U.S. Defense
Chiefs Push
A-Sub Plans
WASHINGTON, . Feb. " 2KAV
' America's defense chiefs today
were reported pushing plans for
development of the world's first
atom-powered submarine a pro
ject that might revolutionize naval
warfare.-
Theoretically, such an under
aeas craft would have an almost
unlimited range.
Research on "atom engines' for
airplanes was also reported pro
gressing. Clow secrecy surrounded both
projects, but a well-posted Infor
mant said discussions art under
way between the navy and the
Hextric Boat co porr.tion of Gro
ton. Conn., build ;r of many of the
itavr'g submarine.
The atomic energy commission
disclosed that three Electric Boat
technicians have been sent to at
tend "nuclear reactor courses at
the Great Oak Ridge, Term., atom
ic works.
T. Frovlde Power
The nuclear reactor is the "fur
nace" which provides the ingredi
ents of A-bombs and, it is hoped.
will provide power for atomic en
gines also.
An informant said the navy
. electric boat discussions are so far
long that in all likelihood con
gress will be asked to tack on new
funds for the work in making up
the 1931 navy budget for the fis
cal year beginning next July 1.
. AEC officials said the commis
sion and two of its major contrac
tors General Electric and West
Inghouse are negotiating with
Electric Boat in connection with
the atom-powered submarine pro-
: lect ;
Sfay Extend Enerry
Scientists say the amount of nu
clear fuel destroyed in the split
second of an A-bomb explosion
could be utilized, under controlled
conditions, to give off useful en
ergy for months or .perhaps even
years.
Thus the critical factor of fuel
consumption In naval craft which
played an Important part in the
long running erase ana una w
truction of the German super
battleship Bismark during World
War II would be virtually elim
inated in atom-powered ships.
An AEC report to congress last
month revealed that progress has
been made toward development of
reactors suitable for submarine or
surface vessel propulsion. '
It said the reactor would be "a
single purpose machine designed
sDecifically for the purpose of pro-
- during large amounts of heat un
der conditions, that will permit
conversion to power for naval ves-
eir .
The report noted that the re-
Mrch and development work was
well advanced, and declared that
"detailed engineering design of i
hip propulsion reactor is sched
vied to begin during 1950."

LUMP E ft
Americans want a great moral
crusade for peace through world
control and reduction of all arm
aments, "and through generous
use of our economic resources to
Improve world living standards."
Levering said 'there Is a chance
that Russia might accept a dis
armament plan and might Join
the U. S. in a world welfare pro
gram. Mr. Truman's decision to press
fordevelopment of the new wea-
hpon should nave Deen wiuineia
until there had been "an exhaus
tive effort to build atomic peace,
Levering asserted.
The administration view is that
Russia has shown she will re
spond only to strength and that
our task now is to correct weak
nesses in the noncommunist
world.
Varied Views
Witnesses alternately hammer
ed and upheld proposals for At
lantic union or world federation.
The subcommittee is weighing
several resolutions aiming at
peace through international mea
sures. One would authorize the
president to bring together the
Atlantic democracies to consider
a union. Another suggests a
world federation as the main ob
jective of American foreign pol
icy. Levering,- who said his commit
tee represents almost all Quaker
groups in the country, backed the
world federation idea, saying the
committee viewed an Atlantic
union as a partial step which
might lead only to dividing the
world into armed camps.
Psychological Campaign
Mrs. William D. Leetch, repre
senting the National Society of
New England women, opposed
either Atlantic union or a world
government. She proposed a psy
chological campaign to supply a
Russian underground movement
with money, printing presses and
radios.
Marvin L. Goldberger, national
legislative director of AMVETS,
World War II veterans organiz
ation, urged that the United Na
tions be strengthened and broad
ened into a world federation.
Edward Jerome, representing
the National Economic Council,
Inc., a citizens' group, opposed
any moves toward world govern
ment He argued that the people
of the United States would reject
any such proposal and even if a
majority " approved "the defeated
minority would have an inalien
able right to refuse to be govern
ed by a world state. !
Backs Federal Union
A former assistant secretary of
state, Garrison Norton, backing
the Atlantic Federal .Union idea,
said he hoped any I such move
would not be controlled by the
state department. Hie contended
that such action outside the
framework or present policy
would meet department opposi
tion. State department officials al
ready have told the subcommittee
that they do not want action now
on Atlantic union or world fed
eration proposals, contending It
might result in weakness instead
of strength, and might injure the
United Nations organization.

Plea for Peace
Talks Renewed
By Churchill
LONDON, Feb. 20-(P)-Winston
Churchill renewed his appeal to
the British people tonight to en
dorse his idea for new high level
talks with Russia.
The 75-year-old conservative
made his last major speech at
Manchester as both labor and tory
leaders predicted victory in
Thursday's election. Political ob
servers from all shades of opinion
predicted a neck-and-neck rap- tn
the wire. Both parties redoubled
their bids for doubtful votes.
Prime Minister Attlee issued a
message to all labor candidate.
and workers warning that the
campaign was "in its most vital
stage."
"If our ramnaicm maintains Vi

spirit which has been evident so
far." he declared. thn r am nn

Neck and Neck'
Lord Woolton, chairman- of the
conservative party, told a Mid

the election is Ineck and neck,"
and added:
I believe that one of .the big
gest problems we conservatives
will have to face when we get
back into office you observe I
did not say if, I said "when' is
the problem of the cost of living."
Two possible barometers, the
bookmakers and the stock market
showed uneasy fluctuations.
Bookmakers odds against a con
servative victory dropped for a
time today to 11 to 10, as the
result of a flood of tory money
over the weekend, but returned
to 6 to 5, the same as on Satur
day. Odds on labor, after a similar
flurry, went back to 4-6.
Other Halls Rented
Churchill, the war-time member
of the "Big Three" in allied coun
cils, spoke to a crowd of 2,000
in Manchester's Albert halt But
the conservatives had rented
seven other halls in the city
where another 6,000 heard him
over a relay network.
He asked Britons to repudiate
leaders of the labor party who
have charged that his proposal for

He assailed labor's leaders as
being "above the heads of the
working people" and unwilling to
let them discuss matters "of life
and death to the nations."
Churchill said his plea for new
talks had "rolled round the world
and may have created a new sit
uation." Labor party ministers have not
rejected Churchill's Idea in so
many words, but some have call
ed it "soap box diplomacy," and
Prime Minister Attlee has said
that the question of' an atomic
settlement is a matter for United
Nations channels.

OREGON COLLEGE OF EDU
CATION, Monmouth, Feb. 20
John Eklund, national president
of the AFL American Federation
of Teachers, today complimented
Oregon College of Education on a
"basically intelligent and fine job"
of teacher.training.
Eklund, speaking before nearly
200 OCE teachers and studentsJ
sam a speech last week he had in
tended as an attack on "remnants
of a three-year certification pro
gram" in Oregon has been mis
interpreted and misquoted as an
attack on "the dual system as it
now exists in Oregon."
He referred to a speech last
Thursday at Reed college in Port
land where he was quoted as say
ing the state's teacher training
system was a "relic of the dark
ages" because of the dual system.
Under the dual system, elemen
tary and high school teachers at
tend different preparatory institu
tions. "I agree wholeheartedly with
Dr. Louis Kaplan's view that the
heart of the matter is certification
and standards problems," Eklund
said here today.

and psychology department, had
