L. Strauss, chairman of the
Atomic Energy Commission, last
night stressed that the new series
of shots at the Eniwetok proving
grounds would feature weapons
of a power below "the maximum
1854 test"
Congressional sources only a
week or SO ago told newsmen
that the spring series would in
clude an H-bomb of perhaps so
megatons, the equivalent of SO
million tons Of TINT. The 1854
giant was generally believed to
have been between Is and 20
megatons.
The announcement of the new
tests. made jointly by the Acc
and the Defense Department,
amounted to an official rejection
of demands at home and abroad
that all nations halt the testing
of nuclear weapons.
One reason, it is believed, the
Government feels it should pro-
coed with such tests is that there
is a possibility of a research de-
velopment that would permit a
real defense against nuclear
weapons.
1t is understood that a COM
plete defense system. involving

Safe in Jordan

AMMAN. Jordan. Jan. Is (Pl.-
Arab Legion troops today brought
four Americans to safety in Am
man after rioters burned down
two buildings belonging to a
United States Baptist mission
hospital and looted others in
Ajlun. North Jordan.
There were no casualties
among the hospital staff when
the rioters attacked yesterday.
Among the rescued Americans
was Lloyd Lovegreen, the hos
!pital director.
Now all but four Americans on
the east bank of the River Jor-
dan have been brought to Am
man.
An estimated 300 Americans
are now in the capital, organized
under district wardens. A mime
Iographed bulletin. issued daily by
1.-THE United States Embassy,
warns them of the danger zones
and security arrangements.
Jordan has been the scene of
violent anti Western rioting
against the pro-Western Bagh-
dad defense alliance. Several
American installations have been
targets of rioters, including the
Point 4 installation at Aquaba,
the United States consulate in
the Jordan sector of Jerusalem,
and technical aid headquarters
in Amman. The American flag
was torn down in Jerusalem.

by Government scientists. There
has been no public intimation
as to the nature of the theory or
the experiments being under
taken in connection with it.
But it is known that not even
the idea that the fission and fu-
sion material of nuclear weapons
may somehow be rendered i'm
potent has been rejected by the
scientists.
While the new defense system
lis still just theory and no sci
entific breakthrough point" is
yet in sight, it is said that prog
Iress to date permits a cautious
hope.

this point, said that one i'm

would be further development

Inuclear attack"

cause there are no effective in

gence tasks" declaring that

the President said the board

as we'll as Congress that this
highly important and sensitive
work is being efficiently con-
Quoted"

Commission in a report to Con-
gress last June 90. Mr.. Eisen-
hover set it up after consulta-
ton with CHA Director Allen w

Mr.. Cremer testified that the
National Lead Co.. prime con-
tractor for the project, had rec
commended Merritt-Chapman &,
Scott as subcontractor to Mr.,
Mansure.
| He testified that on one &C.
caSion he was calling on Mr.
Mansure at his Office here in
Washington when Lewis NJ
Sehott, former executive vice
president of the Merritt concern
walked in with another repre-
sentative of that company.
The witness said Mr.. Mansure
instructed him to go into an
adjoining room with the Merritt
representatives land get to-
gether." He had said just before
this that Mr.. Mansure had urged
him to talk to the Merritt
people but made it plain that the
administrator wanted the Snare
people to run the Job.
Now Joint Venture
He said the Merritt people did
not have authority to do business
in Cuba and it took four and a
half months to get that author
ity. Snare, he said, had done
business in Cuba since 1902 and
had built the original Nicaro
plant.
He said that the joint venture
is now run by the Snare-Merritt
Co., composed of the two firms.
He said Merritt has one man in
Cuba and that the Snare Corp,
has $500. But, he added, he and
his company are in constant con-
sultation with Merritt officials.
Mr.. Cremer was questioned
about the circumstances under
which his company employed a
public relations man, Frank w.
Luther.
He said that Mr.. Luther's en-
ployment had been recommended
by Mr.. ManSure, but he said EN-
ployment Of a public relations
man had been considered by his
company before that.
He said Mr.. Luther is paid
about $500 a year and also
draws a nominal SUM of $50 Oh
500 a month as expenses.
He testified that his company
is old fashioned and does not
advertise. He said Mr.. Mansure
had told him that one of the
troubles with his company's
seeking to get the Nicaro recon-
Struction job was that it was
little known in the country and
in Congress.
