Swedish scientists eslmalerl it ,

in be in the 40-mcgaton range, second only to the Soviet 50- megaton blast set off last fall.

A Norwegian scientist said his instruments showed only that it was smaller than that one and United States officials woul say only that it was "in the megaton range."

The Japanese meteorological agency estimated the blast to be in the 20-megaton range.

Whatever the size. the blast carried out Premier Khrush- ehev's threat to resume testing in netsliation for U.S. Pacific tests.

Uppsala University's scismo- logical institute. which classed the blast as in the range of 40.- 000,000 tons of TNT. said it oc- curred at a higher altitude than the soviet series of 961.

Recordings at the institute in- dicated the test was carried out at the Soviet atomic testing ground on the island of-Novaya Zemlyii. in Siberia about 1.350 miles east of Uppsals.
