nearly ditched dur
ing a recent inspection trip, he
revealed.
The incident occurred on a six-
hour flight in an ancient Catalina
Hying boat. Between M'ajuro, iri
the Marshall islands, and I'onane,
in Uie Carolines, a cylinder head
in one of the craft's two engines
split early in December.
It took the big ship 2'i hours
to reach Ponape, and during that
lime, it dropped in altitude from
6,000 to 800 feet. The pilot, realiz
ing the plane was lightly loaded,
elected to fly on rather than
ditch beside a Japanese freighter
when the engine quit.
Cordon said he wasn't worried,
though "the Japanese freighter
was about the only ship I saw in
20,000 miles on the trip."
Cordon, a member of the appro
priations committee, was making
the trip to inspect American ad
ministration of islands whioh the
United States holds in trust under
United Niions.

Russia Offers Talk
On Atomic Control
(Continued from Page One)
the agreement banning the use of
atomic energy for war purposes."
Peace Intent Reiterated
The Moscow statement asserted
the Soviet Union "has conducted
a consistent struggle for the oro-
hibition of atomic weapons and in
addition has worked for reduction
of all other forms of weapons."
It added that President Eis
enhower in his speech also had
pleaded for reducing international
tension and stated:
This also corresponds to the
feelings of the Soviet government
which is continually trying to re-
auce worm tension ana improve in
ternational relations."
The Soviet statement asserted
Russia is and has been trying to
divert atomic energy to peaceful
purposes and improve living con
ditions. It complained that Elsen
hower was not willing to harness
atomic power solely for peaceful
purposes. The Moscow declaration
said Eisenhower's proposals meant
that only a small portion of U.S.
atom resources should be put aside
lor peaceful purposes.
