World Disarmament
Burden Would Fall
On U. n. Military
By the Associated Press

NEW YORK, Oct. 30.-If Russia's
proposal for universal disarmament
should be accepted by the world,
the task of drafting complete plan
would fall on the United Nations
Military Staff Committee which,
coincidentally, is charged with set
ting up an international army to
maintain peace.
The committee, an arm OF the
Security Council, is composed of
the chiefs of staff of the United
States, Russia, Great Britain,
France and China.
The charter provides that this
group shall advise the Council on
questions relating to "the regula-
ton of ornaments and possible dis
armament"
Few Results in Months.
During the past eight months OF
sessions the committee has worked
without notable results on the pre-
Hminary plan for its global police
force.
While Foreign Minister Molotov
did not discuss this point specifically
in his address to the Assembly, per-
sons close to the committee con-
slider that his proposal for universal
abolition of armamentS by all ma
tions would mean the United Ma
tions itself would have air, land and
sea contingents to maintain peace
and security.
With all nations disarmed it was
apparent that these forces need not
be large.
However, there appeared to be
little doubt that some forces would
be necessary to check on possible
violations and put down any attempt
of aggression on the part OF
nation
The Russian stand in the COM
mittee to date has been one OF hesI
itation over the global force. with
the principal Soviet proposal CEN
tered around a demand for clarif1-
cation of the purposes of such con-
tingents.
Small Nations May Back Plan.
Some military men took the view
that the Soviet disarmament plan
would draw the immediate support
of many of the small nations which
find that the maintenance of mill
tary forces is a serious drain on
the treasury. With their big neigh
hors stripped of arms these small
countries could feel secure without
the tremendous outlay for arms.
Proponents of disarmament could
strengthen their arguments before
these countries by citing the U. N.
as a potential reservoir Of military
power should the occasion arise.
Major problems to be worked out,
military experts agreed, would be
a definition of how many troops a
nation should allocate to U. N,
where they should be stationed, and
under what conditions such con-
tingents could be maintained within
a member nation pledged to COM
plete disarmament.

sentatiyes.
There is no doubt the COP here is
more encouraged than it has been
in years. The largest turnout for a
political meeting in Providence oc-
Cured Monday night, when former
Gov. Harold F. Stassen of Minnesota
came here to speak for the Repub-
lican ticket.
Veterans Seek House Seat.
Two war veterans are Republican
candidates for the House-Raymond
A. Maillou in the first district,
against Representative Forand.
Democrat, and John J. Kelly. jr., in
the second district, against Repre-
sentative Fogarty, Democrat. Mr..
Maillou, who lives in Woonsocket.
was a navigator in the AAF. He was
shot down over Germany in 1943 and
was a prisoner until March, 1914.
Mr.. Kelly enlisted in the Marine
Corps Immediately after Pearl Har-
Dor. He was commissioned for out
standing achievement in combs
with the enemy in the South Pacif'
and was in all the major campaign
in that theater.
Mr.. Kelly is given the bette,
chance to win, although if the Dem
ocratic ticket headed by Mr.. Nc
Grath wins the Democrats are like
ly to retain both House seats.
The Democrats say Mr.. McGrath
will win with a reduced plurality.
Some place it as low as $4,000, al
though others say he will come
through with 10000 lead.
Mr. McGrath is running for the
Senate seat which has been held
for years by Senator Gerry. Who de-
clined to be a candidate to succeed
himself. While there is talk of some
of the Gerry men being shy of Mr..
McGrath, the latter was protege of
Senator Gerry, who gave him his
start in politics. 1t is understood
that Senator Gerry will come here
before the campaign ends to make
a radio speech for the McGrath
ticket.

Baruch Declares j. ).
Won't Yield Atom
Secret Without Pact
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

NEW YORK, Oct. 30.-Bernard
M. Baruch, American delegate to
the United Nations Atomic En-
ergy Commission, said last night
it would be Suicide" for the
United States to stop manufac-
turing the atom bomb unless
other nations pledged like action.
Urging formation of an interna-
tional atomic agency to prevent use
of atomic energy for war, Mr..
Baruch told the Herald Tribune
Forum There will be no surrender
of the bomb. unless and until we
know that all other countries are
prevented from doing the very thing
we would be giving up-bomb max
ing.
Are we to be the only ones to dis
arm? That way is suicide.
80 that 1t shall not be diverted
to war, it Is necessary, through an
international atomic agency, to be-
gin at the raw materials and to use
every device of control, including
licensing. inspection, accounting, op-
Grafton and management as protec-
tive measures" Mr.. Baruch asserted.
No Veto on Punishment.
when all this is agreed upon by
treaty in final form, all our know
how, stock of bombs and raw mate
rials will be turned over or disposed
of in accordance with the treaty,
which, of course, must be ratified
under the constitutional processes
Of each nation.
"Once the treaty comes to life,
there can be no veto against the
daily operations of the international
agency and no veto on swift pun
ishment of offenders.
But" Mr.. Baruch said, "this spe-
cial provision In a special treaty does
not affect the general veto rights of
the five great powers, as provided in
the Charter"
Mr.. Baruch said the United States
"has no ulterior motive" but desires
to serve the world and in so doing
serve itself. We are, as we have
been, ready to give thought to any
suggestions that seek this goal"
John NJ Hancock, associated with
Mr.. Baruch in atomic energy control,
said 'The power of inspection must
include the right of free access any
where in the world. Without free
access inspection would be meaning
less"
Ickes Indorses Baruch Plan.

