U. S. to Indict Russia For Atom-Plan Holdup
WASHINGTON — The State Department is preparing to indict Russia before the court of world opinion for blocking an earnest U.S. attempt to break the ominous eight-year-old deadlock over international control of atomic energy.
On a cue from President Eisenhower, the department is expected to issue soon a detailed official report on six months of futile and frustrating negotiations with Soviet leaders on the "atoms-for-peace" plan that Mr. Eisenhower outlined to the United Nations General Assembly last Dec. 8.
The negotiations have been conducted at the highest level — usually between Secretary of State John Foster Dulles and Soviet For-eign Minister V.M. Molotov—and in great secrecy. About all that is known is that they failed utterly to bridge the deep gulf between East and West over how to halt the atomic arms race overshadowing civilization.
Mr. Eisenhower told his news conference Wednesday that Russia's attitude had closed the door to any possibility of early agreement. He invited reporters to go to Secretary Dulles for a first-hand account of the issues that blocked agreement.
His remark was interpreted at the State Department as a presidential suggestion to give the world the facts about the atomic talks. Machinery was set in motion immediately to comply. It was considered likely that a report might be made public within a very few days.

Polio Hits Tract South Of Stanton
SANTA ANA — An outbreak of polio in a 250-house tract of small homes south of Stanton was reported today.
Eight children from the tract at Chapman avenue and Highway 39 have become ill and one of them has died.
The death of Shellia Eberhardt, 7, last Friday, was described to the present outbreak. Her little brother, Dale, 2½ now has the dread polio.
Four more cases were reported today involving two babies, Barbara Rossen and James Sparkes, each 15 months old and Jean Missener, 13 and Willard Rhodes, 14.
The latter's brother, Howard Rhodes, 7, also was removed to Orange County General hospital observation, but his illness has not yet been definitely diagnosed.
Two other children living within the tract had previously fallen ill. One of the involvements dates back to May 20.
Dr. Edward Lee Russell, Orange County's Health Officer, said that he believed the spread of polio within the area was by personal contacts since all the children played together. He said he has found no sanitation problems.
The health department's nurses are contacting parents to advise them as to care of their children and what symptoms to observe in their children should begin.

New Plastic Engraving Process Now Being Used by Anaheim Bulletin
The majority of the pictures you see daily in the Anaheim Bulletin are now being made by an entirely new process — the Scan-A-Graver, an electronic machine producing direct engravings on plastic from the original photographs.
This machine is the result of years of research and planning by one of America's outstanding editors, Walter Howey who first developed the idea of making engravings by electronics in 1899 when city editor of the Fort Dodge Chronicle.
Final development of the Scan-A-Graver as used by the Bulletin and other Orange County News Service papers was made by the Fairchild Camera and Instrument Corp. of Syosset, Long Island, N.Y.
In Daily Use
Now in daily use at the Bulletin, the amazing new machine produces plastic engravings in a matter of minutes from late news photos made by Bulletin photographers. This allows a greater number of pictures daily in addition to lengthening deadlines for artwork.
Operation of the Scan-A-Graver is a simple process of fitting the photograph to be engraved around a metal cylinder. A piece of plastic material is also fastened around a cylinder at the opposite end of the machine. Two simple adjustments are made by the operator which controls contrast in the engraving and the work begins.
Scans Print
A "seeing - eye" mechanizm, containing a photo-electric cell scans the print at one end of the machine while an electric needle engraves it.

Income of Nation Down in April
WASHINGTON (UP) — The nation's total income declined in April for the sixth month in a row, the Commerce Department reported today.
Wages, salaries and other forms of personal income were at an annual rate of 282 billion dollars. This was one billion dollars less than the rate of earnings in March and five billion dollars lower than the peak rate of last October.
The decline from March to April hit hardest among farm hands and workers at factories which produce metals, machinery and transportation equipment. The earning rate for other groups was "steady" in April. The report said.
Though total employment increased in April, farm employment did not rise as much as usual and employment at durable goods factories declined. These two employment trends contributed to the drop in personal income, which is an "adjusted" figure—the actual dollar payroll "adjusted" for the normal month-to-month ups and downs.
Today's report noted farm income is generally irregular from month to month anyhow. April's

Today's report noted farm income is generally irregular from month to month, anyhow. April's decline, it said, stemmed from a smaller volume of crops put on the market or placed under government price support loans during the month.
Total wages and salaries in private industry during April came to a rate of 160 billion dollars per year, which was a half-billion lower than the March rate.
Farm income in April was at an annual rate of $15,900,000,000 compared to $16,700,000,00 in March.
Government payrolls stood at the same annual rate in both months—$33,300,000,000. Income from interest and dividends was also unchanged, at an annual rate of $23...100,000,000.

