A Senate panel heard that a softball sized plutonium cache could yield a nuclear bomb small enough for car transport yet deadly enough to kill tens of thousands. Dr. Theodore B. Taylor urged tighter safeguards as U S nuclear power grows. Dr Ralph Lapp challenged some figures. The testimony accompanied a bill to reorganize the Atomic Energy Commission into a new Energy Research and Development Administration.
