Mystery Disk Baffles Officials
Central City, Colo—(U.P.)-Central City AFC officials admitted today they were unable to identify a small but highly radio-active metal disk found in a gulch south of the mining community.
The mysterious metal disk, measuring two inches in diameter and about a quarter-inch thick, also had baffled the FBI, U.S. Geological service, state health officials, and veteran mining men as to its origin or use.
Morris Steen, 30, millworker for Cherokee Uranium, Inc., found the disk in a lake gulch a mile south of here. He said he spotted what he thought was a chunk of lead and discovered the disk inside. Officials said the lead apparently was a homemade shield for the object.
The disk has a small glass window on one side. A white, powdery substance which glows in the dark is visible inside the window.
On the back is an inscription reading; "UNDARK" at the top. At the b o t t o m it reads; "2M-TCR58 USRC," then "POISON INSIDE."
Adenauer to Make Plan To Break Blockade
Berlin—(U.P.)—Chancellor Konrad Adenauer will fly to Berlin to plan personally the free world's strategy to crack the Communists' "Little Blockade," the West German government announced today.
West Berlin Mayor Otto Suhr appealed directly to Adenauer to intervene as the Communists stepped up their war of nerves against the free part of the city.
U. S. High Commissioner James B. Conant arrived in Berlin today by train from the West German capital in Bonn for a three-day visit. He planned to discuss the threatening Berlin situation with U.S. officials although his visit was planned before the blockade began.
Government officials said Mr. Adenaer probably would visit Berlin from April 26 to 28 with some cabinet members to discuss with members of the city government ways of lifting the red blockade. He must be back in Bonn by April 29 for a meeting with French Foreign Minister Antoine Pinay.
Mr. Suhr already had conferred with Mr. Conant before calling on Mr. Adenauer today.
The prominence given the demands, combined with a Communist press and radio campaign against West Berlin, was seen here as a sign the Reds were planning new steps to interfire with traffic between free sections of the city and the West.
The repeated Communist statements made it evident the Communists were at least planning new steps against West Berlin, perhaps similar to the prohibitive tolls trucks must pay to roll along the highways connecting Berlin with the outside world.
Mr. Suhr already had spent two days conferring with Bonn government and Western Allied officials before meeting with Chancellor Adenauer.
Mr. Suhr has said that only strong action by the West can halt the little blockade and prevent further repressive measures against the free part of the city.
