CLEVELAND, Oct. 27.-Rear
Admiral Wilson A. Leggett, chief
of the Navy's Bureau of Ships,
says the atomic power plant of
the submarine Nautilus, which
is yet to make the first trial run,
sis already obsolete"
Admiral Leggett made the
reference In an address yester-
day to the Society Of Automotive
Engineers in which he discussed
the Navy's diesel engine program
and its relationship to the
advent of nuclear power plants.
The Nautilus, first of four
atomic submarines building or
approved for construction, was
to have started her trial runs
earlier this month. However,
the installation of the wrong
type Of piping in the secondary
steam system has delayed a test
for several months.
Admiral Leggett said that
while atomic engine design is
advancing rapidly, there will be
need for the diesel power plant
for some time.
"In the first place." he said,
"let us bear in mind that the
first nuclear submarine Is not
yet operating -. And then
there are problems of economics,

as radical as this must come
slowly as we think of time. =. I.
$50 far as the future Of diesel
engines Is concerned, atomic
power must be reckoned with.
The most important thing at the
moment Is the timetable.
I'VE expect the Nautilus will
operate as planned. She should.
OF course, be operating now ex-
cept for human mistakes which
had no relation whatever to the
atomic part of the power plant.
But even assuming she works
perfectly. as has been repeatedly
pointed out. her nuclear power
plant is already obsolete. She
will have some troubles.
1--WE will learn some things
from her: and let me emphasize
that when we say she is obso-
lete as q nuclear power plant,
we fully expect that she will be
far from obsolete as q submarine
for many. many years to come.
She will. in fact. be capable OF
doing many things which con-
ventional diesel engine subma-
rines to be built now and in the
future will never be able to do.
There is o place for both at the
moment and we think that there
will be for a long time" i,

Atomic Power Study
For Ships Approved
BY the Assoeioted Press

The Atomic Energy Commits
sion has approved a proposal by
Bethlehem Steel Co. for one of
its departments to study how
nuclear power might operate
commercial ships.
The one-year study will be
conducted by Bethlehem's CEN
tral technical department at
Quincy, Mass. The company has
been associated with develop
ment of machinery for the
atomic powered submarines Maui
titus and Sea Wolf.
The commission said yester-
day:
"The company will make pre-
liminary studies of reactor types,
steam cycles, control methods.
machinery arrangements and
weight. These studies will be
followed by detailed designs OF
reactors and other major pro-
pulsion equipment. The COM
pany also proposes to explore the
development of a package re-
actor plant for small land-based
electric power stations or for
distilling plants to provide fresh
water in remote regions.
1.-THE company will bear the
costs of the study other than
those incurred by the ACC and
its contractors in making avail
able to the company the infor-
nation and consultation services
necessary to the study"

President Doubts
Red A-BIasts Mean
Change in Relations

President Eisenhower said to-
day that a new series Of atomic
test blasts in the Soviet Union
did not change the relations Of
the United States and Russia in
the atomic race.
The President was asked at
a news conference whether the
Soviet tests had changed their
standing. The President replied
that no, he did not think so.
Another reporter pointed out
that atomic scientist Vannevar
Bush recently reported that the
United States was tagging on
atomic developments.
The President replied that Mr..
Bush was entitled to his opinion,
but scientists who have gone to
the White House have not told
him any such story.
Acc Report Skinny.
The Atomic Energy Commis-
sion issued q bare-boned state
ment last night telling of "a
series of detonations of nuclear
explosives in Soviet territory
starting in rnid-September and
continuing at intervals to the
present" ......
The use of the term "series OF
detonations" suggested to some
observers the possibility that the
Soviets may be developing a
family" of nuclear weapons.
possibly including artillery shells.
Otherwise, the Acc statement
shed little light. It gave no
inkling as to whether the Rus
slams had set off atomic or hy-
drogen devices.
Out Noted.
It did say "these tests have
resulted in some widespread fall
out of radioactive material, but
insignificantly in the United
States" The commission did
not say where in this country
this fall-out was detected.
Acc said nothing about how
it found out for itself about the
Russian tests, but the reference
to nuclear fall-out may in itself
be a hint.
Not since August 81, 1858, has
the Acc formally announced
Russian Attest activity. 1t said
then there had been a flssion-
type explosion on Soviet soil and
that the blast would appear to
be part of SERIES"

Dummy Tablets Cure
Colds as Well as Druos

The power of suggestion seems
to have cured as many colds as
certain new drugs, according to
the South African Medical Jour-
nal, which says:
"Extravagant claims for cold
cures were made few years ago
for certain drugs. However,
when hundreds of patients were
treated by an expert committee,
half receiving the drug and half
receiving dummy tablets, the re-
suits were almost as good with
the tablets as with the drug"

Prague Hints Release
.0f Several Sentenced
For Link With Fields
By NE Associated Press

LONDON, Oct. 27.--Radio
Prague, heard in Vienna. indi-
Gated today that Czechoslovakia
may be planning to release
persons jailed several years ago
for their connection with the
Field brothers. Noel and Her
mann.
A Czech court sentenced IL
top Communists and government
leaders to death in November,
1852. including former Red boss
Rudolf Slansky. They were con-
victed of treason, attempting to
overthrow the Communist gov
ernment and connection with the
West. They had been under
arrest since 1850.
Besides those whose executions
were announced, 20 or more per-
sons were either sentenced to life
terms, named as conspirators.
or we're held without trial.
One of these, Simon Orenstein,
leader of the Israeli Mapam
Party, is about to be freed, ac-
cording to Jerusalem reports.
Arrested in 1851, Orenstein was
forced to testify against Slansky.
Others May Be Coming Out.
Radio Prague appeared today
to be preparing the way for an
announcement that some Of the
others sentenced were being
freed. 1t brought a special re-
port-before its customary news
broadcast-about the criminal
activities" of Joseph Swiatlo. a
Polish officer who fed to the
West. It accused him Of falsi-
flying documents and reported
that many persons had been
freed in Poland recently after
an investigation of Swiatlo's
activities.
Hermann Field, a Cleveland,
Ohio, architect who disappeared
in Warsaw early in l949 while
searching for his brother Noel,
was released recently after five
years in a Polish Jail and now
is in nursing home outside
Warsaw. Noel was a United
States State Department official
who vanished in Prague in May
of 1949. Later Noel's wife Herta
disappeared, also in Prague.
Warsaw radio said Hermann
was released after Polish officials
reviewed his case and found the
! charges against him were
framed UP by an American
agent in the Polish security
service"
Swiatlo announced recently in
Washington he had arrested
Hermann Field in 1949. Swiatlo
said he believed Noel and his
wife were dead.
The Prague broadcast today
led to speculation in Vienna that
besides Orenstein, CZechoslovakia
may plan to release Arthur Lon
don, former deputy foreign min
lister, and Even Loebl. former
deputy foreign trade minister.
Both are of Jewish origin and
were sentenced to life imprison-
ment in the Slansky trial. They
were alleged to have had con-
nections with the Field brothers.
The Fields were mentioned
early this year in the trial and
conviction of Marie Svermova,
Slansky's one-time deputy, and
six other persons.
! Western diplomats in Vienna
believe there Is a pattern in the
release of Hermann Field, the
developments in Czechoslovakia
and the recent release in Hun
gary of large numbers Of per-
sons sentenced for treason in
recent years.
/ Not all of these persons had
connections with the Fields. The
diplomats believe Russia's satel-
lites are rehabilitating the for
mer "state enemies" as part Of
an effort to convince their popu-
lations of Communist Justice.
