On nhedning Of
Red A-bIasts
BY the Associated Press

Chairman Durham, Democrat
|of North Carolina, Of the Sen
ate-House Atomic Energy Com
|mittee. said today a series OF
five Russian nuclear test explo-
sions this month indicates the
Soviets have a substantial supply
|of atomic weapons.
But another member of the
group. Representative Van
zandt, Republican Of Pennsyl-
vania, said the closely spaced
tests could mean the Russians
|are still trying to develop
weapons worth stockpiling.
Indicates Reds Have Weapons
The Atomic Energy Commits
sion said yesterday Russia on
Tuesday detonated somewhere
in Central Asia one of the larg-
est Of the five nuclear devices it
has exploded since April Is.
This series Of explosions
shows they have "a good supply
of finished weapons, not just
nuclear material" Mr.. Durham
said in an interview. "You would
not expect them to waste
weapons if they were In short
supply"
But in a separate interview
Mr.. Van Zandt said ths known
total Of Soviet tests, which he
placed at about 20. is still less
than a third the number already
conducted by the United States.
Soviets Copying
I'VE were testing one weapon
after another when we didn't
have many in stock" he said.
II think that's what the Soviets
are doing now-testing for first
one characteristic and then an
other. There's no point stock
piling weapons until you are
sure you have something worth
Istockpiling."
Mr.. Van zandt said he is not
advocating complacency and is
sure the Soviet Union has weap-
ons that could cause terrible
damage"
But he said he thinks the
United States is still ahead OF
Russia by about two years, and
that the Soviets do not yet have

In Athens. a Greek foreign
ministry spokesman replied that
Mr.. Menderes had no right to
criticize our government on
Greece's domestic affairs, to
draw arbitrary conclusions and
publicly express himself with a
lack OF objectivity and acuteness
which will in no wise serve good

SHOP FOR HONEY

Honey was one of mans first
foods, and probably his first avail
able sweet. 1t is a natural unre-
fined food. Honey is one of the
most healthful sweets that chill
dren can be given. In fact, it has
been recommended for infant
feeding because it contains simple
sugars which are assimilated and
do not have to go through di-
gestive process before they are
absorbed into the blood stream.
Honey is marketed in different
forms but about three-fourths of
it is sold as extract honey. The
forms and explanations of the
forms are as follows: Liquid or
Extract Honey is honey removed
from the comb. Comb Honey is
honey just as it is stored by the
bees. Chunk Honey is a combina-
ton of comb and liquid honey 1t
consists of pieces of comb with
extracted honey poured over them.
Creamed or Granulated Honey is
extracted honey that has been
crystalliZed into small minute
crystals which gives it a creamy
texture. 1t makes an excellent
spread.
Honey should be kept in a dry
place we'll covered. Store the
honey at room temperature-not
in refrigeration (creamed honey
may be stored in the refrigerator)
