u. 5. Bar Association
Asks Atom Go-Ahead
For Private Business
By the Associofed Press

CHICAGO, Nov. 20. - The
American Bar Association called
on Congress today to authorize
private ownership of atomic re-
actors and fashionable materials
so Government and free enter
prise can team up to create a
true atomic age"
The ABA's Special Committee
on Atomic Energy submitted a
report on its views at the invita-
ton of The Joint Committee on
Atomic Energy. The joint COM
mittee is studying proposals
for amending the 1916 Atomic
Energy Act in formulating
Federal policy on atomic power
development and private enter
prise"
Gordon Dean, New York at
torney and former chairman of
the Atomic Energy Commission
is member of the ABA Com
mittee.
The ABA Committee said the
known. reserves of uranium and
thorium are capable of produc-
ing some % times as much heat
energy as that available in the
known supplies of fossil fuels
and that sufficient supplies are,
or soon will be, available.
Therefore we conclude that
there is no reason to refrain
from planning widespread in
dustrial development for peace
time purposes because of prospec-
tive shortages of essential mate
rialS," the committee said.
1t said true atomic age would
provide untold benefits to man
kind in the form of electric
power production. new chemical
processes, and industrial appli-
cations, new motive power for
transportation. further advances
in medicine, agriculture and in
other fields not yet envisaged." I"
The committee said private
enterprise could be given the
green light on developing peace
time applications of atomic
energy.

Allies Ask Reds 10 End
Travel Bars in Germany
BY the Associoted Press

BONN. Germany, Aug. 81
The three Western allies urged
the Russians today to permit all
Germans to travel freely between
the Bonn Republic and Com
munist-ruled East Germany.
The request was made in
three similar letters from the
high commissioners of the United
States, Britain and France to
Soviet High Commissioner Vladi-
mir S. Semyenov.
The three Western occupa-
ton powers took the action at
the request of the West Ger
man government, which proposed
free travel as a preliminary re-
quirement for national elections
throughout all zones.
United States High Commis-
sioner James B. Conant said in
his letter to Semyenov the con-
tinuation of a system of re-
quiring interzonal passes be-
tween the Soviet and allied
occupied areas of the country
has no justification. He eX-
pressed the hope Semyenov
would agree that eve should
jointly waive this requirement
for German nationals"

More Air Officers
And Enlisted Men
Due 10 Be Released
By John A. Giles

The Air Force plans to release
1902 officers and allow $4,000
airmen who ordinarily would
serve an additional year to leave
the service this fiscal year in
order to meet bugetary limita-
tions.
The airmen who will be given
the option of shorter enlistments
are in non-critical SkillS.
The Army, meanwhile, said
today that 10 per cent of those
= officers who expressed a desire
to remain on active duty were
being rejected as it tapers down
to keep within the budget. An
official said an estimated 10000
officers will have been released to
inactive duty by June 80, 1854,
and that the college r. o. T. C..
program will be cut back about
a year from now.
Junior II. U. L. &. Cut.
Formal enrolment in the
Army's junior r. o. T. C. pro-
gram-at high schools, military
Institutes and Junior colleges
will be limited to 10000 students
during the 1953-54 school year
This is approximately 80 per cent
of the 1928 beginning enroll
ment and about 100 per cent Of
the final enrolment. The slight
reduction necesSitated in enroll
ment is not expected to impede
the junior r. o. T. c. program
at any institution, the Army
said.
But the hardest hit of all the
services-and especially in its
officer rankS-iS the air arm.
Originally the department had
estimated it would be necessary
to drop 12,500 officers, but this
estimate has been increased as
additional time has consumed
more of the funds appropriated
for personnel.
Already the Air Force has sent
separation notices to 1922 off,
cers-739 of them pilots on flying
status. Special selection boards
went over the officers efficiency
reports and made recommended
tions as to the separations.
Involuntary release actions
are now in progress for an ad-
ditional 6,592 off1cers-2,178 of
them pilots on flying status.
Among the latter are 81 who
have been trained to fly the BAT
Stratojet bomber. All the notif1-
cations will have gone out by
August 81.
The Air Force anticipates that
normal attrition will rid it of
better than 4,300 other officers
and that 1876 will leave volun-
tarily under more lenient release
policies.
A board to select lieutenant
colonies and colonels for invol-
untary separation is now meeting
and notifications to them will
be in the mails by November /.
Those selected will be released
by December 81.
Every effort is being made to
release those least needed-those
in less critical skills-but an Off
cial admitted the system was
certainly not infallible."
But forced separation of Off
GERS is mandatory under the
present situation and the longer
the separations are held up more
and more officers must be re-
leased for the simple reason that
there will not be funds to pay
them" he said. The recommen-
dations of the air commands are
of primary consideration in the
final ANALYSIS "

that no part of the State funds
could be used, unless the Fed.
eral Government made available
some money for the same
project.
Senator Butler pointed out
that he had made an effort to
get Federal funds approved by
the Senate Appropriations Com
mittee in the supplemental bill,
but the committee itself had re-
fused any amount for this pur-
pose.
Predicament Outlined.
When he came on the Senate
floor to plead for an amendment
to the pending supplemental bill
ne outlined at length the pre-
dicament of Peace Cross with its
recurrent floods.
Senator Bridges. during dis
cussion of the amendment, said
that the Senate conferees had
lost the 100000 item out of the
civil functions supply bill in con-
ference, and he said he would
hesitate to take the same figure
back to conference in another
appropriations measure.
Senator Butler then cut the
figure to 100000 and the
amendment was approved with

The Long amendment was
headed off by Acting Majority

the theme that additional cuts
in the program might be. read as
a sign of weakness by the ruth
less men in the Kremlin."
If we stand f1rm." the Cali

strains may bring Goddess COM
munism crashing down."
Mccarthy Proposal Beaten.
Among five other attempts to
change the bill was one led by
Senator Mccarthy of Wisconsin
to withhold funds from nations
trading with Communist China.
Senator McCarthy's amend
ment would have deducted from
the foreign aid fund for any
nation an amount equivalent to
its trade with the Reds.
Under the parliamentary
situation, two-thirds vote was
required to get the amendment
before the Senate. Senator Nc
Carthy failed to get even a
majority, the vote being 50-34
against suspending the rules to
consider his amendment.
Senator Knowland opposed
the Mccarthy amendment, say
ing it was not the way to deal
with the problem. He said trade
should have been stopped by a
tight naval blockade.
He paid tribute. however, to
what he termed the useful
service Senator McCarthy's sub
committee had done in bringing
out facts about trade with Com
muniSt China.
During the night the Senate
also. rejected. 55-23, an amend
ment of Senator Gore, Democrat,
of Tennessee, to knock out $50
million earmarked for a secret
special weapons program.
The Senate adopted by voice
vote an amendment b. Senator
Hickenlooper, Republican. of
Iowa, to restrict aid to France
unless she gives equal treatment
to American businessmen oper-
ating in Morocco.
Senator Jenner, Republican, of
Indiana, offered an amendment
to the bill to limit actual spend
ing on foreign aid to $5 billion
in the current financial year, the
same amount as was spent last
year. This suggestion was beaten
1888.
