u. s. Offers to Join
In New A Ban Plan
Reds Refuse
Because of
Its Controls

GENEVA, April IA (AP).-
The United States offered to-
day to negotiate an immediate
agreement to ban production of
fashionable materials for mill
tary purposes.
United States Ambassador
Friedrich M. Eaton told the 10
nation disarmament conference
the United States is willing
to throw open all its nuclear
plants to International inspec-
ton and control If the Soviet
Union does likewise.
An international control staff
would supervise the conversion
of military fashionable mate
rials-including nuclear bomb
warheads-to exclusively peace
full purposes, Mr.. Eaton said.
Soviet Delegate Valerian M.
Zorin promptly rejected the
proposal, saying it contained
more control than disarma-
ment."
Trying to End Deadlock
Mr.. Eaton made his proposal
on behalf of his own and the
four other Western delegations,
Britain, France, Italy and Cam
ada. He said it was a Western
attempt to get the hopeleSsly
deadlocked conference into a
discussion of a concrete dis
armament measure.
The four-week-old confer
ence has been stalled by argu-
ment over mutually unaccept-
able plans for a world disarm-
ament treaty.
The cutoff and conversion of
nuclear materials is part of the
Western powers plan for grad
ual disarmament in three stages
under an elaborate control
system.
Need for Care
Mr.. Eaton's proposal elabo-
rated on this part of the West
ern plan for the first time. He
rejected the Soviet demand for
outlawing first use" of nuclear
weapons.
I'VE look upon nuclear dis
armament as being a series Of
actions in which we first must
deal with those measures that
appear verifiable, before at
tempting resolution of those
that presently do not" he SAID.
Mr.. Eaton listed the five ma
Jor plants which at present
produce fashionable materials
in the United States, and chal-
lenged the Soviet Union to do
the same. He named the plants
as Oak Ridge, Tenn; Hanford,
Wash; Aiken, S. c.; Ports
mouth, Ohio, and Paducah,
KY.
The location of all plants
in the nuclear industry in my
country is well known" he
said. THE Soviet Union to my
knowledge has never made COM
parable information available
to the world concerning the
number and location of in
stallationS in its nuclear indus
try that would come under in
spection in the event of a pro-
duction cutoff.

Dangerous drivers seem to be the

nosis, they revealed that they auto

were safe, brakes would work in

Drivers should consider cross
walks, marked or not. as extensions
of the sidewalk across the street,
and should always yield the right
of-way to any pedestrian in the
roadway at unprotected crossing
locations Pedestrians, however,
should be careful of all cars until
they actually stop at the crossing.
