Russian representative Gromyko told the United Nations Atomic Energy Commission that a prohibition accord must be in force before a second control convention is concluded or it would be meaningless as merely a paper. He cited his June 39, 1946 proposal to destroy existing atomic bombs within 90 days. Dr. Hsie-Ren Wei asked for guarantees on a control treaty.
