Ceylon Hits Red Colonialism At Asian Hoover Talks About Revision Of U.S. Charter WASHINGTON tfi - Former President Herbert Hoover said Thursday there must be a "great change in the whole Communist attitude" before any worthwhile changes In the United Notions charter can be made. The t)9-year-old Republican told a Senate subcommittee he has "no notion that we can abandon any organization. , , that makes for peace." The U. N. docs perform that function, he said, even though it "of course has not fulfilled our hopes." Hoover testified on possible re visions of the 11. N. charter, 10 years old this year. The U. N. General Assembly must consider at its next session this fall the question of calling a revision con-1 terence. The subcommittee, headed bv Sen. George iD-Gal, chairman of the full Foreign Relations Com mittee, heard suggestions on pos sible charter changes last Tuesday from former President Truman. Friday Mrs. Franklin D. Roose velt, widow of the wartime Pres ident, will be heard. The ideas presented by those and other witnesses presumably will be passed along to the Eisen hower administration for consid eration when the issue of revision comes up in the U. N.

DAR Condemns Ike's Atom Pool WASHINGTON upi Tlie Daugh ters of Ihe American Revolution Thursday condemned President Ei senhower's atoms-for-peacc plan. The President in a United Na tions speech Dec. 8, 1953. proposed creation of an international atom ic pool, with a stock of fissionable materials, to aid in development of peaceable uses of nuclear cner-. gy. He urged the step to reverse the fearlul trend of the atomic arms race. Since then the proposal has been watered down to one for a clear-' ing house for peacetime atomic information. The DAIt In convention here did not mention the Elsenhower plan as such. But without discussion and amid applause it unanimously adopted a resolution urging "immediate. " abandonment of all such plans." , The resolution declares a DAft belief that the pooling of atomic information and resources among; nations constituting the U.
