scientist who was dismissed from

said he never was a Communist
and had never disclosed secret
atomic informant ton to any un-
authorized person, particularly So
Wet officials he knew in California
IN 1914.
Said He Would Refuse Answers.
Before going into the committee
room, DR.. Kamen had issued state
ment declaring he would cooperate
fully with the committee by answer
ing all questions at public hearings
but that he would refuse to do so
at "any secret proceedings"
When he emerged early this aft
ernoon. he disclosed he had changed
his mind. principally because he
cOuld get no assurance from the
committee that he would be called
to testify at an open hearing. al
though he demanded that oppor-
tunity.

Us Just Around the Corner
Doubts Russiu Will
Make Berlin FinoI
Issue in Germany
BY the Associated Press

BERLIN, Sept. 14.-Gen. Lucius
D. Clay said today: Il don't
think war is just around the
corner"
The United States military COVER
nor made the statement to Amer
lean newsmen who came to Berlin
on a special Air Force flight from
the United States to view the
British American air lift operation
supplying Soviet -blockaded Western
Berlin.
Gen. Clay added that he doubted
the Russians will make Berlin the
final issue on the entire German
problem"
The American commander pre-
dicted that before any forceful
actions were attempted to break
the S2-day-old Soviet blockade, the
United States would exhaust "all
other means at its disposal to reach
agreement.
Gen. Clay refused to discuss
whether bringing the Berlin ques-
ton before a Council of Foreign
Ministers would mean negotiation
under duress."
He left the impression, however
that the United States at least would
not be prepared to discuss any other
larger German issues with the Rus
slams at such a conference before
the blockade was lifted.

1.-Two American air lift pilots
bailed out over the Soviet zone
early today and have not been
heard from since.
Air Force headquarters said they
were ferrying a CAT, laden with
food, from Wiesbaden to Berlin,
when the pilot radioed at 4:20 am.
that their engines had failed and the
ship was losing altitude.
The message said the crew was
abandoning ship in the vicinity of
Langensalza, about 20 miles inside
the Russian zone. 1t said one mo-
tor had cut out and the other had
begun to quit.
Nine Americans have died in three
fatal crashes since the air lift over