Senate Investigators Hear First Of Monitored Army-McCarthy Calls
WASHINGTON — After five weeks of haggling, Senate investigators today heard the first of the monitored telephone calls taken down in Army Secretary Robert T. Stevens' office during early stages of the Army-McCarthy dispute.
The transcripts of conversations read today covered three calls between Stevens and Sen. Everett M. Dirksen (R-IL), a member of the Senate Investigating Subcommittee which is now holding hearings on the feud.
Because of the long delay in getting blanket clearance for all monitored calls bearing on the dispute, Dirksen read his own, with the consent of counsel Joseph N. Welch, representing stevens.
McCarthy Got Mad
The transcripts ready by Dirksen quoted the secretary as saying that Sen. Joseph R. McCarthy (R-Wis) "got very mad" when Stevens reported to other members of McCarthy's subcommittee about a hearing to which Stevens had objected.
Another quoted Stevens as saying he was "crucified" by the interpretation placed on a peace-making "memorandum of understanding" which followed his Feb. 24 meeting with McCarthy and other Republican members of the subcommittee.
Dirksen read the transcripts of his calls while Roy M. Cohn, McCarthy alide and regular chief counsel of the subcommittee, was in the witness chair for the fifth straight day.
All or None
More haggling about making the monitored calls public had preceded Dirksen's action. Cohn had repeated that the McCarthy side wanted all or none to go in the
Pogo Stick” Plane in Test Flight
By GLENN STACKHOUSE
Med Press Staff Correspondent
OFFETT FIELD, Calif. (UP)—Navy’s radically new XFY-1 tactical takeoff fighter plane made successful test flight of some 60 straight up yesterday.
lying inside the giant dirigible gag at the Navy base here 50 miles south of San Francisco, it flew on a leash in what consolidated-Vultee aircraft off-referred to as a “tethered flight test.”
At the controls of the experimental plane, nicknamed the “Post-Stick” by the Navy, was veteran aviator test pilot J. F. (Skeets) Coggan, who celebrated his 38th birthday with the brief flight.
Some 200 press, television and radio representatives looked on from a catwalk 50 feet up the side of the hangar as Coleman gunned tremendous 7100 horsepower prop engine into an ear splitter roar and slowly lifted it right up towards the roof of the hangar 184 feet above.
The plane rose slowly with gathering speed, much like the takeoff of a propeller driven rocket. At approximately 60 feet above the floor the test pilot brought the plaae to a halt and hung suspended with the six huge counter rotating propellor blades stirring up a small cyclone.
Coleman flew with the canopy open, lying almost flat on his back and looking backward over his shoulder at the hangar floor as he maneuvered the controls with his hands and feet in adjusting the power of the engine to the flight.
Then gently, like a man setting down a crate of eggs, he brought the plane to the floor at rest position, on its tall with its nose pointed skyward.
In a second flight Coleman took the craft aloft on its lesh once more and made it dance from side to side in the air, showing that if the plane was untethered he could have swung over on legal flight and left the hangar for the air spaces outside.
It was the first public demonstration of the plane which has been in construction at the Consolidated Vultee plant in San Diego for about four years.
B. F. Coggan, San Diego division manager for Convair, said the first actual free flight test should take place within the next month or two.
The plane, which has swept back wings and two huge tail fins like a space ship, is designed to take off and land like a helicopter, yet fly like a fighter.
Its economy in landing space could eventually make every ship in a Navy convoy its own carrier with fighter protection against enemy air attack. It will take off vertically from the deck of a cargo ship and fly at speeds in excess of 500 mph, making it the fastest prop driven fighter aircraft in the world, Coggan said.
