World Authority for Atomic Power Urged
A group of Oak Ridge civilian scientists urge immediate control of the atomic weapon by a world authority and say 96 percent of the main laboratory staff support a world controlled program. Senate foreign relations committee calls for a joint Senate House panel to study atomic energy control with a 25 thousand dollar expense limit. President Truman signals openness to sharing the secret with trusted nations and explores strict controls with possible World Security Council involvement. Other notes mention offers of wartime energy sharing proposals and U S Britain Canada exchanges.
