Nuclear Test Talks Could
Be Near Great Showdown
' Geneva - IUP1) - The dead
locked nuclear test ban talks
- recessed early in December
(Dec. 5) until Feb. 7 -may
come to a final showdown in
1961.
U.S. delegate Charles C.
Steele, Britain's Sir Michael
Wright, and Russia's Semyon
K. Tsarapkin negotiated the
two-month vacation to carry
over until the new U.S. ad
ministration has taken over.
It was an expected move.
After the American election
verdict the talks, failed to
move forward toward banning
nuclear tests for weapons de
velopment," although the par
ties previously reached broad
agreement on the crucial
globe - girdling control sys
tem to police a ban.
President-elect John F.
Kennedy has pledged the new
administration to one last
"great effort" to conclude a
treaty, despite claims in some
U.S. quarters that the tacit
ban which now exists on nu
clear testing during the talks
may actually be permitting
the Soviets to test secretly.
Those who argue that way
are for dropping the talks and
resuming testing.
Fear Menace
Russian experts here believe
the Soviets would like a
treaty ban because they fear
China may develop nuclear
weapons and menace world
peace and the Soviet Union.
Insiders doubt that the recent
Communist summit has heal
ed the ideological rift between
Red China and Russia, despite
their statements to the con
trary. Crucial decisions will be
made in Washington and Mos
cow during the current recess
when East and West review
their aims and their offerings
which may at last produce a
treaty - or bring the whole
effort crashing down.
"The Russians have not
been negotiating at the talks
recently for one of two rea
sons," one leading western
negotiator told U.P.I.
"Either they decided not to
do business with the Eisen
hower administration, or they
felt they could offer no more
concessions," the source said.
"We will have to find out
(during the recess) which is
the true Soviet position. In
any case the new administra
tion will definitely not agree
to a treaty without adequate
control."
Experts emphasized the
Russians might well be afraid
to see Red China develop its
own nuclear weapons and use
them to give added weight to
its militant Communist ideol
ogy. China apparently believes
Communism would benefit
from a nuclear conflict with
the West. Russia has stressed
the value of "peaceful co
existence." During the marathon Gene
va talks, Tsarapkin has con
sistently tried to reduce the
proposed number of control
posts on Soviet territory -
and increase those in China.
Western sources said that
in some 270 i down-to-earth-sessions
the parties have
agreed to two-thirds of a
treaty acceptable to East and
West, . consisting of a pre
amble, 17 articles and two
annexes.
Cost Double
These articles spell out the
broad nature of 180 control
posts which would employ
three times as many persons
as the United Nations, and
cost twice as much to run
each year.
The system would use 10,
000 persons, compared to 3600
for the United Nations. It
would cost $100 million an
nually compared to $50 mil
lion for the United Nations.
The agreed articles define
the legal framework within
which the system would oper
ate. But the main stumbling
block is the limitation of
scientific equipment which
cannot identify accurately the
difference between earth
quakes and small underground
tests.
The disarmament negotia
tors have agreed equipment
should be perfected, and an
unpoliced moratorium called
on small underground tests
concurrently.
Cold War Tensions,
Disarmament Eyed
At Science Meeting
Delos Atnllb
By DELOS SMITH
UPI Science Editor
New York - IUPD - Scientists
looked at cold war tensions
and getting-nowhere disarm-
" ament efforts
Itoday and
were both de
pressed and
distressed.
Sir Charles
Snow, British
physicist and
novelist, said
that about a
dozen nations,
i n r l d 1 n 2
Pnmmnnist China, would have
atomic bombs within six years
and that within 10 years some
of these bombs would have
exploded through "accident,
folly or madness."
Snow, speaking at the 127th
meeting of the American As
sociation for the Advancement
of Science, criticized the
United States for seeking total
guarantees on inspection be
fore agreeing to nuclear bans.
He said the world faces a
much greater risk without any
nuclear testing ban than with
an imperfect ban.
