Vast Expansion Of Ismailia
A-Weapons Planned
New York, Dec. 5.
Chairman Gordon Dean of the Atomic Energy Commission, said on Wednesday night that tenta- tive plans are now being developed for a vast new expansion of America's atomic weapons output- the third since 1949.
Dean said the proposed expansion was spurred by the threat of the "Communist Colussus" tower- ing over the world's free nations and was made. feasible, at least in part, by fresh discoveries of uranium deposits in Canada and Colorado.

STERN BRITISH NOTE TO EGYPTIAN AUTHORITIES
British HQ, Canal Zone, Dec. 5,
A "stern" note was today handed to the Egyptian authorities in Suez after a high explosive bomb had been thrown during the night into the British Army's water filtration plant, reducing all water supplies for the Suez Garrison to half pressure, reports United Press correspondent Peter Webb.
The note was handed to the Egyptian Governor by Brigadier William Greenacre, British Commander in the southern sector of the Zone. It was the second in two days.
Although the Army spokesman would give no information, it is under- stood from reliable sources that the ote warned the Egyptians that failure to
restore order might lead to action by British troops.
"don't think we will have any more trouble after they read that letter,"
a senior British officer said.
In response 10 an earlier British
nute handed to the Egyptians after 24 hours of almost
continuous gun battles, an Arab mud hut village near the fistration plant was cleared of all inhabitants under Egyptian police supervision. No British troops were involved in the operation.

COMMENT OF THE DAY
Germany's Future
German
Adenauer, the West Chancellor, has gone to London with two problems on his mind-- reunion and rearmament. And his position is made the more difficult by reason of the fact that the two sub- jects, while of vital importance to the future of Germany, are not complemer. tary. Dr Adenauer is well aware that his Social Democrats' opposition in the Bonn Government, while favourably disposed to unification of East and West Germany, are violently opposed to any rearmament scheme that would align Germany, or any part of it, with the Western
The European powers. Chancellor is well aware that nothing must be done to jeopardise the safety of Western Germany. While unification in itself holds out no dangers in this direction Dr Adenauer is probably conscious of
the
possibility that subsequent elections might see him and his party ouated from power, and another government, more sympathetic to Soviet Russia come into being. Undoubtedly the Social Democrats in Western Germany could count on great incrcuse in strength from Eastern Germany, and this can be taken as the only reason why the Chancellor holds that Western Germany should be rearmed and integrated into Western Europe before reunion, with the East. Dr. Adenauer may be able to persundo the Western European powers that this is the best sulted course to take; on the other hand it raises this objection: it would postpone indefinitely the day when the rauniosą of Germany may bo possible. Reunion between a rearmed

Western Germany and Eastern state is inconceivable, since the one condition which might induce Russia to agree to unification would be the con- tinued disarmament of Germany and the withdrawal of occupation forces to the Oder and the Rhine. Nevertheless, reunion between West and East Germany could only be under striet conditions to secure a Central German Government against a revolutionary putach, and for the moment, Russia is not disposed to guarantee those con- ditions. Britain places highest impor- tance on German unification, with proper safeguards. As Mr Eden has expressed it, the common aim of the Western powers is a united Germany within a European community. Dr Adenauer fears

one com-
mentator observes, if the Germans wish to regain the power to defend them- selves they should be required to furnish guarantees that their guns,will not be turned against those willing to help them achieve their aspirations. Un the other hand, if they wish not to rearm but to regain their full freedom, to build up their heavy industries, steel above all, then they can do so only on torms fair to their Western European '; neighbours who are now struggling desperately to restore their economies. It is for the Germans to decide which way they wish to go and what guarantees they propose to offer.
