Atomic Tests Due In Spring
The next atomic tests may occur at the American proving grounds in the Central Pacific this spring. Factors include favorable Marshall Islands weather and Atomic Energy Commission Chairman Gordon Dean noting some tests are advancing. Eniwetok is cited as a natural permanent testing ground. The Nevada tests near Las Vegas concluded February 6 with five detonations, though perceived as not full-scale given distant shocks and lights.
