Sabotaging Atomic Energy
BY PETZR EDSON A
NEA Washington Correspondent
Washington,—Sabotage by the House Military
Affairs Committee of the Senate-passed McMahon
atomic energy control bill is rapidly driving the
scientist supporters of that bill to atomic distraction,
if not destruction. Most of the blame is being heap
ed on the bald head of the Hon. Andrew J. May of
Prestonburg, Ky., chairman of the House Military
Committee, because of his delaying tactics.
May is supposed to have agreed that his commit
tee would okay the bill as passed by the Senate,
then seek House Rules Committee approval “for
permitting amendments to be offered from the floor.
It was believed that this would speed up action.
When the House Military Affairs Committee -met
to consider the bill, however, Chairman May said,
“We will now proceed to read the bill.” ‘
Well, the bill is 46 pages long. It consists. of 20
sections, each about as important, over the lgng
haul, as anything that will be done by Congress this
vear. The congressmen proceeded to gXamine it line
by line, taking their own sweet time. In the first:
week of intense cerebral fissioning, the commiittee
got through only seven sections. ‘
REPUBLICAN LEAD THE BILL’'S OPPOSITION |
The chief objections to the bill come ffom half a
dozen Republican members of the committee—
Dewey Short of Missouri, Charles R. Clasan_ of
Massachusetts, J. Parnell Thomas of New Jersey,
Thomas E. Martin of lowa, Paul Shafer of Michigan,:
and Charles H. Elston of Ohio. Democrats Ewing
Thomason of Texas, John J. Sparkman of Aldbdma,
and Chet Holafield of California, with Bepiibfican
Leslie C. Arends of Illinois, want to get the bill out
but are helpless while reading the bill is the ofder
of business under Chairman May’s, n’ilin’,wg.“ b , :
The result is that a whole flock of amendments
are in the making which may well start 4 long fight
on the floor of the House, require long ddnf&rgnce
with the Senate to iron out differences, and delay
the bill interminably if not wreck it completely..lf
there is no action before Congress goes home in
mid-July, things atomic are apt to be in a terrible,
mess. . i o
Sections of the McMahon bill which the House
committee is considering for amendment include
not only the putting of a representative bf the armed
services back on the five-mun atomic energy com=-
mission, the provision abont which there has been
most discussion. Also at stake are the licensing and
patent arrangements, the fact that the government
would have monopoly control of manufacturing,
and the fact that private enterprise would not be:
able to take over the future of atomic energy and
develop it in its own way. |
PERHAPS MAY IS EVENING A POLITICAL
SCORE :
To Chairman Andy May, all this may be in the
nature of a swell chance to get even for a double
double-cross. Last fall President Truman sent to
Congress a War Department draft of a bill to con
trol atomic energy development Chairman May in
troduced it in the House and Edwin C. Johnson of
Colorado in the Senate. It was the May-Johnson
bill about which controversy raged all last winter.
Chairman May cracked his whip, with' full ad
ministration backing. They wanted full speed ahead.
May gave it to them. After short hearings, his House
Military Affairs Committee approved it.
Then everybody jumped on the May-Johnson bill
and on Andy May himself. The Senate junked it
and wrote an entirely new bill. The President, then
Secretary of War Robert P. Patterson and Gen.
Dwight D. Eisenhower backed out and gave their
support to the Senate bill. And that left Andy May
way out on the end of a long limb, holding & dead
and smelly duck.
So when Speaker Sam Rayburn came around
with the McMahon bill and asked Andy May for
some fast action, it is entirely possible that he may
not have been very enthusiastic. So they were in
a hurry, were they? Try to make a rubber stamp
out of him, would they? Well, they had been in a
hurry last fall and he had been a rubber ‘stamp
then. Now they could wait, even if the whole*world
had to hold its breath while his Military Affairs
Committee took its good old deliberative time.

