were hypocritical and had

War Threat Seen
Senator Aiken, Republican of
Vermont, saw in the Russian
announcement a long stride
toward war. But Senator Aiken,
a member of the Senate For
eign Relations Committee,
called for one more effort to
get from the Russians some sin
cere negotiation toward a ban
on nuclear weapons tests.
1T is my guess" Senator
Aiken said. that if testing is
resumed, war won't be very
far away.
The suggestion that Kennedy
address the United Nations
came from Senator Humphrey,
Democrat of Minnesota. This
move, he said, would dramatic
ally call world attention to
United States efforts to get an
agreement on a test ban.
Senate Republican Leader
Dirksen of Illinois said he did
not think it was a Congress

President such advice.

Dirksen retorted:

Thirteen Senators teamed up
today as sponsors of a resolu-
ton urging resumption of
United States nuclear weapons
tests in stern response to
RuSsia'S action in smashing the
moratorium on such trials.
The proposal was introduced
by Senator Dodd, Democrat of
Connecticut, as the Senate
opened its session in a mood of
icy anger over the threatening
gesture from Moscow.

Of California, the assistant

risy."

Stampeded and will think it

field continued.
He said the Russians have
shown no real disposition to
put a ban on nuclear testing
and Western proposals aimed at
an agreement have been re-
jected time and time again.
What our policy will be, no
one knows" the Democratic
leader added. I'D hope we
would study this mater care
fully. 1t has been stated that
if negotiation failed we would
feel it incumbent upon us to
resume testing underground to
avoid pollution Of the air"
Hopes for Agreement
He said Mr.. Khrushchev'S
announcement is another tao
tic tied to the ever-present crisis
over Berlin" and other crises
elsewhere with which the
Kremlin may confront the free
world.
Senator Mansfield said that
while the West is supposed to
have won a psychological VIC
tory in this case, he hopes the
SovietS will alter their course
and that somehow, some way,
an agreement can be reached"

KENNEDY
Bold NATO Action
Urged by President

to the Nation on July Is. Then
the President said:
II hear it said that West
Berlin is militarily untenable-
and so was BaStogne and so, in
fact, was Stalingrad. Any dan
gerous spot is tenable if men
brave men-will make it So"
Mr.. Kennedy's emphasis was
divided about equally between
preparedness and negotiations
with the Soviet Union on the
Berlin problem.
In addition to announcing
that foreign ministers of
Britain, France, West Germany
and the United States would
meet here in two weeks, he said
Ambassador Llewellyn Thomp-
son will be using those means
which are available to us" in
Moscow to sound out the Soviet
Union on the possibility for
negotiating solutions of the
Berlin and German issues.
"Brandishing of Weapons"
There has been a good deal
Of brandiShing of nuclear
weapons" by Soviet Premier
Khrushchev, the President OBJ
served. Il am sure Mr.. Khru-
Shchev knows very we'll what
the effect would be on the
people of this world Of ours
If nuclear weapons were ex-
changed in a massive way be-
tween countries which possessed
them. We will have to
wait and see now whether
from that consciousness on
both sides peace can be
achieved-which is our objec-
tive"
This comment preceded the
KhruShchev nuclear test re-
sumption statement.
At another point, Mr.. Ken
nedy cautioned that neither
side should attempt to impose
its will by brute force because
in that case it would be unsuc-
cessful and disaster would "be
the common result"
The President indicated West
German Chancellor Adenauer
had urged further steps by the
West to counter Communist
moves in Berlin. The West
German Ambassador here de-
liVered a letter from Mr.. Ade-
nauer to Mr.. Kennedy at the
White House yesterday.
THE main thrust of the let
ter was in regard to what meas
ures might be taken by the
countries which have RESPONSE
bilitieS in the area, to any fur
ther steps which might be taken
by the Soviet Union or the East
German regime to limit access
to the people of West Berlin or
access to West Berlin, and dealt
with that matter of counter
measures" Mr.. Kennedy re-
ported.
Not Unduly Disturbed
The President indicated he
could live with the latest re-
strictionS on allied and West
German travel to East Berlin
since the closing of many gates
at the sealed border. He ap-
peared to be less disturbed than
Chancellor Adenauer on this
point.

