FEBRUARY '14. 1957 STEEL TARIFF OVERHAUL COMPLETED Polafo Tariff Ch Be Revealed With Budget LONDON (CPI - The govern- ment announced Wednesday that Britain has almost completed de- velopment of n megaton bomb - apparcntly a hydrogen weapon- nnd that atomic bombs are in steady production. D e f e n c e Minister Duncan Sandys. in making these slate- ments in the House of Commons during a debate on defence poli- cies, used the word ”megaton." a bomb with the power of 1.000.000 tons of TNT. but British officials use the word imu L ” describe a hydrogen bomb. Opposition Labor m em bers. launching an attack on govern- ment d e fe n c e performances. moved a vote of censure against the Conservative government of Prime Minister Macmillan. Sandys also said "there was every reason to believe that the Russians were developing a ver- sion of the German V-2 (rocket! which would carry a nuclear war head." The range of the rockets. San dys said. "would probably be suf- ficient to reach Britain from launching points within Soviet - controlled territory." BOMB DATA EXPECTED His announcement on the hydro- gen bomb had been generally as pectcd as Britain is well advanced on plans for testing such a wee- on in the Christmas sland area of the Pacific sometime after March 1. Sandys said Britain would not sbirk carrying a fair share of the burden of defending Western Eu- roe but added: iw” "...hf'.'.”5.?".f.”.”"1'".i' w at s e, o . e forces whfih we can fdihbb maintain an the "Before making any changes there will be the fullest consul- tation with our partners in NATO 'and the Western European Un- on." CENSURE MOTON Labor member George Brown. Lnmmovlng the vote of censure. an : "We have wasted five and half years. six ministers of defence and E7,500.lXl).000 worth of public money to get less than we ought to have bad if other ministers had been looking after affairs." Brown also demanded an and to military conscription within lht next four years. Sandys replied that the govern- mlnt aims to end conscription "as won an 9,. .. LI ..

Now ”Almosf Completed" tion as it is today." Several leaders in the Labor party have protested against the plan to exlode Britain's first hy- drogen bomb in the Pacific. Japan has asked that the tests be sus pended. Last July Sir Anthony Eden, then prime minister. said Brit- ain's first H-bomb would be tested during the first half of 1957. There has been no official statu- mcnl of the explosive power of the British bombs which soon are TNT to be tested, but unofficial esti mates place them in the three megaton range, or equal to :1.- 000.000 tons of TNT. The last H-bomb dropped by the United States was officially described as having an explosive power ”of several million tons of TNT." For purposes of comparison, the atomic bomb dropped on Hiro- shima ln the Second World Wnr was equivalent to 20.000 tons of NEW YORK (AP)-The second. dock strike in three months held a tight grip Wednesday on U.S. Atlantic parts from Maine to Vir- ginia. Mile upon mile of busy wnt ufwu. subsided to almost ghost- like silence. The international Longshore- men's Association find.) said Its renewed contract strike was 100 per cent effective among its 45,000 dockers. No one disputed the esti- mate. Peace talks were not broken off. But they lacked the optimistic sip of Tuesday's pne-strike negoti- ations. N0 RECORDS BROKEN James F. Finnegan. national di- rector of federal mediation. ro- marked: "Things are rockla along satis- factorily but no records are being broken." The strike got under way with the expiration Tuesday night of an E-day Taft-Hartley injunction that interrupted last November's wat- erfront strike. Latest word from W sbingto was that the government has no present plans to intervene in the strike. as it did in November. Forty-five ships were caught in New York harbor, already perti- ally crippled by a stubborn tug- boat strike. now in its 13th day. Others, inbound. sought strike- free havens elsewhere. Arrangements were made to dock the world's largest liner. the Queen Elizabeth. at Halifax. if need be. and bring her passenger.- into New York by train. Her sister ship. the Queen Mary. docked at Halifax during a previous strike. CARGO SHIPS CBIPPLED some passenger liners continued to arrive here. Not only did they SUPER-BOMB STATEMENT In his reference to Britain's super-bomb. Sandys said: "Furthermore. we have now al- most completed the development of the 'irst British mcgaton bomb. "ln the present state of the world. we cannot believe that any British government would feel it zilgllt to throw away. at this stage. that has been accomplished in this field.

Along with the report will be one dealing with revisions of duties on imports of steel pipe and tubes. All told. about 130 individual steel products are reported to be affected .by recommendations in the two investigations. Negotia- tions with perhaps a dozen coun- tries may be required to unple- mcnt them. Officials predict that many of i the revisions-incorporating both increases and decreases in exist- ing rates-may be in effect by January. 1958. BARGAIN UNDER GATT International bargaining on the proposals is planned for the next meeting of the General Agreemenl next fall. At that time the mem- ber countries will negotiate on ex- tension of current pacts. which ex- pire at the year-end. Canadian officials are continuing direct negotiations with the United States to increase tnri." protection for Canadian po- tato growers. That bargaining also may be completed in time for an- nouncement in the budget. The steel inquiry followed an appeal by Canada's basic-steel in- on Tariffs and Trade at Geneva: meanwhile . May y.

But at supersonic speed they would have to be cooled be- cause of the heat caused by fric- tion between the aircraft and the osphe e. The RCAF had a vast number of physiological and psychological problems to master in supersonic aircraft. However. these problems were being solved with astonishing success. One problem that still had not been solved was how an aircrew could safely bail out of a super- sonic plane. "We haven't yet figured out how to get the men out but this will be solved." he said. The air chief also said the rocket armament of the CF - 100 is comparable to s broadside from an "old-time destroyer."
