Nuclear Scientist Asks For Revision On Data Release WASHINGTON I A nurl-ar icientist called Wednesday for re vision of the Atomic Energy Act to permit release of additional technical information to univer ily and industrial atomic re searchers. V. Lawrence Parsegian, protes tor of nuclear engineering at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute Troy, N. Y., said the nation's atomic program was "seriously hampered by secrecy" despite de classification of large volumes of technical information. "The fault lies in the concept that information is 'born classi fied' in reactor technology." he said in a statement prepared fori neanng 01 me Joint congres sional Committee on Atomic En ergy. In effect, he said, this "elim inates the majority of technical men in universities and in indus tries from effectively participat ing in the 'idea' or exploratory stage of reactor development." Parsegian laid that because the United States no longer had a monopoly on the atom "our de- fpnsp muct imnrnuA an1 JaiunJ primarily on the industrial and technical strength of the nation. "The time is ripe to help in dustry to prepare for internation al competition for atomic mar kets by bringing the full strength of colleges and industries to sup port the atom." By f LTON C. FAY WASHINGTON 11 To the esti-l mated 40 billion dollars which would be needed for a national program of building H-bomb shel ters, add another TOO million dol lars for establishing a reliable: warning system to tell all the peo ple to take cover. A study made for the National: Academy of Sciences' Advisory Committee on Civil Defense makes that cost estimate for the warning system. I The report was prepared last year by Willard Bascom, an engi neer and scientist, but comes to at tention now in light of a White House announcement last week that it has-an H-bomb shelter pro gram under active consideration. That announcement said the cost of such a project might run be tween 20 billion and 40 billion dol lars. Rep. Albert Thomas (D-Tex) said a shelter program to provide "minimum protection" against hy drogen bomb attack would cost from 35 to 40 billion dollars based on civil defense estimates. Weapons' Effects Spread The study prepared for the acad emy is based on two premises: 1. "The old concept of warning only those who live near the cen ters of potential target areas is not acceplaDie. initial weapons ef fects can reach out SO miles and fall-out can go many times far ther; bombs in aircraft which are brought down by our defenses may explode and missiles from submarines or other continents may go wild and miss their tar gets by many miles." 2. Probably by 1960, when trans oceanic missiles are ready for use. warning time will drop to "a mat ter of minutes." The academy study says that "a reasonable goal" to aim for is the ability to warn K per cent of the United States population within five minutes. A nationwide, effective warning system would include both interior and exterior systems such as radio and telephone devices, sirens and specalized equipment for sounding warnings in factories and other places where the normal noise lev el might drown out a siren sound. Speed of clocks is based on the turning of the earth which varies less than 30-100ths of a second in a century.
