THURSDAY. AUGUST 25, 1955 HERALD AND NEWS, KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON PAGE TWENTY-NINE Solons Urge Peace Uses For H-Bomb wAcniKuiuN t.f -Two mem bers of the Senate-Housa Atomic Energy Committee are urging the Atomic Energy Commission to speed Wurk on harnessing the H bomb or peacelnl purposes. Sen. Anderson (D-NM), commit' tee chairman, and Rep. Price (D III), her.d ol lis Research and Development Mibcoinmittee, 'said yesterday tiiey believe the Geneva atoms-for-peace conference should give impetus to this project. They were part of a committee delegation winch returned yester day from the conference. Anderson s;id, "We know we are in a race tor this type of de velopment." and added there were clear indications at Geneva that Russia, Great Britain and India also were working at the problem. He said "only a handful" ot American scientists are assigned to this research. He suggested the number be increased. Price said the announcement of hitherto secret programs looking toward a controlled thermonuclear (hydrogen) reaction was "the most important event" at the Geneva meeting. "The mere fact that this CAmcr lean) program has been declassi fied should speed up research on it," he said, adding it had been so deeply secret many AEC scientists did not even know of It. However, Rep. Hinshaw (R- Calif). another committee mem ber who was at Geneva, said he felt U.S. progress on this work had been "as fast as could be cxnect- ed" considering the extreme diffi culties. AEC Chairman Lewis L. Strauss disclosed at Geneva that this coun try had been engaged in a "mod crate program" of research in harnessing the H-bomb and had made some progress. Anderson, Price and Hinshaw agreed that the Geneva parley had shown Russia is not ahead of the United States in peacetime develop ment of the atom. Rep. Holifield (D-Califi, another committee member who attended! the Geneva meeting, said the firm, impression is that American scien-i tists learned nothing new from a multitude of papers presented at the meeting but that Russian ex-! perts probably acquired fresh tech nical data.

Action Against Railroad Asked MEDFORD W The U. S. Jus tice Department was asked Tues day to take action against the Southern Pacific Railroad because of its suspension of passenger serv ice between Portland and Ashland. State Sen. Philip B. Lowry of Medford made the request, con tending that abandonment of serv ice was a "deliberate, openly fla grant and continuing violation" of an 1866 act of Congress. He said the act specified the route as a condition for enfranchis ing the railroad and for granting federal lands as right-of-way. Lowry, in a letter to Atty. Gen. Brownell, asked that a suit be filed to compel the railroad to --surae service.
