Add 3 Units
BY the Associated Press

The Army says it will beef
up three training divisions to
fighting strength and add them
to the ID combat divisions al
ready on active duty.
The Army also announced
yesterday that it will open Fort
Carson, Colo, September 7 as
a training facility capable of
handling 10000 men at one
time.
First task of the new train
ing center will be to provide
basic training for the men
needed to build up to combat
strength the 1st Infantry Di-
vision at Fort Riley, Kans.,
the I'd Infantry at Fort Ben
ming, Ca. and the I'd Armored
Division at Fort Hood, Tex.
The three divisions have been
used for training purposes and
currently are at less than half
the strength required for COM
bat readiness.
Fort Carson will be added to
10 other training bases which
have been in use for years.
Although used in a small way
in recent years, Fort Carson is
a large, permanent post.
1t was built to train noun
tain troops and others during
World War II and has sub
stantial facilities that are vir-
tually ready to begin training
new recruits.

Congress in Laos
Adiourns Without
Forming Regime

VIENTIANE, Laos, Aug. 8
(AP).-The national congress
adjourned yesterday without
voting King Savang Vathana
specific power to appoint a new
government for Laos.
Three princes who head Laos
pro Western, neutralist and
pro- Communist factions have
agreed to form e provisional
government representing all
three parties but stipulated it
should be named directly by
the King without assembly ap-
proval.
Meanwhile, in Geneva, the
14-nation Laos conference re-
ceived a report that the two
hostile armies are building up
their strength for a possible
new outbreak of the jungle
Kingdoms civil war.
The three nation control
commission in Laos said it was
receiving fewer complaints of
ceaSe-fire violations but lacked
the transportation and other
equipment for any effective
supervision of the ceasefire.
For this reason "the commits
sion has not yet been in a po-
sition to carry out any active
supervision" the report said.
From general observation it
would appear, however. that
some build-up of warlike equip
ment and other measures of
military preparedness are pro-
ceeding on both sides.

U. S. AssuiIed
At Anti-Bomb
Conference

TOKYO, Aug. 9 (AP).-Cor-
liss Lamont of New York City
and a Chinese Communist
scientist attacked President
Kennedy today at the Seventh
World Conference against Atom
and Hydrogen Bombs.
Mr.. Lamont said he believes
the United States Government
"haS adopted a dangerous and
aggressive attitude in foreign
relations"
Already in April of 1861" he
continued, that attitude took
ugly, concrete form in the
criminal, and unsuccessful, in
vasion of Cuban invasion
supported, planned and fl
nanced by the Kennedy admin
istration through the hateful
Central Intelligence Agency"
He said this was typical of
the American Governments
position that it has a right to
intervene directly or indirectly
in various countries throughout
the earth in order to crush
anti-imperialist and socialist
movements"
He called on the conference
to pass a resolution urging all
governments ito cease military
intervention in foreign coun-
tries and to eliminate all theil
military bases and forces within
the territory of foreign coun-
tries.
Prof. Chou Pei-yuan, vice
president of Peiping University
said "Kennedy's actions are
more dangerous than Eisen-
hower's." He said the Ameri-

A-BIast Shield
For $50 Seen
By the Associated Press

y
Experts believe that a high
degree Of protection against
nuclear blast, fire and radia-
ton can be bought for a cost
of between $50 and $125 per
person.
Associate Director Walmer
E. Strope of the Naval Radio
logical Defense Laboratory
based these cost and safety
estimates on four years Of test
ing.
He told the House Military
Operations Subcommittee yes
terday that group shelters
might eventually be mass-pro-
duced to protect 100 people for
Il days for less money.
Representative Ho1ifield,
Democrat of California, chair
man of the group inquiring into
the administrators new civil
defense program, introduced
MIR. Strope as an Outstanding
shelter expert"
6O% Seen Killed
The Navy official was sup
ported by Norman A. Hanun-
ian, specialist of the Rand
Corp, which has conducted
extensive nuclear warfare
studies for the Defense De-
partment.
Mr.. Hanunian estimated that
enemy delivery of 600 weapons
each yielding the explosive
equivalent of 5 million tons of
TINT might kill about so per
cent of the unprotected United
States population.
Fatalities would drop to
about As per cent if efficient
use were made of ordinary
basement shelters, Mr.. Hanun-
ian said, and could drop to as
low as 5 per cent if specially
constructed shelters were avail
able and people knew how to
use them.
Flexible Steel Arches
The shelters tested by Navy
and civil defense specialists are
flexible steel arch structures
rs feet wide. 48 feet long and
covered by several feet of earth.
Depending on their location,
Mr.. Strope said, they would
withstand blast pressure OF
from 10 to 35 pounds a square
inch. He relater this to sudden
preSSures of about five pounds
per inch that would demolish
most dwellings"
These shelters would also
protect against mass fires and
would offer ventilation and
workable sewerage with built-in
storage for a 14-day supply OF
food providing 1000 calories
and two quarts of water pei

