U. S. Scientists Urge Atom Treaty to Curb Output Indefinitely •y tht Atteciattd tr«i . NEW YORK. April 5.—A group of American scientists yesterday called for an atomic energy control treaty which would indefinitely prohibit the manufacture of atomic products “in dangerous quantities.” The scientists said they offered their proposals as a means of break ing the deadlock between the United States and Russia on international control of atomic energy. The plea came trout the Atlantic region group of the Association of Scientists for Atomic Education. The group is aided by grants from the Emergency Committee of Atomic Scientists, of which Prof. Albert Einstein is chairman. Proposal Sent to Cadogan. Hie association directed its pro posal to Sir Alexander Cadogan of England, chairman of the United Nations Atomic Energy Commission, and Frederick H. Osborn, American representative on the commission. The association’s letter said So viet proposals for control of atomic energy do not furnish a proper basis for negotiation of a« treaty of control, but “that negotiations on the fundamentals of international control of atomic energy should be continued.” It added: "We urge favorable consideration bv the United Nations Atomic Energy Commission of the proposal that a treaty of control should in .elude prohibition, for an indefinite period, of any manufacture of fis sionable materials in dangerous quantities.” Objective Called Practical. Cuthbert Daniel was chairman of a working committee named by the association to draw up its report. He formerly was engaged in atomic work at the plant in Oak Ridge, Tenn. Mr. Daniel said the scientists fa vored a halt of atomic production “for at least a 10-year period.” He added that the proposal “is a prac tical and attainable objective even In the present atmosphere of mu tual distrust between the United States and Russia.” Library of Congress to Keep Exhibit Halls Open later The Library of Congress has an nounced It will keep exhibit halls of the main building open until 10 pm. on Saturdays to give tourists more of an opportunity to see such his toric documents as the Declaration of Independence and the Constitu tion.
