An accelerated expansion of facilities and operations at, two key plants, Oak Ridge, and wHl cost in excess of $300,000,000. it has been learned from authoritative sources. Two moves in the Senate late yesterday paved the way for the program. One was the disclosure by Chair- McMahon (D-Conn.) of the Senate-House atomic committee that President Truman had authorized atomic energy commission (A.E.C.) to use some of its budg- ALCOHOLISM CONTROLLED LATEST KNOWN METHODS Patient may continue ALLISON treatment at home after a brief stay in Sanitarium.

The reserves to be used amount to approximately, $30,000,000, or with the A.E.C. officiis. The senator predicted the acceleration would "probably result in speeding up" 9 the A.E.C: construction program about 10 per cent of the overall 1 foy "three or four months." program which is to be financed by a deficiency appropriations bill in the next session'of Congress. The second move was Senate approval of a measure by Senator McMahon to lift some of the spending curbs imposed on the A.E.C.

earlier in the session. This still is subject to House approval. McMahon refused to answer when asked by newsmen whether the speed-up action is the result of recent disclosures that Soviet Russia has had an atomic explosion. At the United Nations yesterday, Andrei Vishinsky, Soviet foreign minister, restated to a news conference the Soviet claim that Russia had the bomb since 1947. while saying that a "major expansion effort" is being undertaken, emphasized that it is "an acceleration of planned production that has been in the planning stage since McMahon last spring." made the announcement of the President's authoriza- NASAL CONGESTION drops of Penetro Nose Drops in eaclx nostril open up cold- clogged nose fast.

Neither was any breakdown of the allocations to the two plants made available. Hanford is the center of the piu- tonium operations, while Oak Ridge turns our key materials for atomic bombs. The Senate acted to modify the curbs on A.E.C.

spending after an appeal from McMahon which brought support from two key Republicans on the joint Senators Hickenlooper (Iowa) and Miilikin Hiekenlooper, an arch critic of A.E.C. Chairman David E. Lilienthal and his policies, called the measure offered by McMahon of importance to the atomic program." Miilikin said it was "very important to national security." The curbs on commission spending were imposed by a Senate appropriations subcommittee following disclosures that the cost of some of the A.E.C.'s projects were far exceeding original estimates. The restrictions provided generally for approval by the budget bureau and Congress of commission projects under certain conditions. McMahon said the restrictions would have the effect of slowing clown vital commission projects.

His bill, which the Senate ap- proved by voice vote, provides that the curbs should not apply with respect to technical and production facilities (1) if the A.E.C. certifies to the budget director that immediate construction or immediate continuation of construction is necessary to national defense and (2) if the budget director agrees that such certification is justified.
