Possibility Is Seen That Lawmakers
Will Find No Significant Opposition
JOSEPH KRAFT

A test-ban agreement with
the Soviet Union has been
in the forefront Of interna-
tional possibilities, on and
off now, for at least five
years. But so far there has
never been a thorough pub
lie airing Of the issue. The
debate that will open up
when the President puts a
test-ban agreement to the
Senate for ratification is
thus q new thing. And 1t may
hold out some important
surpriseS-including a show
ing that, In the country at
large. there is no significant
opposition to a test-ban
treaty.
To be sure, there has been
discussion ad nauseam Of a
test-ban over the past five
years; and many heated ex-
pressions Of opposition. But
the opposition has come
chiefly from two groups, mu-
tually reinforcing and with
formidable negative powers,
but essentially small, and
with a large element Of the
bogus in their arguments and
tactics.
One group is q know
nothing" group outside the
Government. It is closely
akin to the radical right, and
it has opposed a test-ban
with the familiar arguments
Of the extremists. It claims,
in the words of a recent res
olution by the Illinois Fed
Grafton of Republican Wom-
en- that a test-ban is the first
step in a plot, more dam
aging to. American interests

ish U. s. armed forces and
nuclear weapons" and to
subject us to a United Ma
tons Peace Force" That
kind Of logic. of course, finds
few supporters in the Con-
gresS. But there have been
even fewer public officials
willing to court that kind Of
opposition by supporting a
test ban-the more so as
there were few signs the Rus
SLAMS would agree anyway.
The second group is a
"know everything" group in
side the Government. 1t is

Inc DlggeSCs oeluSlon OF
modern times is contained in
the "nuclear st-ban" treaty
just initiated" at Moscow by
representatives of the United
States, Great Britain and the
Soviet Union.
Formal signing is to come
later, and ratification by the
United States Senate is nee
essary before the document
can be regarded as in effect
for this country.
The agreement, however,
does not do what most peo-
pie probably think it does
reduce the danger of a nu-
clear war. Indeed. the i'm
preston is mistakenly given
that 1t means the abolition
Of nuclear war. This is due
to the emphasis that has
been placed on the meeting
at Moscow and because of
the protracted crusade for
the test-ban which has been
carried on in recent years,
largely by pacifist groups in
various countries.
But the new treaty would
not bar the use of any nu-
clear weapons in war.
1t would not bring about q
reduction In the existing
number Of nuclear weapons
possessed by any govern
ment or limit in any way
future production.
1t would not bar nations
other than the signers from
carrying on whatever tests
they pleased.
III would not prevent nu-
clear tests underground.
1t would not guarantee
against attempts to cheat by
conducting tests above the
ground. Russia cheated last
time and deliberately vio-
lated her agreement.
The military advantage to
the Soviet Union lies in the
fact that the United States
is ahead in the kind of
weapons, that require under
ground testing, and now the
Soviets have gained a free
hand to improve their posi-
ton and catch up with the
United States in this field.
Also, the Soviet Union is be-
lieved to have gone ahead in

Importance of a tax cut.
He said the present advance

on, this rate of growth can
be expected for the rest of
1868 but Gin the absence of tax
reduction, the outlook grows
increasingly uncertain as we
look beyond the end of this
calendar year
Looking ahead to 1864, rapid
gains are unlikely without a
strong stimulus from tax re-
duction. and even moderate
expansion may be in doubt"

A-W0r and the 7est-Bon Treaty

however. that 1t isn't as SIM
pie as 1t sounds and that
continuous testing is impor-
tant in developing many va
rieties Of defense weapons.
America, they explain, will
have to be satisfied with its
present strength and take a
chance that the Russians will
not increase their offensive
or defensive power in the
nuclear field.
American military men are
uncertain. They haven't had
much of a voice in the nego-
tiations. They are skeptical
but probably will be required
for reasons Of policy to go
along on the new treaty with
out making much protest.
But Congress in which
there is an abundance of
skepticism - will make a
thorough inquiry and carry
on q considerable debate. In
the end, the chances are that
the agreement will be &C
copied by the Senate on the
vague theory that it is "a step
in the right direction" But
there's q lot yet to be done
before any tangible benefit
can be derived from the
pact. China, for instance,
can go ahead on its own
with tests, and so can France.
If either country does so,
this could automatically ter
inmate the new treaty three
months thereafter.
Nuclear war, therefore,
can happen despite the new
agreement. Further Develop
ment of only certain kinds
of nuclear weapons will have
been deferred for the time
being, Meanwhile, the delu-
sion that nuclear war has
been somehow banned by the
agreement initiated at Mos
COW this week will gain
Roadway. Actually, however,
the true barrier to the pre-
vention Of a nuclear conflict

government-isn't likely to
be removed by the signing of
an agreement with the kind
Of regime which rules today
in the Soviet Union and
which is constantly extend
ing its influence by infiltra-
ton and subversion in all
continents Of the world.

