BRITISH WANT A-B0MB5 AZ PART
 ABC AGREEMENT

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5- -lR = Britain has proposed that 1t be given a supply of atomic bombs to be stored in the British Isles as part of a new American-British- Canadian partnership agreement on atomic energy.
 It was learned today that this proposal was made last month as a British addition to other provisions of the proposed agreement.
 When it was advanced, repre- sentatives of the three powers had reached general understanding on other provisions.
 In consequence, it now appears that CD the British request Tor bombs may become the point on which the whole partnership pro- ject will stand or fall and (2) ef- forts to reach agreement will re- quire longer than previously estl- mated by American authorities

NEW CUSTODY. FOR FEDERAL. BLDG. ASKED.
Grand Jury Wants New Jail, New Elevators, Also
 Urges Addition 10 Bldg.

A recommendation that the custody of the Federal and Terri tor.al Building be taken from Post master Crystal Jenne and put in the hands of an operating engi- neer, is made by the Federal grand jury as it concluded a two-day ses- sion yesterday.
 The jury, composed of nine women and 12 men, also stated that while they found the jail clean and orderly that it probably was a fire hazard and not adapt atle for jail purposes. They strongly recommended that a new jail be built and that the present anti- quated structure be turned into a Territorial museum.
 Fne body returned three true bills regarding three cases, after hearing eleven witnesses, the lightest job grand jury has had in this district for years.
 They took time to tour both Fed eral buildings carefully, setting their findings down in a six-point recommendation addressed to Fed eral Judge George w. Folta.
 NO REFLECTION
 They wanted it known, however, their recommendations were lin no way" a reflection against those in charge of the Federal Building and jail, but rather, 'the grand jury wishes to extend it's congratu- lations to the principals involved"
 Built by the Treasury Depart- ment less than 20 years ago, the building went under the Federal Works Agency, and all postmasters whose offices were in such buildings were made agents" sin control. The General Services Administra- ton, created this fall, now is in control of such cuildings.
 The operating engineer was re- commended by the jury to be under jurisdiction of the Community Service Facilities, portion of the GSA.
 Another important recommenda- tion made was that. i've strongly urge and recommend that the serv- ices of a psychiatrist, MD, be made available to the law enforcing offi- cers of this judicial division.'

GOLD SNAP IN pA(. NORTHWEST
 NOW EASING UP
(By the Associated Press)

The cold snap which arrived in the Pacific Northwest on New Years Day began easing up today, bringing hope to several thousand idled lumber workers and hard pressed highway crews.
 The Wea her Bureau forecast warmer temperatures today and tomorrow, with snow turning to rain in western Oregon and Wash ington. The eastern parts of the states, whese the thermometer plummeted to as low as p degrees below zero ihis morning, will get relatively warmer.
 The encouraging forecast came as scores of lumber operations, closed by litter weather, added thousands td the Pacific north vests unemployment rolls.
 All the logging camps on Wash ington's north Olympic peninsula were shut by snow, throwing 1,500 men out of work. Three shingle mills and several sawmills there were down. too.
 Many schools, most of them rural, remained closed today, despite the promise of improved weather.

STORMS AND COLD CAUSE
 WIDE DAMAGE
Frost, Flood Threats Con. tinues as Cold Air
 Moves Eastward
(Rv the Associated Press)

Cold, floods, rain, sleet and snow dealt damaging blows to wide areas of the nation today from Southern California into Dixieland.
 Freezing weather has caused some damage to the multi-million dollar citrus and vegetable crops of south ern California despite all night orchard firing. Further damage is feared. although pre-dawn temper atures today were a little above yesterdays lows.
 Early southern California tenn peratures today included Blythe 27, Indio g, downtown Los Angeles 37, Palmedale on the desert 16, and Bur,ank 31. The forecast was for continued cold.
 HOMELESS BY FLOODS
 Scores of families were made homeless by floods nl parts of Illinois and Indiana. Several roads were blocked by rising creeks and rivers in western Kentucky.
 Bitter cold continued in most Of the Midwest. The arctic belt eX- tended from Montana into Iowa and some parts of the Rocky Mountains. Spencer, la, had p be- low zero today, new Iowa low for the winter season. It was IT below at Mason City, Ia.
 COLD FRONT
 A cold front along with rain, sleet and some snow spread from the Midwest eastward to the Appla- chians. Temperatures tumbled from abnormal marks to below freezing over most of the Ohio valley and southward to below Memphis.
 PROSPECT ELSEWHERE
 It looked like the end of the un- seasonable mild weather for the middle and north Atlantic states. But no severe weather appeared ln prospect for the Gulf states, Florida and the south Atlantic states.
 New records for the date were set in many eastern cities yester- day as temperatures climbed to midsummer readings. But the cold air moving from the midwest was expected to put the mercury tack to near normal marks soon.
 Washington and Norfolk, Va, had highs of Fl. It was 67 at Philadel- phia and 622 in New York City,

Second Atomic Explosion In Russia pYediCied Now
 To Take Place Saturday

LONDON, Jan. 5-lR-The man who predicted Russia's first atomic explosion said today there will be another at midnight, Greenwich Mean Time A pm. PST), Satur- day.
 Magazine Editor Kenneth de Course also said there are indica- tions that the Russians now are ahead of the U. s. lin some res poets" in atomic development.
 De Courcy told reporters he based his statement on private reports reaching him from behind the Iron Curtain. His forecast was made in written statement to the press.
 He predicted last January that the Russians would attempt an atom explosion during 1949. Presi- dent Truman announced in Septem- Der that they had succeeded.
 
