Great Britain Accuses Russians Of 'Stampeding' UN on H-Tests; Ike Urges Stronger GOP Fight

UNITED NATIONS, N.Y., Oct. 14--Britain today accused the Soviet Union of confronting the U.N. with an ultimatum by threatening to go ahead with nuclear weapons tests unless the Western powers agree to Soviet proposals.

Soviet Deputy Foreign Minister Valerian A. Zorin immediately denied the ultimatum charge. He called on the U.N. to approve a Soviet-proposed recommendation that the Big Three suspend tests immediately and unconditionally for all time.

The United States and Britain have announced they will suspend tests for a year beginning Oct. 31, provided the Russians do the same.

He said that his administration had given the country "sane, sound, logical government as opposed to radical government."
