Atomic Ships Planned.
A spokesman for the Ministry of
Supply disclosed last Wednesday
that Britain is planning the con-
struction of atomic energy plants
for ships.
The spokesman said the atomic
engine would be small enough to
be carried by a destroyer.

Admiral Longley- Cook presumably
would be in charge of security
for any such project involving the
British Admiralty.
The Ministry of Supply spokes-
man said the cabinet will be
asked to study plans for the sea-
going atomic engines within the
next two months.
This was taken to indicate that
the plans are pretty we'll along
the way to, final blueprints, but it
was estimated that it would take
two years to build the engines.

Gen. Hill outlined the problem
yesterday during a session of the

housing authorized for construc-

Government auspices were made
available.
Under existing law. financing
concessions are available to pri-
vate interests undertaking to
build rental housing, within GER

been that enlisted men of the
lower grades could not afford to-
pay the rents of Governments
sponsored rental housing built by
private enterprise. -.
The only answer seems to be
more Government-built housing
for these families, he told the
committee.
Mr.. Vinson has been cool to-
the public housing items in the
bill. He has demanded maximum
use of the law enacted to encour- .
age private investors to meet the
need, in order that Government
funds for the armed forces could
be used to buy equipment.
In the case of Quantico, how
ever, he told Gen. Hill to submit

HcCarthy Charges ST
In State Department
Hold Red Party Cards
BY the Assoeioted Press

SALT LAKE CITY, Feb. IL
Senator Mccarthy, Republican, of
Wisconsin hoped across the
Nation by air yesterday, leaving a
trail of accusations that the State
Department is employing Com
munists, many of whom hold in
f1uential positions.
He refused to reveal any names
to newsmen, but said under certain
conditions he would give Secretary
of State Acheson the names of "57
card-carrying Communists" in the
State Department.
In Washington the Senator's
charges brought from Lincoln
White, State Department press
officer, the assertion, 1--WE know of
no Communist member in the de-
partment and if we find any they
will be summarily discharged"
Senator Mccarthy continued his
trip today to Reno, New, where he
will address Lincoln Day ban
quet tonight.
Started Attack Thursday.
The Wisconsin Senator fired his
first blast Thursday night in a
Republican Lincoln Day dinner
in Wheeling, w. Va. He waved a
paper and said:
Il have here in my hand list
Of 207 that were known to the
Secretary of State as being mem
bers of the Communist Party, and
who nevertheless are still work
ing and shaping the policy in the
State Department"
NewSmen missed the Senator
as his plane stopped in Milwaukee,
but they found him in Denver.
where he scoffed at Mr.. Whites
denial of his charges. He said
he bad complete list of 207 bad
risks" still working in the State
Department and if Secretary
Acheson wanted to call him later
in Salt Lake City he'd read the
list.
He asserted he intended to tell
his story over and over until the
public gets so tired of it the ad-
ministration will have to clean up
the mess"
When he reached Salt Lake
City he told reporters the terms
under which he would give Sec
retary Acheson the names.
He said he would reveal them if
the Secretary telephoned him, and
if "Acheson would show his sin
cerity by having a presidential
order revoked, at least insofar as
the 81 (who he says are card
carrying Communists) are con-
cerned."
The order prohibits Government
departments from turning over
loyalty records to congressional
committees.
ut would be waste of effort
to give Acheson the names, then
have him deny they are Commu-
nists and we cannot get the rec
Ords," Senator Mccarthy said.
Explains His Figures.
Explaining his figures concern
ngs the names, he said the Presi-
dents Loyalty Board screened
about 1000 persons, in, the State
Department. 1t described 289 of
them as bad risks" he said, and
207 are still in the department.
He asserted that this group in
cludes the "57 card-carrying CON-
munists." LIS
And he declared that most of
the 81 are above "the SIS 800 brae
ket' and hold influential positions.
He said the sources of his IN
formation were varied and he
would not reveal them. But he
added that "tfe House Un-Ameri-

l7-Day Weather
Outlook
Montdnd-W yoniing
By O. L. MOLDENHAUER


MOSTLY WARM and dry but
with several changes is the out
look for Montana and northern
Wyoming for the remainder of
July. This period may see some of
the driest and warmest weather
of the summer. Montana and Wy
oming were very dry in May, but
in June the pattern was reversed.
June rainfall was very spotted
in most states, and if it had been
normally distributed throughout
the heart of the nation all states
would have averaged bit dry.
AS it was, however, South Da-
kota, Nebraska, Colorado and
parts of several others were very
dry while some states and Sec
tons received excessive June
rainfall.
In an abnormal year like this
we can expect greater variations
and they will also show up dur
ing the next few weeks. Because
weather patterns shift from month
| to month the extreme-either wet
or dry-are not likely to recur in
the same section or state. This is
indicated as dry period, and so
there will be fewer wet spots but
larger dry areas.
Montana Farmer-Stockman ter
ritory can expect some pretty dry
weather for the remainder of July
and beginning of August. An in
crease in storm activity and
brief increase in moisture is due
| during the first half of August. A
good rain then would be a boon
to late crops and pastures.
Weather Changes
Cool weather and a few days of
showers or light rain at the begin
ming of this period will be fol-
lowed by a return to fair and
warm weather about Monday, the
18th. Thundershower activity is
indicated for northern Montana
from the 10Th to Goth.
| A wave of cool air is expected
to overrun Montana and Wyom-
ing from the north about the 21st
and set up storm that will CEN
ter over Wyoming between the
21st and 23d in its eastward move
ment. This looks like a favorable
time for some form of precipita-
ton throughout Montana as well
as Wyoming.
| Warm weather is due to return
by Monday, the oath, and con-
tinue mostly warm and dry
through Thursday, the 9th. I'm
settled with scattered thunder
showers is indicated for the 28tE
and Both, but the average guam
tity of precipitation is likely tc
be light at this time. Moderate
temperatures are due at the close
of July and beginning of August
Precipitation: Below norma
average. Temperatures: A bovt