 The 40-year-old editor publishes a monthly called Intelligence Di- gest,D devoted to international af- fairs. He claims to have highly placed informants in several east ern European nations.
 The explosion Saturday, he said will be of an unusual kind be- cause it will be connected with a blasting operation in connection with an irrigation project.
 This is rather disquietine statement because it suggests that the Russians are in some respects ahead of the United State of Am erica" the statement said.

JE55Up IN JAPAN ON
 ASIA TOUR
Rowing U. 5. Ambassador Talks About China,
 Formosd
By TOM LAMBERT

TOKYO, Jan. 5--4R Rowing US. Am cassador Philip C.. Jessup ar r.ved today in Japan, first stop on an Asian survey trip that will take him to Formosa--new focal point of American controversy on Far Eastern policy.
 The tall, lanky envoy said he will confer with General Mac Arthur on the matter of the big island. Formosa is the last-stand bastion of Chiang Kai-shek's Chi nese Nationalist government.
 There is increasing Republican pressure in the United States for American action-armed or other wise-to keep F'ormosa from falling to the Chinese Communists.
 Jessup would not comment on re- ports that the State Department expects the island to be taken by the Reds who have overrun Chinas mainland.
 In a brace of news conferences after his ship docked at Yokohama this morning, he reiterated that:
 l. The US. "has not abandoned and will not abandon China"
 2. The U s. has Far Eastern policy, notwithstanding Republican charges at home to the contrary.
 3. The Far East is getting prime attention from the State Depart ment.
 4. Soviet policy on China is sim liar to the old imperialism of the Czars.
 5. The US. is opposed to im- perialism
 Jessup said he will talk with Mac Arthur about peace treaty for Japan. But he didn't bring along anything specifically in the form of a draft"

(copyright, 1850, by Bell Syndicate. Incl UASHINGTON-The world has read a lot of great Christmas stor- ies, from Dickens Christmas car- ol to Haywood Broun's famous col umn, but this year we have a Christmas story of doing which ranks with any of them.
 It's the story of veterans who have fought our wars, led by the American Legion, who don't want to fight any more wars and do want to build up friendship abroad Recognizing that wars have come in cycles of about every 20 years, they have gone out to WOO Europe's children of today-who can tse our best friends or the enemy scld- iers of tomorrow.
 That's one factor behind the "Tide of Toys" campaign, by which American children who can spare an extra toy immediately after Christmas are urged to send 1t, via the American Legion, to less fort -unate children in Europe.
 There was time when the public thought of Legionnaires chiefly in connection with rough housing at annual conventions. But a new sense of international res. possibility and determination to play a part in world diplomacy is growing in the Legion today. And that is one reason why Legionnaires at this, the busiest time of the year, have been cutting short their holidays to promote what amounts to a friendship train of toys to Europe.

DECLARATION |5ANN0UN(ED BY PRESIDENT
Armed Forces Not to Be Used . Not 10 Enter
 Conflict in China
By John M. Hightower


 WASHINGTON, Jan. 5-lR-Pre- sident Truman today declared an American hands off policy toward the Chinese Island of Formosa.
 Tn a news conference statement, he said the United States has no desire to use its armed forces there or become involved in the civil conflict in China"
 He made clear the only help Chiang kai-Sheks government in Formosa can expect from the Uni- ted States is continuing economic aid.
 Protest Cries Made
 The Presidents pronouncement brought sharp cries of protest from those Republicans in Congress who have been demanding that the United States use extreme mea- sures, if necessary, to keep Formo- sa from falling into the hands of the Chinese Communists.
 Senator Knowland (R-Calif) de- clared in speech to the Senate that the Administration has be- trayed the non- Communist Chin csc forces.
 Knowland said a small school of willful men in the Far Eastern di- vision of the State Department who had the backing of their sup- eriors" are responsible for the plight of Chiang kai-Shek's gov- ernment.
 If Formosa gets into unfriendly hands, he said ..our defense line of Japan Okinawa Philippines is pierced and the Pacific Coast may have to become our first line of defense"
 Senator Connally D-Tex) and Rep. Kee (D-WVa), heads of the Senate and House Foreign Commit tees, defended the Presidents de- cision. They said that trying to defend Formosa might lead to war. MT. Truman said:
 "The United States has no pre- datory designs on Formosa or on any other Chinese territory.
 The United States has no de- sire to obtain special rights or priveleges or to establish military bases on Formosa. Nor does it have any intention of utilizing its arm- ed forces to interfere in the pre- sent situation.
 Keep Out of War
 The United States Government will not pursue course which will lead to involvment in the civil conflict in China.
 "The United States Government will not provide military aid or advice to Chinese forces on For- mosa at this time. In view of the United States Government, the re- sources on Formosa are adequate to enable them to obtain the items which they might consider neces- sary for the defense of the island.
 The United States Government proposes to continue under existing legislative authority the present ECA program of economic assist ance.'
 Stops Controversy
