U.S. Conducting Atomic Program
Washington — (U.P.) - The United States was pressing a new campaign today to convince the world that this country is interested in developing atomic power for peace as well as possible war.
In broadcasts behind the Iron Curtain and throughout the free world, the Voice of America is calling attention of the decision of the Atomic Energy Commission to build history's first full-scale atomic plant for industrial power.
At the same time, high-ranking State Department officials are emphasizing America's willingness to undertake "honest" negotiations with Russia on atomic disarmament and other measures to ease East-West tensions.
The campaign is designed, officials said, to take the thunder out of Moscow's charge that the United States is pressing atomic and hydrogen bomb war plans while spurning disarmament offers.
Authorities said the announcement of the atomic power project last week caught Moscow propagandists flat-footed. At almost the same hour, Moscow radio was airing new allegations that American rejection of Soviet plans for atomic controls "compels the Soviet government to have at its disposal both atomic and hydrogen weapons."
The Voice of America, the government's international press service, and other American information outlets overseas are concentrating on the "peace theme" of atomic energy as underlined by the AEC announcement.
"We want the world to know that this country is not solely interested in production of atomic and hydrogen bombs," one government official said. "Neither are. we, forgetting that we need new weapons while Russia presses its production."
Freshman English Classes To Get Library Instruction
By GENE SHANK
Checking out a book at Watson library may sound easy to those who make use of the library. But to the bewildered freshman, finding a book may be quite a task.
For that reason, freshman English classes will begin a series of tours through the library Nov. 2-11.
The library staff explained that "the tours are conducted to help freshmen acquire a better understanding of their library, and through increased knowledge of its organization and functions, make it more valuable to them."
English instructors will direct their classes through the undergraduate library, the periodical, reference and education rooms, and the circulation department. The students will also be instructed on the use of the card catalogue.
As the tour progresses, a library staff member will be on hand to acquaint the freshmen with the various functions of each department.

Group Cash Raiser Calls Wrong Contact
Buffalo, N.Y. "This is a committee raising funds for the election of Seven Pankow (Democratic candidate) for mayor," said a feminine voice on the telephone. "Have you made up your mind yet the amount you'd like to contribute?"
"I'll tell you what I'll do," replied attorney Harry Lipsitz. "If you can getMr. Pankow—a fine man—to vote for my son, Richard, for mayor (Liberal party candidate) then I'll contribute."
Jap Sea Power Needs Stressed
Yokohama —(UP) —Vice Admiral Robert P. Briscoe told the Japanese today he hoped Japan would develop naval strength "adequate for her needs" in the face of growing China naval power.
Adm. Briscoe, commander of U.S. Naval forces in the Far East, said that the expansion of Soviet Russia in the past eleven years at the rate of "forty four square miles per hour" so far has been confined to the land masses of Asia and Europe.
"But the Communists would be fools, indeed, if they have not considered sea power in relation to their ambitions," he said.
Kansan classifieds bring results.
Briscoe said the yardstick of nava strength was that "you must control so much of the sea as is necessary to protect your homeland, your loved ones and your business."
He said he hoped that with the small ships of the new coastal defense as a nucleus, Japan "eventually will be able to develop a navy adequate for her needs."

Britain to Back Charge of Flier Torture by Reds
Most of the other 15 nations that fought alongside the United States in Korea were believed ready to support this country in the debate on germ warfare charges brought by Russia.
United Nations, N. Y. — (J.U.P)— Britain today was expected to endorse American charges that Russia organized a reign of torture to extract phony germ war confessions from American flyers.
Selwyn Lloyd, British minister of state, was prepared to voice his country's indictment of the Russian confession technique at a meeting of the United Nations' main political committee.
Russia has not asked to speak on the subject and Soviet delegate Andrei V. Yishinsky indicated to newsmen he had no intention of refuting the charges against his country in the current debate session.
Nationalist China and Cuban representatives were scheduled to follow Britain to the floor and were expected to substantiate further the American charges. Similar action was possible by Australia and New Zealand. France was slated to re- new the American charges tomorrow.
Soviet delegate Jacob A. Malik called the American charge that Russia directed Red tortures a "lie and when they were made on Monday.
Dr. Charles Mayo of the medical family that founded the world renowned Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minn., made the original American charge against Russia. He said American fliers were reduced to the level of grovelling animals by Communist tortures. He produced a thick sheaf of affidavits from American fliers to support his charges.
Prior to June, 1950, when the war began, Korea ranked 12th among countries of the world in population, with some 30 million inhabitants.
