British Savants Cease
Atom Control Efforts
BY the Associated Press

LONDON, July 16-The Council
of the Atomic Scientists Association
announced tonight that it has given
up hope of international control OF
the atom while the cold war con-
tinues between Russia and the West
The association, organized in early
1916, has Britains top nuclear
physicists, including Prof. M. E
Oliphant, among its members.
The Councils views were set forth
in a statement issued tonight which
said:
Seeing no hope of an early agree
ment regarding the atomic bomb
and other weapons of mass destruc-
ton, it believes that the solution
can now be sought only through the
constant promotion of all measures
designed to make war less likely
and to reach a settlement between
East and West.
1T does not believe that through
the development of atomic weapons
alone any nation is likely to be able
to secure quick victory over a great
power with widely dispersed indus
tries; any conflict would be long
and costly struggle in which Western
Europe is likely to be a battlefield
and in that case would suffer serious
devastation.

0|eo Bill in Senate
By Chalmers M. Roberts

The coming special session OF
Congress will see a renewal of the

peal bill. it became clear today.
: Senator Fulbright. Democrat, OF
+. Arkansas the leading Senate sponsor
{ of the bill, told The Star today he
! will press to bring the measure to
; the Senate floor during the session
The bill won two test votes in the

the floor by one of the votes on a
calendar call.
Thus it appears that the measure

by President Truman among the

:on the Republican-controlled Con-
gress to pass during the summer
session.
e Called For in Democratic Platform.
The Democratic platform speclfl-
eally calls for repeal of the taxes,
Including the 10-cent-a-p pound levy
on colored margarine and the heavy
license fees that restrict its sale.
THE Republican platform did not
mention the subject.
~ Senator Fulbright said today the
Republicans would not be able to
filibuster against the bill at length
this time since there is no definite
date set on which the session Will
end.
They can't keep it up continu-
cusly," he said.
Both test votes in the Senate. as
well as the 2-to-1 approval in the
House, were won by q combination
i, of almost solid Democratic votes and
Republican members from the more
urban areas of the nation.
z Tangled in Civil Rights Issue.
= The measure may become tangled
in the civil rights issue, however,
since its Republican foes from the
dairy States declared repeatedly
last month they would attach civil
rights to the bill once it reached
the floor Senator LANCER, Republl-
can of North Dakota, did offer such
a measure on the one occasion the
bill was considered but his rider
never came to vote.
The Senate Republican Policy
Committee, headed by Senator Taft
of Ohio. never put the margarine
bill on it's must" list although the
Senate Finance Committee had
unanimously approved the measure

Special Session Will Cost
$4,000 for Travel Expense
-AP Wirephoto via radio from Rome

adjournment resolution, is not con-
sidered sine die.
Exactly the same thing happened
last fall when President Truman
recalled Congress and it met from
November II until December 10
That was known as special" ses-
sion but it went down in the books
as just part of the first session OF
the Eightieth Congress. The second
session began on January 6 of this
year at the call of the Republican
leadership, in line with the pro-
vision of the Constitution which
says Congress shall meet at least
once year land such meeting
shall begin at noon on the third
day of January unless they shall
by law appoint a different day
The different day was appointed
through the power given the lead
erShip to return Congress when it
saw fit.
Appropriations Approved.
Because of this situation there
was some consideration last year
at the special session whether OF
not members were entitled to the
mileage payments. These payments
were authorized many years age
for each new session of Congress
and would seem to apply only to
each differently numbered session
However, both the Senate and House
approved the opriation to pay
mileage to their members and there
seems little doubt that. the prece-
dent having been established, the
same thing will happen this year
The practice of adjournment sub
ject to the call of the majority
leadership has grown out of the
split control of the Government
with one party in control of Con-
gress and another of the White
House. The President, of course
is specifically authorized by the
Constitution to call the Congress
into session whenever he sees fit
the power he has just used as he
did last fall
