Austria (AP) The United States announced today it is prepared to throw open four of its nuclear reactors to inspection by experts of the International Atomic Energy Agency. The a i m is to demonstrate its belief in the necessity and workability of in ternational inspection measures. The United States took the initi ative on an issue which is re garded as the most crucial question facing the fourth general conterence ot me i a r. a , mei atoms-for-peace organization. U.S. Delegate John A. Mc Cone, chairman of the Atomic En ergy Commission, made the an nouncement after reading a special message to the conference from President Eisenhower.

I McC'one summed up the U.S. j record of aid to the IAEA, which , he called impressive, and then declared the United States is ready to take a major step in overcoming the delicate East- west problem of international safeguards to insure that nuclear material handed out by the agen-! cy is not diverted for military purposes. ' If the safeguards syslem is put j into effect, the Uniled States will request the agency to inspect four of its reactors for an agreed peri ! od. These are two research reac-1 oratory near New York; the re actor at Argonne National Laboratory near Chicago: and the organic moderated nuclear power plant being constructed at Piqua, Ohio.

The delegates voted 3117 against a Soviet motion to oust the Nationalist Chinese and re place it with a Peiping delegation. There were eight abstentions. SOCIAL WASH LOCKPORT. NY.
