In his answering statement,
Mr.. Kaghan said:
1T is almost a month since !
first requested by cable an op-
portunity to testify before the
Mccarthy committee. 1 am not
only ready but eager to tell the
Senate and the American peo-
pie what I have accomplished in
the cold war against Soviet
communism here in Europe
where the threat is an everyday
reality rather than an excuse
for creating political confusion
COhn Answers Statement.
II have supervised anti

LiIienthaI Denounces
Federal Monopoly Of
Atomic Development
BY the Associated Press

NEW YORK, May 25.-Present
Federal monopoly of atomic de-
Velopment is hurting both mill
tary and economic progress, says
David E. Lilienthal, former chair
man of the Atomic Energy
Commission.
Mr.. Lilienthals remarks we're
published today in the transcript
of a symposium on atomic energy
held under auspices of the Ma
tional Industrial Conference
Board.
Il think our policy, under
present-day conditions, wrong" :"
said Mr.. Lilienthal. "One Of
the strong reasons I had for
leaving the public service was
to be free to say so. I think
the Mcmahon Act needs basic
rewriting; it is hurting our eco
nomic development and it is
certainly hurting our progress
in military ways.
MY own suggestion is essen
TALLY this: That we apply to
the atomic energy field the same
security standards as are
applied by the military services
with respect to other arms re-
search"
The former Acc head spe-
cif1cally cited need for repeal of
Section 7 of the Mcmahon Act,
the Federal law controlling de-
velopment of all nuclear mate
rials. Section fixes licensing
requirements for non-govern-
ment laboratories and indus
tries which desire to use flssion-
able material.
That section must be re-
pealed before any one can safely
and properly invest other peo-
pies money in this business j..
it was probably a good enough
provision when it was written,
but is deterrent at the present
time"
