United States Pushes Toward International Set-Up For Peaceful Usage Of Atomic Power UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. » — The United States pushed new plans today to set up an interna- tional agency to foster peaceful use of atomic power, with or with- out Russian cooperation. Secretary of State Dulles out- lined the four-point proposal in a major U.S. policy speech in the ninth U.N. General Assembly yes- terday afternoon. AFL Strike Against 5 Stores In Pittsburgh Stands Among Developing the ideas set forth| in President Eisenhower's speech to the U.N. last December, the! secretary called for: 1. Creation of an international agency to include ‘‘nations from all regions of the world.” Dulles said | it is hoped the agency will start work ‘‘as early as next year.” | 2. Holding of an international sci- | entific conference under U.N. aus-| pices next spring to consider the| “whole vast subject’ of the peace- | ful use of atomic power. | 3. The opening in the United States early next year of a reactor | training school ‘where students | from abroad may learn the work- | ing principles of atomic energy} with specific regard to its peace-| time uses.” 4. Invitations to a ‘‘substantial number”’ of foreign medical and surgical experts to work with atomic energy techniques in U.S. cancer hospitals. | Dulles’s proposals brought im-| mediate expressions of approval from many other U.N. members. Henry Cabot Lodge Jr., chief U.S. delegate, called for a meeting of the U.N. Steering Commit- tee to put the proposed plan on the Assembly’s agenda as an ‘“‘impor- tant and urgent question.” The top-level WN. executive group in a hurried session after Dulles spoke broke its five-day week plan and scheduled a meet-| ing on the atomic plan for Sat- urday. The 15-nation committee, which decides whether to include items in the agenda, includes the United States and Russia. Debate on the agenda item may show what posi- tion the Soviets intend to take in the later Assembly debate. Rus- sia’s Andrei Vishinsky declined to discuss the speech with reporters. Dulles’ speech disclosed that the Russians on Wednesday asked for new talks on President Eisenhow- er’s original proposal. They had given it a cold shoulder in all pre-| vious talks. Dulles said the Soviets would talk about atoms for peace. The U.S. secretary said the So- viet Union had in effect rejécted the plan last April when it said| substantially it could not agree to t unless the United States joined in a “paper ban” on use of atomic weapons. “The United States remains ready to negotiate with the Soviet Union,” Dulles told his intent au- dience. “But we shall no longer suspend our efforts to establish an international atomic agency. . . . “I would like to make perfectly clear that our planning excludes no nation from participation in this great venture. As our proposals | ake shape, all nations interese® :n participating and willing to take ?| mm the responsibilities of member- ship will be welcome to join with | us in the planning and execution of | |By WILLIAM A. SWARTHWORTH PITTSBURGH - (®—A_ 10-month |strike of 12 AFL unions against Pittsburgh’s five largest depart- ment stores stands as one of the most violent in this steel city’s history. Vandalism and picket line dis- turbances have marked the strike since it began last Nov. 27. Vio- lence has increased in recent months and police fear new out- breaks may come anytime. Officers patrol sidewalks in front of the stores on a 24-hour basis, seven days a week. Squad cars prowl the streets at night. There is an air of tension at the stores. On at least three occasions quick police intervention prevented pick- et lines scuffles from developing into full-scale riots. Damage includes 29 display win- dows shattered and many damaged by glass cutters with the loss es- timate at about $40,000. Three truckloads of furniture have been set afire. There have been numer- ous paint bombings of buildings and private homes. Police have arrested 106 strikers and persons described as ‘“‘sym- pathizers” on charges ranging from disorderly conduct and as- sault with intent to kill to felonious burning and inciting to riot. Sixty-one of the 106 were fined; 31 were discharged; 1 was turned over to juvenile court and 13 were held for grand jury action. Eleven of the 13 have been indicted and await trial. According to police, most of those arrested are members of striking AFL General Teamsters Local 249 and AFL General Ware- housemen Local 636. The two unions have supplied a majority of the pickets. Five store employes working as messengers also have been indic- ted on charges of riot and inciting to riot as the result of a fracas with pickets. Stores struck are Gimbel’s, Kaufmann’s, Horne’s, Rosenbaum’s and Frank & Seder. The teamsters local, which had about 800 members employed at | the stores, touched off the strike after negotiations deadlocked on two contract issues. They are: 1. Whether.the union or the stores should have the right 10 designate when {parcel post is to be used for making deliveries in certain areas, 2. Whether the union or the stores should have the right to dete:- «nine when helpers are needed on package trucks. Shortly after the drivers walked Most Violent In City’s Annals out, members of 11 other smaller, AFL unions struck in contract stalemates on an array of issues including wages and working con- |ditions. Neither specific demands or pay scales have been disclosed Altogether, nearly 5,000 store employes left their jobs. About half, the stores report, subsequent- ly returned to work even though their unions still were striking. Some 7,000 employes, many of them members of four CIO clerical | unions, never left their jobs. | Store officials have declined to reveal figures on sales volume! since the strike started. Most esti- mates put the over-all drop in| business at between 25 and 40 per | cent. | With regular truck deliveries shut off, the stores turned to par- cel post and also are having goods shipped directly from manufactur- ers to customers.

Nation’s Rejection Of Preventive War Concept Hampers Armed Power PHILADELPHIA (#—A Pentagor official says America’s military power is reduced in some respects by the nation’s rejection of the concept of preventive war. H. Struve Hensel, assistant sec- retary of defense, added, however, that America is ‘militarily strong- er by far than its challenger.” In a speech at the Golden Slip- |per Square Club, Hensel said he is opposed to preventive war, but added: “It may be debatable . . . wheth- er we should wait for a surprise attack by the enemy before de- ciding that there is no alternative” to making war. He declared that “we are pre paring ourselves to fight success- fully when and as the threat to our security reaches the point where war is the only acceptable alterna tive.” Hensel said U.S. policy still seeks a powerful military alliance in Eu rope with France as a “pillar of strength” and with Germany a fu!l and equal member. He warned against delay in achieving collective security in Eu- rope, saying “the French delays over the past years have cost us valuable time.” 7 CITIZEN ADS BRING RESULTS | 00 TRADE-IN FOR YOUR REGULARLY $309.95 LESS $70.00 TRADE-IN OU PAY ONLY Now you can enjoy one of America's best labor-savers . washer.
