NATO AS A-POWER
TO BE DEBATED

LONDON, Mar. 2 (AP).-
British government sources
said today defense ministers of
the North Atlantic Treaty Or
ganization will debate at a
meeting later this month a
plan to make NATO an atomic
power, The proposal was re-
ported backed by the United
States.
This would supplement plans
announced by Gen. Lauris Nor
stad in Paris today to create a
special Am erican-British-
French tactical nuclear task
force within the alliance.
The project described by Gen.
Norstad was viewed by British
authorities as a first step to-
wards a wider, more unified
system Of allied cooperation in
the nuclear weapons field.
Informants said a network
Of jointly run air supply in

Strategically located air base
is envisaged. The expectation
here is that West German and

Speed Asked
In CIeurino
Stun Areas

A representative of the de-
velopment firm which is re-
building much of Southwest
washington last night urged
speeding up Stun clearance.
William L. Slayton. vice
president of Webb g. Knapp.
Inc, told the Washington
chapter of the American So
ciety of Civil Engineers that
redevelopment of slum-cleared
land invariably takes more
time than normal develop
ment."
He said delays are costly to
the redevelopers and pleaded
for more rapid action in exc
cutting contracts, closing streets
and granting approvalS."
Mr.. Slayton was referring
to the processes in which pub
lie agencies condemn and clear
Slum properties and then sell
or lease the land to private
developers such as his firm. In
most cases. the redevelopment
requires closing of old streets
and building Of new express
ways and utility lines.
The sale or lease of the land
TO the developer and the plans
for rebuilding the slum cleared
areas usually are reviewed at
public hearings and are sub
ject to approval by city Of
flcials.
Integration, Mr.. Slayton
said, is one Of the major prob
lens facing the redeveloper.
"In most cities" he said,
'the redeveloper must follow
a policy of open occupancy
and with that requirement we
don't quarrel. Nevertheless,
this makes the redeveloper
somewhat Of a social expert
menter; he must devise meth
DDS t perSuading white families
to live in the area and to send
their children to integrated
schools :"

Eisenhower
Proposed for
Keynote Talk

CHICAGO, Mar. 2 (AP)-
President Eisenhower has been
mentioned as a probable key
note speaker for the Republic
can National Convention in
Chicago in July.
Jaren L. Jones of Salt Lake
City, vice chairman of conven-
ton arrangements, told news
men yesterday, many party
leaders favor the President for
the opening address and that
his acceptance could be con-
sidered a probability.
The cost of the Presidents
trip to Chicago would be borne
by the Republican Party, not
by the Government, Mr.. Jones
said. Mr.. Eisenhower would
be welcome to stay in Chicago
for the duration of the con-
vention- starting July IS, al
tnougn IL is doubtful he would,
Mr.. Jones added.
The possibility of an incum-
bent Presidents appearance in
a speaking role was Drought up
at a news conference when re-
porters asked If any innovations
could be expected at the Lin
coin centennial assembly of the
party. The Republicans nomi-
mated Abraham Lincoln in Chi
cago in 1860.
Mr.. Jones said it is likely
that former President Herbert
Hoover, a speaker at past nomi-
mating conventions, will be in
vited to give a major address.
Mr. Jones said he expects
convention sessions will be
limited to one a day and timed
to catch the largest possible
television audience across the
country.

Senator Dirksen that the de-
cision be printed in the Record.
The Record came out today
with a laundered version of
Senator Eastland's denuncia-
ton. In the edited version,
Crap" had been changed to
"claptrap" and "tripe" became
useless materials"
Senators have the privilege
of revising their remarks be-
fore they are printed.
At one point last night, Sen
ator Eastland pointed toward
the galleries and labeled as

who had laughed when he said
Communists had more influ-
ence in the United States Fed
eral judiciary than in any coun-
try in the world.
Another verbal tilt occurred
when Senator Douglas, Demo-
crat of Illinois, a leading ad-
vocate of civil rights, was
blocked temporarily in trying
to introduce an amendment.
Senator Douglas accused
Democratic Leader Johnson of
Texas of deception because, he
said. Senator johnson and Re-
publican Leader Dirksen left
the impression Monday they
had worked out an agreement
to permit introduction of
amendments.
Senator johnson said there
was no deception, that he had
made it clear that one OBJ
lection could block such intro
duction. Then the Texan
persuaded the Southerners to
let the Douglas amendment be
filed.
