considering elevating o. Mas
Gardner from Undersecretary ot
the Treasury to chairman of the
new domestic Atom Contro
Commission.

the appointments of former Ambas-
sador Joseph P. Kennedy, iva
Chairman David E. Lilienthal and
DR.. Irving Lsngmuir. one of those
who aided in the development of

dent also is thinking over the
names of half dozen other outstand-
ing citizens as possible appointees
to the five-member commission and

trative staff.
Commission members and the
manager will receive $4,000 annual
salaries, with the chairman getting
s17,500 Their appointments would
be subject to Senate confirmation

sion which will have the widest sort
of authority over the development
of atomic energy in this country.
His nomina ton as Treasury Under
secretary was approved unanimously
by the Senate

DR.. Langmuir, representing scien-
fists who worked on the bomb. testi-
fed before the Senate Atomic En-
ergy Committee last year to the evi-
dent satisfaction of most members.
DR.. Langmuir told the committee
the United States should hold on
to its atomic energy secrets until
a satisfactory system of world Sc
cuTlty is achieved.
He forecast that Russia will pro-
duce an atomic bomb within three
years. adding that the Soviets then
might accumulate such weapons
faster than the United States if
world controls are not imposed.
Mr.. Lilienthal was a member of
the committee of experts which
drafted State Department report

ONE lew ANGLE
tBy Associu.rd Press,
