Asks Millions For Atom Smasher

NEW YORK (UPI) — President Elsenhower announced Thursday that he will ask. Congress to commit 100 million dollors to build what may become the world’s most powerful atom smasher. The two-mile long electron accelerator has been proposed by scientists at Sanford University and will be built and operated on Stanford's Palo Alto, Calif., campus., by the government, Eisenhower siad. It is expected to take about six years to complete. The President announced plans for the mighty new research device to 250 of the ’nation's leading scientists gathered'Tor a syntP posium on basic research under sponsorship of the National Academy of Sciences, the American Association for the Advancement of Science and the Alfred P. Sloan Foundation. The 10 to 15 billion electron volt accelerator will be 50 times the length of the linear accelerator now operating at Stanford, currently the largest of its type. * Boosts Electron Speed It is expected to boost electrons to a soeed just short of the speed

Bitter Furore On Appointing Strauss Ends WASHINGTON (UPl)—Lewis L. Strauss appeared today to have a better than 50-50 chance of winning approval as commerce secretary from the Senate Commerce Committee. ’ Ty o Democratic committee members, Sens. John O. Pastore (R.1.) and .J. Strom Thurmond (S.C.) announced they would vote in favor of the appointment. Two other Democrats, Sens. George A. Smathers (Fla.) and Clair Engle (Calif.), said they had not decided how to vote. All six Rep-.'blicans were expected to back Strauss. Pastore, Thurmond and one other of the committee’s 11 Democrats would have to vote for confirmation in rder to send the nomination to the full The bitter thrae-mnth inquiry ended in furor Thursday. A woman spectator was ejected by police when she stood up and accused Strauss of financing the Russian revolution. Chair man Warren G. Magnuson (D-Wash.' said he would try to stage the vote next Tuesday. Other congressional news: Dillon—Sens. Hubert H. Humphrey (D-Minn.) and George D. Aiken (R-Vt.) members of the Senate Foreign Relations Com- i mittee, said opponents of foreign, aid policies should criticize the ; program and not C. Douglas Dillon, awaiting confirmation as ■ undersecretary of state. Sen. Russell B. Long (D-La.), a foreign aid critic, threatened Wednesday to delay confirmation if the Sen-

1 of light, which scientists believe ’ cannot be exceeded. Not even ' nuclear explosions have produced ‘ such high energy electrons, al--1 though they are sometimes created in the atmosphere by cosmic ; rays. The speeding electrons are eK- ! pected to release new particles and anti-particles as their energy bombards the nuclei of atoms, ’ thus leading to further understanding of the nature of matter and . the forces which hold it together \ Eisenhower told his audience that the development of the ac- ( clerator must become a federal . responsibility because the research tool is too expensive for any private enterprise. At Stanford, Dr. Edward L. i Ginzton, 43-year-old Russian-born physicist expected to build the accelerator, said he hoped negotiations wito the AEC for construction can begin by July 1. He said it would take more than a year to design the atom tunnel and that ground probably will not be broken until October, i 960, at the . i earliest.

County Churches May Form Bowling League The Adams county church athletic federation, meeting at the Monroe Methodist church Thursday evening, decided not to form a softball league this year, due to the lack of interest. Possibility c forming a bowling league was oiscussed. The new • bowling center which will be 10-1 1 cated on U. S. 27, north of Berne, has offered facilities to the feder- ‘ ation for league play Thursdays and Fridays under the usual team entrance fee and individual mem- • ber’s expense. Churches interesfed ■ in such a league are asked to con- ! tact Emmett L. (Anderson, 121 , South Fourth St., no later than the May 29 deadline. s i ~ ate did not give him plentv of time to dsicuss Dillon’s qualifications. i ‘ Aid— A parade of administration j 1 witness supported President Eis--1 enhower’s $3,900,000,000 foreign ' aid program before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Blind— Sens. Joseph S. Clark ■ (D-Pa.) and Hubert H. Humphrey: (D-Minn.) planned to introduce a bill to establish a nine-member presidential commission to study | the problems of the nation's 350,-■ 000 blind persons. In major developments late Thursday the Senate and House approved and sent to the White House a $2,900,799,370 money bill to tide over a number of federal I agencies until the new fiscal;, iyear starts July 1. The Senate' okayed the outlay after giving up , ! its attempt to tack on an amend- : ment that would prevent Presi- , dent Eisenhower from carry out planned Army and Marine manpower cuts. • . i

Russians Advance Rapidly His colleague, Germa n-born Wolfgang Panofsky, 40, expected to operate the accelerator, said he would not be suprised if the Russians are able to test a 50-billion electron volt cyclotron before the new U. S. linear accelerator can be readied for testing. “On the whole the Soviets are moving very rapidly in this field,” •Panofsky said. Dr. Albert Crewe, head of the particle accelerator section at ■ Argonne National Laboratories, in • Illinois, said the Presidnet’s an- [ nouncement “is very good news. ■ Its going to be a very unique • machine. We ' even learn things from the bare construction of it. ’ Eisenhower’s speech wound up i a day during which he had turned • the first spade of earth • York’s 75-million dollar Linclon • 1 Center for the performing Arts 11 and visited the World Trade Fair at the New York Coliseum. He, ; i returned to Washington in his ■ ■ plane Columbine 111 from La- • j Guardia Airport immediately ! after the dinner.

