TWELVE THE BRIDGEPORT POST, FRIDAY, MAY 13, 1960. ADLAI BRANDS SPY I U. S. BLUNDER CHICAGO, May 13-- (AP) Although branding the spy incident a blunder by the Eisenhower administration, Adlai 12. Stevenson has declared lhat this is no time for partisan censure.

"This summit meeting is too fateful for any American to risk making the President's task even more difficult," he said last night. Stevenson, who urged Americans to pray for the success cl the President's mission to Paris next week, said the downing of a U-2 plane over Russia has caused "a drop in America's, reputation around the world." "The temperature has falL. sharply at (he summit," he consider all Ibis hush-hush system--like ours--stumbles and feels its way. We must not hypnotize ourselves with the inylhol infallibility." Stevenson needled the economic aspects of Eisenhower foreign policy as well as the security side and said "I think we find the same uncertainty of goals betraying itself in hesitations and inadequacies of performance." DODD DISCUSSES NEUTRON BOMB WASHINGTON, May 13--Senator Thomas J. Dodd (D-Conn) yesterday charged "abuse of secrecy" in connection with a neutron bomb, which he said would emit a kind of death ray.

Stevenson, defeated Democratic presidential candidate in 1952 and 1956, spoke before a session of the Conference of World Tension at the University of Chicago. Delegates from over the world are meeting there to discuss ways of casing world tension. Backs President While backing the President r.n the necessity for gathering intelligence--that was the mission of the plane downed May 1--Stevenson said: "But our liming, our words, our management must arid will be sharply questioned "In short, our government blundered and admitted it.

Steven son said, Khrushchev's hal surrounds (he neutron bomb be a glaring instance of thc official abuse of secrecy," Dodd said. "To keep the of life on thi luclear age from the American people is foolish, and potentially dangerous." An Army specialist on nuclear said a neutron bomb -s possible in theory. The Alomic Energy commission declinec comment, Dodd raised the question of a neutron bomb in a speech declar ing the fate of the free world may liinge on early resumption of nuclear testing by lhe Unitei Stales.
