...making. Four Russian missile tracking ships were spotted on picket duty in the Pacific, deployed in a vast diamond pattern that has been observed only once before-when Khrushchev was on his way to the U.N. But in Moscow, the scientific secretary of the Academy of Sciences, Yevgeny Fedorov, solemnly warned last week: "Much time is still needed to ensure complete safety for man in space flight...
...detection of a single underground test explosion-the Rainier shot in September 1957-but had pulled up short after the Hardtack shots in Nevada in October 1958 could not be distinguished from small earthquakes. The Russian scientists had agreed to consider the evidence. Instead, the U.S.S.R.'s Evgeny Fedorov charged in the Geneva report that it was "the brink of absurdity." Fedorov went on to charge the Western scientists with deliberate "misrepresentation . . . manipulation ... a tendentious use of one-sidedly developed material for the purpose of undermining confidence."

Together the President and the committee drew up the toughest diplomatic statement to appear since Khrushchev's visit...
...James B. Fisk, executive vice president of Bell Telephone Laboratories, announced that the U.S. would show up anyway, the Communists decided to let their scientists go too.

After seven weeks' discussion, the scientists had settled on the value of four main methods of nuclear detection...
...Fisk, the lean and deliberate executive vice president of Bell Telephone Laboratories: "We embark, with every hope, on what can well be a historic mission-to lay the essential technical basis for the important decisions which lie ahead." To the Western scientists' surprise, Chief Soviet Delegate Yevgeny K. Fedorov, identified as a Soviet Sputnik specialist, spoke in the same vein. "It is not for us to decide the cessation of tests," he said. "This is up to the governments...
