By DO: GLAS LARSEN and DOYLE KLINE NEA Correspondents ALBUQUERQUE, N.M.-(NEA)It's safe to assume that Moscow has gathered a mass of detail about how America's nuclear weapons are stored, moved around the U.S. and transported to bases overseas. That information is available to any casual visitor to the Santa PeAlbuquerque area. Two events which took place within a 12-hour period recently show how loose tongues blab secrets: The "Fasten Your Seat Belt" sign flashed in the TWA Constellation on its approach to Albuquerque's municipal airport.

The plane was landing on the same runways used by Kirtland Air Force Base planes and atomic bombers headed for all parts of the world. The Connie made a swing around the field and dropped its wheels over the east end of the runway, 300 feet over Sandia Base. A middle-aged woman passenger nudged the woman next to her and said in a voice audible to other passengers: "Take a look at the side of that moantain. See the big holes? They're tunnels, And those bunkers with the dirt piled over them? Fences around both places. They store atom bombs there." The other woman asked in astonishment: "Are you sure? I thought that was secret!" Somewhat impatiently the first woman replied: course.

My husband works there. Besides everybody in Albuquerque knows it. My husband says all you have to do is put two and two together." She recounted swiftly how, her husband had surmised from remarks of men off duty that airconditioning equipment has been installed in the tunnels "to incubate the great big -that the tunnels had been pushed with desperate speed into solid granite. The woman now had the rapt attention of all those on the plane who could hear. Encouraged, she added: we land, notice the funnylooking hangars and the big planes parked all around.

They take the bombs from Sandis and load them on the bpmbers right over there. You can take some interesting pictures of the whole place from the terminal." One of these reporters who overheard this fascinating recital WAS invited that evening to a small neighborhood get-together in the home of a friend in an Albuquerque suburb. One of the guests said: -Pete and I were stopped on the way home from Santa Pe last night by another of those convoys ing atom bombs. Probably in connection with the tests in Las Vegas." The speaker described the trucks, their markings and their route. Another guest added: "Yes, and you know they're not using that old lot near Menaul School for overnight parking any more.

Brownell Upholds Ike's Authority in Foreign Affairs Says Restrictio nof President's Treaty-Making Powers Would Be Perllaus. WASHINGTON, April 7 (AP)-Attorney General Brownell told the Senate judiciary committee today it would be "against the best interests of the country" to restrict treaty-making powers at 8 time when the world is "fraught with peril." Carrying on the administration's fight to keep President Eisenhower's present authority in the field of foreign affairs, the attorney general testified: "On every hand we have need for friends and Allies the old who have dealt securely with us in the past, the new who can rely upon the example of the past.

"I think it is against the best interests of the country to reduce the tried and proven means, or to dissipate our responsibility and authority, for meeting the worldwide issues which affect the welfare of the United States." Brownell argued there were inherent dangers in making such 8 constitutional change. He said the amendment would be in conflict with the United States' own proposal (the Baruch plan) for control of atomic energy under 8 system of international inspection. "The point need not be belabored by reciting other like problems that must one day be the subject of international solution," Brownell asserted. City Enlarging Clay Street Sewer Basements Flooded Because Other Line Too Small. With one eye on the threatening sky and the other on the work before them, city workmen today are enlarging a section of sewer line on Clay street.

In all, there will be approximately 250 feet of 15-inch tile pipe put in place of the 8-inch ones there now, according to Frank Bench, city street commissioner. The enlarging job runs west on Clay street from, Dickinson. Residents of the vicinity say their basements are flooded nearly every time it rains because the eight inch pipe is too small to carry the water away swiftly enough. The 15-inch line being put in its place will correct this situation. The job should be completed if the weather permits, Bench said.

Work began yesterday afternoon. The bricks are being removed from the street over the route of the sewer and a drag line is being used to dig down to the pipe about three feet below.

Russia Asks End to Discussion of Germ War Charges In U. Soviet Delegate Urges U. S. to Drop Demand for Full Investigation. UNITED NATIONS, N.

April 7. (P)-Russia appealed to the U. S. today to drop its demand for an Impartial investigation of Communist charges that American troops waged germ warfare in Korea. Soviet Delegate Valerian Zorin told the U.

60-national political committee there was "no need for the committee to consider the details" of the charges now. He urged, instead, that the U. S. ratify the Geneva convention against bacterjological warfare and indicated that such action would close the incident so far as Russia is concerned. Zorin began his speech by saying the Soviet government was "fully alive to the circumstances" during which the debate on an American demand for the investigation of the charges was taking place.

This was considered by U. N. observers to be 8 reference to truce negotiations progressing at Panmunjom. He expressed "surprise tinged with regret" that the U. S.

had reacted 50 vigorously against the charges, briefly reviewed Red "evidence" in one of the shortest speeches the Soviet Union has ever made on a major international issue and then called for an end to committee discussion of the subject. Zorin added, however, that negative answer or an evasive one" from the U. 8. "will not satisfy us." The U. S.

has said previously that it has no intention of ratifying the convention because it is not enforcible. Zorin indicated the Soviet Union WAS not in any way withdrawing the charges, but would not press them if the U. S. would agree to 'Soviet terms. Zorin indicated the Soviet world believes its charges -which have been vigorously denied by the U.

S. and other countries with troops in Korea -have had a profound effect. Red Cross Fund Drive Total to $5,185.10 Less Than $1,000 Is Needed to Reach Goal.

MUNSAN, Korea, April 7.

(P) United Nations and Communist liaison officers have agreed in principle on an exchange of sick and wounded captured personnel Agreement reached at today's session at Panmunjom could very well serve as a pattern for completing the long-sought armistice in Korea. The United Nations accepted 3 Communist proposal to exchange all sick and wounded, with one exception who prefer not to be returned. North Korean Gen. Lee Sang Cho said he would go along with this without reservation--prisoners not being sent home could be sent to a neutral country. On March 31, Premier Chou En-lai of Communist China called for an exchange of all prisoners of war and suggested the same provision, namely, those who refused repatriation could be sent to a neutral country.

Thus, in making the same exception in the exchange of sick and wounded, the United Nations was setting a precedent which could very well halt the fighting in Korea. The Communists today accepted four out of nine points in the Allied plan on the arrangement for exchange of wounded and agreed to say in a day or two how many sick and wounded they would be ready (Continued on Page A Busy Schedule for Ludlow Methodists Services Held Sunday; Bishop There Monday.
