ATOMIC ENERGY CONTROL
Russian Attitude To “Baruch Plan”
(Rec. 8 p.m.) NEW YORK. Aug. 23. The Soviet Union told a United Nations committee to-day that it had no objection to merging the United Nations Atomic Energy Commission and the Conventional Arms Commission into one body, but it refused to sanction any mention of the "Baruch Pkan” for atomic energy control. The committee of 12 members was meeting to attempt a fresh start with the two commissions, which have been virtually inactive for the last two years.
The plan for merging the two commissions proposed that the basis for future work, on atomic energy control should be the original atomic control scheme proposed by Mr Bernard Baruch in 1946 and later endorsed by a majority of the United Nations members.
The Soviet delegate, Mr Semyon Tsarapkin, said to-day that if the merger plan would delete any reference to the Baruch proposal, he could support it. The United States member. Mr Frank Nash, rejected the Soviet proposal and the committee adjourned until next week.
