j Ike Offers Soviet
Premier Plan To
Ban Atomic Tests
By MARVIN L. ARROWSMITH
AUGUSTA, Ga., UP — President
Eisenhower has put directly up to
Soviet Premier Khrushchev a pro
posal to ban nuclear weapons tests
which dangerously pollute the
atmosphere.
A first-stage agreement to out
| law tests below 30 miles in the
I atmosphere, Eisenhower wrote
Khrushchev, could ease the dead
lock among negotiations now seek
ing a way to halt all weapons
testing.
British Prime Minister Mac
[ Millan made a similar suggestion
[ in a separate letter to Khrushchev.
| London sources said MacMillan
j told Khrushchev that Britain
| would favor a broader prohibition
but in the alternative \yould sup
port an agreement to ban low al
titude tests.
Presidential Press Secretary
James C. Hagerty said Khrushchev
had not replied to the Eisenhower
letter yesterday. It was made pub
lic Monday night only after a So
viet official had talked about it,
apparently by accident, in Gene
va, where East-West talks have
been blocked since October,
The letter was sent to Khrush
chev on April 13 — the same day
U. S. negotiators outlined the new
U. S. proposal in Geneva. Eisen
hower said in effect that a par
tial agreement would be better
than none, and “these negotiations
must not be permitted completely
to fail.”
He said a simplified control sys
tem to detect any test explosions
in the atmosphere could easily be
developed from expert recommen
dations already at hand.
Test explosions in the atmos
phere cause more radioactive fall
out than those conducted under
ground or in outer space — two
types which would not be banned
now under the newest U. S. pro
posal.
It is always well to look before
you leap, especially if you are
jumping at conclusions.

Discoverer II Delayed
Downfall Expected Daily
WASHINGTON, iffi — The sat
ellite Discoyerer II now is ex
pected to spiral down to its death
in the earth’s atmosphere late Sat
urday night or early Sunday. It
has been in orbit since April 13.
This is the moonlet that made
history by successfully ejecting a
capsule that fell safely back to
earth, scientists say, somewhere
near the Norwegian island of
Spitzbergen.
The capsule has not been re
covered, but radio data from the
satellite indicated the capsule ex
periment was a success — the
first time anything has come back
intact after orbiting the earth. *
Discoverer II, fired on a Polar
route from Vandenberg Air Force
Base, Calif., at first was expected
to stay up a month. Later fore
casts had it falling early this
week. Tuesday night, however, the
Defense Department said new cal
culations showed it would plunge
into the atmosphere and burn up
this weekend.
