detected north of Stockholm, apparently because
of a radiation leak in the Soviet Union. Similar in
creases in radiation levels wore reported in
Finland.
It was believed to be the first time the Soviets
had reported on a nuclear accident. The initial ac

Soviet Council of Ministers that was carried by
.. Tass.

mission has been sot up, .‘tiding, ‘'measures are
(wing undertaken to eliminate the consequences
of the accident.”
One nuclear reactor was damaged in the acci
dent. Tass said. The Tass report gave no other
details.
There is a city in the Ukraine named Cher
nobyl. north of Kiev. It was not clear from the
Tass report whether that is where the nuclear
plant accident occurred.
In New York, Eugene Gan thorn, an analyst at
the office of the Atomic Industrial Forum, a U.8.
industry group of utilities and suppliers, said the
nuclear plant is located at a new town called
Pripyat near Chernobyl. The plant constat* of four
t.OOO-megawatt reactors constructed in 1077., .
t081 and 1HH3. he said
The city of Chernobyl is some 750 miles from1
the area in Sweden where officials reported-in
creased radiation. ...
