NO JU. S. WITNESS FOR MIKHAILOVITCH
ELGRADE, June 15 (U. P).— The court trying Gen. Draja Mikhallovitch today rejected a defense
counsel request that American witnesses be summoned “in the , Interest of a fair trial” The possibility of calling United tes witnesses was ruled out after Mikhailovitch himself professed a fear that the prosecution would “uss this as a chance to attack me.” “I ‘know these Americans would have much to bring to my defense, but I don’t want it,” Mikhailovitch told the court. Despite his opposition, his lawyer, Dragic Joksimovic, made the request. He named four Americans he wanted to testify—Walter Mansfield, former member of the American military mission to the Chetniks, Mike Merku and J. L. Levin, U. 8. airmen saved by Mikhailovitch and W. L. Rogers, described as president of a Mikhailovitch defense committee. Mr. Joksimovie, in agking the court to summon the Americans, acknowledged that he had been unable to get Mikhailovitch's agreement to the request.

WORLD ATOMIC
PLAN CHEERED
‘Many Senators Approve of
Control Proposal.
WASHINGTON, June 15 (U, P). — Many senators today expressed their approval of the United States’ program for world control of atomic energy. A few reserved judgment until reaction of other nations can be determined. The program was presented yesterday at the first meeting in New York of the United Nations atomic energy commission headed by Bernard M. Baruch. In addition to world atomic controls, the United States proposed to destroy fits atomic bombs or hand them over to an international agency. Chairman Brien McMahon (D. Conn.), of the senate atomic energy committee, expressed hope that other nations would accept the U. S. program, He termed the proposals a token of the United States’ “good faith” in international relation). Sees Important Decisions Referring to the U. N.'s atomic energy commission meetings, Senator McMahon said that “it is in New York, rather than at the Paris foreign ministers’ conference that the more important decisions affecting future peace be made.” Senator Edwin C. Johnson (D. Colo.) made it clear that the atomic control program cannot be divorced from the entire international picture. : He expressed “earnest hope” for a UN understanding on the atomic problem, but added that “everyone should realize that if there is another world war the atom bomb will be used . . . the nations will not go back to fighting with bows and Arrows.” Morse Indorses Plan
Senator Wayne L. Morse (R. Ore.) declared that international control over atomic energy is “absolutely necessary to maintenance of world peace.” He pledged his support to the administration “because it happens to be right on this issue.” The Baruch plan was injected sharply into senate debate only a | few hours after it was made public | yesterday, Senators James W. Huffman (D. 0.) and Scott Lucas (D, Ill), unsuccessfully opposing a resolution authorizing 33 combatant ships for the Bikini atom bomb tests, said the experiments would be regarded | by the world as a war-like gesture.
‘Fear Russia May | Reject UN Control
By UNITED PRESS American and British leaders were in accord today on the importance of the Baruch plan for the control of atomic energy. However, the shadowy fear that Russia may reject United Nations control of the bomb was injected in many comments. In London, a foreign office spokesman sald, “the plan provides an admirable basis for discussion.” He {said the government's official view
—C. Carroll Reece, national GO, P. | Would be stated later either by chairman, predicted today that the |
Foreign Secretary Ernest Bevin or by the British representative on the atomic energy commission. The London Communist Daily Worker, which often anticipates the official Soviet viewpoint, said, “If Mr. Baruch’s proposal ‘were adopted it would, to all intents and purposes, set up what in the last resort would be a world dictatorship.” BIRDS EAT HALF OWN WEIGHT WASHINGTON — Birds eat at
