School Aid Measure Awaits Clearance Says Amendment To Bill Near Defeat WASHINGTON (INS) —An opponent of the Powell anti-segrega-tion amendment, which is holding up passage of the school aid bill, reported today that 205 members have promised to vote against it This is only 13 votes shy of a clear majority of the present 434 membership of the house, and would ordinarily be sufficient to scuttle the controversial amendment. A strong supporter of the school bill, who asked not to be identified, reported the figure as the result of a survey he has made among his colleagues. His estimate could not be confirmed. The school aid bill would authorize fl-6 billion in federal funds for school construction over a fouryear period, plus government loan and credit aids. It is sponsored by Rep. Augustine Kelley (D Pa.,) and is awaiting clearance to the bouse floor by the rules committee. ~._j Says Small Hydrogen Bomb Is Developed LOS ANGELES (INS) —The Los Angeles Examiner says U.S- scientists have developed the first hydrogen bomb small enough to be dropped from a plane.

Russia Trails In Major Industries Official Statistics Revealed By Kremlin UNITED NATIONS, N.Y. (INtj —Official Kremlin statistics showed today that Russia trails far behind the U. S. in major industries despite boasts of Soviet achievements. The 1955 UN statistical yeah book, containing for the first time figures supplied by Russia, deafly demonstrated that the U.S. and ths free world are far advanced economically over the Soviet bloc. _ _ Western economists closely studied the Soviet reports ae an index to the economic state of affairs behind the Iron Curtain. Previously the Russians had kept domestic production figures a well-guarded secret and westerneconomic experts had to rely Oh their own resources for indications on industrial progress in thh USSR. Furnishing of the data for the annual UN survey was regarded as another of the Soviet regime’ll general relaxation of controls following the death of Stalin. The yearbook, however, did not vouchsafe for the accuracy of the information. The yearbook showed that the Soviet Union cape dose to th* U. S, in production of coal, in which there has been a greater emphasis in the Communist bloc than in the U. S., but lagged far behind in crude oil, steel, pig iron, cement and electric power.

Nixon Studies Decision Over Vice Presidency Friends Say Nixon Deeply Disturbed On Political Plans WASHINGTON (INS) — Vice President Richard M. Nixon hopes to reach a decision on his political future in the next ten days. Intimates of the 43-year-old Californian said today be is deeply concerned about the possible disruptive effect on continued speculation over whether he will prefer a second term as vice president to some other government post They stressed that while he hopes to give President Elsenhower an early answer, it is by no means certain that he will feel able to make any public statement on the subject. President Eisenhower put the publicity spotlight smack on Nixon when he followed up his own announcement as a candidate by disclosing that he had advised the viee president to “chart hie own course" and let him know whether be wanted to run again. Friends of both the President and Nixon point out that Mr. Eisenhower himself is “observing the amenities’* by refusing to put himself in the position of saying what the Republican convention should do before it even meets. For that reason, there are some ranking Republicans who are advising that Nixon must say nothing, grin and bear it, and leave any further public statements to the President. They think, as a matter of fact, Mr. Eisenhower’s frankness already has caused him to say too much. Two Autos Damaged In Wreck Saturday Two cars were damaged in an accident Saturday afternoon on U.

REPORT ATOMIC _ (Continued From Page Ona) plaining this situation to the writer pointed out the window to the snow- that was falling heavily in Seoul on Sunday morning. He remarked that if the Communists ever should decide to attack again, they would probably pick a day like this, or one when flying conditions were bad. The atomic artillery weapon which the Communists reportedly have in the north could conceivably have blasted a breach through the American and Korean defensive line before allied air power could be brought to bea* against them. This is why American military authorities in Korea think those provisions of the armistice agreement which are being violated by the Communists but which still tie behind their backs one hand of the American and South Korean defenders should be abrogated. Under the armistice terms, neither side was to increase its military strength in Korea beyond that which existed at the time hostilities ceased. Nor was either side to replace existing military equipment with more modern weapons. As a result, the U.S. has no atomic artillery In Korea. It has no A-bomb carrying tactical air force stationed in Korea, nor any guided missiles. It is forbidden to replace any weapons — from planes to pistols — with modern ones. The Communists have developed airfields, brought in an estimated 470 jets, brought in modern military equipment, established 66 arsenals in the north—all in violation of the armistice terms. The Communists deny all this, but they hamper or refuse to let the so-called neutral nations in-

spectlon teams visit the areas where intelligence information reports the existence of the jet planes, new airfields, arsenals and modern weapons. These teams are composed of representatives of Poland, Czechoslovakia. Sweden and Switzerland. It requires unanimity for the teams to decide to investigate and report anything. Every time the Swedish and Swiss members propose effectively investigating reported armistice violations in the north, the Polish and Czechoslovakian members veto it. These teams, however, continue to operate in South Korea, keeping a close watch on the American military supplies brought into the country. The Korean government has accused the Polish and Czechoslbvakian members of the teams of engaging in espionage activities in the south. Public demonstrations organized by the government against them have led in the past to the stoning of American troops obliged under the armistice terms to protect them.
