Well, says Soviet Premier Khru shchev, it was like this: Scientists were locked up in a room and be fore they were let out they split the atom. The story was told by the Soviet Premier i n a speech published Wednesday. The speech was given Feb. 23 in Moscow at a meeting of agri cultural experts studying methods to put the U.S.S.R. ahead of the United States in food production. As an object lesson and to show the urgency of the problem, Khrushchev told the delegates about the old days when only America had the atom bomb. “At that time, American im perialists had started their atom policy of frightening Socialist countries and first of all the Soviet Union. That was a difficult time for our country. But what did our party and people do? They called upon the best scientists, physicians, mechanics, chemists, mathematicians and specialists and started working.” Khrushchev drew on a Russian folk tale attributed to the time of Queen Elizabeth I of Britain to get his point across. “We have an interesting story by Leskov,” Khrushchev said. “The personage .of this story;Levsha, was locked up and allowed to get out only after he put shoes on a flea given him by a British queen. “Our workers in their labora tories worked in the same manner. They thought, calculated, experi mented and at least reached their goal. They split the atom.” Rifle Awards Five A&M students have been presented Leatherneck Magazine Rifle Marksmanship Awards as a result of rifle-firing competition last summer during Platoon Lead ers Class training at Marine Corps Schools, Quantico, Va.

Ileo firmly denied that the mili tary pact he signed at Elisabeth- ville with Katanga President Moise Tshombe and President Albert Kalonji of southern Kasai implied any resognition of their claims to independence. Nor does the fact weaken President Joseph Kasa- vubu’s claim to be the head of all the Congo, he added. The wiry little premier said he hopes the leftist rebel leaders of Stanleyville will attend the con ference called for March 5 in Tan anarive, Malagasy Republic, even though these are the Communist influences he is opposing. “In that neutral atmosphere of a friendly, land we should be able to iron out our differences with only a few days of discussions,” Ileo said. Antoine Gizenga, the Soviet- supported rebel leader in Stanley ville; his military strong man Gen. Victor Lundula; and Anicet Kashamura of Kivu Province have been invited to attend. Gizenga has given no indication of whether he will accept. It would be another step toward solving the problem of reconcilia tion or chaos on which U.N. Secre tary-General Dag Hammarskjold warned the Congo leaders in his latest blast. Cuban Youths Shout Death For Priests By The Associated Press HAVANA—Hundreds of school- children screamed for the excu- tion of Roman Catholic priests Wednesday night at a demonstra tion protesting the terrorist bomb ing of a business school. “For priests, execution wall,” squealed the children in their high- pitched voices after labor leader Jose Maria de la Aguilera charged that the “instruments of imperial ism is found behind a child’s face or under a priest’s cassock.” Older demonstrators shouted, “Priests, thieves, let ’em take off their cassocks and put -on pants.” Earlier, Cuban officials had blamed the bombing Tuesday of Nobel Academy, in which nine girl students were injured, on “Yankee imperialism.” Two Catholic priests taking commercial courses at the academy and two other male students were held for investigation. Wednesday night’s protest dem onstration, arranged by the Con federation of Cuban Labor, was held in front of the damaged academy. While insisting the Congolese can work out their, own destiny the Leopoldville government made an outward show of compliance with stiff new U.N. demands for*.' cooperation by pledging to halt Congolese army attacks on U.H, puirie personnel here. | for its nation In cloudy language, Interior Minister Cyril Adoula told the same news conference: “We apply legality if necessary” as a step in halting the wave of rape, beatings, arrests and general han assment that Congolese soldierj ,se ^ have inflicted on U.N. military and civilian personnel. jest am bowl il team lore say comps me fliers e Adoula did not elaborate.
