JFK Pushes Button and Converted Sea Water Flows in Texas City

F'REEPORT, Tex. LR - Presi- dent Kennedy pushed button on his desk in the White House today and officially opened the nations first experimental plant to con- vert salt water into fresh.
 Kennedy said the research pro gram holds high promise for the improvement of human life and said i've intend to make the in- formation we learn available to all people"
 He called the project more i'm portant than any other scientific enterprise.'
 As he finished speaking fresh water produced at the plant flow ed from a 2-inch pipe near the speakers platform here and the more than 1 ,000 persons attending the ceremonies burst into ap- plause.
 The Freeport plant is one of five experimental plants being built by the government as part Of a broad research program into ways of converting salt and brackish water into fresh water and thus meet the nations growing water needs.
 The 5-million plant, first of five being built by the federal government, converts sea water into water so good it is purer than the water in most municipal water systems.
 The plant has 12 evaporators that heat the sea water to about 250 degrees. The steam, Wher condensed, makes the fresh water

Sherman Adams Says Korean War Ended By Threat to Use Atom Bomb

NEW YORK R - Sherman Adams says the Korean War was ended in 1853 as the result of an indirect threat by this country to use the atomic bomb.
 Adams, former assistant to President Eisenhower, says the idea for the threat came from Gen. Douglas Macarthur.
 Adams relates the incident in his book, First Report" :" which was published Tuesday.
 'MacArthur was sure that there was not the remotest chance we would actually have to carry out the threat" Adams writes. "The Communists would simply throw up their hands, and the war would be over"
 Adams said the threat was im- piled in government statements and in the movement of atomic missiles to OkinaWa.
 Eisenhower's closest friends, Adams relates, believe he might have considered running for a third term if there had been no Constitutional prohibition against it."

Confusion Hits Nationwide
 Maritime Strike

NEW YORK LR - Confusion created by the nationwide mari time strike grew today as top officials of the Longshoremen's Union broke apart over whether to continue to support it. Mean while, a work stoppage by the dock workers all but paralyzed New York Harbor
 The longshore Walkout was at a giant Battery Park rally. About 5000 gathered in a doWnpour of rain to hear their president, Will liam V. Bradley, urge support for the striking Seafarers' Unions.
 Before the rally began, how ever, a leading figure in the union said if other officials didn't re- quest a strike-ending injunction from President Kennedy he per sonnally would do so.
 This statement came from Tony Anastasio, longshore boss of the big Brooklyn waterfront and a union vice president.
 There was no immediate com ment from Bradley on Anastasio's remarks about a request for a Presidential injunction.
 To add to the confusion some seafaring union members were re- maining aboard tied up ships, drawing pay, while longshoremen were workless through observance of maritime picket lines.
 Negotiations between unions and management are at a virtual Standstill.
 The creeping paralysis of the maritime dispute has spread around the nation and has inn mobilized more than 100 liners, freighters and tankers.

 Diplomatic Status Of Czech Diplomat

UNITED NATIONS, N. Y. R- The United States told Com munist Czechoslovakia today it has revoked the diplomatic status of Miroslav Nacvalac, Czech dip lomat accused of spying. It said he now is subject to deportation as an alien illegally in the United States.
 A messenger from the U. s. Mission delivered a note to that effect to the Czechoslovak Mis- sion.
 The note declared that under the laws and regulations of the United States, Nacvalac may elect either to depart voluntarily, or in lieu of such voluntary de- parture, be removed"
 This was a warning that if he resisted Nacvalac would be sub ject to arrest and forcible de- portation.
 The note followed Tuesday nights U. s. charges that Nacvalac was an espionage agent and that the United States had pictures as proof of his activities.
 Dag Hammarskjold, U. N. Sec retary-General, was caught in a cross-fire from the United States and Czechoslovakia over the spy charges.
 The United States sent Ham marskjold a note charging that Nacvalac, handsome 39-year-old counselor at the Czech U. N. Mis- sion, is Prague's chief intelligence agent in America and that he paid an instructor at the U. S. Army Language School in Mon- terey, Calif., $1,700 for informal ton.
 The United States said it had pictures to prove it. The language instructor, Karel Hlasny, a natu- ralized American citizen born in Czechoslovakia, confirmed tn e U. s. account.
 The United States said Hsasny was cooperating with the U. S. government all the time and the information he passed was worth less.
 Naclavac said the U. s. charges were "all lies" and that he had never been in California. But U. S. State Department press officer Lincoln White displayed photo graphs of Naclavac and Hlasny he said were taken outside a San Francisco restaurant where they met.
