Craig Hosmer, R-Calif., following the Atomic En ergy Commission's statement that it had "Inconclusive" evidence that the Soviet Union might have conducted low-yield nuclear tests. Hosmer,' in suggesting that the Russian tests might have been carried out partially underground. Indicated that such shots might confuse the West's test detection system. No "Real Information" He said that there was no "real Information about what the ef fects are" on distant detection systems of blasts set off half-in and half-out of the earth. Hosmer said that "undoubtedly the seismic effects are different from those of a fully under ground shot and the electromag netic and sound effects are dif ferent from those of a completely atmospheric explosion." Electromagnetic radiations and sound waves from air bursts, plus radioactive debris spread around the world in tho atmosphere, pro vide normally dependable clues to above ground tests. But Hosmer suggested that ra dioactive material from a partial ly underground small test might not be thrown high enough to diffuse quickly beyond the Soviet borders. "This is a significant environ ment for tests, and no concentrat ed study has been made of it," he said. Hosmer said the Russians con ceivably could achieve "very spectacular developments" with such testing. Ho mentioned the all-fusion "clean" bomb which he said the Russians would find of great military value in an inva sion, say, of Western Europe. Small clean nuclear weapons, lacking the radioactively "dirty" fission ingredient, would wreak havoc on the battlefield without poisoning the countryside general ly and damaging cities outside the combat area. "I feel that In any Instance where there is an opportunity to get a nuclear jump on us, the Soviets will do so," Hosmer said He said he was convinced the Russians had "engaged in tests we know nothing about.

Hove that an increase in the use of Negroes in shows will bring retaliation from consumers who are foes of desegregation. Now there is also the added threat that Negroes may retaliate with a boycott of specific prod ucts. It will come as no surprise to readers in the South that the so called northern experts of Madi son Avenue in New York' find comfort in writing off the whole problem by pointing solely below the Mason-Dixon line. Yet at least one top spokesman for Negroes has been quoted as saying: In some cases where Negroes are on television pro grams, more complaints are re ceived from the North than the South." . One thing is clear, and it is this: , - ' The outcome on the headache, for most national sponsors, will have less to do with any matter I Ull Willi dllV IlldllUl of belief in either position than with a dollar profit. For while both advocates and opponents of desegregation are fighting for principles they believe in, it is a rare sponsor which ever side he may be on who lets conscience interfere with a profit-and-loss column. lit sum, many ' sponsors will simply act after seeing who can do them the most good and least harm in dividends. However, as multiple sponsorship of shows in creases, more power of decision seems likely to rest with the net works and stations themselves. There are. of course, exceptions to tiie probable sponsor action. Some major advertisers are mo tivated in great part by princi ple, whatever direction it may take.. And local and regional ad vertisers are more likely to be specially attuned to the particular feelings of their areas. It is Hie national seller of hard goods who thinks mainly in volume terms.

In this decision, the FCC banned "option time." by which the net works were allowed to comman deer the best viewing hours of their affiliate stations for national shows, and therefore for national sponsors. With option time banned the stations can accept or reject any -network show, and if and when the matter of: race comes up, as it seems certain to, local attitude and consumer Interest will assuredly play a greater part than ever. .
