A marvel of the 20th century flill retains the ability of Com- Tour of America By0 Soviet Newsmen Being Considered Washington CU.RJ The State Department is giving active con sideration to a Soviet request sjiat six Russian newsmen be permitted to tour the United Sjates, officials said today. '3 A final decision has been de layed, partly because the depart ment has been busy with the current visit of Russian agricul tural specialists to Iowa and oth ;r states. The U. S. law requir ing the fingerprinting of non official visitors also has delayed the decision. O In addition, the case may be complicated by a "few harass rnents" recently of American of ficials traveling in Russia. Offi cials said that trips had been planned to so-called "free areas" (yhere no travel restrictions are in effect. The Soviet Foreign Ministry said it had no objec tions to the : trips. But when the officials arrived they could not enter the areas. There had been some hope for the relaxa tion of Russia's tight travel re sections. An American-Soviet clash over the fingerprinting issue earlier tls year prompted the cancella tion of a proposed U. S. tour for 11 Soviet student editors. The Russians refused to be finger printed. The Soviet farm delega tion is composed of officials who do not have to undergo the same identification process. Itowas understood that Soviet Defense Minister Georgi Zhu kov, in private talks at the Gen eva summit meeting, complain ed directly to President Eisen hower about the fingerprinting requirement in the 1952 Immi gration andNationality Act. tw, X nj 915 W.

The shift made necessary by the events of the last few weeks has been completed. President Eisenhower and Secretary of State John Foster Dulles have become reasonable men, whose sincerity must be taken into consideration, as the result of the Big Four con ference. West German Chancellor Kon rad Adenauer is no longer a "war maniac" he has been in vited to Moscow. Old Comrade "Hangman Tito" and his Yugoslav Communist "gang sters emerge as wronged com rades since the pilgrimage of Russia's Nikita S. Khrushchev and Nikolai A. Bulganin to Bel grade. In the Communist press of Germany, France, Italy, Aus tria and other countries of Eu rope the Reds have accepted the party line. Moscow's bombshell invitation to Adenauer shocked German Communists. But Khrushchev and Bulganin visited East Ber lin on their way home from the Big Four conference, and as sured the East German Reds they would not be written off. Nimble Step In France, the Communist newspaper organ Humanite is spicing its new line by attacking Premier Edgar Faure on the ground that he is "slavishly backing" American policy. Italy's 2,000,000 strong Com Parsons Motors Sets Open House Parsons Motors, 315 East Fifth st., will hold an open house cele bration Friday and Saturday, ac cording to R. R.

Only Trieste Communist lead er Vittorio Vidali made a mis step. Vidali was so shocked by Khruschev's apology to Tito for his ouster from the Red comin form that he said: "We are profoundly hurt and angered by this variance of jus tice." The big boys of the Commu nist Party in Rome quickly step ped in and said Vidali was tak ing a "parochial" view. Khrus chev, they said, showed a com mendable "breadth of vision." Soldiers Quizzed In Fatal Beating Of Chicago Girl Chicago (U.R) Police today questioned members of an anti aircraft battery about the fatal beating of a pretty girl who went to an Army dance and never returned. The body of 17-year-old Joan Pushin was found yesterday in a clump of bushes in a South Side Park. Her head was crushed and her clothing was in disarray.' Miss Pushin and two girl friends set out Saturday night for a dance given by Battery A of the 734th Anti-Aircraft Battalion. She left the dance alone, walking down a path leading to the spot where her body was found. Four Questioned i Those questioned were her date at the party, Pvt. Arthur Holmes, 19, Kingston, N. Y.; as well as Pvt. Robert Wallace, 20, Petaluma, Calif.; Pvt. Leo Mooney, 21, Le Roy, N. Y.; and Pvt. Wesley Kaiser, 21, Shef field Ala. Wallace an Kaiser es corted Miss Pushin's two friends and Mooney tried unsuccessfully to join their group. Police said. Holmes told police he was drinking at the party and had to be put to bed early. Miss Pusan then turned down an invitation to accompany her friends to the Lake Michigan beach and walked away alone. Holmes and Mooney were scheduled to take lie detector tests today, police said. r FOOD STORE 3 LETTUCE Large, Solid 15 lb. 1 SPUDS 98 25-LB. BAG Roasting Ears 3Qc I. oral Dnt.

Adm. Lewis L. Strauss, chair man of the Atomic Energy Com mission, made the disclosure in answer to questions at U. . N. atoms for peace conference. "But there has been nothing in the nature of a break through," Strauss said. He described the task as a problem "unprecedented in dif ficulty." Because of this, he said, he could not attempt to predict when it might be solved. International Race The formal American an nouncement made official a race to harness the H-bomb between the United States, Russia, Britain and France. Control of the power of the hydrogen bomb, scientists said, would give man a source of power the equivalent of the force of the sun itself. Strauss was asked if progress has been made in that direction. "Progress certainly has been made, from the scientific view point," he said. It was then he added there had been no "break through." Some 300 newsmen attending the conference here peppered Strauss with questions. Most of them he said he was unwilling to answer. Working on Problem At the opening of his press con ference Strauss said he had not answered a question on . Ameri ca's role in "thermonuclear" de velopment because it would lead to other questions and he did not have time to answer them". "I repeat the question," a re porter said. "The reply is brief and affirm ative," Strauss said. "The AEC is and has been working on the subject for a considerable time." He said control of nuclear fis sion is "one of the great projects" now being studied. - Strauss said the project is re ceiving from the U. S. govern ment the amount of financial support requested by the AEC. Strauss was asked if the United States has any information indi cating whether any other nation is as far or further advanced than the United States in the drive to harness the power of the hydrogen bomb. "We haven't," he said. "It is not a subject of this conference." But the race to achieve that his toric goal became the biggest unofficial subject of the confer ence at its opening on Monday when Dr. Homi J. Bhabha of India predicted the power of the H-bomb would be controlled and put to use within 20 years. Chiang Says Release Of Fliers Dictated Los Angeles Generalissimo Chiang Kai-shek said today Red China's release of 11 imprisoned American fliers was dictated by Russia and was nothing more than a "peace mask" to delay a shooting war. He said the American fliers were released "to pave the way for exacting political concessions from the United States." The Chinese Nationalist lead er made his statement in a cable to the Greater Los Angeles Press club in turning down a speaking invitation. Chiang warned that Commun ist peace agreements are respect ed only "so long as it ties our hands, thus giving them time to prepare for the next strike." "The democratic countries of the world should beware," he said. "Any greement reached with the Communists is respected by them as long as it suits them to respect it." More Efficient Firing Possible For Ceramics Buffalo, N. Y. (U.R) More efficient firing of ceramic ma terials at high temperatures is now possible. Electric Refractories & Abra sives Corp. of Buffalo reports the development of a new refrac tory capable of withstanding temperatures up to 3000 degrees F. without warping or cracking. According to company engi neers, no other commercially available materials are able to withstand the temperatures which the new refractories toi erate. The refractory slabs are made cf thin strips of silicon carbide and are said . to be fuel and space-savers.
