At that time, he said peo-

The reason, he pointed out,
was that a chief was afraid
to leave his desk because
when ne got back he might
find another chief holding
down his seat"
'It got so bad" he added,
shat on one occasion the city
found itself with two chiefs

and others rallied around the
other"

1t wasn't too many years
ago that the Chief took a two

what have you. He covered
the distance in about Is min

by walking.
The Chief explained that i

Asked why he has curtailed

Condor Scores
H-bonlb Tests

ST. LOUIS. Mar. % (R.-Dr.
Edward U. Condor. controver-
sial former chief of the United
States Bureau of Standards,
said today thousands of persons
will die of bone cancer and leu
kemia as a result Of hydrogen
bomb tests.
This fact is a terrible in
dictment of our civilization and
of the governments that have
done it." DR.. Condor said in
q speech prepared for a con-
vention of the National AsSoci-
alton of Women Deans and
Counselors.
DR.. Condor, head of the
physics department at WASH
ington University, was the sub
ject Of a number Of loyalty in
lvestigations starting with an
inquiry in 1947 by the House
Committee on Un-American
Activities. He received security
clearances several times, but the
Navy suspended his clearance
on October 2. 1854.
"Vast Amounts Of Poison"
Hydrogen bombs produce
such vast amounts of radio
active poison. DR.. Condor said,
that such poisons have now
been found in the bones of
people, especially growing chill
dren, all over the world.
1T is no exaggeration to say
that many thousands of per-
sons in the world will suffer
agonizing death from bone
cancer and leukemia as a re-
suit of poison put into the
earth's atmosphere by hydro
gen bomb tests that we have
already conducted"
DR.. Condor accused DR.. Ed
ward Teller, known as the
father of the H-bomb. Of using
"a tactic of confusion" with an
"undocumented assertion that
bomb tests could be carried out
in a way that could not be
detected"

tempt was being made to out
maneuver the White House with
the new bill.
Senator Mansfield said he and
Senator Bridges share the view
that creation Of a single chief
of staff not only would make
the military too dominant in
the Defense field but would tend
to siphon away Congress power.
I'VE think that the collective
judgment Of the joint chiefs
is better than having to de-
pend on a single military ad-
wiser to the President" Mr..
Mansfield said.
Similar to House Bill
The bill, similar to a measure
introduced in the House by
Representatives Vinson, Demo-
crat Of Georgia; Arends. Re-
publican Of Illinois, and others,
would increase the RESPONSE
bility of the Joint chiefs over
unified military commands and
would give them direct access
to the Secretary Of Defense and
the President. They would be
given broader legal authority
to delegate to their chief depu-
ties many of the duties of OPP
Grating the individual services
they head.
Instead Of increasing the i'm
mediate staff of the Secretary
Of Defense and giving him
broader authority over military
spending-as the administra-
tons recommendations are ex-
pected to do-the Mansfield
Bridges bill would reduce the
number Of employees under the
secretary from 2,400 to 600.
The bill would eliminate IA
undersecretaries and assistant
secretaries.