Agrees on Dangers
Dr. Charles E. Osgood of
the University of Illinois, who
also spoke at the meeting,
agreed on the dangers result
ing from a lack of disarma
ment.
"All this frightens the liv
ing daylights out of me,"' he
said. To him, United States
and Russia are like raccoons
trying to get out of an experi
mental laboratory cage.
"A normally intelligent rac
coon trying to get out from
under a stinging shower will
bang its head against a lock
ed door that used to be open,
completely ignoring free pas
sageways to left and right,"
he said.
"In analogous fashion, na
tions today are lumbering
down the one habitual path
to 'security'-bigger and bet
ter weapons-gathering as they
go tensions which make it
less and less possible to con
ceive of any other alterna
tives. Being the habitual re
sponse to external threat, this
course is felt to be realistic' "
Dr. Jerome D. Frank, pro
fessor of psychiatry at the
Johns Hopkins University and
another specialist in the sci
ence of human nature, agreed
with Osgood that Americans,
Russians and citizens of lesser
nations are in a kind of rat
race which can lead to their
mutual destruction. He chose
to use more austere language,
however.
But they cannot decide on
the length of the moratorium
because the West wants a
maximum 27 months, and
Russia wants four to five
years.
Pressure Mounting -
The negotiators also have
not agreed to a coordinated
research plan, and pressure is
building up in the United
States to resume testing for
the unilateral U.S. "Project
Vela."
The Russians fear the tests
are to be used to develop
weapons. The U.S. says the
tests are to perfect instru
ments. But the U.S. has not
been able to offer "safe
guards" adequate to the Rus
sians. Other outstanding bedrock
issues which must be solved
before the West agrees to a
treaty: The annual number
of on-the-spot inspections to
check on suspicious disturb
ances, the exact composition
of the control commission,
and just how to install the
control system in six years.

Kennedy To Offer
Press Conferences
To Radio and TV
Palm Beach, Fla.-(UPD-Pres-dent-elect
John F. Kennedy
has decided to use the tradi
tional White House press con
ference much as the late Pres
ident Franklin D. Roosevelt
used the "fireside chat."
Kennedy will communicate
directly to large evening au
diences via "live" television
and radio.
Press Secretary Pierre Sal
inger told reporters that quite
likely with the first news con
ference after his inauguration,
Kennedy will conduct some
of his question-and-answer
sessions with reporters before
open microphones and live
TV cameras for instantaneous
transmission to the rest of the
nation.
The White House under
Kennedy will suggest at un
determined intervals that
specific news conferences be
carried on live television, Sal
inger added that all of Ken
nedy's meetings with the press
would be available for in
stantaneous network use i
the broadcasters made prior
requests for permission. Sal
inger did not anticipate, how
ever, that the networks would
want to carry all of the Ken
nedy conferences "live."
The press secretary met
here this week with repre
sentatives of the four major
networks. Although the de
tails remained to be worked
out, Salinger said he found
the networks "very receptive
to this idea."
"They asked me if we would
object to their televising other
press conferences beside those
we put on in the early even
ing hours," Salinger said. "I
told them we would be recep
tive to their televising any
press conference, whether
they were in the early even
ings hours or not."
Asked if this meant the net
works would decide whether
to televise a conference, Sal
inger said this was not en
tirely accurate.
"There will occasionally be
White House press conferences
that we will schedule in the
early evening hours and make
available for live television if
the networks desire to tele
vise them or broadcast them,"
Salinger said. "The other
press conference will be avail
able for television or broad
cast if a prior request is made
to us that the network wishes
to broadcast or televise that
press conference."
Device Helps Those
Partially Blind
Winston-Salem, N.C., (Sci
ence Service) - An indirect
benefit from space research
is a device by which the par
tially or near blind may in
crease their vision by up to
300 per cent.
Dr. William Feinbloom of
New York applied the prin
ciple of alternating pano
ramic fixation used in the
satellite camera and lens sys
tem to a multi-directional
"space lens." Three tiny, tele
scopic lenses in each spectacle
give a total directional field
of 100 degrees.
