The Secretary has also

technical adequacy of the bu-

Both of these studies are in
accord with prior recommen-

Secretary, and my remaining
as director until such studies
are completed is in accord with
requests made by a number
of members of the Congress,
by a number of scientific or

dividual scientists.
The Visiting Committee of
the National Bureau of Stand

represents the only practicable
solution to the present prob

regardless of my personal
opinions or wishes I should
continue as director during
this interim period.

BY the Asseciated Press

Important gains in their
struggle against news suppress
sion-except in the realm Of
atomic energy - were reported
today to the American Society
of Newspaper Editors.
But James S. Pope, chairman
of ASNE's Freedom of Informa-
ton Committee. advised 400
editors in their annual meeting
here to adopt an attitude Of
"watchful waiting and suspended
judgment" on information poll
cies of the Eisenhower admin
istration.
In some moves the Repub-
licans have seemed fearful of
full public knowledge" Mr.. Pope,
executive editor of the Louis
vile Courier journal and Times,
said. He expressed hope these
gestures arose merely from in
experience. from initial caution.
from misunderstanding"
Order Easing Expected.
1--WE have been led to believe" I"
he added. that an executive
order issued in September. 1851.
by former President Truman
authorizing civilian agencies to
set up tight security classical
tions of information will be
withdrawn or substantially modi-
fed"
1t is "quite likely" also, he
predicted, that Congress will
enact a law guaranteeing the
public and press access to Gov
ernment records which do not
involve national security. Such
a law presumably would, in addi-
ton, strengthen the hand of
congressional committees in OBJ
tanning executive records.
Paul Block. jr.. co-publisher
of the Toledo Blade and chair
man of the society's subcommit-
tee on atomic information, was
less optimistic than Mr.. Pope.
Some qualified observers, he
said. have"~ewarned that harm
full security may get a new lease
on life" undef the new admins
tration. He added:
"The curtain around the
United States atomic energy
program is obstructing scientific
progress in the development of
uses of the new force.
Inadequate for Defense.
There have been numerous
complaints that civil defense
authorities have not bean told
enough about atomic warfare to
defend the public against it,"
DR.. Harold Cross, counsel to
the Pope Committee and author
of a new book. "The Peoples
Right to Know" reported some
gains and some reverSes in the
attack on news suppression.

partment soon after S o'clock:
Secretary Weeks was granting
DR.. Astin a reprieve, would keep
him in his post as director for
several months" and would
then find other employment for
him at equal salary elsewhere in
the Government.
BY the time the news reached
the Bureau at Sis, most staff
members were on their way
home. but among those who were
left the word spread rapidly
through the corridors. Secre-
taries chatted excitely with
scientists. The password was a
satisfied smile and a buzz of
happy talk.
In DR.. Astin's own Office, his
two secretaries seemed to feel
they were still under an earlier
Commerce ban on staff COM
ments. But, pressed for a re-
action to the news, they did con-
flde:
We'll, we're not weeping!"
DR., Wallace Brode, second in
command in the bureau, hurried
by with an official mo COM
ment," but quickly-added,
You bet it is" when asked if
the bureau was pleased with the
turn of events.
Another secretary in a nearby
Office said fervently:
II just knew it had to turn
out like this. I just knew it!
Anything as right as DR.. Astin's
case had to turn out right"
At the gate, a guard summed
it up:
II guess everybody here is GO

cordance with the statement of
intent in my remarks to the
Senate Small Business Com
mittee on March 81, I have
asked DR.. Bronx. president Of

Sciences, to appoint a commit
tee to effectively appraise the
quality Of the bureaus work in
this particular area. this study
to include tests. both labora-

Further. with respect to DR..

Texts of Statements by Weeks, Astin

Tert of statement By Secre-
tdry of Commerce Weeks:
have at this time some an
nouncements to make respect
ing the National Bureau Of
Standards, it's director. DR..
Astin, and certain decisions
taken with respect thereto.
First, would emphatically
point out that at no time has
there been any intent. implied
or otherwise, to cast reflection
on the integrity of the bureau
or on the professional COM
petence or integrity of Dr.
Astin. The latter is a scientist
of distinction who has served
his country well.
Such differences as I have
had with DR.. Astin result from
a conflict with respect to ad-
ministrative viewpoint and
procedure and have literally
nothing to do with scientific
evaluations or conclusions.
I have recently requested DR..
Detlev w. Bronx. president OF
the National Academy of Sci
ences, to appoint a chairman
of a committee to evaluate the
present functions and opera
tions of the Bureau of Stand
ards in relation to the present
national needs. DR.. Bronx ap-
pointed DR.. M. j. Kelly, a
member of the Academy of
Sciences and president of the
Bell Telephone Laboratories.
In discussing with DR.. Kelly
the prospective work of the
committee, he has indicated to
me the desirability of asking
DR.. Astin to continue as direc-
tor of the bureau until the
work of the committee is COM
pleted in the late summer or
early fall.
No question is involved Of DR..
Astin's permanent retention.
but it is felt by all concerned
that he can be most helpful in
this evaluation study, and he
has accordingly consented to
carry on until the study is
completed.
Looking forward to this
time, I was yesterday in con-
ference with the National Bu-
reau of Standards Visiting
Committee, established by act
of Congress, and have asked
it, during the next several
months, to make canvass and
bring forward a panel Of
names from which I shall ex-
pect to select new director
of the bureau.
With respect to the recent
