The Business \ ' -1 ~" No Retaliation Without Okay Churchill Asserts FBI Tells Police Watch For Small Atomic Weapons WASHINGTON (IP) The FBI has urged police offi cers throughout the nation to be on the alert for at tempts by enemy saboteurs to sneak midget atomic weapons into the country, it was learned today. The FBI itself declined to com ment on the letter. But informed sources said It was not prompted by any new fear that potential en emy agents were believed to be about to try to smuggle atomic bomte or other weapons into the country for sabotage purposes. ' Informed sources said any atomic device smuggled into this country would probably be small enough to be carried on the person. BE ALERT! ”... Be especially alert,” the warning said, "regarding any ar ticle that is extremely heavy for its size.’’ The alert said that any atomic device must contain uranium or plutonium, both of which weigh about one and a half times as much as lead. Both of the metals can be coand with plastic# os otfa* metals to disguise their appearance and can be machined into anv shape. Other necessary parts for any atomic device, the alert said, were either a gun barrel-type device or a high explosive. Informed sources said the “alert” sent out on Jan. 1. was in line with the FBl’s practice of period ically alerting police agencies to the dangers of enemy agent activ ities smuggling materials into the country. SOUNDED EVERYWHERE However, these sources said the alert was sounded In letters to po lice administrators in virtually all parts of the country and not Just to those in key ports whare smug gling attempts might be anticipa ted. They said the letter probably went out on the recommendation of the National Security Council which has overall supervision of the ’defense of the nation. It was also learned that the act ion followed up President Eisen hower's special message of last Dec. 15 urging all public and patri otic organizations to watch for atomic smuggling and to report all evidence to the FBI. The Atomic Energy Commission also revealed nothing about the FBI alert. A spokesman said “that’s not our job.” UP FOR CHAIRMANSHIP—Wood row steady in-line far chairman board was at;iouaced^at*week.^** NEW SECRETARY - Mrs. Sue Johnson has bam named the new Moratory of the Junior Chamber of Commerce, according to a bulletin from the group today.

S. Must Consult Britain On Use Os Bases LONDON (IP) Prime Minister Winston Churchill said today that the United States must consult with Britain before ordering “massive retaliation’’ against any aggressor from U. S. air bases in this coun try. Churchill told the House of Com mons that he has "smooth and friendly arrangements” with Pres ident Elsenhower for discussing such emergencies as aggression. The Prime Minister added that he is in “full accord” with U. S. Secretary of State John Foster Dulles' statement tost week, out lining the strategy of “instant” re taliation in case war starts. Socialists had challenged Churchill to affirm that such “in stant” action would not drag Britain into war without the government knowing in advance. FRONT LINE American air bases in Britain are l*oked upon as the “front line” of American strategic air power. “On the general question of con sultation with President Elsenha*'- er. and the United States govern ment, smooth and friendly arrange ments exist for dealing with these njiatters and with any others of ma jor importance.” Churchill said. “There has been an interchange of ideas between this government and the United States government, both direct and through channels of NATO. IKE AGREES "I have had intimate correspond ence and conversations on these and many other questions with President Eisenhower in the past and our relationship continues.” Churchill said the use of U. S. bases in Britain “in an emergency would be a matter for joint deci sion by the government and the United States government in the light of circumstances prevailing at the time."
