U. S. Delays
Underground
Test Blast
BY the Associated Press

The Government announced
today that technical difficult
ties" necessitate postponement
of plans to detonate a special
nuclear device underground at
Carlsbad, N. Mex, this year as
part Of its program to develop
peaceful uses of nuclear ex-
plosives.
The project, known as PROF
ect Coach"-aimed at study
ing the possibility Of producing
new chemical elements by
means of nuclear blasts-was
originally scheduled to be held
some time during 1868.
But the Atomic Energy Com
mission reported today that a
postponement was needed be-
cause of technical difficulties
related to the development of
the special nuclear explosive
device required for this expert
ment."
The original plans called for
defamation of a device packing
somewhat less than 10 kilotons
Of energy-the equivalent OF
10000 tons Of INT in a tunnel
shooting off from a 1,200-foot
deep shaft in a Carlsbad salt
mine.

Unbalanced BoIIot

United Air Lines has asked Federal
District Court for helping hand in un-
Scrambling, a labor representation case
involving an estimated 12,7OO of its
employees. Both the Brotherhood of
Railway Clerks and the international
Association Of Machinists want to rep
resent the 12,700 and the National Me-
diation Board, which has Jurisdiction
over the air carriers as well as the
railroads under terms of the Railway
Labor Act, has ordered an election.
United is bothered by two things.
One is that the 12,700. include lot of
workers who are neither railway (airline)
clerks nor administrator as cleaning
women, for example. Or are they clerks
OF the dust cloths, or engineers in
The second is that the pro-
posed ballot allows no opportunity to
vote against both unionS-to indicate the
workers prefer none at all, or perhaps
that they would like to start brand
new one, such as an international sis
terhood Of cleaning women. In either
of these cases, their only recourse is not
to vote at all-which is no guarantee
that they still will not be voted by
their clerk and machinist colleagues
under the bargaining representation of
one or the other union. This is hardly
sfree choice, although presumably that
is purpose of labor law.
Among other things, the court has
been asked to restrain the board from
holding the election until or unless the
ballot is changed to permit choice that
is in fact free and meaningful. Why not?
