lively as Stain did is directly re-
lated to this. The fact that Stain
was heir to Lenin was a big factor
in his successful control of the satel-
lite countries. Some satellite leaders
may feel they have had experience
in the Communist world which out
weighs Malenkov's. One major
question is whether China's veteran
Communist Mao Tse-tung will re-
gard .Malenkov as the man to follow.
Some observers looked for signs
of discord between Peiping and
Moscow this week. They interpreted
Mao Tse-tung's absence from the
Stain funeral as a possible har-
binger of trouble despite the Red
Chinese leaders repeated avowals
of loyalty.
Nevertheless, it was thought that
Red China's Foreign Minister Chou
En-lai might have gone to Moscow
to do more than attend Stains last
rites. Far East experts pointed out
that Chou was in a position to make
heavier demands on the Russians.
With Stain gone and Mao Tse-tung's
allegiance in question, Chou could
bargain for increased Soviet aid 10
the Chinese Reds in Korea. In addi-
ton, he could point to the Anglo
American agreement last week to
bar shipment of strategic goods to
Red China and ask for more Soviet

toned to save money and maintain
an ammunition reserve. This is nor
NAL military precaution."
Van Fleets testimony last week
that ammunition shortages in Korea
were continuous and sometimes criti-
cal appeared in sharp contrast to
the statement.
These developments further con-
fused the issue:
/. The Defense Department de-
clared there is sufficient ammunition
in the Far East to counter any
enemy attack,
2. Gen. Mark Clark, Supreme Al
lied Commander in the Far East,
said "there was always enough
(ammLnition) whenever we needed
to shoot tin any quantity"
3. Col. Claude Shaver, a division
chief of staff on the front, said his
outfits combat operations "have not
been hampered by a lack of any
type of ammunition"
Defense Secretary Charles Wilson
sided with Gen. Omar N. Bradley's
contention that U.N. forces in Korea
have generally had enough ammuni-
ton.
Wilson testified along with Van
Fleet and others at a closed session
of the Senate Armed Services Com
mittee Tuesday in the midst of a
growing demand by Congress that
some agreement be reached on needs
.or the future and how to meet them
n Korea
While the Defense Secretary made
t clear that ammunition supplies in
Korea were adequate, his testimony
seemed to concede thai the Eighth
Army had been restricted in some
cases when it came to shell supplies.
Army Secretary Robert T B.
Stevens told Senators the long stale
mate during the futile truce nego-
tiations have allowed the Commu-
nists to dig in so that heavier shells
are needed to blast their fortifca-
tions.
Wilson said the Eighth Army has
the ammunition necessary for oper-
stions on the present scale. He
limited at more active" operations
in Korea in this statement:
Soon, it is fair to state, we shall
have the amounts (of ammunition
necessary to give field commanders
considerable latitude IL determining
upon and supporting a more active
type of operation"
Said Massachusetts Sen. Leverett
SaltonstaH, chairman of the Senate
Armed Services Committee: Re
CARELESS of whether Army and De-
tense officials disagree on what has
happened IN the past, or even on
what the present situation is, we
hope they will get together on the
needs for the future"

Arms
Atomic Artillery

Atomic Artillery
In case of war with Russia. the
basic Allied plan for countering the
Communist advantage in manpower
is to come up with superior fire.
power
The new atomic cannon, designed
to fire atomic shells, gives the us.
an important lead in the nuclear
weapons race with the Soviet Union.
The Atomic Energy Commission and
the Defense Department have an
nounced that a "proiectile armed
with an atomic warhead" will be
fired in the series of experiments
starting next week at the Nevada
proving grounds.
The theory of tactical atomic war;
fare is to maneuver advancing
enemy forces into columns of masses
of men and equipment and then
strike with atomic weapons. The ex-
plosion of single atomic shell could
produce complete destruction over
an area Of more than a mile from
the bursting point. This kind of fire.
power could be equalled only by a
huge number Of conventional artil-
lery shells.
The new 28O-millimeter mobile
artillery piece which will fire the
first atomic shell, is said by the
Army to be four times more accu-
rate at long ranges than any mobile
artillery piece developed prior to
World War II.
An undisclosed number of the big
guns, capable of firing either atomic
or standard ammunition, have been
produced and units are training to
use them.

goods to be moved overland from
Russia.
BaSically, every Communist coun-
try has its own point of view and
may be more likely to assert itself
now that Stain is dead than in the
past.
II this line of reasoning is on the
right track, the assumption of power
in the Soviet Union by Georgi NAL
enkov is scarcely more important
than the naming of Molotov to his
old post Of foreign minister.
Molotov was relieved of this Job
in 1949, just when China had entered
the Communist orbit. Speculation
current then never has been denied
that his big job was to consolidate
and exploit the great new fact of
Communist life-Red China.
1t was a crucial problem not only
because of China's great size and
strangehecs to Communism, but also
because China had become the per
sonifcation of the whole satellite
crisis as displayed by the Tito de.
lection the year before.
These problems were met, to a
certain extent, in the name Of
Stains leadership. Now that he is
gone, satellite relations appear to
reVolve around Molotov, but he will
carry out policy formulated in the
name of the dour Malenkov.
If Molotovs return to the Foreign
Ministry means a continuation of
tact and consideration toward China,
it bespeaks a realization by the Rus
slams that the China problem may
need attention for some time to
come.
If, on the other hand, it means
that Molotov is a mere instrument
and that the Russians are going to
try to solve their China problem by
ignoring it, then trouble can be ex-
pected
The appointment by the Kremlin
of Deputy Foreign Minister Vastly
Kuznetsov as its ambassador to
Peiping, replacing Alexander Pan
yushkin, appears to rule out the lat
ter assumption. The Kuznetsov
appointment, if anything, underlines
Malenkov's promise of new unity
with Red China.
There have been reports, since
Stalin's fatal illness was first an
nounced, that Communist guards in
satellite countries were Tightening
up border restrictions-an indica-
ton that Moscow was ready to exert
pressure to keep the satellites in
line.
Even if the new KremIin high
command should be faced with trou-
bic in the satellites or at home, it
would not necessarily herald a new
opportunity for the West. On the
contrary, it might mean a severe
worSening Of the East West crisis. It
is time-worn Soviet policy to di-
vert discomfort close to home by use
of an outside scapegoat. In this case.
Malenkov, if the pressure at home
showed signs of getting out of hand,
could embark on some new venture
abroad.
On the other hand, Russia will be
a problem until her people, or the
people in her satellites, are able to
do something to end the reign of
terror on their own.
