BONN, Germany. Nov. 12.--
West German politicians waited
anxiously tonight to hear from
Secretary of State Acheson what
the future holds for their Hedging
republic.
Mr.. Acheson will visit President
Theodor Heuss and Chancellor
Konrad Adenauer in this capital
city tomorrow. Black, red and
gold flags of the Western repub-
lie festooned the city in honor of
the first visit by an official of
cabinet rank from the occupation
powers. -t
So far the Germans were as
much in the dark as the rest of
the world concerning the decisions
reached by the foreign ministers
Of the United States, France and
Britain at their Paris conference
ending last Friday.
Answers to Questions Sought.
The Germans would like to
know:
Is dismantling of their factories
to stop?
Is the West German Republic
to have foreign minister like the
East Communist Republic?
What wider powers of sel-rule
will be given?
What evidence of peaceful in
tentions do the occupation powers
want from the Bonn government? !?
Will the Western Germans be
rearmed to add to the defense
forces or Western Europe?
These are just some of the
questions running through the
minds Of politicians here. Many
rumors attempt to answer the
questions.
Some newspapers sounded q
note of alarm at rumors that the
Western powers may want to re-
build German army. Stuttgarter

BY the Associated Press

VIENNA, Nov. IL. 49, Senator
Thomas, Democrat of Oklahoma,
said today one European country
has damaged its prospects OF get
ting more Marshall Plan aid by
snubbing the Senate Appropria-
tions Subcommittee.
The Senator. who is chairman
of the subcommittee, did not name
the country. but members Of his
party said he meant Sweden.
Told that reporters drew the in
ference he was referring to Swe-
den, Senator Thomas said:
"If that is the conclusion they
drew it is perfectly all right with
me. I will not. however. go any
further than my original state
ment. Everyone in my party knows
to which country am referring" !"

committee visited one country
the government officials acted as

country will be over my protest.

and they grabbed it-now they

Sweden had received 5000 900

October. About half the shipments
to Sweden were petroleum and pc

cluded machinery, iron, steel,
chemicals and fibers.
Criticism Supported.

tigating how aid funds are spent.
has visited Belgium, Norway, Swe-

A member of the group. who
asked that his name not be used,
said: 1--WE have discussed at great
length the wonderful receptions
we were given in Brussels, Oslor

We have not been able to say any

PANYUSHKIN WALKS OUT at
U. NJ. Refusing to Answer Tito
Charges. Page AS
BY the Associated Press

LAKE SUCCESS, Nov. Ia
Andrei Y. Vishinsky insisted to-
day that the Soviet Union offered
two years ago to open wide its
doors to international atomic
control and inspection-and the
offer still stands.
The Soviet foreign minister
firmly told the Special Political
Committee of the u N. Assem-
bly,, however, that Russia never
would give up one bit of its soil
to ownership by any international
commission.
Mr.. Vishinsky made it clear
the Russians and the Western
powers speak a different language
when they talk of the meaning of
control. That is the nub of the
atomic problem here.
The Russians have proposed
periodic inspection of atomic IA
cilities.. The West has turned this
down, saying that inspection must
be continuous, even to the point
of inspection from the air to de-
termine whether any illegal plants
are being built.
Bomb Use Criticized.
Tn roundup speech on the
Soviet position on atomic energy.
Mr.. Vishinsky also criticized
American use of the atomic bomb
against the japanese cities of Ma
gasaki and Hiroshima, without
naming the cities.
In saying that the Russians are
willing to open up for atomic in
spection and control, Mr.. Vishin-
sky referred to the Soviet proposal
for an International Atomic Com
mission presented June II, 1947.
The Russian plan was debated
thoroughly in the U. N. Atomic
Energy Commission and was
turned down. 1t went on up to
the Assembly by way of Soviet
proposals for a control system and
was defeated there.
Mr.. Vishinsky said the Soviet
plan has the strongest provisions
for control. The Western plan. he.
argued, does not provide for pro-
hibition of the atomic bomb and
for control. The Western plan has
been approved by the General AS
sembly, 10 votes to 6.

to carry out its work on Soviet
territory" he said: He asked how
could anyone say the Soviet will
not open up it's territory.
This is, to put it very mildly.

said.

Answering the statement yes
terday by American Assistant
Secretary of State John Kicker
son that the West considers the
Soviet proposals inadequate and
without provision for sufficient
inspection, Mr.. Vishinsky said
this reasoning is erroneous.
Gesturing as usual and shaking
his head, the Soviet foreign min
listers said:
There is no warrant for his
stating that we refuse to open
up our territory for inspection.
We open our doors wide to
control"
Mr.. Vishinsky said that when
the West speaks of control it
means management of the atomic
facilities.
