THREE POWERS K'nwt tawed From Page Owe) asked for a ‘‘maximum and final ‘ list" of her territorial and economic demands In Asia and Europe. Attlee's position was that the only demands to be considered would be those regarded by the UHSH us vital to her national security. A big three conference then would be held to examine face-to-face the Russian position, if Britain ami the United States > agreed that the Russian demands were acceptable for a ‘'final'' settlement, efforts would be made to sec Ilia! they were granted — but again only on lite condition of complete Soviet adherence, support and cooperation with UNO on future issues. .Mr Truman In his public utterances has taken the position that the secret of the atomic huntb — the technical know-now if Its production — should be held right where it is now until the world peace organization is sufficiently powerful to control its use. Ami ultimately, the president looks forward to a world In which the use of atomic energy for destructive purposes will be outlawed. Russia In recent weeks has been openly restive uliout the atomic bomba. Foreign commissar V. M. .Molotov last week warned sharply that atomic energy must not be
swung as a club for political strength, fie promised the Russian people they would have atomic energy and "many other things.” Russia's attitude was represented as having led Attlee to the conclusion that the United Slates. Great Britain and Canada must find away to share the bomb secret with all permanent members ot the i'No security council, in addition to the U. S. and Britain, the permanent members are Rus sla. France and China. Attlee, however, wants a guarantee that future discoveries of similar nature will be shared by all parties to the pool of secret weapons. Yesterday's conference was held after the president, Attlee and .Mackenzie King attended Armistice day exercises at Arlington national cemetery.
