U.S.- Speeding A-Bomb
Production; AEC Fund
Curbs Cut by Senate
WASHINGTON, Oct. It WV-The United States Is gottif to speed
Up IU atomic bomb program.
Two moves in the senate late yesterday paved the ay for the
program.
One was the disclosure by Chairman McMahon (U-Colini of the
senate-house atomic committee that President Truman had authorized
the atomic energy commission (AEC) to use some ol its budgetary
reserves "to get started on this
proposition." ) Mlllikin said It was "very lmpor-
The reserves to De used amount
to approximately (30.000.000. or
about 10 per cent of the overall
program which Is to be financed
by a deficiency appropriations bill
In the next session of congress.
Spending Curbs
The second move was senate ap
proval of a measure by Senator
McMahon to lift some of the spend
ing curbs Imposed on the AEC earlier
In the session. This still Is sub
ject to house approval.
McMahon refused to answer when
asked by newsmen whether the
speed-up action is the result of
recent disclosures that Soviet Russia
has had an atomic explosion.
At the United Nations yesterday.
Andrei Vlshinsky. Soviet foreign
minister, restated to a news con
ference the Soviet claim that Russia
has had the bomb since 1947.
Major Effort .
McMahon. while saying that a
"major expansion effort" is being
undertaken, emphasized that it is
"an acceleration of planned pro
duction that has been In the plan
ning stags since last spring."
McMahon made the announce
ment of the president's authoriza
tion following a closed door com
mittee meeting with AEC officials.
The senator predicted the accelera
tion would "probably result In speed
ing up the AEC construction pro
gram by "three or four months."
Be would not disclose any details
of the program, or say what facili
ties and operations are to be ac
celerated. Neither was any break
down of the allocations to the two
plants made available.
Key Points
Kanford is the center of Pluton
ium operations, while Oak Ridge
turns out uranium both key ma
terials for atomic bombs.
The senate acted to modify the
curbs on AEC spending after an
appeal from McMahon which
brought support from two key re
publicans on the Joint committee
Senators Hlckenlooper tlowa) and
MtlliMn (ColO).
Hickenlooper, an arch critic of
AEC Chairman David E. Lillienthal
and his policies, called the measure
offered by McMahon of "unique Im
portance to the atomic program."

bureau and congress of commission
projects under certain conditions.
McMahon said the restrictions
would have the effect of slowing
down vital commission projects.
His bill, which the senate ap
proved by voice vote, provides that
the curbs should not apply with
respect to technical and production
facilities 1) If the AEC certifies
to the budget director that immedi
ate construction or Immediate con
tinuation of construction is neces
sary to national defense, and i2
If the budget director agrees that
such certification is justified.

Devaluation
Poses Tough
West Problem
WASHINGTON. Oct. 1 (fy-Rrp.
Russell Mark (R-Washt predlrled
today that foreign currency devalu
ation will have an advene effect on
West Coast lumber, fish and pulp
paper Industries.
Mark said It still Is too early to
appraise the full effect of devalua
lion. But he added, It probably will
mean Increased exports from Can
ada. I'ndfTaelllitf
Canada, he told a reporter, already
is able to undersell United States
lumber producers bccaue of lower
wane rales. With a 10 per rent
devaluation of the Canadian dollar,
he said, the costs of production will
be cut another 10 per cent. .
Canadian shipments to the East
ern seaboard, he added, ran be
made at saving of another 3 per
rent over U. S. transportation costs
from the West Coast.
Inroads
Therefore, he said. West Coast
lumber producers are facing the
threat of Canadian Inroads Into
their world markets and Increased
Imports of Canadian lumber Into
the United Blatca becalm of lower
prices.
Mark aimitealrd that a partial
answer mlglil lie In restoration of
tariffs on imparls from Canada.
