Congressmen Resent Soviet Attitude
Deadlock Feared,
With Global Race
In Atom Weapons
Washington, June 2Γ>. — (AP)
The threat of United Nations
deacilock over atomic energy lmh- ;
I nil, followed by a global atomic
arms lace, spurred Congress, today
as the result of Russia's blunt "du
it our way" approach to the pro
blem.
Leading law-makers declared em- '
phatieallv that thi country is not
going to surrender its A-bomb se- ,
cret until tested international con- !
trois are set up. something which ι
the Soviet plan iU«·.- not appear to j
guarantee.
A charge by the communist news
paper Pravda that the American !
plan for international control of the |
weapon "reflects evident striving ;
for world rule,' provoked sharp :
counter criticism Iron, members of !
the Senate special aio.n;c commit- j
tee.
Calling the rhaige "ridiculous."
Senator Russell. (D-Ga), a com- j
mittee member, told a reporter he .
thinks "the Rus-ams should stop !
judging all other nati< ns' motives [
by their own sel;';sii ai'itudes."
"Nobody in the world lias ever
offered to give away so much for so
iittl··." the Georgia senator declar
ed. "The Barucli plan is a generous j
proposal, in which we otter to give
nwya a development bought with ;
our genius and our money. All we :
ask in return is protection for the;
world and ourselves against its use
for destructive purposes.
"I am bitterly opposed to reveal
ing one iota of information until we ι
have some irrevocable plan of in
spection and I think the majority
of Congress is in the same frame of
mind. There can be no veto in the
operation of such international con
trol."

However. CPA Admin'str; tor .John,

EXPLANATIONS — The usual |
Monday morning post mortem- were
occupying attention of mo.-t Cap
itol Squari' folk Few persons were
i found who would admit any sur- 1
, prise, though some confess the vote
' was larger in both the fifth and
,-ixth districts than they expected,
and winning majorities also were
more than had been anticipated.
Most observers saw in Saturday's
voting additional support for pre- :
\ iously expressed theories that or
j ganized labor and GI votes as such
I were not so important as some havt
>elieved.
LABOR—The labor vote had been

drawn with respect to GI voting

nor Rives paranmunted war records,
both emphasized the fact they had
served with distinction in both
world wars. Some appeal to voters
was made on that basis. Results of
the votinu showed this a'ipeal did
not register with much effect. Ua
