ather Of Ak Victim
To Be Questioned

By the Associated Press
PONTIAC, Mich, Oct. 22.-An-
drew Shevchenko, 10, native of Rus
sia, was scheduled to undergo "in-
tensive questioning" today in con-
meet with the ax-slaying of his
daughter, Mrs. Lydia Thompson.
Sheriff Edward K. Thomas said
the questioning would start after
the slain woman's funeral today.
The sheriff said Shevchenko may
know why his daughter wanted to
carry the .32-caliber revolver she
purchased last summer. The sheriff
disclosed Saturday that a letter
found in the woman's palatial home
near here said her life had been
threatened. He said the letter,
written in Russian, named the per-
son she said had threatened her,
but he did not make the name
public. He did say, however, that
the person was not her husband.
Whether Shevchenko, who has
not been arrested. will be detained
as a witness will depend on the
outcome of the initial inquiry, the
sheriff said.
Meanwhile, Prosecutor Donald C.

posit box in Detroit bank held

Senate Moves 10 End
Fight Of Committees
Over Atomic Control
BY the Associated Press.

| ~ litE hSSOSiattI IIcss.
Congress moved today to solve
its internal squabbles over han
ding legislation on the domestic
use and control of atomic energy
The Senate arranged to take up
the proposal of Senator Mcmahon
Democrat. of Connecticut to create
a special committee of five Demo
Gratis and four Republicans to con-
slider all atomic legislation.
It's approval would end the argu-
ment among the Senate's Military
Affairs, Foreign Relations and other
committees wanting the assignment
The argument has delayed progress
in formulating atomic policy and
there was every indication the Nc
Mahon bill would pass.
Meanwhile, Congress had a new
proposal on the international as
pect of atomic force. Representa-
tive Voorhis. Democrat, of Cali
fornia, suggested the United States
share It's knowledge with nations
willing to share their own weapon
secrets.
Mcmahon Considered Chairman.
THE agreement would be that
every nation entering into it would
open up every nook and Granny of
it's land" Mr.. Voorhis said in a
statement to the House Military Af-
fairs Committee. ito an interna-
tional body of scientists and others
commissioned by all the nations to
perform the task of preventing
mankind from plunging itself into
destruction"
There has been lively interest
shown by various Senators in the
chance of sitting on such a his
Joric committee as would pass on
momentous matters ushered in by
the atomic age.
Senator Mcclellan, Democrat, of
Tennessee as presiding officer would
make the appointments to the
special Senate group once it is estab-
lished. Advance indications were
that Senator Mcmahon might be
chairman. Other Democrats con-
sidered in the running for member
ship include Senators Downey of
California, Green of Rhode Island,
Mcclellan of Arkansas, Fulbright of
Arkansas and Hoey of North Caro-
lima. Likely Republicans include:
Senators Vandenberg of Michigan
Millikin of Colorado and Austin OF
Vermont.
Considering House Bill.
Both the House and Senate Mill
tary Affairs Committees have bills
to create an atomic energy COM
mission, an agency with ALIEN
bracing powers over the control
use and development of atomic
energy within the United States.
The Senate bill never has gotten
anywhere due to the argument
there over which committee should
| handle it.
The House committee now is con-
sidering its own bill in secret but in
earlier open sessions there was some
objection to the far-reaching extent
of the commissions powers.
