Kennedy said he and Prime Minister Macmillan would immediately meet with Premier Khrushchev at Geneva to sign the treaty. Soviet detonation of more than 40 bombs last fall didn't give Russia any nuclear superiority, Kennedy said, but they did re- flect "highly sophisticated technology" and "'some substan- tial gaivsin weaponry."' "Were we to stand still while the Soviets surpassed us -- or even appeared to surpass us-- the free world's ability to deter, to survive and to respond to an all-out attack would be seri- ously weakened." Kennedy denied air tests would be 2 war provocation. On the contrary, it was his hope that peace prospects would be strengthened by this decision-- "once the Soviet leaders realize that the West will no longer, stand still, negotiating in good a KENNEDY ANNOUNCI RUSS CRY BLACKMAIL AT U.S. BOMB TESTS _ Western Allies Back Decision NG TEST RESUMPTION faith, while they reject inspec- tion and are free to prepare! further tests." Masked Bandits | Rob Ottawa Club | OTTAWA (CP) -- Three| -- Canadian Shows 'For PM Viewing LONDON (CP)--Russia today accused President Kennedy. of using "manoeuvres strongly re- miniscent of blackmail" in offer- ing to call off plans for resumed atmospheric nuclear tests if Russia signs a test ban treaty within the next two months. The accusation was made in a statement by the official Soviet news agency Tass which said the president's offer Friday night to call off planned tests over the Pacific was "a clumsy attempt to justify himself before) the world." In Japan, the only country against which atomic bombs have been used, the foreign min- istry issued the text of a letter from Premier Hayato Ikeda ur- ging President Kennedy to "'re- consider your present decision to resume testing." Kennedy's announcement set off a small demonstration by leftist students in front of t® |U.S. Embassy in Tokyo.

In the West, meantime, Brit- ain and France, which were consulted in advance of the American decision, formally an- nounced support. In Ottawa, Commons Speaker Roland Michener said the Ca- nadian members of the Canada- U.S. interparliamentary group, which ended a two-day meeting Friday, fully supported the U.S. view that atmospheric tests have become vital from the scientific and military point of view, Canada's official position has been to oppose all nuclear testing.