powerful lobby in years" in an
attempt to block the plan.
Motion to Table
The first roll call was on
a motion by Democratic Rep
resentative Cannon of Mis-
souri, to table and thus kill
a motion by Republican Rep
resentative Van zandt of Penn
sylvania to instruct House
members of the Conference
Committee to oppose the item.
The second roll call adopted
the Van zandt motion.
The House last July Is voted
176-140 against the requested
$95 million authorization which
later was restored by the Sen
ate.
This $95 million item was
part of the 1925 million Atomic
Energy Commission authorize
ton bill which had been ap-
proved in different form by
House and Senate. The House
vote for specific instruction OF
it's conferees raised a question
as to the future of the overall
bill itself as we'll the Hanford
item.
Can't Bind COnferees
Representative Holifield
Democrat of California, told
the House that as a conferee
he would take "due cognizance'
of its instructions. But he said
he could not bind the conferees
He added that as chairman
Iof the Senate House Commit
tee on Atomic Energy he also
had a responsibility" to con-
slider the sentiment of that
committee which originally
recommended using the re-
actors excess heat for the gen
Grafton of electricity.
In the past, the Senate U.s.
ually has refused to take part
in a conference if House con-
ferees were bound by such strict
instructions at the outset.
Mr.. Holifield said that the
Republican motion today to in
struct the conferees was the
first of its kind in more than
10 years. Republicans replied
that this was the only parlia-
mentary weapon they had to
knock out the Hanford project.
Evening star., 1961-08-09

House members of a Senate
House conference committee
firmly oppose any effort to
retain the item.
The public VS.. private power
issue figured prominently in
the House dispute but several
other factors caused the coali-
ton vote that again blocked
the Hanford provision. One of
these was opposition by many
Democrats from coal-producing
States despite a Senate amend
i11ent allotting SIS million for a
coal research program.
The voting showed 154 Re-
publicans and 81 Democrats
against the Hanford project.
The 155 Democrats for it were
joined by only nine Republi-
cans, mainly from the North
west.
Senator Anderson, Democrat
of New Mexico, sponsor of the
measure in the Senate, said the
entire bill might be held up for
some time even if the Senate
agreed to a conference.
He indicated that the result
might be a bare bones" bill
merely authorizing essential
continuing funds for the Atomic
Energy Commission but not for
new projects such as the Han
ford plan, the coal research
program or a Stanford Uni
versity linear electron accel-
orator that would be the big
gest of its kind in the world.
The action by the House did
not automatically seal the fate
OF the proposed sos million
authorization for additional ia
ctlities so that excess steam
heat from the Hanford reactor
could be used to generate elec-
trical energy. 1t nevertheless
raised doubts that the item
would survive any House Sen
ate conference.
The two key votes climaxed
q, bitter debate in which op-
ponents of the Hanford pro-
posal charged that its Demo-
cratic congressional sponsors
had threatened to investigate
the private electric utility in

An example of this is the
obscure bill which was enacted
into law this year, virtually
without notice, to provide larger
annuities for legislative en-
ployes who transfer to the ex-
ecutive branch of the Govern
ment. When these employees
retire, their annuities will be
considerably larger than they
would have been heretofore.
Under the new law, these
employees will have their legis-
lative service computed at a 2l2
per cent rate for retirement an
nuity purposes. up to IS years
of such service.
Previously, legislative en-
ployes who switched to Federal
service did not get the 2l2 per
cent computation rate break
but had their services computed
on the lower rate that all Gov
ernment workers have-lla pei
cent for the first five years
l134 per cent for the next five
years, and 2 per cent for all
years in excess of 10.
In order for legislative en-

computation rate under the
previous law, they would have
had to return to service on Cap
itol Hill for at least II months
before retirement.
