OPPOSITION URGED The cable urged Mr. Green, now in Paris for NATO meetings, to express Canadian opposition to French nuclear bomb tests to be held in the Sahara next spring. Goal of the so-called "egghead revolution' is" massive pressure on Ottawa to urge confinement of the atomic bomb and its off- shoots to nations that already its views will be placed before each member of the legislature both by mail and through per- sonal contact, 'The pending revision of the act is being undertaken following the report by a select committee of the legislature which recom- ded 51 a is DOWN 1, Cannonee" 2.
