They recommended a series of American initiatives in a 5000-word mimeographed statement released Saturday. The group, which included Erich , Harold Taylor, Norman Thomas A. Jack, met March 24 to analyze the first weeks of the Geneva disarmament conference. Their statement asserted that "a reasonable compromise can still be achieved to secure a test-ban treaty." But if no agreement is reached by mid-April, the statement continued, "President Kennedy should still be persuaded to reconsider this conditional directive to resume tests in the atmosphere." The felt any new American tests should be made more for political-psychological reasons than for military . "Simply Not True"
The ten signers of the statement cited of the "non-credibility" of America's disarmament efforts. They maintained that "a powerful part of America that does not want disarmament to rationalize its opposition to disarmament in terms of Russian bad faith," and asserted that "it is simply not true that the U.S. has always been right on disarmament and the Russians have always been wrong." The group recommended such "limited disarmament steps" as disengagement in central Europe, a halt to the rearmament of West Germany, and limiting the club to its present membership. if no progress is made at Geneva, group said, the U.S. should take steps "which may in time by the Russians and other nations." copies of the statement are available from the SANE headquarters in New York.