engineer in charge of public works.
another associate, said I'VE are pre-
pared to disclose full information on
atomic energy once truly effective
international system Of control has
been established"
Harold L. Ickes, former Secretary
of Interior, Endorsed the Baruch
plan for international control of
atomic energy but held that the
United States ought to desist from
making atomic bombs for the time
being"
Mr.. Baruch, Mr.. Ickes said,
should be given all the elbow room
he needs" to conclude successfully
international negotiations for con-
troll of atomic energy.

Loop Bus Restoration
For Lafayette Pupils
Urged by Association

Dissatisfied members Of the La
fayette Home and School Associa-
ton today urged the Public Utilities
Commission to restore the old Chevy
Chase loop bus service SO their chill
dren could get to and from school
on time and especially at lunch time.
The loop was eliminated in re-
arrangement of routes approved by
the PUG effective october 6.
School Lacks Lunchroom.
Harry S. Wender, speaking for the
association, said the new route had
resulted in long layovers at trans
fer point which did not exist under
the loop operation He said the
transfer point on Western avenue at
Pinehurst Circle forced school chill
dren attending the Lafayette and
Blessed Sacrament Schools to cross
Western avenue four times day.
Miss Margaret Pepper, principal
of the Lafayette School, told the
commission the school had no lunch
room and the new schedule seriously
hampered the ability of children to
get home for lunch and back.
She said she had to release S.
children at 20 minutes before noon
to catch the bus home for lunch,
thus resulting in loss of school time.
Handicapped in Spelling.
Mr.. Wender told newsnien of one
pupil who has not had full period
of spelling since the new route be-
came effective.
Mr.. Wender was Joined as associa-
ton representative by Maurice
Friedman.
]. M. Heiser, speaking for the
businessmen of the Chevy Chase
area, also urged restoration Of the
loop.
The session was marked by warm
exchanges between spectators and
Chairman James H. Flanagan, over
whether suficient notice had been
given the public before the change
was ordered.

U.S.. Works on Plan to Restrict
Council Use of Veto in 3 Ways

contrary to British and small ma
ton charges made in the U. N. As
sembly, that the veto vote has not
been overworked.
Russia has employed the veto nine
times since the Security Council was
formed last January. France used
it once; America and Britain, not
at all.
First Official word of the Ameri-
can plan is expected to be given
the United Nations today by Mr..
Austin in a full dress policy speech
before the Assembly. His speech is
expected to avoid such political
issues as the Spanish question and
stick to U. N. constitutional matters.
Yesterday an American spokes-
man denied outright a report that
Britain and the United States were
working up joint veto proposals.
though he conceded they think
along similar lines.
Their thinking, 1t can be stated
authoritatively, starts from this
point: Use of the veto in the Sc
curity Council should be held down.
but this is no time to 90 about
trying to amend the basic law OF
the United Nations.
But under salvo after salvo Of
small nation charges that the veto
is wrecking the U. N.-and because
of their own dislike Of Russia's fire.
quent use of it-British and Amer
ican governments have been trying
TO figure some way short of rewrit-
ing the Charter to curb the veto's
use.
Actually, there is no way to limit
Russia's veto except as Russia wants
to limit it. For instance, each of
the Big Five would have to ratify
any change in the Charter-which
means Russia could veto any move
to discard the veto. Also, the Big
Five have to agree on all interpre-
tations of the veto. SO any one can
block the American proposals.