East Berlin is satisfactory in
any way" Mr.. Kennedy said.

we do not consider it Satisfac-

Little Value in
Super Bomb
BY the Associated Press

Some Pentagon atomic spe-
cialists said today they believe
Russia would get more propa-
ganda mileage than military
value out of any super nuclear
bomb with the blast power Of
100 millions tons of TINT.
United States officials have
)een discussing the possibilities
ever since Soviet Premier Khru-
'hchev claimed three weeks ago
that his scientists were pre-
Dared to develop such a super
bomb.
There was no sign that the
United States, which is believed
TO have H-bombs up to 20 meg
atoms, was being stampeded
into a race with the Russians
to get the monster weapon
first
THE propaganda value is
greater than anything else, !"
one official said when told of
the Russian announcement of
plans to push ahead with crea-
ton of a superbomb.
United States officials stress
that there is no arithmetic
progression in the effectiveness
OF nuclesr weaponS-that a 100
megaton bomb such as the
Russians are talking about
would not devastate an area
five times greater than would
a 20-megaton weapon. Accord
ing to some estimates, the de-
struction range would about
double,
The key, they say, is the
efficiency of the bomb-and
they claim the American ru-
clear bombs are very efficient.
Available officials could give no
information on the efficiency
of Russian nuclear weapons.
Il would be more afraid of
several smaller bombs strate-
gically placed and having much
more damage efficiency than
one big one," one official said.
One source familiar with the
views of military atomic Scien-
fists said I'VE have the capa-
city and we have the manu-
featuring processes" to go
ahead with a superbomb, but
"our people said there is no
point" in doing so.
Whats the sense OF killing
a city twice." was the way it
was put.
What was meant was that
20-megaton weapons already
are considered big enough to
lay waste any target.
There has been speculation
that United States B-52 stra-
,egic bombers each could carry
two 20-megaton bombs if neces-
'ary.
Some experts say a 20-mega-
ION bomb exploded on the
ground would completely de-
'troy-and kill everybody-to
range of about six miles from
The blast. Damage would be
heavy and about half the popu-
alton would die in an area

tween East and West Berlin
and it is possible for those who
have official responsibilities as
we'll as private citizens to pass
1t is limited and it is not in our
opinion in accordance with the
agreement, but it does exist.
At the outset of his news
conference Mr.. Kennedy had a
cordial word for the Belgrade
conference of unallied states
which opens tomorrow.
While most Of the countries
represented do not consider
themselves committed on GER
tain issues of the day, Mr.. Ken
nedy observed, I'VE do know
they are committed to the
United Nations Charter. The
people of the United States
share this commitment"
The President declared I'VE
believe that the peoples repre-
Sented at this conference are
committed to a world society in
which men have the right and
freedom to determine their own
destiny, a world in which one
people is not enSlaved by the
other, and in which the power
full do not devour the weak.
The American people share
that commitment. We have
pledged influence of this Ma
ton to the abolition of exploit
tation in all of its forms"
Latin Issues
The President dealt with two
questions on Latin America.
AS long as Cuba makes itself
"a willing accomplice to the
Communist detectives in this
hemisphere, we could not have
successful negotiations" Mr..
Kennedy told a Latin ques-
toner who told of Premier Fidel
Castro's complaint that the
United States negotiates with
Russia "but is afraid to nego-
tiate with Cuba"
On the resignation of Presi-
dent Janio Quadros of Brazil
and the turmoil it has caused,
the President said "it is a mat
ter which should be left to the
people of Brazil. It is their
country, their constitution,
their decisions, their govern
I am confident that they
are going to solve the problem
themselves without outside in
reference by any country"
White House Adviser Rich
ard Goodwin, the subject of a
controversy because of an in
formal chat he had with Cuban
economic boss ErneSto (Che)
Guevara at the Punta del Este
economic conference, is to con-
fer with Senate Foreign Rela-
tions Committee members at

noon, the President reported.

bloc as a whole, leaves the So

The statement appeared to

Geneva test ban talks after 1913
sessions begun in October.
1868.
Stress Peace Policy
The Russians showed con-
Germ about the possible effect
of their about-face on world
opinion. The Soviet statement
went to great length to plead
a "peace-loving policy" 1t di-
rected an appeal to those for
eigners who would perhaps
judge too severely the Soviet
Unions carrying out tests of
new types of nuclear weapons. -
The Russians said every pre-.
caution will be taken to mini
mize the harmful effects of the
thermonuclear weapon tests on
living organisms. But the pro-
gram outlined appeared clear
ly intended to shake the West
ern allies into coming to a con-
ference table more ready than
they are now to accept the
Russian demands for a German
peace treaty.
THE Soviet Union has
worked out designs for Great
ing series of super-powerful
nuclear bombs of 20, so. so and
100 million tons of INT" said
the statement issued by the Of
aftcial news agency TaSS.
Furthermore, the statement
continued, Soviet scientists have
developed powerful rockets to
lift the giant bombs ito any
point on the globe -
The rockets were described