Two Boys Held For Attack On Woman ' MARION, Ind. (UPI) — Two youhg brothers from Indianapolis were in custody today in connection with the abduction and slash- ; i ing of an Army psychologist’s . wife. . I Victim of the attack late Thursday '*was Mrs. Jane Munday, 43, Indianapolis, wife of Dr. John P. ’ Mundy, who is attached to Fort ’ Benjamin Harrison. 1 Mrs. Mundy told police she found the boys, one 16 and the other eight, in her home Thursday evening after she returned from visiting neighbors. She said the oldest youth rushed at her with a hunting knife and threw her to the floor. I She was then forced into the family car, she said, and told to drive toward Marion on Ind. 37. i Mrs. Mundy said she talked to the i youths as she drove in an attempt 'to calm them, and finally ran the ear into a ditch north of here when she saw a truck coming One of the boys slashed her on the shoulder as she fled toward the truck. i The youths ran across a field and were captured a tew pours i later by sheriff’s deputies. Police ■ said they will be turned over to Indianapolis authorities for prosecution. Mrs. Mundy was treated at Marion General Hospital and released. Her husband said he didn’t know why'his wife was kidnaped. “Frankly, I can’t say why they did it.” he said. “Apparently they! Were hungry. The first thing they j did when they got into the house was get some cheese and crackers.” Mundy said the boys apparently forced his wife into the car because they “wanted to get out of Indianapolis.” Anderson Man Dies Os Crash Injuries INDIANAPOLIS (UPl)—William McKinley, 23, Anderson, died today in a hospital here a day after a- car in which he was riding smashed into a tree. The driver was Robert Timmons, 22, Indianapolis, who lost control in front of his wn home. The car skidded over a curb and hit a tree in Timmons’ front yard. RUSSIA Continued from page one High American and British officials said the three Western allies had no intention of giving in to anticipated Russian demands to dissect the Western proposal and argue each piece bit by bit. And they were waiting with crossed fingers for Gromyko’s reaction. Even the Soviet spokesman who called the plan unrealistic said, “we could not give our reaction at random without having an opportunity to study this in detail.” Lfoyd Presides Today It was British Foreig, Secretary Selwyn Lloyd’s turn to prreside as the Big Four began its fifth day of deliberations on Berlin, Germany and European security. French Foreign Minister ter Maurice Couve de Murville, though’present Thursday as chairman, still .was ailing with flu and might not attend. The Russian plan already has been sent to the Big Three Western powers — qnd rejected by them. It calls for: 1. Withdrawal of Western forces from West Berlin which would then become a demilitarized “free City" 110 miles inside Communist East Gertnany. 2. A 28-nation peace conference to write a peace treaty with each of the two Germanies —a plan the West thought would seal the division of Germany and perhaps East Europe as well.

Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev, in a speech Thursday at Kishinev, near Odessa, said Russia stood firm in Ist views that the Allies must get out of Berlin and make it a free city. He also said the reunification of Germany was a question for 4he two governments to decide inemselves.

House Group Clamps Down On Subsidies WASHINGTON (UPD - The House Appropriations Committee clamped down on soil bank subsidies today but still approved more money tor farm programs than President Eisenhower asked. The committee sent to , the House floor for action next weak a $3,939,165,498 agriculture money bill. The bill proposed farm program outlays over the next two years that would run at least 100 million dollars higher than Elsenhower proposed. The committee chopped 50 million dollars from the administration’s 1960 spending plans for the soil bank. But it vetoed a 150-mil-lion-dollar reduction proposed by the President for die agricultural conservation program. Under the soil bank, farmers receive rental payments for taking land out of production under long-range contracts. The committee said the-program has been ineffective in curing surplus production. Under the conservation program, farmers are paid cash subsidies for carrying' out approved conservation practices. The President has sought in vain for several years to get Congress to curtail the payments. Die committee voted to keep it going in 1960 at the current level of 360 million dollars a year. Cardinals Fuxtice Saturday Afternoon Al Gillig. manager of the Cardinals of the Pony League, announced today that a practice session for all team members, both returning members and new candidates, will be held at Worthman field Saturday afternoon at 1 o’clock.
