Truman and Attlee To Hold Meeting Compiled by Merle Mass From the wires of Associated Press In order to take a wide survey of the problems which face us today, Prime Minister Attlee of Britain suggested and President Truman ac cepted the idea of a meeting of the two men in the near future. In London, Attlee announced to the House of Commons that he had written Mr. Truman suggesting a meeting. "If it is agreed, I shall lose no time in going over, Attlee said. His announcement drew cheers from the House. It is expected that the meeting will be held in or near Washington, D.O. At Lake Success... _ . . . council debate continued Thursday afternoon but on matters other than President Truman’s startling announcement of using the A-bomb in Korea if necessary. In his address before the Security Council, Sir Gladwyn Jebb, Britain s delegate to the U. N., told members he hoped the Chinese Communists will discover they have been living in a “fairy tale” atmosphere of Mos cow inspired propaganda. The Speedup of Mobilization. . . . . . will hurt all elements of the economy according to W. Stuart Sym ington, Chairman of the National Securities Resources Board. Symington, in his discussion with reporters, described the impending action as shift from a “light gray” to a “dark gray” mobilization plan The report came after Symington and other government officials met with nearly 100 representatives of industry, agriculture and labor. The conference was addressed by Secretary of Defense Marshall. President Truman... . . . held his weekly press conference Thursday morning and announced that active consideration is being given to use of the atomic bomb against the Chinese Communists if that step is necessary. The Chinese delegation at the U. N. had no comment to make, however, members of Congress immediately stepped up to proclaim or disclaim the action. Some of those in favor of the action included Senator Brewster (R-Me) and Senator Maybank (D-SC), while Senator Millikin (R-Colo) and Senator Young (R-ND) took a more cautious view. However, whether the decision is for or aginst using the bomb, it can come only from the White House. Gen MacArthur cannot order the use of the bomb without White House authority. On the Korean Front. . . ... the weather is cold, but the fighting is both hot and cold, depending which side, the east or the west, is examined. An Eighth Army spokes man said wintry quiet prevailed over most of the Northwest front Tues day. But on the Northeastern front the story was different. The Chinese are continuing their assaults on the' U. S. First Marine Division and American infantrymen around Changjin reservoir. Red roadblocks were wedged between the leatherneck regiments and clamped on their 51-mile overland supply route to Hamhung on the East coast. In the House of Commons.. . . . . Winston Churchill called for a secret high level meeting of the West and Russia to end present world tension. He told the House of Commons such a meeting should be held “as soon as suitable opportunity presents itself.” University Jewelry Parker Pens Engraving Watch Repair Trophies Electric Razor Repair Ronson Lighters Across from Sigma Chi 849 E. 13th CAMPUS CALENDAR Friday, Dec. 1 11:45—Univ.