Toward a Negative Equality
-In commenting on the Big Four deadlock over
Trieste, George Bidault, the French foreign minister,
made a remark which, though depressing and a
little puzzling, is at the same time curiously illumi
nating.
“What we really are seeking’ he said, “is an
equality of dissatisfaction.”
Thus it seems that the effort, firm resolution, ten
tative concession, hot words and cold logic expend-‘
ed in four meetings of the foreign ministers have
not even brought them to a point where they can
’agree to disagree.
“This is discouraging news for the v hole world.
But it is probably to be expected in what is surely
one of the most perilous and unpredictable periodsl
of peace in history. And at the moment there seems
no solution except to continue the search of which
M. Bidault spoke.
“Equality of dissatisfaction” is easier to compre
hend generally than to explain precisely. But it
‘must mean a sort of negative compromise in which
opposing objections can be brought near enough to
a state of balance to permit a step toward active,‘
positive co-operation.
| .So far Russia’s dissatisfaction has seemed to bel
complete in all matters of international discussion,
Ila'rge and small. The American and British attitudes
were for time more pliable. They seemed to be moti
vated by an earnest desire for free and friendly as
sociation, and an agreement for peace and harmony
on a'supra-national plane wnich would not interfere
too greatly with present domestic concepts and
practices.
. But concession found Russia as adamant and de
imanding as ever. Then our diplomaey took a turn
toward what has been described, aptly if over-l
lsim‘ply, as a policy of “getting tough with Russia.”
‘Maybe that is somewhat the same thing as M. Bid
ault’s more polite “equality of dissatisfaction.”
1 This was an almost inevitable countermove to
match a Russian diplomacy which seems born of a
_dgsir& _for “one world” of Russian design. Even in
ternational matters of passing importance are, to
isuch a diplomacy, reflections of a drift toward or!
away from that “one world.” Thus nothing is in~
;significant, in the Big Four or United Nations meet
;ings. Every indication of a deviation f'rom the Rus
sian design must be challenged and combatted. |
! It is-becoming increasingly clear that the defeat
of fascism settled only one profound political‘
question. Two others remain: Must the world be
dominated either by communistic dictatorship orl
‘cdnstitutional democracy, or can both governmental
‘ _sysféms exist in a friendly, peaceful world? l
On those questions an equality of dissatisfaction
may already be said to exist. The official Anglo
,Ainerican attitude is known to reject the former.
The official Russian attitude is apparently against
the latter. But an affirmative answer to that second
‘question is the only solution short of war.
“ijog_ress toward that affirmative answer will
gontinue to be slow and painful and disheartening,
,Qarring an immediate miracle. There may even be
ia complete, precarious standstill. But eventually thel
journey must be resumed. And if the world is to be
saved it must be along the road of tolerance and
freedom. ,
~ Enlisted Gentlemen
%Qy suspended the ‘“caste system” for the cele
bration when the first contingent of Navy wives
arrived in Japan. Enlisted men and their wives
jwere guests at an officers’ club—some said for the
first time in Navy history. '
,_l_r}x.connection with this precedent-breaking event,
lngpt. D. W. Decker, in charge of the Yokosuka
Navy Base, is credited with the following obserya
tion: “They behaved a lot better than some officiers
might have done under similar circumstances.”
We have heard some reasonably logical explana
|tions of the Navy’s enforced social distinction be
tween officers and men, much as, “you can’t work
the man you play with.” But we had never heard an
implied suggestion that the distinction arose from
& fear that the enlisted men might not know how to
behave themselves in polite society.
We hope that Captain Decker didn’t intend his
comment to sound quite as snobbish as it does, and
+that he-really wasn’t so surprised at making the be
-Ilated discovery that it is not necessary to be an of
ficer in order to be a gentleman,

The patient in 415 was suf
fering from biliary diabetes and
was now in a critical condition.
His skin was yellow as saffron
and he wag weak and inordi
nately depressed. He had been
in the hospital six weeks and
diready three nurses lad been
on the case succeeding each other
at two-week intervals. The ‘three
girls met in Sally Maynard’s
rcom one afternoon following tae
first night of her handling of the
case. Sally whio had slept until
3 wag dressing to go out for a
walk before dinner.
Norma Holden sat stiffly on
the window seat. Her mouth was
sullen ang her eyes stormy.
Somehow in spite of tae girl’s
obvious enmity for Sally May
nard, she persisted in haunting
her presence.
“Don’t try to tell us you
cdon’t mind 415, Sally Maynard,”
Dora cried. “Even if you say so
I wouldn’t believe you. Nobody
could possibly endure much less
enjoy that old reprobate.”
“] don’t understand how you
got it, Maynard,” Norma broke
in. her tone bitter. “Yours are
Inostly 'the hand-picked casps.
It's the rest of us who draw the
untouchables.”
Margaret Adamgs saw Sally’s
face change as Norma talked
and admired the girl’s self-con
trol.
“Mr. Fowler isn’t an easy
case,” she raplied. “But the man
is suffering anq terribly uncom
frriable.- It seems to me that
when we. who are nurses and
perfectly well, realize something
of what tlie patient is enduring,
it should make us forget the un
pleasont phase—make us eager
to help him.”
~ “Spoken like a true follower
of Nightingale,” jeered Norma
ceiting to her feet. “I’ll leave you
disciples of the ncble Flossie to
you: devotions and go some
place when the air is less rare
fieq. 'Bye. See you at dinner.”
The door closed after her and
{he remaining three stared si
lently at each other for along
moment bafore Dora Bronson
sboke
“Pon’t mind Helden, girls,” she
adviseq evenly. “She’s got a bad
case of internitis. She’s gone
commietely goofy over our irre
sistible Doctor Kildare and I say
devoutly: ‘God waelp her!” She
hasn’t had as much chance there
as a mushroom in (e of Mrs,
Bil'ings’ ragouts or whatever
sha calls them. And while we’re
on tae subiect of food,” she went
ons “my stomach is empty. Let’s
gn cul somewhere ond eat.”

“Let’s 2o to Lowe’s” Sally
caia “We’ll have time to make
it there and back before 7.”

ret Adams saia “Here I eat be
cause I have *‘c—not because
1 really enjoy eating. See wiat
ll mean?” . .
| Dora’s roguish eyes surveyed
the ample waist of the older
nurse and she grinned. “You
lock well nourished, Maggie,”
'sne said.
“I'm not really overweight for
my height,” Margaret countered.
“Maybe five pounds or so, but I
reed every vne of taem the way
1 work.” |
“t'cu're Sust righ.” Dora said |
coniritely, and laughed. “There
we go lagain—admiring teach
other, and don’t think its good
for us. Makes ‘us self-satisfied
and insular.” |
“Speaking of self-satisfaction,
girls,” Margaret said. “Have you
ncticed Doctor Hallock lately?
What’s become of his compla
cency? The man looks worried
and ‘almost unhappy. I wonder
waat’s happened.” Her eyes
searched the lovely face of Sal

“I hadn’t ncticed,” Dora said,
in reply to Margaret’s remarks.
“Maybe it's Holden. You know

Margaret shook her [head.
