Open split in Atomic Energy Committee sparks clash
Washington Sept. 27 AP An open split between Chairman Brien McMahon and ranking minority member Bourke Hickenlooper drives the Joint Congressional Atomic Energy Committee toward crucial decisions on U S atomic policy. McMahon accuses Hickenlooper of groundless charges that loose AEC security aided Russia, while Hickenlooper says laxity sped Russia’s bomb program. The panel plans early hearings on accelerating U S bomb production and sharing know-how with Britain and Canada amid Russia’s earlier-than-expected atomic breakthrough.