as similar to those which shot
SovietS Astronauts Gherman
TItov and Yuri Gagarin on
space flights around the globe.
The announcement of the
Super-Super-bomb came as no
surprise, however. Mr.. Khru-
shchev on August 9 said Soviet
scientists had suggested they
could build bomb equal to
100 million tons of TINT and
that he would give the signal
for construction if prospects for
peace did not improve.
United States military ex-
perts said then it would be
comparatively easy to build
such a bomb but not worth
while from a military stand
point since present nuclear
bombs were powerful enough
TO wipe out an entire city.
Surprise to Public
The announcement landed on
the Russian people like all atom
bomb itself. Only lately have
they been given information to
let them know how seriously
the West is reacting to Mr..
" ii aiushchev's Berlin proposals.
This announcement appeared
likely to bring it home to them
with a bang. 1t told them:
The Soviet people. the So
Wet government cannot but
reckon with the fact that, like
20 years ago, ominous clouds
OF war are once again over
hanging the approaches to our
motherland, that West Ger
many and the present allies of
German militarists are fever
ishly engaged in military pre-
parations."
1t appeared certain that a
new deluge of letters would
come to Moscow from all parts
OF the country to indorse this
latest decision. But the atmoS-
phere of war that it seemed to
carry appeared certain to dis
turb Russians who have suf-
fered two disastrous wars in as
many genfations.

arms race.
The only immediate action
announcedS by the President
was that Ambassador Arthur
Dean is being recalled i'm
mediately from Geneva, where
he headed the American del.
egation trying to negotiate
with the Russians a treaty tc
ban all nuclear testing.
Ironically, the Soviet an
Inouncement that it was re-
suming testing came shortly
after a press conference at
which the President said Mr.
Dean would go on with the
negotiations for only another
week. He explained that by
the end of next week he
though I'VE will have an answer
it is going to be possible to
reach an agreement"
Russia's action thus Speeded
up by little more than a week
the need for a decision on
whether the United States
should resume testing to de-
velop new nuclear weapons in
the absence Of an effectively
controlled test ban agreement.
Mr.. Hatcher told reporters
this morning that the Presi-
dent. who had been expected
to fly to his Hyannis Port,
Mass. home this afternoon for
a long Labor Day week end,
would not leave today. He
said he did not know whether
Mr.. Kennedy might go to Hy-
annis Port tomorrow.
Got Advance Clue
The first hint that some
thing was in the wind from
Moscow reached the White
House at $40 pm. yesterday,
Mr.. Hatcher said.
He said this was information
that an important announce
ment was coming from the
SovietS.
At 4:05 pm, Mr.. Hatcher
said, came a report that the
Russians were going to an
noune resumption of nuclear
testing. The President had
started his press conference in
the State Department audito-
rum at 4:05 pm. He knew
nothing about the Soviet de-
velopment until he returned to
the White House at about 4:45
pm.
Mr.. Hatcher said he Presi-
dent was informed shortly after
$50 pm. that the news flom
Moscow was confirmed.
It was not until 7 pm. that
TaSS, the Soviet news agency,
broadcast the official
announcement, boasting that
Russia was creating super
nuclear bombs equivalent to
100 million tons of TINT, and
had the rockets to send such
bombs anywhere in the world.
Rusk in Conference
Secretary of State Rusk went
to the White House at 7:45
pm. and conferred with the
President in his oval study in
the executive mansion.
Mr.. Hatcher issued the state
ment resulting from these con-
ferences shortly before 10 pm.
The White House statement
emphasized that the Moscow
announcement indicates the
complete hypocrisy" of Soviet
professions about general and
complete disarmament"
1t said the Soviet action
blocks hopes that an agreement
to end nuclear weapons tests
under effective safeguards
would represent a major
breakthrough in the search for
an end to the arms race" would
stop the accumulation of stock
piles of ever more powerful
weapons and would inhibit the
spread of nuclear weapons to-
other countries.
Three Years on Accord
1t charged that the pretext
offered by the Soviet an
nouncement for esuming.
weapons testing, "is the very
crisis which they themselves
have created by threatening to
disturb the peace which has
existed in Germany and Ber-
lin"
The Geneva negotiations for
test ban agreement have been
dragging on for nearly three
years. :
The negotiators held their
