Split Develops In A-Committee
WASHINGTON. Sept. 27 tUPi An open split between the chairman and ranking minority jnember rent the joint congressional atomic energy committee today as it neared possible crucial decisions on American Atomic policy. Chairman Brien .McMahon, D„ Conn., in biting terms he previously has carefully avoided, accused Sen. Bourke B. Hlckeenlooper, R., la., of making ‘ extravagant . . . groundless accusations" against the atomic energy commission. He said in a statement that the committee in long hearings turned up “not one scintilla of evidence" to support Hickcnlooper’s charges that "loose security policies” by the AEG helped Russia step up her atomic time table. Hickenloopcr, who was chairman of the powerful atomic committee during the Republican 80th congress, said In a senate speech yesterday that he had no doubt the commission's laxity helped speed Russia's production of an A-bomb “by a very sub(Cnntlaned os Hs** Two)
