The Washington Notebook
BY PETER EDSON
NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON.— (NEA) —A proposal that the
United States withdraw from further United Na
tions consideration of the so-called Baruch plan for
international control of atomric bombs and atomic
energy production recently has been made by
David E. Lilienthal.
Mr. Lilienthal is now a private business consult
ant, but he was formerly chairman of the Atomic
Energy Commission. Before that he was chairman
of a small group of leading American scientists and
industrialists who in 1946 drew up the first plan
for international control of atomic energy materials
and production. So Mr. Lilienthal is now in effect
disowning his own brain-child.
After the Lilienthal plan was announced, it was
refined for presentation to the United Nations un
der the direction of Bernard M, Baruch.
An international atomic Authority was to be es
tablished. It was to have the right to enter any
country, make land and air surveys, manage nrines,
check accounting, make reports. Manufacture of
atomic weapons was to be banned hy all countries,
but development of atomic energy for peaceful pur
poses would be permitted, under inspection.
No country would have veto power over the Au
thority. Violators of its decisions would receive
swift and certain punishment. In exchange for these
guarantees, the U. S. would share its atomic secrets
with the world.
These are the essentials of the plan which Mr.
Lilienthal, in answer to a question by this reporter
on a “Meet the Press” television interview, says the
United States should now abandon. His reasons are
simple and direct.
HERE ARE HIS REASONS
First, Russia now has atomic bombs of its own.
So there is no big secret for the U, S. to share with
the rest of the world.
Second, Russia has shown in the six years since
the end of World War II that it has nv intention of
allowing representatives of other countries to have
free movement within its borders. International
inspection is the key to effective atonric energy
L£ontrols.
{". S. government officials, however, express no
: syuxz‘)athy'for the Lilienthal idea of withdrawing
the Baruch plan for atomic energy control. “We're
still for peace, even though it's impractical,” says
Cordon Arneson, State Department advisor on
a.omic energy matters. Ultimate international con
trol of atomic bomb production is considered the
or'y possible answer.
“_he international control plan proposed by Mr.
Boaruch has been periodically reviewed by the U. S,
Atomic Energy Commission. Chairman Gordon
Dean and Commissioner Henry D. Smyth have
talien special interest in the subject. AEC scientists
believe there are adequate checks for keeping the
wmost accurate books on production of fissionable
materials. These controls would also be” effective
in hydrogen bomb production, since the A-bomb
tt 7oers the H-bomb.
Furthermore, a group of 26 congressmen, headed
by Genator Ralph Flanders of Vermont, last March
uried President Truman to seek complete disarm
ament through the United Nations, and to keep
pressing for this goal until it was achieved. “Com
plete disarmament” naturally includes a ban on
atomic weapons, under international controls.
R7SIA KEEPS THE DOOR SHUT
Actually, the United Nations has been moving in
th s direction ever since last October. That was
when President Truman proposed that the UN deal
with both atomic energy control and limitation of
conventional armaments at the same time. Up to
now, two commissions have been working on the
two problems, separately. Both have admitted they
were stalemated by Russian refusal to permit in
spections or a census of armaments.
The Russian proposals have been for all countries
to reduce armed forces by a third and to ban atomie
weapons first, before taking up the question of con=
trols. The Russians have also refused to sanction
inspection of any kind. That's what stymies dis
armament moves. No meetings of either the UN
atomic energy or conventional armaments commis=-
sions were held last year, because the Russians
walked out. .
A UN committee of 12 has held three meetings to
explore the possibility of combining the work of
these two commissions. The committee’s members
are representatives of the Security Council, plus
Canada. Frank C. Nash is the American represen
tative.
. This committee is now considering an American
plan which calls for two things. First, “regulation,
‘limitation and balanced reduction of all armaments
and arnred forces, including international security
and police forces.”
Second, “The UN plan for international control of
- atomic energy and the prohibition of atomic weap
ons should continue to serve as the basis for any
- plan for the eontrol of atomic energy unless and
until a better and no less effective system can be
E devised.”

Narcofics Sellers Are The Real
' |
Dope Fiends; Get Them!
For the teen-age victims, it began as a lark—an
excursion into the unknown, like the first ride on a
roller-coaster. Or it started as a challenge —the
proof of daring so they could keep up with the
crowd and not be called a “square.”