BY the Assoeioisd Press

NEW YORK, Oct. 30.-The United
States, stunning any show of gang
ing up with BritairH against Russia,
is working out detailed plan for
restricting use of the veto in the
United Nations Security Council in
at least three different ways, it was
learned last night.
Major proposals are:
/. To broaden an existing rule
against letting any Big Five power
sit in judgment on Council deci-
sions arising from charges against
itself. (The U. N. Charter allows
any one of the five to veto use of
force against itself but not to vote
on nonforce measures)
2. To allow any of the Big Five
voluntarily to abstain from voting
without having the failure to vote
counted as Q veto, as it might be
now.
3. To classify as fully as possible
Security Council decisions which
are "procedural" (requiring only
majority vote 1or declSlonJ ana
those which are substantive" IRE
quiring concurrence of the Big Five,
that is, the veto .system). Lack of
agreement on this has cost the
Council many hot hours of debate.
While presumably subject to last
minute change, the plan will be
placed informally before the Rus
sian, British, French and Chinese
delegations here soon, probably by
American Chief Delegate Warren
r. Austin. Depending on Big Five
reaction, it probably will then be
brought up, perhaps in modified
form, in the General Assembly COM
mittee handling U. N. political and
security issues.
OF all issues it is currently the
hottest. Even Prime Minister Stain
poured on new fuel in his statement
in Moscow last night when he said,

Of approximately $50 a 00-pound
bale.
The liquidation of a single long
account, In which a New Orleans
trader was reputed to have held con-
tracts for hundreds of thousands OF
bales, was held of1icially responsible
for the original cotton break.
Thomas Jordan, who earlier had
made millions in the New Orleans
cotton market, has refused either to
confirm or deny that he was the
trader concerned.
Jordan's Seat to be Sold.
Arrangements were being made in
New York today for the sale of Mr.
Jordan's seat on the New York Stock
Exchange for $64, 600.
After all exchanges were closed on

the liquidation of the single long ac-
count-more than 1000 bales then
remaining unsold-the cotton mar

However, after another closing

ers to catch up with their work. the
market suddenly started another
tumble.
Ofhcial or quotable reasons for this
drop have been conspicuous by their
absence. One reason advanced for
this unusual silence by brokers was
that a Congressional Investigation

The effect of the sharp price
breaks has been profound, particu.
larly in the South.
No Warning of Action.
The floor of the New York Cottor
Exchange was thrown into milling
confusion by today's sudden suspen'
sion. 1t came without advanc,
warning. Even some exchange on
cials had not been informed ant
were unable to give reporters ar
immediate reason for the action.

members Of the New York Exchange
expected anything other than tina
trading would be resumed at 10 a m

Managers into a hurried huddle t,

The suspension called an effectiv
halt to trading in cotton for futur,

of so-called spot" cotton.
Spot Centers.
That means cotton which is balet

Russia's attitude toward the United

Veto-Success of the campaign to
abolish it would mean in practice

is the cornerstone of the organiza-
ton"
Atomic control-The American
plan by which the United States
would give up the bomb only after
international safeguards are estab-
lished has a certain degree of self
ishness" and is based on the desire
to secure for the United States
monopolist possession of the atomic

greatest obstacle to the realization

Soviet Union against which they, in
their impotent rage. would be pre-
pared to unchain all dogs"
Troops Cause Uneasiness.
Troops abroad-The presence of
troops in other than former enemy

gives rise to serious uneasiness
among the people and world public
opinion"
Security Council--Its refusal to
act against Franco Spain was a
gross error which is bound to un-

provide a measure of its ability to
succeed.
Comments Are Varied.
The vigor of Mr.. Molotov's attack
on Mr.. Baruch and Mr.. Churchill
and his blunt denunciation of all
the things in the United Nations
to which Russia is opposed appar-
emily caught some delegations off
guard.
Comments on the speech ranged
from tough" and aggressive" to
constructive" Mr.. Austin declared
it was tough and smart" L. D. Will
gress, Canadian Ambassador to Mos
COW, described it as aggressive"
and said it was the "cleverest
speech Molotov ever made"
British diplomats said it was dis
appointing "just when we were
about to enter a new phase of CO.
operation" but Polish Foreign Min
lister Wincenty Rzymowski described
it as clear and impressive"
A member of the Netherlands
delegation reported that he found

atmosphere" which he considered
the Russians had been building up
during the opening days OF the
veek-old session.

National Fire Prevention
week, October 6 to IL, comes
at an especially appropriate
time from the standpoint of ru-
raj fire control in Montana, &C
cording to Ralph E. Bodley,
state coordinator of the Mon
tana Rural Fire Fighters serv-
ice.
Early fall is the time of year
when the hazards of field and
range fires are particularly ser
ious, Bodley said. At this time
of year old weed growth and
other vegetative materia! is
dried out and easily ignited:
stubble fields can readily be
touched off; range grass is tin
der dry.
Besides taking extraordinary
precautions to prevent such
fires from starting, Bodley
urges farmers and rancherS to
take this opportunity to pro-
tect their buildings, hay stacks
and equipment by blowing fire
guards. A barren strip of soil
around such objects, he said,
will go far in saving them
should a stubble field or range
grass fire get out of control.
