weapons functions of the Acc
are associated closely with the
work Of the military department.
However. this also pointed UP
the mounting interest of the

particularly in view of published
reports that the United States
might be compelled to utilize
tactical A-bombs and atomic
cannon to bring a decision in
the Korean war if the Commu-

The Quantico meeting also
could provide a forum for dis
cussion Of an old question:
Should some of the control orig
inally held by the military over
atomic weapons be returned? I?
The first atomic bombs were de-
veloped under military control.
But when Congress shaped the
Atomic Energy Act in 1947 all
control passed to civilian hands.
The Acc was assigned exclusive
responsibility for the making Of
weapons. The President was
given the power to decide on the
release Of nuclear devices to the
military as needed.
Mr.. Wilson is described as be-
Ieving that more latitude, for
instance, should be given to the
overall chief of a unified mill
tary command, such as Europe
or the Far East, to say what
service or what weapons should
be used in specific situations.

Douglas and Malone
Debate al Spot Where
Lincoln, Douglas Met
BY the Assoeiated Press

OTTAWA, ILL.,, July 18.-Sen-
ator Douglas, Democrat, of Him
ois, and Senator Malone, Repub-
lican, of Nevada, debated foreign
issues today on one of the sites
where another Senator Douglas
debated the issue of slavery with
Abraham Lincoln 95 years ago.
Today's discussion was a high
light Of the Ottawa Centennial
Observance.
In the earlier debate, Senator
Stephen A. Douglas, also an Il
linois Democrat, was waging a
successful campaign for re-elec-
ton. The year was 1858. Lincoln
was the Republican candidate
opposing Senator Douglas. He
lost the senatorial election, but
his arguments on issues of that
day in a series of campaign tilts
with Senator Douglas had much
to do with Lincoln's nomination
and election to the Presidency
two years later.
The Senator Douglas of today
told a crowd Of 5000 in Ottawa's
historic Washington Park that
he Is championing "the same
cause as Lincoln-freedom."
Today's issue, said Senator
douglas, as "a free world" re.
quiring a buildup Of Americas
armed strength and alliances
with other nations to thwart
Communist aggression.
Senator Malone said America
cannot make permanent alIi-
ances with any nations. History
shows, he added, that nations
abandon alliances at their con-
venience.
The Nevada Senator advo-
Gated flexible tariffs, which he
said would benefit American
businessmen. factory employees
and farmers. He said flexible
tariffs would permit the elimina-
ton Of IS per cent of Govern
bent subsidies paid to American
farmers with the exception of

bacco.

Wet Mimi Reported
Evacuating Civilians
On Chinese Border
By the Asseeiatsd Pra,a

HANOI, Indo-China, July 18.
Wet Mimi troops we're reported
to be evacuating civilians from
all towns along the Chinese bor-
der today as an aftermath Of the
French blow at Lang Son.
A well-informed source said the
civilians are being moved south

the French-pleaSed by results Of
q parachute troop raid yesterday
which knocked out the enemy'S
main relay center for war sup
plies from Red China-will at
tack all other garrison points in
the frontier zone.
Without official confirmation,
there is a growing belief here
that the French aim to stage a
decisive campaign against the
Wet Mini before the end of
the year.
The French High Command
announced that the 5000 French
Union parachute troops who cap
tured Lang Son, blew up war sup
plies warehouSed there and de-
stroyed the bridges and roads to
the north, had withdrawn safely
and Joined up with other troops
sent to protect their retreat. The
wounded were flown out by hell
copter.
Use American Planes.
The troopers parachuted into
the attack yesterday from
American-supplied transport
planes. They bailed out within
sight Of the Chinese frontier,
only 10 miles away. French
lines guarding the Red River
delta were 80 miles across the
jungle to the south.
The French command said it
dropped a large force of para
chutiSts along the retreat route
to help the troopers withdraw
through Wet Mimi territory. The
route is a difficult one, often
dominated by high ground and
lined with bushes that could be
used for ambush. But the French
command said the troops had
encountered no resistance.
The attack in the Wet Minis
back yard was the first big job
by Gen. Rene Cogny since he
assumed command of French
Union forces in the North six
weeks ago. Obviously pleased
by the results, Gen. Cogny COM
mented only: "I'll attack the
enemy wherever I find them"

supplies out of China-supplies
that the French say have been

tons a month.
Possible points Of entry are
Gao Bang, 100 miles north of
Hanoi. and Thanh Thuy and
Ha Giang. 140 miles northwest
Of Hanoi But all these are much
farther than Lang Son from the

Tunnor Clinic
Aided by
Cancer Unit
By Frances Lide


A $4,000 donation, plus the
proceeds from a country fair to
be held Wednesday and Thurs
day in the Silver Spring Armory,
will be presented this month to
the Children's Hospital Tumor
Clinic by one Of the Capitals
most enterpriSing organizations,
the District Cancer Aid Group.
In the past five years, the
group already has contributed
about $4,000 for the fight
against cancer, dividing these
funds between Children's Hospi-
tai and the American Cancer So
ciety.
Its annual contribution to the
latter organization will be made
in April during the annual can
Ger fund drive. The full amount
OF the donation has not yet been
authorized. but it probably will
pass the $1,000 mark.
How does the organization
raise the money for such gener-
Gus donations?
by working very hard all the
year round" one of the officials
explained last week.
This weeks country fair, which
Is scheduled to open at $3.50
o'clock both evenings, already
has kept members busy for the
past several months.
One Of the biggest jobs was
soliciting merchandise which will
be offered as prizes. But the
merchants have been very gener-
GUS, according to reports, so the
event will represent a COM
munity-wide effort.
A similar fair held last year
for one night only resulted in a
profit Of $1,000. This years
chairman, Mrs. Max Belof and
her co-chairman, Mrs. Benjamin
M. Waldman, are hoping for
even greater success this time.
The fair is only one of many
money-making projects spon-
sored by the organization. A
"kiddie show" in April and a
family picnic in May are among
events scheduled in the near
future. A donor banquet in the
fall is one of the most profitable
entertainments sponsored by the
group. Dances, card parties and
rummage sales also are held from
time to time.
Organized in the fall of 1947
by 13 young housewives, the
group now has a membership of
approximately 400.
For the first two years it
donated all the funds it could
raise to the American Cancer
Society. However, most of the
members are young mothers so
they decided to make aid to the
Tumor Clinic at Children's Hos
pital their special project.
The hospital receives all the
funds raised through the Hattie
Cherner Winters memorial paint
ing.
Unveiled in 1949, this is a
large oil painting of an imagi-
nary hospital clinic, which men,
bers are building" by donating
funds designated for each brick,

painting was dedicated to the
memory of Mrs. Hattie Cherner
Winters whose daughter-in-laW,
Mrs. Joseph Cherner, is mem
