U.S. and British leaders were under no illusion that their words would cause the Krem- lin to do an about-face in its stiff opposition to international controls, which the Western powers say are needed to make a test ban workable. But they were known to feel that the Western case for re- suming tests should carry with it as much support as possible in world opinion. The Western case sums up this way: The Soviet Union broke an atomic test moratorium that had been in existence since 1958 with a series of more than 40 nuclear explosions last fall. Un- less the Soviets agree to a test ban with adequate safeguards against cheating, the West must resume its nuclear testing for its own security. Kennedy has ordered U.S. at- mospheric blasts resumed un- less the Soviet Union comes to terms on a treaty acceptable to the United States and Britain. 2 More Welsh é Women Dead From Smallpox CARDIFF, Wales (Reuters)-- Two more women died from smallpox today, bringing to four the number of dead in the sec- ond outbreak of the disease in South Wales this year. | Another eight persons with |confirmed cases are in isolation and three were said to be "se- riously ill." All the cases in the latest out- break have been elderly women from the same ward in a men- tal hospital at Bridgend, near Cardiff. But the threat of a possible outbreak in the English Mid- lands developed today when a Pakistani was admitted to a hospital there with suspected smallpox. The last Welsh outbreak killed six persons. It followed an ear- lier scare--extending from Lon- don through the Midlands to the industrial north--in which seven died. t It was understood that the foot steel highway bridge was carried hundreds of yards down- stream and a railway bridge was battered so badly the CNR detoured its trains through northern Nova Scotia.
