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.
