Six Nations Protest

UNITED NATIONS (M - The
United States declared yesterday
that unless a nuclear test ban
treaty is signed it must prepare
to take all steps needed to pro-
tect its security, including tests
in the atmosphere.!
United StatesnAmbassador Ad-
lai E. Stevenson delivered that
warning to the United Nations As-
sembly's main political commit-
tee. He challenged the Soviet Un-
ion to sign a treaty at once.
"I pray we do not lose another
chance to meet this challenge of
qur time and stop this death
dance," he declared.
Just before Stevenson opened,

Stevenson said the United States'

"But until there is a treaty and
tests can be stopped," he added,
"the United States, as a respon-
sible nation, must prepare to take
all steps necessary to protect its
own security and that of the
world community."'
He said that in self-protection
the United States reserves the
right to make preparations to test
in the atmosphere, as well as un-

He declared that the 50-mega-
ton bomb will "poison the at-
mosphere by creating more ra-
dioactivity than that produced by
any series of tests since 1945."
He said the Soviet big bomb

Soviet Union To Explode
Bomb Despite Criicism
UNITED NATIONS (RP)-The Soviet Union declared yesterday it
resumed nuclear weapons tests to strengthen its defenses, and will
continue on that path until the West accepts general and complete
disarmament.
The Soviet position was set forth in advance of full-scale debate
in the United Nations General Assembly's main political committee,
where the United States will advocate a fool-proof treaty to end nu-
clear tests as a major step toward disarmament. Moscow's plan to
test a 50-megaton bomb at the

French Deport Rebels

PARIS (P)-Planeloads of Algerians, many of them nursing band-

started a deportation airlift.
Security forces, reinforced by about 3,000 riot police and gen-
darmes, took stern measures to prevent any new turnouts by Algerian
nationalists. One rebel chieftain in Nanterre, scene of a bloody clash

S. K. Tsarapkin, the Soviet Un-
ion's chief negotiator at the Gene-
va test ban talks that ended in a
deadldck almost 16 months ago,
spoke in the Assembly's special
political committee.
The committee is debating the
need for a speedup in informa-
tion from experts on dangers to
mankind 'due to radioactive fall-
out from nuclear weapons tests.
Tsarapkin said a militarily
strong Soviet Union provided the
best guaranteefor preventing the
world from being plunged into the
horror of nuclear war.
"That is what the Soviet Union
is trying to. prevent by strength-
ening its defenses," he asserted.
"We will have to continue to do
this until the Western powers will
have understood that it is neces-
sary to embark upon general and
complete disarmament."
He said that when agreement
is reached on general and com-
plete disarmament "there will no
longer be any need to test nuclear
weapons."
He demanded that the com-
mittee end its debate and leave
discussion of ending tests to future
disarmament negotiators.
