Canadians warn U S on A test and fallout warning
A DC circuit court ordered the government to release secret documents by 4 p.m. EDT, with a 24 hour extension possible if an appeal to the Supreme Court is filed. The court rejected executive privilege claims and criticized President Nixon’s broadest claim of unchallengeable decision making. Canada’s Sharp opposed the blast and urged Trudeau to contact Nixon. Alaska Governor Egan seeks rescue vessels and criticizes delaying Cannikin. Nixon ordered Cannikin to go ahead, detonating a five megaton underground test on Amchitka to test the Spartan ABM warhead for 1976 defense. Environmentalists fear earthquakes, tsunamis, and wildlife harm and pursue federal court action.
