Maurine Urges Pressure
To Halt Weapons Spread
WASHINGTON' (ITI) Sen.
Maurine H. Neuberger, D-Ore.,
suggested Tuesday that joint mili
tary pressure by the Vnited States
and the Soviet t'nion might halt
the spread of nuclear weapons to
smaller powers.
.Mrs. Neuberger's suggestion
came in a speech prepared for
senate delivery in which she
Hiineil in calling for a nuclear
test ban treaty.
She said agreement among the
t inted States, the Soviet I'nion
and Great Britain not only would
reduce the danger of radiation
contamination of the air but also
help slop other countries from
joining llie "nuclear club "
In her lirst public statement on
the proposed treaty, Mrs Neil
Iwrger said its potential returns
would be "limitless" and its risks
"minimal."
"We must carry to the Amrri-
: can people Ihe conviction that the
! risks embodied in the proposed
nuclear lest ban are I'ar less crit
ical than the risks of an nn
I cheeked, proliferating arms rare,"
j she told the Senate
