Wave a WORLD of FUN! lITA Soviets Reject Bermuda Plan On Atom Tests MOSCOW, March 26 (W)—Soviet Russia today gave the brush-off to the Bermuda plan to give ad vance notice on atomic* test ex plosions and to invite internation al observation of the experiments. But Leonid F. Ilyichev, Foreign Ministry pfess chief, stopped short of outright rejection of the pro posal made by President Eisen hower, and British Prime Minister Macmillan. Ilyichev at the same time re- , jetted, in effect, a Japanese note asking that Russia's atomic test explosions be suspended. Without a big power agreement to end tests, he said, the Soviet Union would have to continue perfecting its weapons, including nuclear weapons, in the interest of its own security. Thus Russia and Britain on the same day turned down Japan's protests. Macmillan's government announced in London that it had rejected Tokyo's fourth protest in three weeks, against a series of H-bomb tests.
