ATOMIC TESTS IN SAHARA
N.Z. Government’s View Unchanged (New Zealand Press Association) WELLINGTON, November 12. “New Zealand sincerely hopes that all tests of atomic devices will be discontinued,” said the Acting Prime Minister (Mr Skinner) today when asked to indicate New Zealand's attitude toward the controversy over France’s reported intention to explode an atomic bomb in her Sahara territory. Mr Skinner said that New Zealand’s view of atomic tests had been expounded in the United Nations. It was the belief of the Government that the discontinuance of such tests could only be attained if there were international agreement among the atomic powers.
