A small fortune in diamonds lies buried in the center of the city of Philadel phia, but the shaky hulk of a burned out building sianas guara over it like a dragon over some fairy tale treasure. The diamonds $50,000 worth are only part of the valuable properly of six jewelry firms that was buried under debris when one ot Philadelphia's worst fires collapsed the interior ot a lour storv building on Dec. 28. Thousands of pedestrians daily nass the rubble-strewn site at Eighth and encstnut sirceis, a stone's throw from Gimbel's de partment store. Many joke with nolicemen about the diamonds they are guaraing unaer ine ruins night and day. But it's no joking matter to the jewelry merchants, members of the diamond center of Philadel phia. They are in the role of knights in armor who want to challenge the dangerous wreckage that stands astride the iewcls. But the city won't let them in. "We could get our stuff out of there in an hour if we were per mitted to go in," one of them commented after a meeting of the former tenants. They discussed AF Silent on Atomic Plane Runway Delay Atomic Engine Appears Nowhere Near Ready For Testing salvage plans with the contractor hired by the city to clear the debris.

President Eisenhower told a news conference Wednesday the secretary had made a "very. . . unwise statement. Hut tiscn howcr backed Wilson's contention that all new Guard recruits should lake six months of active basic training. Meantime, Wilson was invited lo appear as the opening witness Monday at a House Armed Serv ices subcommittee hearing on all reserve programs, including me Chairman Brooks (D-La) said Wilson was invited to "give the .subcommittee an elaboration on your views concerning the Na tional Guard, tho role the mem bers of that organization have played in the past and what may be expected of them in the future." A furor developed after Wilson told the full Armed Services Com mittee Inst Monday that "a sort of scandal. . . a draft dodging business" developed during the that details of the program for the year beginning July 1 may be disclosed at hearings before con gressional appropriation commit tees "in March or April." He said the reason for deferring the project was "classified In the interest of natinal defense. There has been some speculation that tho engine may not be ready tor testing in flight. A General Electric to. execu tive said in Berkeley, Calif., last week that an atomic engine for military planes has been built and is undergoing tests at Idaho Falls. John M. Hobbs, manager of the manufwturing section of GE's Atomic Power Equipment Depart ment, told a conference of high way officials: "The men who arc testing it are very, very optimistic and they have run into no problems which they feel cannot be solved." Hobbs said he couidn t give de tails of the engine, but he ex pressed doubt an atomic engine could be used in commercial planes because of the weight of shielding needed to protect pilots from radiation Money for the runway was made available in a supplemental appropriations bill last year. An Air Force officer told a Sen- alo committee the runway would be used for the testing of "the nuclear-powered airplanes that we expect to have at this end-time period (presumably , by June 10, 1957.) Major Changes By Senate Due In Ike Doctrine Hearings Will Continue For Another Week on . Mid-East Plan By ERNEST B. VACCARO WASHINGTON W-Scnale Dem ocrats said today President Eisen hower's Middle East resolution faces extensive revision and at least another, week of hearings. Tho House made only minor changes in passing the measure Wednesday by a 355-61 vole. . The resolution would enable Eisenhower to make Up to 200 mil lion dollars available for military and economic aid to the Middle East, and give advance approval for uso of U.S. troops to halt overt Communist aggression there. 'Statesmanship Displayed Contrasting House aclion with that in the Senate, Chairman Gordon ID-Ill) of the House For eign Affairs Committee said in a statement that the House s "over whelming vote, within littlo more than three weeks after receiving the President's request, is another proof that the so-called lower body of the Congress can act expedi tiously and with statesmanship to meet an urgent situation." The Senate Foreign Relations and Armed Services Committees have been holding joint hearings off and on for the last three weeks. Sen, Russell, (D.-Gn.) of the latter group said today the hearings will continue at least un til the end of next week and pos sibly into the week following. The committco then must consider amendments before acting on the resolution itself. The senators heard Adm. Ar thur W. Radford, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, yesterday and recessed until Friday, when Secre tary of State Dulles will return tor more questioning. 20 Witnesses Expected More than 20 witnesses are ex pected at a public hearing on Monday. Several senators reported that Democratic leader Lyndon B. Johnson of Texas is working on an extensive rewriting ot the reso lution designed to meet objections from Democrats. One group, led by Russell favors splitting the resolution in to two parts. They would vote first for congressional backing ot El senhower s use of U.b. troops, and leave the economic phase for later consideration. Both Dulles and Elsenhower have said a separation of the two phases would destroy the effective ness of the program they are ad vocating. ton int' '-l'"'!' -1 i Snyder Promoted After belne promoted to captain In Germany, Ernest W.
