U.S. Calls for Another Conference To Continue Study of Atoms in Peace
o
Strauss Discloses
President's Desire
To Carry On Work
Geneva (U.R) The United
States announced today that
President Eisenhower wants an
other atoms for peace conference
to carry on "the great beginning"
in international atomic coopera
ction. Adm. Lewis L. Strauss, chair
man of the Atomic Energy Com
mission, said the President had
authorized him to express the
U. S. hope that the work begun
here will continue. '
"I've just received a message
from him (Mr. Eisenhower) au
thorizing? me to state that it is
his hope that a second confer
ence will be convened at a later
date . . . Strauss told the Am
erican club of Qeneva in an in
formal luncheon address.
New Knowledge
"The interval between the
conferences," Strauss said, "may
be as much as two or three years
and will, of course, be gauged
to allow for a significant accum
ulation of new scientific know
ledge." Some 200 American residents
of Geneva, conference delegates
and newsmen heard the United
States call for another atoms
for peace meeting.
It was the first such proposal
by any of the 72 governments
represented at the first atoms
for peace congress. But many
delegates have expressed the
private belief that progress made
here has been such that, the con
ference should continue.
Study Radiation Effects
Strauss said the President is
highly gratified" at the results
of the 12-day session.
World famous biologists and
physisicians were meeting in Ge
neva today,, at the request of
the United Nations, to study the
effects of atomic radiation on
future generations of humanity.
The urgent conference was
called by the UN World Health
Organization (WHO) after scien
tists repeatedly told the Atoms
for Peace conference of the dang
ers ahead through exposure to
radiation.
The problem began occupying
the attention of the world when
the United States and Soviet
Russia tested atomic and hydro
gen bombs and statesmen ex
pressed 'alarm that the atmos
phere might become too polluted
for safety.
Great Question Mark
The -problem became even
more acute when scientists re
ported to the atoms conference
here that tests with laboratory
animals had shown the danger
of mutation changes with the
danger to humans a great ques
tion mark for the future.
Observers said the biologists
and physicians were expected to
use today's hastily-called meeting
to call for a special new meeting
of international scientists to go
into the matter in detail.
Even the experts at Geneva
disagreed as to the ultimate ef
fect of radiation. Dr. T. C. Car
ter, a British medical research
council expert at the Harwell
Atomic station,- noted there is no
agreement on the nature and
magnitude of the genetic dang
er. Dr. William L. Russell, prin
cipal geneticist at Oak Ridge,
Tenn., warned that the danger
of atomic radiation on future
generations may be greater than
generally supposed.
Ahead of Safeguards
Dr. Alexander Hollaender of
Oak Ridge warned again today
that man has plunged so swiftly
into the atomic age he is years
head of the safeguards he ought
to be carrying with him that
the science of protecting human
ify is years behind the study of
atomic energy itself.
Soviet scientists attending, the
Atoms for Peace conference dis
closed' today that much of their
know-how in the field of Atoms
for Peace has been gleaned from
reading Western scientific publi
cations. Three Soviet scientists, V. I.
Mostovoi, M. I. Pevzner and A.
P. Tsitovich, for example, gave
a credit line to the late Dr. En
rico Fermi, one of the American
atomic pioneers, for a complex
piece of atomic research equip
ment called a mechanical neu
tron velocity selector.
The complicated formula
worked out by Fermi and two
colleagues appeared in a 1947
issue of the Physical Review.

Wives are funny people. If
you suggest a dishwasher they
think it's a luxury ... so
many more things she or the
family need first.
They should be reminded that
a dishwasher will give them
over 300 extra hours that could
be spent with you or the
family.
They also forget that you're
tired when you come home . .
tha't you don't want to wash or
dry dishes. A dishwasher is the
greatest time saver, labor
saver . . . wife saver you can
buy, and it's the husbands
best friend!
