Agreement Is Urged On Atomic Energy Leading Democrat Hopefuls In Debate MIAMI (INS) — Sen. Estes Kefauver and Adlai Stevenson have agreed that the East and the West must come to an understanding on atomic energy to preserve world peace. The rival Democratic presidential aspirants joined in declaring during an hour-long nationally televised debate from Miami Monday night that the dropping of an American hydrogen bomb in the Pacific last Sunday spurs the need for such an agreement. Stevenson predicted that "the future wil- leither be a future of greater creativity and abundance or a future of death, incineration and destruction.” The former Illinois governor said the United States must assume world leadership toward the "peace that Mi the prayer of all mankind."./ Kefauver asserted that “we cannever again live unafraid and undominated by the fearful prospect" of the H-bomb. / The Tennessee senator said that the U. 8. should ’t’ake the lead in proposing to the Soviet Union, an immediate cessation of further dropping of atom and hydrogen bombs." /But he added that “we dare not undertake such a grave responsibility alone.” Kefauver challenged a recent statement by Stevenson that the U’ S. should discontinue totting nuclear weapons. He said It was "inconsistent tc criticise the administration” for not being ahead of Russia in atomic development and at the same time suggest that the U- 8 quit experimenting with atomic devices. Stevenson denied that he sug gested the U. 8. allow the Soviet Union to take the lead in the atomic race. He said: “All weapons should be devel oped so we can keep the peace—indeed we must stay ahead ol them.”