Then the roller-coaster became something they
could not get off. In place of “squares” they became
“junkies,” “mainliners,” and other names in a
strange doped-up jargon that is finally beginning to
shock America. Instead of a lark, it was a down
hill ride with little chance for anything at the end
but tragedy. ‘
These were the youngsters the nation suddenly
pecame aware of after their stories were aired in
New York and later before the Senate Crime Inves
tigating Committee in Washington—stories of kids
who but for the grace of God could be ours. These
were the kids enmeshed in the growing drug peril,
addicts whose lives are pretty sure to be ruined no
matter what we do for them now.
How did it happen? Some blame it on a general
break-down in family life. Others say it starts in
the slums and breeds on delinquency, or that the
new American credo has put too much emphasis on
“being accepted by the gang.”
All of these ideas, added together, are only part
of the answer. The big factor is that the stuff that
makes dope addicts is available — as available, in
many cities, as ice cream and candy.
How can we stop it? By going to work on the real
dope fiends, The fiends are not the ones who use
mrarijuana, heroin and cocaine; they are too smart.
They sell it, and the customers have to keep com
ing back for more and more, until they will do
almost anything—as the customers themselves have
testified—to get the ‘“stuff.”
The fiends are the “pushers,” who like to get their
customers young, because teen-agers are suscept
ible, and once they get started, will get other teen
agers to go along with them. U, S. Narcotics Com-~
missioner Harry J. Anslinger figures there are
10,000 youthful addicts now, triple the number
since 1950. The fiends—the “pushers”—are willing
to give away samples, the evidence shows, to get
another steady customer.
For the peddlers, it is big business. And the over
head is low, overhead in this case being the price
the peddlers have to pay when they are nabbed.
Anslinger points out that the average sentence, up
to now, has been 16 months. What with pardons,
paroles, and commuted sentences, a peddler re
gards punishment like that as a vacation,
~ What would happen if we got tough? The same
thing that happens when the rats find there is
poison around the corn crib. In St. Louis, Anslinger
points out, an 18-year sentence for a convicted ped
dler started the rest of them running out of town.
Other things would help, too. Although Anslinger
does not agree, many experts put up a sound argu
ment for education—a carefully planned program
to drive home to our youngsters the horrible facts
of dope. And it is only merciful that we take steps
to provide hospitals where those who have already
been victimized can be treated, even if the treat
ment is only a dim hope for escape from the
nether-wor@ of addiction.
There is a chance for the rest of our children.
There are laws pending in Congress and in nrany
states that would require minimum sentences of
two, five and 10 years for first, second and third
convictions of drug peddlers. There is even a pro
posed federal law with a death jenalty for peddlers
who sell to minors.
We hope Congress was listening when the teen
agers spilled out their stories of the lark that turned
out to be a roller-coaster on the road to horror.
High Cost Pension Plans
Pensions and other compensa'”tion paid to veter
ans of all American wars and members of the
armed forces retired in peacetime now total over
$27 billion, according to a new Veterans’ Adminis
tration calculation. Of this total, sl9 billion has been
paid to living veterans and $8 billion to their de
pendents and survivors, Pension payments now cost
$2 billion a year, and will increase.
Costliest war thus far, in terms of pensions, has
been World War I, for which over $8 billion have
been paid out. Payments to Civil War veterans have
now dwindled to almost nothing, but their benefi
ciaries are still drawing $8 million a year. Total
pension cost of Civil War to date has been over $§
billion, only slightly behind World War I costs to
date,
World War II pensions and compensation pay
ments have cost $6 billion to date and will, of
course, increase to exceed =all other past wars.
Spanish-American War has already cost $3 billion
in pensions, and over $1 million a year is being paid
out to survivors and dependents of the Indian wars.
Administration spokesmen state we will not be in
a position to defend ourselves against Russian at
tack until 1953. The implication . . . is that until
tha time we invite aggression.—Senator Richard M.
Nixon (R.-California),
Like scarecrows in a cornfield (Republicans are)
blowing whichever way the wind blows in an effort
to get partisan advantages.——Charles F. Brannan,
Secretary of Agriculture,
The belief that miracles of luck can be substi
tuted for honest effort and solemn work . .. must
not win in the contest with Christian conscience and
character.—Dr. Hugh I. Evans, Presbyterian min
ister, Dayton, Ohio.
