Secretary of State Rusk has told Congress he would not be surprised if Communist China exploded an atomic weapon at any time after the next two years. He would be surprised, he said, "if they were to explode an atomic weapon within one year." Rusk was asked for his estimates on China's nuclear progress during recent closed-door hearings of the House Foreign Affairs Committee.

A heavily censored transcript of his testimony was made public today.

The Atomic Energy Commission said the device had an explosive force of one to several megatons, probably equal to the power of one million to five million tons of TNT. The previous two shots were believed to be in the range. Like the two earlier shots, today's device was dropped from a plane near Christmas Island. Want More Punch All tests to-date appear to have involved attempts to pack more punch into intercontinental missile warheads. The higher power of the latest device indicated that it might have been an actual warhead.

They could range up to 10 nie-ratons. President Kennedy had announced in advance that one aim of the series would be to pet more nuclear yield per pound of weapon for missile warheads. In doing this, the task force will detonate nuclear warheads for all kinds of intercontinental missiles, a3 well as the submarine-fired Polaris. Will Move to Johnston High altitude tests will be held in June and July at Johnston Island. Sen.

Clinton P. Anderson (D-N. former chairman of the House-Senate Atomic Energy Committee, said today that the high altitude tests are concerned with defenses against enemy mis siles. Dispute Reported On Test Ban Aims Washington, May 2 (AP). A controversy was reported today within the Kennedy Administra tion over what steps the U.

S. should take to halt nuclear weap ons testing when the current Pacific series is completed. Some officials were advocating mat the u. s. enter a new mora' torium on atmospheric tests, which would mean a reversal of present policy.

Others insisted that secur ity requires a complete test ban under a strong international in spection system to prevent sneak tests or secret preparations for tests. The final decision may hinge DAILY ALMANAC sisted the field is still wide open. However, the impresison prevailed that the Mayor, who says he does not choose to run himself, went there to sell the Presi- dent on this ticket: Council President Paul Screvane for governor and UN Undersecretary General Ealph Bunche for U. S. Senator.

Reports from Washington had the Mayor submitting the names of three gubernatorial possibilities: Screvane, Deputy Mayor Edward F. Cavanagh Jr. and former Postmaster General James A. Farley. The Senatorial possibilities were said to be Bunche and Edward R.

Murrow, director of the UJS. Information Agency. Screvane With Mayor Screvane, who was the Mayor's golfing partner at Atlantic City, insisted, with tongue in cheek, that he knew nothing more than what he read in the newspapers. But he did not declare himself out if the newspapers reports should turn out to be true. Bunche didn't say yes he didn't say no.

He said he had not been approached by anyone in official position "on this subject." He said he had no political ambitions and "in my 16 years of service in the secretariat 1 have scrupulously avoided all partisan political activity."

in part on a study of results obtained during the current tests. Some State Department and White House officials were reported worried that the developing dispute may impair the U.S. bargaining position in the disarmament conference at Geneva. As a result, a reassertion of President Kennedy's basic policy on nuclear testing was being considered. See Difference in Stands Dr.

Jerome B. Wiesner, the President's science adviser, was reported spearheading the advocacy of a new ban or moratorium after the present tests are concluded. U.S. Ambassador Arthur H. Dean, chief negotiator in Geneva, on the other hand, was said to believe a full scale test ban treaty may be possible when the current round of testing is over.

This means not only the current U.S. series, but an expected new series by Russia. Japan Unhappy On Reply of US. Tokyo, May 2 (AP). Foreign Minister Zentaro Kosaka said today "we are very dissatisfied" with the U.S.

She usually kept most of these gems, trace-lets and necklaces in a safe deposit box, but had left them in a dresser drawer in her bedroom. She Was at Work Mrs. Friedman, 55, was at work as a secretary at the Imperial Handle Lock Co, 1515 Hart Place, Brooklyn. Her two sons were at school Robert, 18, at Brooklyn College, and Barry, 20, at Adelphi College. Her maid, Mrs.

Essie Smith, 48, of 1894 Fulton answered the doorbell and informed the nattily attired caller that no one was home. That was all he wanted to know. He barged in. Mrs. Smith said he pressed an object, presumably a gun, against her.

Cuffed to Railing Whipping out a pair of handcuffs, the bandit led the maid to the second floor and cu5ed her to the railing.
