Russian Nuclear Tests
Sir, —While regretting that testing has started again, I cannot help contrasting the uproar which greeted the latest Russian explosions with the almost complete indifference with which the recent French series was received. Many of your correspondents have apparently been conditioned into believing that the radiations emitted by the unbelievers of the East are more harmful than the sanctified fall-out from tests carried out by Christian countries. As it is not possible to imagine military and industrial leaders destroying their armament toys in cold blood, perhaps they had best have their war and get it over with so that the rest of us can live, or die, in peace.—Yours, etc., COSMOSIAN. September 11, 1961.
