Editorial Note
United States Representative Lodge addressed Committee I of the United Nations General Assembly on November 15 on the peaceful uses of atomic energy. At the close of his lengthy remarks, Lodge stated that he had just received authorization from the President “to state to you that the Atomic Energy Commission has allocated 100 kilograms of fissionable material to serve as fuel in the experimental atomic reactors to which the Secretary of State and I have previously referred and which are to be situated in various places abroad.” Lodge’s address is printed in U.S. Senate, 84th Cong., Atoms For Peace Manual, December, 1953-July, 1955 (Government Printing Office, 1955), pages 304-309.
