The Atomic Energy Commission, in the first transaction of its kind, announced the sale of 10 tons of heavy water to India for use in a reactor devoted to nuclear re- search. Among other things such reactors are useful in research to improve agriculture, medicine and industry. The AEC expressed hope the sale "is only a first important step in a broader collaboration in this qfield." Expanding Research . The announcement was made just a few hours ahead of a con- gressional report saying India needed heavy water for its rapidly expanding research work in atomic energy and commenting on the "hollowness" of Russian offers to help other nations. Heavy water, or deuterium ex- ide, is used as a moderator to slow down neutrons and control nuclear chain reactions. Ten tons is suffi- cient for an experimental reactor. President Dwight D. Eisenhow- er has proposed an international pool of atomic materials and know-how under the United Na- tions to speed the global use of atomic energy for power and oth- er peacetime uses, but the pool has not been set up. Dulles Comments Secretary of State John Foster Dulles has noted that although Russia voted in favor of a United Nations atomic clearing house, it acted with reservations and "with- out any material support for the agency at this time." Hence the United States is moving to help friendly nations individually. In a speech at Philadelphia Sat- urday, Director Theodore C. Strei- bert of the United States Infor- mation Agency said public opin- ion polls in Europe indicate that Eisenhower's atoms-for-peace plan has "completely reversed" pessi- mism that nuclear power would benefit mankind. Two Survivors of Air Force Crash Spotted THE PAS, Man.,(M-Two sur- vivors of a United States Air Force B47 Stratojet which crash- ed in the snowy wilderness of northern Saskatchewan early yes- terday have been spotted from the air, the Royal Canadian Air Force announced, yesterday. A parachute-rescue team with survival supplies has been drop- ped to help them. An RCAF spokesman said the men ivere located in the vicinity of the plane's wreckage, 435 miles northwest of Winnipeg, and more than 15 planes are pressing the search for the two other crewmen aboard the huge craft. The sighting of the two survi- vors earlier was reported by the 44th Air Rescue Squadron at Low- ry Air Force Base in Denver. In Winnipeg the RCAF Search and Rescue Center moved into high gear to plan evacuation of the suriviors from the rugged, lake-dotted swamp area. There was no immediate indication of the men's physical condition. . i t LM w 1 . l i t I v Jm- W.ALJ.. J- ! IM.O+' q~.i 'M...,/ -M-ML WW m ,i.

Moscow radio announced that Foreign Minister V. M. Molotov had proposed that Britain and In- dia join in trying to persuade tle United States to agree to a 10- nation meeting either in Shanghai or New Delhi later this month. Unproductive In Washington, informed offi- cials said Britain and the United States have decided such a confer- ence without Nationalist China would be unproductive and have rejected the proposal. Officials added :hey understood this was the view taken by most, if not all, of the British Common- wealth prime ministers at their London meeting, where the Soviet move was thoroughly discussed. The Moscow broadcast said Mol- otov made the proposal in a com- munication to British Foreign Sec- retary Anthony Eden Feb. 4 and that negotiations "are continuing." Nehru Gats Note Molotov also communicated his idea to Prime Minister Nehru of India. An Indian spokesman here said yesterday "It has been reported .for the last few days that such a proposal had been made by Russia, for a conference outside the Unit- ed Nations, and presumably it has been discussed by Mr. Nehru dur- ing his visit. That is as far as we can go at the moment." Molotov reviewed the breakdown of efforts in the United Nations to get cease-fire talks started and said that for this reason "coun- tries specially interested" should "consider this question at an ap- propriate conference." He suggested these countries could be the United States, Red China, Britain, Russia, France, In- dia, Burma, Indonesia, Pakistan and Ceylon. U.S. Unwillingness Molotov sought to blame the dangerous Formosa situation on the unwillingness of the United States and Britain "to take into consideration" the demands of the Chinese Communists. The 'hinese Reds refused to en- ter United Nations cease-fire talks unless they were given the Chinese Nationalist seats in the United Na- tions and unless the United States was placed in the role of a de- fendant. The United Nations Security Council will meet tomorrow to take up again the cease-fire question. A United States delegation spokes- man said, after hearing Molotov's proposal, "we still consider the hostilities question a United Na- tions matter to be handled by the United Nations Security Council." Hatcher Gives / Talk at MSC Convocation University president Harlan H. Hatcher conveyed greetings to MSC at its Founder's Day convo- cation yesterday. Speaking as the representative of the public institutions of higher learning in Michigan, President Hatcher recreated the "period of excitement and of eager expecta- tion" which marked the nation's history 100 years ego. In a graphic manner, President Hatcher outlined the development and important role of both the pri- .se11UUorA Ls By PETE ECKSTEIN Special to The Daily DETROIT-"I tiink if we don't put a ceiling on campaign expendi- tures, we're going to see an end to Democracy in America," Sen. Richard L. Neuberger, (D-Ore.) said here yesterday. He described it as "problem number one" before the Roose- velt Day dinner of the Detroit chapter of the Americans for Democratic Action. Calling for "the strictest ceil- ing on enormous campaign funds," he said, -"I think the sum ought to be so low that the nandidate would have to go out and meet the peo- ple." Power Partnership Ser. Neuberger called the "pow- er partnership" program of the Eisenhower administration "one of the most monstrous frauds ever perpetrated on the American peo- ple." The government pays one half the price of power projects, he continued. Power companies get revenues and "the government gets the fish ladders. The fish go through for nothing." Criticizing the administration as .government by gimmick," he said, of its school program, "when you start boiling it down, there's noth- ing in the bottom of the kettle." Demoralization Herbert Block, syndicated car- toonist, criticized what he called "the government's insecurity sys- tem" for its "demoralization of the foreign service" and its attempt to "plow under Wolfe Ladejinsky." Praising several libcral Republi- cans, "Herblock" said, "I think Eisenhower Republicans are all right. I only wis" I could be sure that Eisenhower was one of them." Gov. Lee, among other things, assailed -the United Nations and the foreign- aid program, calling the latter unconstitutional. Other GOP meetings through- out the country produced predic- tions that Fresident Eisenhower would run again if called upon in 1956. The President himself, while va- cationing near Thomasville, Ga., declared in a Lincoln Birthday an- niversary message that "the great- ness of the Republican party is, and will be, measured by the in- tensity of its devotion" to Lincoln's faith in America. Mitchell Comments Secretary of L a b o r James Mitchell and Atty. Gen. Herbert Brownell led the Administration speaking brigade.

Oh VWell WASHINGTON (-) - The gooney birds of Midway Atoll are stubborn but far from looney, a team of baffled biolo- gists reported yesterday after waging a largely losing war against them. They set off flares, fired rifles, mortars and bazookas, assailed the birds' eardrums with high frequency waves, and wafted smoke from a burning truck tire in the direction with no success. The scientists had responded to a call for help from the Military Air Transport Service, which said the big albatrosses, with a wing spread of seven feet, were bumping into planes over the Pacific island. -+ 1 1 { PROF. WIT COMMENTS: Mendes-France May Regain Position, State Leads Early However, for a long time it ap- peared that Michigan State had finally found a way of defeating the Wolverines. The Spartans held the lead for nearly two periods. The first score proved to be the most unusual goal of the evening. Campanini sent the puck all the way from the Spartan half of the ice on a straight line toward Michigan goalie Lorne Howes, who, in attempting to clear the puck to a teammate, allowed it to skid slowly into the net. The time was 3:05. Fourteen minutes and six pen- alties later, after trying several timessto surprise Howes again with long shots, Michigan State took a two-goal lead on Olson's drive from close up on a pass from Ward.
