By WILLIE DESCH
Staff Writer
Confusion on the danger of an
atomic or hydrogen bomb attack
by the Russians is being spread
by the Eisenhower administra

senators.
The Democrats believe that it is
time for the President or th
National Security Council to make
some statement of the known
facts on atomic warfare and the
fate of the people.
A story in the New York Times
reported that the President
wanted to stop all the loose of
ficial talk about the Soviet
Union's possible hydrogen bomb.
All statements concerning such
matters must pass through the
National Security Council or the
President, it stated.
