THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 2. 1961 U.S. May Run Test On N-Bomb Theory WASHINGTON f/P) The first tentative experiments to try out the theory of a neutron bomb, to kill men' but leave everything else untouched, may. be made in Nevada under ground test caverns. When preliminary fie l d re search might start or whether it had begun was a tightly held of ficial government secret yester day. - Various papers and comments by nongovernmental and former government experts during the past several years have suggest ed that such neutrons could pen etrate steel armour arid even sev eral feet of concrete. Soviet nu clear physicists have speculated similarly. Officials from the White House on declined to com ment on reports published by the New York Daily News and the New York Journal-Ameri can that the neutron bomb pro ject has high priority in the current U.S. tests. Sen. Thomas J. Dodd, (D-Conn.), urging resumption of tests in the atmosphere, said this country must press "every possible effort West Berlin• Police Check Rectfopers BERLIN (AP)—West Berlin pd.- lice yesterday began demanding identity papers of Wiiet civilians' driving from Red-ruled East Ber lin—just as East Gerthan police demand identification from Amer ican civilians. It suits the Comniunists to rec ognize West Berlin_ police. They feel this is another step to con verting West Berlin into a "free city"—run by West Berliners and rid of occupation authorities. The U.S. government, on the other hand, has objected strongly to its civilian officials showing any identification to the East Ger man police—the "Vopos." .The reason is that the United States does not recognize the East Ger man satellite regime and insists that the Soviet Union accept re sponsibility in East Berlin as an occupying power. Despite the West Berlin police checks, however, an American spokesman insisted there was -no agreement that would change bor der-crossing procedure for A meri cans. $1.00...

Saying the work on the project had gone as far as it could go without testing when the mora torium on tests began in late 1958, Dodd' said in. a statement: "The neutron bomb would not only be a far more effective battlefield weapon than any now available to us. Inn statement issued in Prov idence, R.I. Sen. John 0. Pas tore, (D-111.), said the United States should explore develop meat of the neutron bomb and an antimissile missile. He said both operations would require , tests in the atmosphere. Without making any mention of the N-Bomb, Sens. Clinton P. An derson, (D-N.M.), and John G. Tower, (R-Tex.), also called for re sumption by the United States of atmospheric tests. The testing and potential use of , N-bombs would be within U.S.; international policy because at mospheric contamination from the , tests would not occur or be at very low level; If eventually the ; weapon were used in combat, its "selectivity" would be of high order—it could be applied against enemy forces on a battlefield with olit menacing nearby civilian pop ulations.