Coming Attest Treaty Debate

that the issue is one Of re.
stricted testing under an
agreed ban versus unre-
stricted testing without q
ban. He can further show
that with restricted testing
the Soviet Union will have a
smaller chance to overtake
the American lead in nuclear
weapons than it has with
unrestricted testing. He can,
in other words, turn the
knife edge of anti-commu-
nism against the opponents
of a test-ban treaty.
In these circumstances, 1t
Is clear that the coming de-
bate will be a thing very
different from all the past
discussions. Already, there
are some signs indicating the
weakness Of the opposition
to agreement. A Gallup Poll
has shown that nearly three
quarters Of the voters favor
a test ban. Senator Dodd, of
Connecticut, once a leading
fighter against a test-ban,
has come round to a position
that will make it possible for
him to back the present
agreement. And then, there
has been the strange calm
that has fallen upon the
Senate during the Hartman
mission.
In part, no doubt, the hush
is attributable to an absence
OF information: the Senators
have been waiting to see ex-
actly what the agreement
says. But in part, also, the
calm may reflect a sense that
the country wants a test
ban. 1t would, after all, not
entirely surpass understand
ing to find that in the
United States peace was a
better issue than Red
batting.

and includes scientists, such
as Edward Teller, and Sena-
tors, such as Henry Jackson
Of Washington, who are in
close touch with the military
establishment. 1t has always
argued, behind the scenes,
against any restriction on
American military power
including a test-ban. 1t has
won its arguments by the
negative tactic Of forcing is
sues into impossible thickets
OF technical detail. 1t was
this group, for instance,
which virtually invented the
issue of underground testing,
with its endless quarrels as
to whether it was possible to
muffle nuclear explosions and
how many inspections would
be necessary to distinguish
earthquakes from nuclear
blasts.
Neither Of these groups is
going to disappear in the
Forthcoming debate. But they
are likely to be engrossed in
a larger public, and a cleaner
statement of the issue. The
Senate hearings will bring all
arguments out into the open,
thus curtailing the opportuni-
ty for acknowledgements
bureaucratic maneuver. The
issue Of underground test
ing, with its boundleSs pos
sibilities for technical quib-
ling, has been by-passed.
Moderate groups, as we'll as
extremists, will now have to
declare themselves. And the
President, with an agreement
in hand, will be in position to
pose the issue squarely.
He can, to be specific, show

certain categories, such as
anti missile missiles and
terror" weapons, which re-
quire atmospheric testing,
and the United States cannot
now conduct such tests to
catch up with the Russians.
1t is argued here in rebuttal,
however, that bombs requir-
ing aboveground or under
water testing have been &C
cumulated in sufficient
quantity to make such test
ing less important.
Then why all the hullaba-
loo about a nuclear test-ban
treaty or partial ban," as it
is more often termed? The
answer is to be found in the
political domain. The same
proposals were made in
previous years by the United
States but were rejected by
the Russians. Today, how
ever, for undisclosed reasons,
Premier Khrushchev is try
ing another tack. He sud-
denly indicated a few weeks
ago he was ready for a high
level conference at Moscow
on the subject Of nuclear
testing. Nobody knows why
he shifted tactics, but it is
assumed that he needed to
make some showing of
peaceful intent so as to quiet
his internal opposition and
deflate Red China's war
scare.
It is conceivable, too,
that the military experts of
the Soviet Union figured that,
If the United States were to
discontinue aboveground and
underwater testing, this
would in some manner halt
the nuclear development of
the United States in certain
categories of weapons and
prevent any real superiority
from being achieved.
AS for underground testing,
it will continue to be carried
on by both sides. Also, 1t is
contended that If the mora
forum on aboveground and
underwater testing is some
day broken by the Soviet
Union, the United States can
automatically resume testing
anywhere. The experts
