The fact that the resolution label the 40 provision

visit bodes no good for their econ
otnic well-being. The Chinese Com
munists, too, apparently have mis-
givings about the trip.
What will finally come of the
visit no one knows. OF course it
gives us an opportunity to see up
close the new ruler of the Soviet
Empire. Is he a Gar, another die
tator, or a man in his COS Just
as tired of turmoil and adversely
as his Western counterparts? The
chances are this argument viii not
be settled by Mr.. KS smiles or
scowls.
What does he expect from the
trip? Is it just to satisfy the nor
NAL curiosity Of a man who has
never visited America? Or does
he expect to work out some sort
Of increased trade with the West ?
Is it Mr.. Ks-and the Soviet Com
munists' way-of saying that they,
too. are fed up with talk Of war
and would like to go about build
ing their country, manufacturing
more consumer goods and enjoying
the better things Of life?
Nobody knows for sure. All we
know is that 81 out Of every So

can do about their anxieties. When
they suffer internal reverses they
need a scapegoat and Uncle Sam
has been a handy foreign enemy"
What happens to them If Mr.. X.
says Uncle Sam is a rather nice
old guy who does not rattle H
bombs or use germ warfare? They
are going to have to find someone
else to hate-and that's not easy.
PRELUDE TO wHAT?-Even
assuming that Mr.. K. is full Of the
best intentions In the world, there
must be politicians inside the Sow
let Union who also have a vested
interest in adversely, who stand to
benefit by prolonged international
difficulties. What they may do, to
undo, the effects Of a successful
mission are the main reason why
thoughtful people in this Capital
are keeping their fingers crossed.
1t is only 20 years ago, plus one
month, that Josef Stain conclud-
ed his deal with Adolf Hitler that
gave the Nazis the go-ahead into
Poland and touched off World
War II. 1t was only IS years ago
that Japan sent two peace en-
issaries" to this country, almost
on the eve of Pearl Harbor.
Now we learn, 20 years later
from Mr.. X. himself, that Stain
was a paranoid and from Asian
historians we discover that the
japanese high command was deep
ly divided over the question Of
future relations with America.
During my recent vacation I re-
ceived any number Of messages
from special interest groups who
were (unconsciously) hoping that
the Soviet Premier's visit was
great fiasco. The ones that were
easy to understand were those of
refugee organizations, Hungarians
and others who have, even since
Mr.. X. has been in power, suf-
fered from Soviet tyranny.
But those who amused them
selves with stories about Vice
President Nixon's move to the
left" and the Republican admins
tration being soft on communism"
left me cold. The irony Of the Ad-
ministration's reyersals has not es-
capped anyone here, but there Is too
much riding on this visit for pea
nut politics.
1t isn't necessary for the nation
to go ga-ga over the Soviet Prem
Ter. But we don't want to look 80
much to the past that we neglect
an opportunity for real peace, II
that's what the Soviet leader has

There are certain people in this
country, and probably in Red
China, who win benefit from keep
ing conditions unsettled. All Of US,
I suppose, know individuals who
just cannot stand prosperity, who
are not enjoying themselves un-
less they are miserable. But those
who want to look to the past for
other reasons are also dangerous
people, because their motives may
be economic munitions lobby or
ideologic (Chinese Reds).
Let's assume, for a moment,
that things do go well and that
some working arrangement is
worked out with the Russians.
What win this do to the economy
Of the country when 30 much Of
our national budget goes for arms :?
The least 1t win do is to cause

as we plan for war.

permissible for workers.
AS for protection Of whole
populations against radiation
exposure, the committee said
that at present, such exposure
is not subject to the same con-
trolls applicable in or near
atomic plants.
But the group indicated that
reasonable safety to popula-
tons as a whole could be ex-
pected from keeping exposures
TO one-tenth those deemed per-
Missile for atomic workers.
The lower level was set for the
public to provide a factor OF
safety and to keep the genetic

is the amount of radiation

Atom Radiation
Safety Limits
Are Doubled

A committee Of radiation ex-
perts says it believes the human
body can safely tolerate twice
the amount Of radioactive
strontium that earlier was
thought permissible.
The report came yesterday
from the National Committee
on Radiation Protection and
Measurement-an organization
Of governmental and private
experts in the field.
The committee has no official
status. but its recommendations
on radiation protection stand
ards in the past have been fol-
lowed by the Atomic Energy
Commission and the United
States Public Health Service.
The new report raised the
recommended permissible values
for some radioactive materials.
lessened values for others and
left some unchanged. A big
reduction was recommended for
cesium-137, the second most
feared product Of nuclear fall
out.
All-SOurce Maximum Same
1t was made clear that the
new recommendations will in no
way change the maximum per-
Missile dose of radiation from
all sources which the committee
recommended in 1857.
The recommendations we're
drawn up specifically to apply
to those working in and living
near atomic energy plants. but
in general way they can be
applied to all persons.
In an allied action, the COM
mittee recommended something
that would mean a 20 per cent
upward revision in the amount
of strontium deemed permissi-
BILE in milk.
Radioactive strontium is the
r1oSt-feared constituent of fall
out from nuclear bomb ex-
plosions because it could cause
bone cancer if present in the
body in sufficient amounts. The
material is also a potential haz-
ard of working in atomic energy
plants. and of any exposure to
wastes from such plants.
Handbook Coming
The committee made these
and other recommendations in
a report previewing a forth
coming handbook. The recon-
mendations were based on some
1000 separate research studies.
The organization said its
recommendations regardin g
some 240 radioactive materials
were designed specifically only
for workers in atomic energy
plants, and on the basis of
continuous occupational ex-
posure" for SO years-a possible
length of occupational life for
, someone starting work at
age 10.
But it added they also would
apply to people living near
such plants-though at rec
commended levels Of exposure
