The contaminated water had to
be pumped out and the calandria
(pressure vessel in the center of
the reactor) had to be removed.
Due to the extent of the contain
nation no one could work nearer
than so feet from the unshielded
calandria nor could they look d.
rectly into the reactor to study
the damage
Everything had to be done by
remote control with practice runs
to assure success Manpower was
at a premium because a workman
could receive his weekly allowance
of radiation in an hour
The United States no tonly con-
tributed the services of skilled sci
entists and engineers but also spe-
cial equipment to speed operations,
While this was an expensive ac-
cident safety measures were of
necessity dvlsed that might not
otherwise have come this soon
Through taking radioactive re-
actor apart and putting it together
again in this emergency it is now
known that by using proper pro-
cedures large amounts of radioac-
tive material can be handled safe

Thursday.
In that speech Mr.. Nixon re-
called that he had said previ-
ously that he had brought seri-
Gus charges on the communism
issue against various leaders of

wing clique have not questioned
a single statement I made"
Mr.. Schlesinger's wire said:
"ADA has repeatedly answered
your silly charges, and on Oc-
tober 6 issued a point-by- point
rejoinder to your absurd allega-
tions that there is anything
obscure or fuzzy about ADA's
Communist stand.
@Of course ADA has opposed
McCarthyism and all political
quacks who have tried as you
are trying to make phony

ness of fighting communism here

Wilson Hits People
Who Rattle A-Bomb
By the Associoted Press

LOS ANGELES, Oct. 23.-
Secretary of Defense Wilson
Yesterday criticized people who
rattle the atomic bomb" in
an attempt to scare citizens of
this and other nations.
The cabinet member said in
an address on "Peace Through
Strength" at a meeting of the
Los Angeles World Affairs Coun-
Gil:
I'm many ways neither the
people Of our country nor the
people of other free nations
appreciate the true strength of
the United States. So much has
been said about the rising power
OF the Soviets and so little about
our own strength that there is
danger that the people IN our
country could become over-anx-
louS and alarmed, and that the
people Of other free nations in
both hemispheres might become
confused and uncertain"
Mr. Wilson did not identify
the persons of whom he said:
Il do not believe that the peo-
pie who are rattling the atomic
bomb and trying to scare our
own people, and indirectly the
peoples of other nations, are
doing our country and the rest
OF the world any service.
I'VE can more profitably spend
our time in analyzing our prob
lens and doing something about
them. At the same time we
should remember that we are
strong and that in our efforts
to make world peace secure we
should not at any time act like
we were weak or afraid"

No Tax Rise Needed
In New Plans for
District, Lowe Says
LAP wirephoto.

Schuyler Lowe, the District
Governments director of general
administration, assured tax
payers yesterday that future
plans being formulated by the
Commissioners can be financed
under present tax rates.
"You can definitely forget any
tax increase so far as present
operations are concerned" he
told a luncheon meeting of the
Board of Trades National Repre-
sentation and D. c. Form of
Government Committee at the
Ambassador Hotel.
He qualified his statement,
however, to account for any pay
legislation which may be enacted
by Congress.
He explained that the recent
increase in cost of District gov
ernment operation, despite the
reorganization program, has re-
suited from "pent-up and super
imposed demands for services. !"
Cites Inspections Unit.
For instance. he pointed to
the Department of Licenses and
Inspections, which shortly after
it's reorganization was forced to
hire additional inspectors to
work on the slum-clearance pro-
| gram.
Pay increases for firemen,
teachers, policemen and hourly
workers have added several mil
lion dollars each year to the
Districts budget.
He said that public assistance
payments have increased $780,
900 a year.
Police Department successes
in cutting the crime rate have
resulted in greater numbers in
jail. Detention institutions. he
said, "are loaded to the gills."
The necessary expansion OF
welfare institutions and IN
creased costs of keeping patients
at st. EIizabeth's Hospital also
were cited by Mr.. Lowe.
Sees Rosy Side"
On the rosy SIDE" Mr.. Lowe
said the city can realize about
$4,000, 900 in additional taxes If
present plans for redevelopment
of the Southwest section are ful-
filed.
Present efforts to keep up
property values in sections where
they could drop if property is
not Kept in good repair were held
to be costly now, but an invest
ment for the future.
A subcommittee Of the group
composed of Alexander v. Hawes

to study financial aspects of the
