TEST BAN PROPOSALS
U.S. Still Hopes For Results
(N.Z.P. A.-Reuter—Copyright) WASHINGTON, Aug. 10
The State Department said today it did not consider the Soviet rejection yesterday of new United States proposals for a nuclear test ban treaty as "the final refusal” by’ the Russians.
The departments spokesman. Mr Lincoln White, told his press conference: “Our full presentation has not yet been made in plenary session."
The United States delegate to the Geneva talks (Mr Arthur Dean) would present the United States position fully at a plenary meeting next week. Mr Dean is expected to give details of reductions in inspection and control provisions which the United States would be willing to accept in the light of new scientific information on the detection and identification of underground nuclear explosions.
Mr White sa-id that Mr Zorin's remarks in the threepower sub-committee on nuclear testing yesterday appeared to have been “an ad hoc statement rather than a definite ‘nyet’ by the Soviet Union.”
