Justifying sthis view are a

For the first time in more
than two decades there is a
strong possibility that an adj
ADMINISTRATION international pro-
posal may be turned down by
the Senate.
Responsible and knowledge
able leaders in both parties
are voicing grave concern about
certain provisions Of the treaty
which provides for United
States membership in the In
ternational Atomic Energy
Agency.
This is the background Of
the treaty:
In December. 1858, President
Eisenhower made q dramatic
speech at the United Nations,
setting forth the so-called
Atoms for Peace" program.
The foreign response was en-
thusiastic, particularly from
underdeveloped countries.
In the fall of 1856, as an
outgrowth Of the Presidents
speech. representatives Of eight
nations, including the United
States, approved a drafted
statute. Since it is actually a
treaty it must be ratified by
two-thirds Of the Senate before
our country can actually be-
come a member.
Hearings are now being held
before the Senate Foreign Re-
lations Committee, with the
participation Of Senate mem
bers Of the Joint Committee on
Atomic Energy.
On the surface, this organi-
cation may seem desirable.
But as more questions are
asked it becomes apparent that
the United States has been
out-negotiated.
These are the items which
are causing misgivings to our
legislators:

India. Indonesia, Norway,

was agreed that 1t has demon
strated the usefulness Of. and
the need for, a permanent q. N.
police force.
II there had been no emer-
gency police force, Representa-
tive Frelinghuysen said, there
would not have been the ac-
ceptance of the cease-fire
which did occur, and there
would not have been the SUBJ
sequent withdrawal Of the

forces from Egypt" OF the
function of a permanent force.
Representative Carnahan said:
Small wars are rapidly be-
coming obsolete in a world re-
lying on atomic weapons. Every
conflict today. however small
and isolated, threatens to
erupt into worldwide hydro
gen warfare. The sensible thing
is TO NIP potential war in
the bud, and one likely way to
do this Is by placing a United
Nations force between the
parties to any controversy.
Such a force would symbolic
world opinion. and 1t is ex-
tremely doubtful that partic-
ipants In such disputes would
risk fiouting this symbolic
world force
Senator Wiley said It would
have been wonderful had a
small-type constabulary U. N.
force been available at the
time Of the Hungarian revolu-
ton. It might have been flown
quickly TO Budapest on behalf
Of the U. N. and might have
served there as a symbol Of the
conscience OF the free world"
All Of the sponsors Of the
resolutions in House and Sen
ate were frank about the many
problems In connection with
creation Of a permanent police
force. conceding there are a
great many questions to which
they do not know the answers.
But they believe firmly that
this is the next step for the
United Nations and are hopeful
that an exchange Of ideas at
public hearings In the near flu
ture will supply some Of the
answers.

The United States Treasury.
the worlds greatest borrower.
has Just had its hair curled
by the bankers. The expert
ence has so shaken Treasury
officials that today they are
reluctant to speak of it.
Without any question, the
crisis at the Treasury is the
most important story in
Washington. It lacks per-
sonalities and its drama may
be obvious only to the flnan-
cial fraternity. Yet 1t will
have a profound effect on
everybody who owns a dollar
or hopes to get one.
Last week the Treasury
sought to refund more than
81 billion in short-term 13s
per cent notes. In exchange
it offered holders q choice Of
l1-month notes bearing 312
per cent interest or notes
maturing in four years and
10 months bearing 33s per
cent interest. The interest
offered was the highest on q

What happened to that offer
ing was Of immense i'm

Britain 20 kilograms; and the
United States 500 Kilograms.
Even at the lowest figure estab-
lished by the Atomic Energy
Commission, the quantity we
have allocated is worth $50
million. It is not clear whether
the material is being contri-
buted to the agency or is being

ing a dim view of our making

2. Once the material is made
available to the agency the
United States loses all control
Of the material and cannot
specify either the country to
which 1t will be sent or the
project on which it will be
used. Therefore it is conceiv-
able that American fashionable
material may be sent to Bull

lite.
3. Although the signatories
to the agreement promise not
to use the material for mill

feel there are no reliable safe

DAVID LAWRENCE

Secretary Of the Treasury
George Humphrey has been
bearing the brunt Of a good
deal Of criticism lately
throughout the country. Some
accuse him Of attacking the
Presidents budget" Others
say he predicted a depression
that will curl your hair" UNI
less the 1858 budget recon-
mended by the President Is cut
by many billions of dollars.
Partisans on Capitol Hill have
been INVITING the administra-
ton and seeking to exploit the
alleged contradictions.
But, If ever q man in public
life was misquoted or quoted
out of context, misunderstood
and misrepresented. 1t is the
present Secretary Of the
Treasury in relation to his
comments at q press confer
ence Of January Is last.
Fortunately. 3 stenographic
record was kept and was issued
to the press that same day.
This correspondent has just
completed q study Of what was
distributed by the various wire
services and what was printed
in most Of the newspapers
Immediately after the press
conference Of January 16. The
only conclusion that can be
reached is that the text Of
what the Secretary really said
and the impression conveyed
by some Of the wire services Is
considerably different. Here is
the exact text Of the question
that drew the response about
chair curling:
"Mr. Secretary. isn't nearly
all the talk here today about
cutting spending and cutting
taxes largely academic. as
long as the world situation re-
mains what it Is? Looking at
this budget, I find that the
lions share Of the increased
expenditures is for mutual
security and defense. Is there
any hope anywhere in the
world situation that you can
do any cutting in defense
spending in the next few
years?"
It is to be noted that the
