Strauss Denies
H-Power Claim
BY the Associated Press

Chairman Lewis l.. Strauss
of the Atomic Energy Commis-

Of useful power from the hydro
gen bomb reaction ''is still re-
mote"
Mr.. Strauss issued a state
ment which seemed to discount
recent speculation in the Britt
isil press and elsewhere that
scientists are close TO harness
ing the fusion reaction for
peace.
He is attending the NATO
conference in Paris with Presi-
dent Eisenhower. He sent back
a statement. issued by acc
headquarters here, which said
it is completely false" to say
Britain "has suppressed an
nouncement Of success in the
control OF fusion reaction at
my request"
Mr.. Strauss also said:
1T may be important to re-
state that the development Of
economic thermonuclear power.

mote.
High Temperature Claimed
1T win not, therefore. inter-
fere with the necessary de-
velopment Of reactors for the
production of electrical energy

mentS."
Reports from the NATO
conference at Paris last week
said Britain shortly would an
nounce that British scientists
have succeeded in producing
controlled fusion. Several Lon
don newspapers have said Brit
ish scientists have achieved ul-
ira high temperatures which
are needed to produce q con-
troIled fusion reaction.
The London Daily Express
said two days ago that Britain
had agreed not TO claim '-fuIi
credit for the brilliant adj
vanceS" at the request of Mr..
Strauss. The paper said he
apparently feared trouble from
Congress II it became known
that Britain had forged ahead
of the United States in hydro
sen power research.
Information Shared
Presumably it was this report
which Mr.. Strauss labeled false,
although he did not say so d.
rectly.
He reiterated that Britain and
the United states have been
sharing information on the
project since 1856.
He said that in experiments
in both countries. neutrons
were produced possibly as
the result OF a thermonuclear
reaction. But whether this was
the case. he said, will only be
ascertainable as result OF
elaborate and protracted ex-
periments.
