It
United States
To Seek Honest
Disarmament Plan
London U.R) U. S. Ambas
sador Henry Cabot Lodge Jr.,
invited Russia today to contrib
ute fissionable material to Presi
dent Eisenhower's "atoms for
peace" pool.
Lodge spoke on the eve of a
five-nation disarmament confer
ence here at which he is the
chief U. S. representative.
He promised that the United
States will "leave no stone un
turned to develop an honest dis
armament scheme" at the forth
coming five-power meeting.
Lodge told a press conference
he had noted Rusia's Feb. 18
statement that the .people of the
world demand establishment
now of a system of world-wide
cooperation and peaceful use of
atomic energy.
Gromyko Confers
As he spoke, Andrei Gromyko,
deputy Soviet foreign minister
and chief delegate to the disarm
ament conference, conferred
with British Minister of State
Anthony Nutting. Informed
sources said Gromyko outlined
Russia's latest disarmament pol
icy. The Soviet plan was first
broadcast by Moscow Radio last
week end, and probably will be
considered by the conference to
gether with other proposals al
ready on the agenda.
These included a Franco-
British compromise plan on
phased" disarmament, or dis
armament in easy stages, with
effective controls, and a U. S.
working paper on controls and
an international authority. West
ern officials have stated they
are prepared to consider alter
native proposals which would
achieve overall reduction of
world disarmaments. .
No Optimism
President Eisenhower, at his
press conference in Washington
yesterday, said history affords
no great reason for tremendous
optimism.
Lodge said today "No one is
more anxious for international
cooperation and peaceful use of
atomic energy than President
Eisenhower."
"Such a system was set up at
the last session of the General
Assembly by a resolution which
received a 60 to - 0 vote," ' he
said. He then issued the Ameri
can invitation to the Russians to
pitch in and cooperate.
"I ask :this question," Lodge
said. ."Wouldn't it make a won
derful impression if the Soviets
were to contribute some fission
able material to the stockpile
being set up subject to that reso
lution? It would be a wonderful
impression if they would back
their statements with some con
crete steps which they can well
afford to take."
NW Congressmen Torn Between Devotion
To President or To Reciprocal Trade Program
By A. ROBERT SMITH
Mail Tribune Correspondent
. Washington Pacific North
west congressmen were torn last
week between devotion to Pres
ident Eisenhower or the recipro
cal trade program and their de
sire to offer protection to a host
of regional industries that op
posed the president's tariff-cutting
trade program.
Representatives of many
Northwest industries were here
trying to enlist votes to modify
or kill the trade bill, a feat
nearly carried off with help
from other regions until Speak
er Sam Rayburn and GOP Lead
er Joe Martin stood shoulder-to-shoulder
to back up a last min
ute plea for support from Eisen
hower. Rep. Thor Tollefson, Tacoma
Republican, spoke for most
Northwest industries opposing
tariff reductions, telling the
House of these regional products
in danger: ,
1. Tulips, iris and daffo
dils "in my district alone
are grown some 30,000,000
King Alfred daffodils annu
ally more than are grown
in all of Holland. But faced
with growing imports of for
eign flowers, produced at the
low-wage rates prevailing
there, the growers of the
Northwest are facing bank
ruptcy." 2. Tuna, salmon and hali
but "there are several
thousand ships and an estimat
ed 20,000 or more fishermen
employed directly in the tak
ing of these fish . . . and yet
with imports from Japan and
South America growing at an
alarming rate, 'these American
ships will be driven from the
seas and the American factor
ies closed up unless relief is
granted soon."
3. Red raspberries "im
ports of cheaply produced red
raspberries from aboard are be
ginning to threaten red rasp
berry growers in my district."
4. Hardboard "six of the
nine domestic producers of
this vital national-defense item
are located in Washington or
Oregon . . . vastly increased
imports have already had a
serious impact on the domes
tic industry. One producer
has been forced to lay off

Instructor Slays
Army Officer as
Climax To Feud
Wichita Falls, Tex. (U.R) A
civilian instructor in intelligence
training today faced charges of
murdering a lieutenant colonel
and wounding a captain in a
flurry of gunfire that ended
long standing disagreement.
William Francis Sink, 38, in
structor at Sheppard Air Force
Base, was charged with the
shooting.
A volley of shots killed Lt
Col. Carl G. Carlson, 43, Spo
kane, and critically wounded
Capt. Marvin L. Marchesi, 34,
Los Angeles, - yesterday in the
colonel's office.
Sheppard authorities believed
the six shots fired at the officers
climaxed a disagreement among
the three men when they were
stationed at Lowry Air Force
Base at Denver.
Trouble in Past
Carlson was director of intelli
gence training at Sheppard,
while Marchesi was attached to
the same outfit.
Sheppard information officers
said Sink was known to have
had trouble in the past with
several military men at Lowry
and was moved to different jobs
from time to time.
Carlson was shot in the head
several times. Marchesi also was
hit in the head at close range
and was reported today in ser
ious condition. A brain surgeon
was flown from Lackland Air
Force Base, San Antonio, to
operate on Marchesi.
Two Pistols Used -
Lt. Billy Rector of the Shep
pard Information Service office
said he knew nothing about
earlier reports that the colonel
was handing Sink his discharge
papers when the shooting took
place.
The Air Force said the shots
were fired from two pistols as
the three men conferred in Carl
son's office.
Sink, who has two sons and
lives in Wichita Falls, was held
today without bond in Wichita
county jail.
One' Sheppard spokesman
quoted Sink as saying after the
shooting: "I did what I wanted
to." ; '
But Rector said he had no re
port of Sink's making any state
ment and referred all questions
to the tight-lipped FBI.
more than 350 employees: an
other reports production cut
backs of 50 per cent."
5. Plywood "this import- !
ant industry, likewise, is suf
ering from a lack of adequate
protection, and plywood made
in Japan at wage rates drasti
cally below those of our own
workers is now coming into
this country in greater and
greater volume."
6. Tree nuts, including fil
berts "The nut industry
has consistently sought (tar
iff) relief ... but this relief
has just as consistently been
denied them."
Wool growers and cherry
growers of the Northwest also
opposed the trade bill.
Tollefson was joined by two
Oregon Republicans, Reps. Har
ris Ellsworth and Sam Coon, in
voting for the motion to send the
bill back to committee with in
structions to revise it so that (1)
the Tariff commission would
have to cancel tariff cuts if an
industry showed it was threaten
ed by foreign competition; and
(2) the president could not, as
now, set duties independently
of the commission's recommendations.
Eisenhower openly opposed
this move by sending Joe Martin I
a letter to read to the House.
Supporting the president were
Republican Rep. Walter Nor
blad and Democratic Rep. Edith
Green, who favored the presi
dent's plan to negotiate with
U.S. allies for gradually reduced
trade barriers over the next
three years.
While many lawmakers dupli
cated Tollefson's plea for indus
tries in their own areas, they
were countered with arguments
from others favoring more trade
who pointed out that trade is a
two-way street in the sense that
every American dollar used to
buy foreign imports is then sub
sequently used by the foreigner
to purchase American goods in
return.
In short, the Americans who
buy imported daffodils or rasp
berries are supplying U. S. dol
lars to foreigners who must then
use them to purchase" American
wheat, apples or Douglas fir
and other U. S.- products that
are seeking new world markets.
