Strauss Says United States Working To Harness Hydrogen Power for Peace
European Communists
Party Line
DANIEL F. GILMORE
United Press Correspondent
Frankfurt, Germany (U.R)
JRirope's Communist parties
hve shifted into the Kremlin's
riw "sweetnes sand light'' mood
with a barely audible grinding
of gears.
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.

Shift To 'Sweetness'
munist parties to reverse their
policies simultaneously and
"spontaneously."
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.

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.

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.

Break-Through
Noi Yet Reached,
Conference Told
Geneva (U.R) The United
States announced today that it
has been "working for a consid
erable time" to harness for peace
the tremendous power of the hy
drogen bomb.
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.

ATOMIC REACTION The Argonne National Laboratory
built this Borax I reactor (top) on the Idaho desert near
Idaho Falls to conduct 200 experiments on so-called water
boiler reactors and their safety characteristics. Climax
came when control rods were withdrawn and the reactor
deliberately exploded (bottom). Debris was hurled more
than 80 feet into the air. Power inside increase to more
than 10 million kilowatts in l10th of a second. Light
colored objects were believed to be fragments of uranium
