British Announce
New Hydro-Bomb o
Made Almost Clean
London (W British tcien
tists have succeeded in making
an almost completely "clean"
hydrogen bomb, scientific
sources said Saturday.
The Ministry of Supply an
nounced Friday the successful
test of nuclear weapon at the
Christmas island proving
grounds in the , South Pacific.
The official announcement said
that "early Indications are that
the fallout will again be negli
gible." It was reliably learned that
the test involved a hydrogen
bomb.
Scientific observes said the
fact that the bomb, like others
tested earlier, had apparently
exploded without scattering radio-active
fallout over a wide
area indicated the weapons are
"clean."
Thus they can be used for
"tactical" purposes, if necessary,
The sources cited the fact that
the area closed to shipping for
Friday's test was reduced from
750,000 square miles to a com
paratively small 63,000 miles,
irithe previous tests, much of
the South Pacific around Christ
mas island had been placed off
limits because of the fear of ra
dioactive fallout.
A specially - equipped Royal
air force Valiant jet bomber
dropped Friday's bomb, which
sources reported was in the 10
megaton range the equivalent
of 10 million tons of TNT.
RAF Canberra bombers flew
through the swirling clouds
within minutes of the blast to
collect samples for etesting by
scientists.

Sputnik Causes Foregoing
Consumer Needs In Russia
By HENRY SHAPIRO
UP Press Staff Correspondent
Moscow (IP) "Mama, buy
me a Sputnik."
"There are no Sputniks on sale
here, Mischa," the Russian moth
er told her 8-year-old boy. The
scene was at the toy counter of
The Gum, Moscow's largest de
partment store.
Turning to a neighboring
shopper, the mother grumbled:
"I'm sure there will be many
more Sputniks in the skies be
fore our factories make such!
toys." .
Conditions Reflected
This dialogue, which probably
has been repeated thousands of
times among the people of Rus
sia, reflects two things:
How the Sputnik and all it
signifies has penetrated the pub
lic consciousness, and
The gulf between the suc
cessful Soviet policy of produc
ing what Russian authorities con
sider "first things first" and de
lay, if not entire disregard, of
secondaries.
There is not a single Soviet
citizen unaware of the immense
sacrifices necessary to achieve
the giant industrial and scien
tific strides Russia has made in
the past 40 years.
"Sure I'm proud of the Sput
nik and the ICBM," a taxi driv
er said the other day. "But I
still must work pretty hard to
fulfill my daily labor norm."
An engineering student put it
this way: "Our road has been
rough, but we certainly have
travelled far."
Kiss-Minded Girls
Smear Young Critic
Ann Arbor, Mich. (IT) A
University of Michigan junior
who wrote a letter criticizing
female "apathy" toward es
tablishing friendships with
males, was "attacked" Friday
night by three kissing-minded
girls.
The student, Richard W. Hal
laday, was besieged with kisses
and emerged lipstick-smeared
from his encounter near a wo
men's dorm. He said in a letter
to the student newspaper that
girls should take the initial step
in making contacts between the
two sexes.
Foreign Policy Hit
By Asian Leaders
At UNESCO Affairs
San Frani isco (IP) Two
orominent Asians spoke about
the United States Friday at sep
arate luncheons of the National
Conference of the U. S. Nation
al commission for UNESCO
one with praise and one with
criticism.
The speakers were U Thant,
Burmese ambassador to the Un
ited Nations and Dr. Ismail Bin
Dalo Abdul Rahman, ambassa
dor of Malava to the United
Stales and UN.
U Thant said the U. S. policy
of refusing to recognize Com
munist China "makes no sense '
?nd "needs thorough re-examination
and re-appraisal." He
sid America's opposition to
Red China's entry to the UN
damaged not Peking, but the
UN, "which is thereby ruled
out as an effective instrument
of International conciliation."
Pay Tribute
The Burmese paid tribute to
America's "mosl impressive rec
ord," but saia :.t has not won as
many friend? as 'it should in
Asia.
'The explanation, I think, ir
your extraordinary vigor, the
vehemence of the reactions and
your feelings and your failure
to ree the Asian mind," U Thant
said.
Dr. Ismail said Malaya is try
ing to strengthen national unity
by expanding social and cultur
al accomplishment, and urged
U. S. help in "satisfyingt his
Hunger", for knowledge and un
derstanding. "The whole Asian continent i
chirsting for a religious renais
sance, the rebirth of cultural
values and the improvement cf
moral standards." Ismail said.
"America can certainly fill the
need."
