U.S.. Dedicotes Station
To Detect Atom Blasts

Agency in Washington, told the
distinguished gathering Of seis-
mologists that improvement in
detection techniques developed
at stations like the one here
can permit the United States
to make further concessions to
the Soviet Union in the nu-
clear test ban negotiations in
Geneva.
DR.. Rathjens acknowledged
that seismology cannot yet
claim to detect or identify
very small yields" Of nuclear
explosions-thoSe with tn e
force of a few thousand tons of

Prototype in Oklahoma
American scientists are con-
centrating on developing. long
range equipment, which can
distinguish nuclear explosions
underground from natural
events.
Much work remains to be
DONE" Defense Department
scientist Bates said, towards
achieving an Identification Ca
pability that world powers will
agree to-"
He said a 10-element array
established at a prototype sta
ton in Oklahoma sis able to
detect most known earthquakes
Of Magnitude 4 or more within
distances Of about 5000 miles,
with the exception Of a shadow
zone which often occurs be-
tween 900 and 1900 miles"
A Magnitude 4 earthquake
produces a seismic signal
roughly equal to that Of a nu-
clear underground explosion Of
two kilotons in volanic tuff
such as is found at the Nevada
nuclear test site.
Or. Bates disclosed that 40
recording vans have
been registering United States
underground tests In Nevada
from various sites at distances
as great as $500 miles away.
125 Research Stations
Great Britain. he said. Is also
operating a seismic research
array in Wyoming TO improve
its verification techniques for
a possible test ban.
In addition, l25 research
stations have been equipped
with advanced equipment to
monitor earthquakes and other
underground disturbances from
about so countries.
The seismic station here fea-
lures an array OF 10 seisome-
ters in hexagonal array. These
are expected 10 provide new
data not only from earthquakes
around the world but from ex-
periments in Mississippi later
this year.

MEANWHILE, Tenn, Feb
Is. - American seismologistS
gathered here this afternoon
to dedicate their most ad-
vanced equipment to detect un-
foreground nuclear explosions
and earthquakes.
When it is in full operation,
it will be able to detect small
tremors more than 5000 miles
away.
High Defense Department
and disarmament agency Off
cials participated in the dedi-
cation ceremonies.
A nine-pound charge Of TINT
was exploded on the station
site at $40 pm. to write the
signature" on the stations 80
seismographs and officially
open the research program
here.
Scientists hope this Cumber-
land Plateau Seismological OBJ
servatory will greatly improve
this country's capability to
police the nuclear-test ban
treaty now being negotiated in
Geneva.
Three other research stations
have been opened under Prof.

lection and Identification tech

weapons test ban.

Of the undergraduates detec-
ton program in the Defense
Department, called this noun
tain-top array of Super-sensi-
tive instruments for detecting
earth tremors certainly the
finest OF its kind in the entire

One Of the main purposes Of
the station is to help American

to Americas allies in Europe
that the United States will
make no deal with the So
Wet Union at the expense Of
other nations and other peo-
Piles, not merely because they
are our partners, but also be-
cause their interests and ours
converge"
Mr.. Kennedy unhesitating-
ly expressed his opinion that
the Soviet Union Is respon-
sible for world tension today.
He said:
1.-THE Communist drive to
impose their political and
economic system on others is
the primary cause of world
tension today. For there can
be no doubt that, II all ma
tons could refrain from in
terfering in the self-determi-
nation Of others, the peace
would be much more as
sured."
Mr.. Kennedy said, rather
hopefully, that this would re-
quire a new effort to achieve
world lava new context for
world discussions"
The proposed high : level
meeting in Moscow to dis
cuss a nuclear test-ban treaty
is a continuation of the West
ern powers effort to find
some basis Of understanding
with the Soviet Union, even
though world opinion has been
doubtful and skeptical that
much could be accomplished.
Mr.. Kennedy's speech on
the whole reflected a consci-
entious effort to advance the
cause Of world peace and to
reduce the cost of armament.
His words will be applauded
as an expression Of American
purpose. If the speech could
be reprinted in the newspa-
pers in Moscow and broadcast
over the Soviet radio-which
it probably will not be-there
would surely be an advance in
the cause of peace, because
basically the trouble in the
world is the lack of COMMUNE
cation between the Russian
people and the A merican
people.

Goal is Called Advancing of Peace
And Cutting of Armament Costs

Kennedy anticipated the ar
gument when he said: Even
the most hostile nations can
be relied upon to accept and
keep those treaty obligations,
and only those treaty obliga-
tions, which are in their own
interest"
Perhaps what must have
been the most difficult part
Of the Presidents speech to
prepare was that section in
which he issued this warning:
above all, while defending
our own vital interests, nu-
clear powers must avert those
confrontations which bring
an adversary to a choice of
either a humiliating retreat
or a nuclear war. To adopt
that kind Of course in the
nuclear age would be evil
dence only Of the bankruptcy
Of our policy--or Of a COL
lective death-wish for the
world.
ITO secure these ends,
Americas weapons are nom
provocative. carefully con-
trolled, designed to deter and
capable of selective use. Our
military forces are committed
to peace and disciplined in
self-restraint. Our diplomats
are instructed to avoid unnec-
essary irritants and purely
rhetorical hostility.
"For we can seek a relaxa-
ton of tension without re-
taxing our guard. And, for
our part, we do not need to
use threats to prove that we
are resolute."
The President was con-
scious of the many criticisms
that have recently been
launched against his admin
istration for giving the i'm
preston that the United
States is so afraid Of a nu-
clear war that it would pos
sibly surrender on a diplo-
matte issue rather than risk
the ire Of the Soviet Union.
Mr.. Kennedy's latest speech
is an effort to set such fears
