the department and stated that
the small chemical truck was on
the scene only eleven minutes
after the call. Both the number
two and three trucks fought the
blaze and were able to limit the
main damage to the barn.
The homes of Freddie Powell
and Rodney Williams were Serl-
ously threatened by the blaze
and were saved only through the
efforts of the fire department,
who confined it to the barn
area. The Powell home was
badly blistered from the intense
heat.
1t is believed that had the fire
gained headway, it would have
destroyed at least seven homes
in that community, or virtually
wiped out the entire community
The entire community joined
in praising the fire department

of the fire until $50 a, M, Satur-

Crises Top Issues
AS Assembly Meets
BY WILLIAM N. OATS

I ehooSNANhNN AANSo 0bdh AOAlEopOnuEnt
/ UNITED NATIONS, N. Y.
Nov. l2.-The crises in Hungary
and the Middle East were the
two main issues before the
United Nations General Assem-
bly, as it gathered for the open
ing today of its 1856 regular ses-
sion.
Soviet military action against
Hungarian rebels and the Brit
ish-French and Israeli invasionS
of Egypt topped a list of 70 sub
Ijects awaiting assembly debate
at the 18th annual three month
sitting, perhaps the most crucial
in U. N. history.
The assembly stood ready to
take up either crisis whenever
Secretary General Dag Ham,
marskjold could report success
or failure in his attempts to get
U. N. observers into Hungary and
a U. N. cease-flre police force
into Egypt.
Admission of three new u. N.
members and the annual Soviet
bid to seat Communist China
were expected at the opening
meeting this afternoon.
China Rejection Seen
Morocco, Sudan and Tunisia,
already recommended by the Sc
lcurity Council for entry into the
U. ~. were deemed certain to
get the necessary two-thirds vote
of approval in the assembly. This
would raise the u. N. member
ship to 70.
But the yearly Soviet-bloc
effort to GUST the Chinese Ma
tionalists and seat the Peiping
Reds was another matter. Henry
Cabot Lodge. jr., head of the
United States Delegation, said
on the televised program "Press
Conference" last night Il con-
fidently expect that it will be
defeated"
One scheduled item of business
for the opening meeting was the
Isecret-hallot election Of the AS
lsembly's president. Prince Wan
Waithayakon, Thailand's foreign
minister, was unopposed for the
Office.
Besides the Hungarian and
Middle East issues, controversial
subjects on the Assembly's
agenda included the indepen-
ldence movements in French
ruled Cyprus; the Indonesian
claim to Dutch West New
Guinea the continued division
lof Korea. and the big powers
vain efforts to agree on disarm-
ament.

Fire Dunnooes
Atomic Plant

PADUCAH. KY, Nov. IL Dr.
Fire at the Atomic Energy Com
missions gaseous diffusion plant
near here early yesterday caused
damage estimated at more thar
So million to one of the plant s
smaller buildings.
K. c. Brooks, the Aces Padu-
cab area manager, who esti-
the damage, said there
was no radiation hazard created
as a result of the fire. He said
also there was absolutely nc
danger" to the surrounding area
or to personnel working in the
plant.
A preliminary investigation in
dicated the fire was caused by
overheating in a faulty piece OF
equipment.
The plant, Is miles west OF
Paducah, has nothing to do with
the manufacture or assembly OF
atomic weapons. 1t is a facility
operated by Union Carbide
Nuclear Co. for separating the
uranium 235 isotope from ura-
mum by the gaseous diffusion
method. U-235 is a fashionable
material which can be used in
weapons or atomic reactors.
c. J. Baker. a plant guard
captain, suffered a fractured leg
while fighting the fire. No others
were injured.
Mr.. Brooks said operation OF
the plant for the production of
U-235 would continue without
interruption. None of the main

soldiers as Gen. John j. Pershine
and Marshal Ferdinand Foch.
The intervening years had left
their mark on both the bugle and
bugler. But Mr.. Edwards stood
stiff and proud as he sounded
the call.
Saves Embarrassment
A gentle rain during the long
bugle call saved embarrassed
veterans an explanation for the
moisture on their cheeks as the
last notes echoed beneath the
Arch of Triumph. About 500
American veterans and an honor
guard of French airmen. soldiers
and sailors stood at attention
while Mr.. Edwards played at the
annual Armistice Day tribute of
Americans living in Paris.
Earlier in the afternoon, Mr..
Edwards also played taps at the
cemetery at Compiegne.
The march up the floodlit
Champs Elysees at the head of
the American Legionnaires and
a 30-piece United States Army
band was the fulfillment of a
long wish for Mr.. Edwards. He

to fan Arab nationalism to new
heights.
The most the British and
French may be able to claim
by way Of a positive gain out
OF their military adventure is
that they will have succeeded
in establishing at least tempo
rarily a degree OF international
control over key positions on
the Suez Canal.
But it remains to be seer
whether this can be used in
further negotiations with Presi-
dent Nasser to obtain the kind
OF permanent international OPP
Grating arrangement which
Washington. London and Paris
have all felt was essential to
preserve free navigation through
the canal. In this connection
Nasser has a strong card to
play also, for now that the canal
is blocked by sunken ships he
may be able TO Illustrate efforts
to open 1t again until he gets
the kind Of arrangement he
wants.
