Il A.BIasts
Underground
BY the Associated Press

The United States plans II
small underground nuclear ex-
plosions and possibly 81 blast.
with conventional explosive,
during the next two years.
The purpose of the explo-
sions-first nuclear tests of any
kind by this country since late
l958-if to improve method,
of detecting subsurface atomic
blasts.
The Joint Senate House
Atomic Committee made public
yesterday a Defense Depart
ment document specifying the
number of shots planned. On
May Z President Eisenhower
had announced there would be
a new series of underground
tests.
Geneva Controversy
The planned American tests
brought on a bitter controversy
in the three-power test ban
talks in Geneva. The Russians
have not replied to an Ameri-
can compromise offered last
week. 1t would allow Soviet
technicians to go to the United
States and explode their own
nuclear weapons in some of
the planned tests
Moscow has demanded safe
guards to prevent the re-
search program from being
used as a cloak for the secret
testing Of new weapons.
The Defense Department es-
timated the cost of the new
test program during fiscal 1861
at $65,840,000, including $42,-
$780, 900 for the actual nuclear
and non-nuclear blasts. No
cost estimates were given for
the year beginning July /.
1861.
Besides developing methods
Of detection of sneak under
ground blasts, the new pro-
gram will try to develop
peaceful uses of nuclear explo-
sives-such as digging canals,
diverting rivers for irrigation
and opening up new natural
resources.
The department report also
told of a less-extensive re-
search program in detecting
underground explosions which
has been under way since 1913
One reason for this program
has been to keep track of any
kind of earthshock activity
natural or man-made-origi-
mating in Russia.
