Security Council Moots
Kennedy, in a statement read

meeting of the National Security
: Council, said the Initcd States
of nuclear weapons.
And then, Kennedy said, a point
would have been reached in which
progress would not be possible
w'"out suin weapons tests.
Kennedy once aaain empha
sized that the United Slates is
nrong militarily strong ennush
to retaliate with devastation if at
tacked. Large Blast Unnecessary
Kennedy also said the United
Slates, to demonstrate its nuclear
capabilities, would not have to
fire a nuclear explosive of .Si)
megatons or more such as the
Soviets detonated this week.
Kennedy read his statement to
a room crowded with cameramen
and reporters after a morning
meeting of the Security Council
the nation's top policy-setting se
curity agency. Former President
Harry S. Truman, a visitor in
Washington, was invited to sit in
on the meeting for a half-hour or
'so.

Underground Tests Held
This country has announced
three underground tests of its own
since tho Russian tests began.
Kennedy said the Soviet detona
tions have been in "complete dis
regard for the welfare of man
kind."
The Sovict tests in the atmos
phere have loosed radioactive de
bris which comes to the earth as
fallout. There is no fallout from
the underground testa the United
States has conducted.
Kennedy accused the Russian
of preparing for testa while nego
tiating toward a test ban treaty
at Geneva and "then contemtu
ously" unleashing fallout over the
world with its atmospheric explo
sions. He called this a piece of the
"Soviet campaign of fear," but
said it was also a possibly im
portant series of tests which
would enable Soviet leaders and
scientists to improve their capa-
oiuiies.
