TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 7. 1954' HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS, OREGON PAGE THREE Eisenhower Proposes New World Atomic Agency By JOHN M. HIGHTOWER WASHINGTON W President Elsenhower held the door open to day for Soviet cooperation in a new Allied undertaking to spread Peaceful benefits of atomic energy to many lands. A diplomatic authority said Rus sia's behavior toward the United States and particularly the Krem lin's rejection of a previous Eisen hower proposal that it Join in an international atomic pool appeared Jo rule .out any move to join the latest project. Nevertheless, the decision an nounced by the President yester day to go ahead without Russia on nn international atomic agency plan would appear to put the Soviet somewhat on the spot since they they have so far indicated no in terest in sharing their own atomic energy know-how and resources with anybody else. AGENCY What Eisenhower disclosed was that the United States government has agreed with other nations to set up an agency to "foster the growth and spread of new atomic technology for peacelul use." The President did not name the coun- Camp Fire Girls Tour Lava Beds t'HILOQUIN The Lava Beds National Monument and the Tule lake Wildlife Refuge were the des tinations, Wednesday, August 25, when three carloads. of Camp Fire Girls left at 7 o'clock in the morn ing for an all day excursion. The girls, fifth through eighth graders with three Blue Bird sisters, toured the museum, learned the history of the area, and were guid ed through Catacomb, Sentinel, and Skull Caves and the Merrill Ice Cave by Ranger Thornton who answered all the queries put by the girls. It was the first lantern trip many of the girls had ever made, and the first time they had ever been 175 feet under ground, or walked on a river of ice in a cave. They were shown the oper ation of the radio setup between Echonchin Lookout and the ran ger's pickup, had scenes of the Modoc Indian War of 1872 73 pointed out, and learned some of the different forms that lava takes. Making the trip were Doris and Agatha DiUlio, Linda Mendenhall, Linda Oates, Donna and Diane Kircher, Norma Souers. Sharon Wilder. Darla Brewer, Helen Hes cock. Phyllis and Barbara Sisson, Sheila Riddle, Linda Cline, Mary O'Neill, Donna Robinson, Sally Ra vizza, Cherry and Micki Jo Wolff, with leaders, Mrs. Dwight Kircher, Mrs. Victor Sisson, and Mrs. Ger ald Wolff. tries, but an aide at the Summer White House in Denver said they are Britain, France, Canada, South Africa and Australia. Eisenhower expressed hope that "no nation will long stand aloof" from the enterprise. This seemed clearly to keep the door open for Russian cooperation. For the time being, the PresI deut made clear, the project aims to provide benefits for friendly, free nations. He said the intent of the nations joining in the under taking is to share atomic tech nology "with others of good will." NEGOTIATIONS Other non-Communist countries may join the project shortly. It is known that there have been nego tiations with Belgium, which con trols one of the world's great uranium producing areas In the Belgian Congo. South Africa and Australia are in the project as producing countries. The United States, Britain and Canada are in as countries with atomic industry and France as one with skill in atomic research and development. Eisenhower spoke to the nation by radio and television in connec tion with ground-breaking cere monies for the nation's first atomic power generation plant, near Pitts burgh. The six-nation agreement which the President disclosed is an out growth of a proposition he made to the United Nations last Dec. 8, but with substantial modifica tions. In announcing the earlier propos al, Eisenhower said the United States was willing to contribute atomic material to a pool in a joint undertaking with other atom ic powers specifically including Russia. EARLIER PROPOSAL Negotiations were held with Rus sia on the earlier proposal, but the Soviet insisted on two points which this country considered hopelessly unacceptable: (I) that Red China would join in formal talks to create the pool, and (2) that the United States should, as a first step, join in outlawing the use of atomic weapons. The President's new plan pri marily can achieve two things: It can demonstrate America's inter est in atomic developments for peace to build up power sources in power-short areas. Also, it can provide a practical enterprise in which the United States and Its principal allies work tcgether to create something new and better In the world. . , Eisenhower said, "Atomic mater lal for projects sponsored by this agency will be set aside for that purpose." The United States is going ahead with the atomic pool under the authority of the new atomic energy law the President signed a week ago. That law permits sharing of certain atomic secrets with allies. 1 Mf fat IW W jj Nationalists Bombard Reds TAIPEH, Formosa VPi Chinese Nationalist warplanes today bomb ed concentrations or Communist junks along the China coast, the Defense Ministry announced. There was no official Indication whether the Reds were massing an Invasion fleet for an attack on Quemoy. Some sources pointed out that there always are many junks along the mainland coast. Quemoy, Nationalist island Just off Amoy opposite Formosa, has been under Intermittent Commu nist artillery attack since Friday, when the Reds bombarded it for five hours. Nationalist planes and warships, meanwhile, continued pounding Red artillery batteries within range of Quemoy in an effort to silence the Communist guns, the ministry announced. It was the second consecutive day that warships have shelled Amoy, big island base seven miles from Quemoy. Other attacks were aimed at Wuyu and nearby small islands from which the Reds have fired at Quemoy. There were new exchanges of artillery fire between Quemoy's de fenders and the Communists In the night, the announcement said. VETERINARIAN DR. JOHN H.

IjPI A historic special session of the Mississippi Legislature was called today to lav the foundation for dodging the U.S. Supreme Court decision outlawing racial segregation in public schools. The key proposal was a consti tutional amendment empowering the Legislature to abolish public schools. It provides two methods: 1. Statewide, by a two-thirds vote of the Legislature. 2. Local option, with individual counties and school districts being allowed to abolish their public schools and set up private sys tems. Leaders of the Legal Education al Advisory Committee said the amendment would be introduced and sent to the constitution com mittees of each house as any other amendment would be handled. The committee is composed of most important state officials. The LEAO rejected the Idea of asking each house to go into com mittee of the whole "to consider the amendment as soon as it was introduced." Fear of charges of "steanvroller" convinced the LEAC the amendment should go through the usual process. The session was expected to last about six weeks, depending main ly on the amount of opposition that pops up to the constitutional amendment.
