Three Killed In Explosion On U.S. Submarine Chaser

MONTAUK, N.Y. (AP)-An ex- plnsioll killed three men aboard a I 5. Navy Submarine chaser off this tip of Long Island Wednes- day night. Three others were sev- erely injured.

The U.S. coast guard said the injured men were taken aboard the liner Queen Mary. asslng nunrby. outward bound from New lurk to England.

The coast guard said details of

tthe explosion's cause and effect lwere not available, but that the sub chaser. the U.S.S. Somers- worth. was not sunk or on fire. The Somersworth is about 250 feet long. the coast guard said. Another naval vessel. with two doctors aboard, was racing to the scene, the coast guard said.

It was understood that the navy wanted the Queen Mary to stand by until the injured men could be

transferred to the navy vessel, but if there was a delay the liner might leave and take the men on to England. The Queen May has considerable h o I p l t al facilities aboard. ,

In New York. a navy spokeb man said the Somersworth was 150 miles east of New York in the Atlantic when the explosion oc- curred.

Nato To Receive Weapons From US

WASHINGTON (AP -President Eisenhower endorsed Wednesday the idea oi an American supply of atomic weapons for NATO. He said NATO members must be armed properly.

The yreslden said at a press conference that if a country is de- fending itself against a nuclear at- tack it ought to have the resource to respond in kind.

Furthermore, Eisenhower con- tinued, if the United States sup- plird atomic weapons to NATO powers then those countries would not have to manufacture their own atomic weapons and would avoid the economic strains resulting from creation of a nuclear wea- pons industry.

Tributes To late Mr. MacPhee

The following tributes to the late Mr. H.F. MacPhee. M.A.. Q.C., have been received for publicat- ton;

From the Hon. 'l'h-re A. Camp bell. Chief Justice of Prince Ed- ward Island:

"By the passing of the late H. Francis MacPhee, Prince Edward Island has lost one of her noblest and most distinguished citizens. He has been eminent in the public life of the Province since 1923 and has at all times commanded the respect and affection of everyone who knew him.

"I had the privilege of a long association with him. both in the Legislature and at the Bar. We were usually on opposite sides, but that gave me an opportunity to appreciate fully his outstanding competence and integrity.

WASHINGTON (AP) - Presi- dent Eisenhower eaya it might be helpful if his old wartime friend Marshal Georgi Zhukov - now a power in the Kremlin-would ex- change vlsits with Defence Secre- tary Charles E. Wilson.

The president, who has often given a boost to the Soviet mili- tary hero of the Second World War got so enthusiastic at his press conference Wednesday in recalling his conversations with Zhukov that some of his hearers feared he might be losing a propaganda round to the Communist in the cold war.

Eisenhower recollected that when Zhukov was the Soviet corn- mander in Berlin and he was the western Allied commander they had "many long discussions" about democracy and commun- ism. One evening they had a three- hour conversation, Eisenhower ro- called. and:

"We tried each to explain to the other Just what our two systems meant. to the individual, and I was very hard put to it when he in- sisted that their system appealed to the idealistic, end we com- pletely to the matterlallnlc. and I had”: very mush page wins to ED Ni ”

contention that communism is deelistlc because it requires that the individual sacrifice his interest for the state while democracy is materialistic because it permits the individual to do as he pleases.

Eisenhower was asked whether he wanted to leave the impression that it was difficult to defend "the proposition that democracy is a more ideal system them commu- nism. '

in reply. Eisenhower asserted his own faith in democratic free- dom but "you could run into people you would have a hard time con- vincing that the sun is hot and the earth is round."

He said that in encountering the kind of strong belief in commu- nlsm held by Zhukov "you run agains arguments that almost leave you breathless, you don't know how to meet them."

Diplomats wondered whether Soviet propaganth would now pick up this point and try to us it as evidence that the leader of the Wutern dernocretlc world has found it hard to refute arguments of Communist idealism.
