Washington 'IP A group of radiation experts advised the government to continue atomic weapon tests but only at the minimum rate necessary for scientific and military purposes. The expert?, members of the Atomic Energy commission's ad visory committee on Biology and Medicine, said the harm caued by radioactive fallout from tests "is well within toler able limits." But this, a commit tee report said, is not generally realized. So it recommended: "In view of the adverse reper cussions caused by the testing of nuclear weapons, the committee recommends that tests be held to a minimum consistent with scientific and military require ment and that appropriate steps be taken to correct the present satu of confusion on the part cf the public." Tests re 'Juitified' Th committee said "it seems obvious" that if the United States wants "to maintain a first class military organization for the safety of the country, we must at least keep abreast of new weapons developments." This cannot be done without tfe:s. it said, adding: "Therefore in terms of na tions! security, necessary tests of nuclear weapons are justi fied" Russia currently is staging test? in -jbrria and Britain and the United States have recently concluded 1937 test programs. This country has announced it will stage new tests in the Paci fic startins next spring. U.S. Fallout Alone Average The committee based its con clusions on estimates of world wide contamination by fallout in the past and in the indefinite future if tests by all nations are continued at the rate of the past five years. It emphasized that fallout in the United States has been considerably larger than the world averase. Althouch the committee con siders that the harm being done at the present rate is "tolerable" it warned that if more and more countries embark on test pro grams "the situation may well become serious." Assuming tests will continue at the rate of the past five years, the committee made estimates of fallout damage in four cate gories: The increase in genetic de fects, or damage to reproductive cells which is passed on to fu ture generations, the increase in the number of deaths caused by leukemia, a blood disease; the increase in bone tumor cases: and the life-shortening effect of fallout radiation. Library To Re-open In Shady Cove Shop Shady Cove The county li brary station at Shady Cove was scheduled for re-opening today in the Treasure Trove shop, ac cording to library officials.
