Atomic unker
Is Projected
By the Associated Press

The Maritime Administration
wants private industry to build
the reactor or nuclear furnace
for its projected atomic tanker.
Administrator Clarence G.
Morse told a House Appropria-
tions subcommittee about the
plans when he testified in behalf
of a $225 million requested APP
preparation for the tanker. His
testimony was made public today.
The tanker project is still en-
broiled in dispute. Chairman
Bonner, Democrat of North Car
DINA, of the House Merchant
Marine Committee wrote Mi
Morse early this year that il APP
preparations for the tanker AND
two non-atomic experimental
ships came to the House flool
without authorizing legislation
he would block them.
The Maritime Administration
had contended it had blanket
authority under a 1886 act tC
build the ships if the President
recommended them and Con-
gress provided the funds.
Maritime witnesses repeated
this contention before the APP
preparations Subcommittee, ano
later Mr.. Bonner and the two
senior Republican members OF
the Merchant Marine Commit
tee, Representatives TollefSon OF
Washington and Allen of Cali
fornia, appeared in rebuttal.
Chairman Preston, Democrat
Of Georgia, said today the APP
preparations subcommittee hao
reached decision on the issue
but will not announce it in ad-
vance of its report to the full
committee.

indicated the atomic tanker i;

declared.
Credit Necessary
