NEW YORK, April % R.-
DR.. Albert Schweitzer said to-
day that the clean" hydrogen
bombs being produced by the
United States are intended
primarily for display-case pur-
poses.
They are window dressing,
he said, intended to convince
people that there is no real
argument for disseminating

Says Danger Is Belittled
The 1852 Nobel Peace Prize
winner accused the gre t
powers, the international press
and the guardians Of interna-
tional law Of belittling the
dangers of radioactivity.
No world power, he said, has
the right to test nuclear
weapons If they are harmful to
future generations.
DR.. Schweitzer's latest world

States and Britain to follow
Russia's announced ban on
nuclear testing.
The appeal was made in the
