EMBALMERS Phones 41 and 399-J A second talk was set for late this afternoon with prospects that spe cific military problems would be discussed, including possibly atomic energy and Britain’s campaign to get its new rifle adopted as stand ard equipjnent by Western armies. The late hour presumably was set to give Churchill time for his customary afternoon nap.— In an effort to spur the West’s rearmament drive, the President and the 77-year-old Churchill named a high ranking committee of specialists to seek ways of in creasing raw materials supplies needed by British and American industry. Charles E. Wilson, American mo bilization chief, was selected to head the American. group. Lord Cherwell, Britain’s paymaster gen eral, was appointed to head the British side. The White* House, in its official statement said nothing about spe- J cific raw materials to be discussed. But informed officials said after ward that high on the list were: 1. Steel; Britain has been ur gently seeking from 800,000 to 1,- 500,000 tons from outside sources^ ►mainly the U. S., in 1952 to keep* : its civilian and military output | rolling. “ 2. Tin: The U. S. has virtually i exhausted its available tin supply i because of its .refusal to pay more than a $1.12 a pound. British Ma layan tin is^available—but at a higher price. \ 3. Copper: Both American and British industry urgently need more copper. Copper currently is being allocated by the. 28-nation Interna tional Raw Materials Conference to which Britain and the U. S. belong. 4. Aluminum: Anxeracan plane production at present is being ham pered by an aluminum shortage. Britain gave up part of its Cana dian-manufactured supplies to the United States in November but with the understanding it would be repaid. _ 1 5. Sulphur: Britain still is suffer ing from an acute shortage^ even though international allocation has eased the scramble. ~ 7 " The Wilson-Cherwell team is to report back to the President and Churchill tomorrow Precisely what ' they can do in \his one-shot study is I uncertain. But British officials said ! if the nature ‘of their problem is ; understood better as a result, the ef fort will be a success in their minds’?' Informants who briefed reporters at the morning sesion stressed that Mr. Truman and Churchill in dis cusing Atlantic pact matters real ized that any changes in piact ma chinery would require approval by all 12 North Atlantic countries. The topic came up for discussion despite this, they said, to make cer tain both governments are thinking along parallel lines—that future At lantic pact council meetings should be made more flexible and more in formal.
