 Attlee said India,s "complete freedom has been there for the taking" ever since Sir Stafford Cripps' mission in 1942.
 ''The only obstacle, so far a very grave obstacle, has been the failure of the Indian communities to agree among themselves" he said.
 Attlee emphasized that Britain seeks "a world in which small as well as large nations will be able to live in security. We seek a world in which the rule of law will pre- vail. We seek world of social justice"
 May Give Russia Bombs
 The diplomatic correspondent of the Daily Sketch suggested that the two chiefs of state may discuss proposal to give Russia some manufactured atomic bombs as a gesture of good faith. This also might satisfy Americans who wished to keep construction methods se- cret, the correspondent said.
 These sources believed that an- other Big Three meeting-with Premier Stalin joining MT. Truman and Attlee-will be held very soon, to be followed by a five-power con- ference including France and China.
 Attlee will take off for Washing ton tonight following his address at the Lord Mayors luncheon in London today. He will be a house guest at the White House Satur- day and Sunday, then make his headquarters at the British embassy turing his formal discussions with MT. Truman.

 Guy Eden, diplomatic correspond mt Of the Daily Express, said that n event MT. Truman and Attlee do | iecide to turn over atomic bomb | ecrets to the UNO, the Security | >ouncil would take custody of all cientific data and all actual bombs 'laced at the disposal of the organ zation.
 '"The actual use of the bombs gainst an aggressor would be in he hands of the military staffs committee, representing the armed orces of the Big Five" Eden Wrote.
 UNO Must Have Strength
 Tt therefore is argued that for
 time at any rate, only the five reat powers need share the se- rets. A conference of representa- Ives of these governments would 2 able to make all necessary lans."
 Eden said, however, that both IT. Truman and Attlee believe the NO must be more than a paper" ody before atomic bomb secrets an be entrusted to it. The News Chronicle suggested lat the possibility of Stalin joining le Truman-Attlee talks should not ruled out, pointing out that of- cial British circles had reason to now that Stalin is no till. h Those who know Washington, lid the paper, "can also think of 3 reason except some desire for ,curity of very unusual kind hich would induce President Tru- an and MT.
