I therefore request you, first, to inform the Government of the United Kingdom, the United States, and the Soviet Union that Now Zealand regards in particular the health and well-being of the Pacific Islanders as more important than the testing out of mass-extermination weapons and therefore requests them t, stop further tests at Christmas Island, Bikini, and in Siberia; second, to instruct New Zealand's representative on the UnftH Nations to move that that body first, approve the world banning of further nuclear tests and the conversion of existing stockpiles rt nuclear weapons into "atoms for peace"; second, welcome th, Soviet Union's declaration of readiness to stop further tests if the West agrees to stop theirs; and third, set up a special worif committee of democratic and Communist atom experts to devil, a scientific, just and human way to carry the banning out efien. tively, the meetings of the committee being open to the of the world.
