 Iron Curtain

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10-lR-The Commerce Department announced a voluntary" plan today to keep important, though non-secret, American technical information from going out to Russia and her satellites.
 While iron curtain countries were not mentioned in the announce ment the aim was obvious.
 Under the plan, persons or firms thinking of exporting advanced technical data which may be im- portant to national security" are asked to hold off until they get an official opinion" from the depart ment on the desirability of trans hitting the data.
 Simultaneously, the department slapped another 60 classes of highly strategic" goods under rigid export license control to prevent reshipment from original destina- tions to the Soviet bloc.
 Russia and her satellites have been banned since March, 1948, from getting direct from the US. industrial goods which might add to their war potential.
 The government is now seeking to tlock chances of such goods get ting to the iron curtain sector in roundabout way by re-shipments from such spots as Communist China, other Asiatic points, or Latin America.
