While the President considered his plan as the beginning of a path to disarmament, Bulganin wanted a Soviet-style disarmament plan to come first.

City health officials banned use of Los Angeles' millions of backyard incinerators, except on weekend mornings. If the smog got worse, they planned to shut down all refineries, possibly halt the sale of gasoline, to stop air contamination. But scientists are not sure just how the air is contaminated.
