Nehru Calls on Indians to
Remain Calm in Crisis
MEERUT, India, 0P) — Prime
Minister Nehru said last week the
situation with Communist China
over India’s northern borders is
causing grave anxiety.
He called on his people to re
main calm and not be swept away
by emotion.
“The situation has caused and
is continuing to cause grave
anxiety,” Nehru said. “But I do
not say there will be war with
China on this issue.”
He was answering questions
put by reporters while touring
this city.
In New Delhi, 40 miles away, a
British-owned newspaper, The
Statesman, suggested Nehru’s gov
ernment may be forced by public
pressure to sever diplomatic re
lations with Red China as a re
sult of the alleged ambush of In
dian policemen in a disputed bor
der area Wednesday.

jU. S. Would Prove
Soviets Downed
B29 Over Japan
WASHINGTON, UPt — The
United States says it can prove
— anytime — that Soviet lighter
planes violated Japanese air space
five years ago to shoot down an
American bomber.
The State Department Friday
again blamed the Soviets for the
incident. The statement was in
comment on the Soviet govern
ment’s refusal to let the Interna
tional Court at The Hague to ad
judicate the issue.
The court dropped the American
suit against the Soviet Union on
October 10. It had to, because the
Soviets insisted the court had no
business looking into such a mat
ter. A.greement by both parties is
necessary for court consideration
of an .issue.
The American bomber was shot
down over Hokkaido Island No
vember 7, 1754. It fell in flames
! as the crew bailed out. One Amer
1 ican airman was killed.
The State Department has re
peatedly sought damages of $756,
604 from the Soviets. The Soviets
have stuck to their story that the
B29 violated Soviet air space and
fired first.
The State Department said
“The United States B29 never shot
at the Soviet plane. It did not
cross the Soviet border but was
shot down over Japanese terri
tory by Soviet planes which in
truded into Japanese airspace to
do this.
“The U. S. government was,
and is, prepared to prove by evi
dence the truth of these state
ments.”

Marshall Interview
Reveals U.S. Played
All Its Aces in A5
WASHINGTON, UPt — America
had only two atomic bombs when
the decision was made to drop
them on Japan in World War II,
according to a posthumously pub
lished interview with General
George C. Marshall.
The magazine U. S. News &
World Report, in a copyrighted
article today, said Marshall
granted the interview to one of
its editors, John P. Sutherland, in
1954 and 1955 with the under
standing it would not be pub
lished until after his death.
The soldier-diplomat died Oc
tober 16.
Marshall said in the interview
that America’s military leaders
had no idea of the destructive
power of the A-bomb until one
was exploded in New Mexico on
July 16, 1945. Even after that,
he said, there was no clear-cut
plan on how to use the new
weapon.
“When we got the bombs we
had to use them in the best pos
sible way to save American lives,”
he said. “I heard all kinds of
discussions on how we should use
the first one. Some wanted to
drop it on the Sea of Japan. But
we didn’t know how it would
work in water. It might be a dud,
or get out of control. We just
didn’t know.
“Others wanted to drop it in a
rice paddy to save the lives of
the Japanese. But we only had
two, and the situation demanded
shock action. After using the two
bombs against Japan, there would
be nothing in reserve.”
Until the awesome power of
the bomb became known, it had
been planned to use nine of them
in an invasion of Japan, Marshall
said. The invasion was set for
September 23, 1945. Japan sur
rendered on August 14, eight days
after the first A-bomb was
dropped on Hiroshima.
Inflation Curb Weaknesses
Blamed on Interest Ceiling
WASHINGTON, OP) — The fed
eral battle against inflation has
been weakened by the refusal of
Congress to lift the interest ceil
ing on long-term government
bonds, a Nixon committee indi
cates.
In its third report, the Cabinet
Committee on Price Stability for
Economic Growth said that mone
tary policy now has to bear too
great a burden in the fight on in
flation. Vice President Richard M.
Nixon heads the committee.
The economy needs a proper
balance among monetary policy,
budget policy and debt manage
ment, the report said. When too
much falls on one element, it
added, the whole economic struc
ture weakens.
