A TREATY TO BAN NUCLEAR TESTING WORLDWIDE...PUT FORTH BY PRESIDENT CLINTON...APPEARED DOOMED TUESDAY AFTERNOON AS REPUBLICAN OPPOSITION TOUGHENED...AND DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP CONCEDED THERE WERE NOT ENOUGH VOTES TO RATIFY THE INITIATIVE. REPUBLICANS WANTED MORE TIME TO DISCUSS THE ISSUE. THE COMPREHENSIVE NUCLEAR TEST BAN TREATY HAS BEEN SIGNED BY ONE HUNDRED 54 NATIONS BUT RATIFIED BY ONLY TWO OF THE SEVEN ACKNOWLEDGED NUCLEAR POWERS, BRITAIN AND FRANCE. LEADING REPUBLICANS...INCLUDING GOP PRESIDENTIAL GEORGE W. BUSH...SAY THE TREATY IS NOT VERIFIABLE AND WOULD NOT STOP THE NUCLEAR AMBITIONS OF NORTH KOREA AND IRAN. THEY ALSO ARGUE THE BAN WOULD HARM EFFORTS TO MAINTAIN THE SAFETY OAND RELIABILITY OF THE U.S. NUCLEAR ARSENAL. THE UNITED STATES STOPPED TESTING IN 1992 AND HAS NO INTENTION OF RESUMING SAYS CLINTON.SUNRISE

The remains of Jumbo at the Trinity Test Site in New Mexico, USA. This massive steel container was designed to contain the plutonium in the event of failure during the world's first atomic test in 1945. Originally weighing in at over 200 tons with walls 35 centimeters thick and enclosed by two end caps, Jumbo was never used for its intended purpose. The damage to the 7-meter long container and missing end caps evident here were caused by conventional explosive testing in 1946 which was unrelated to the nuclear program.

This raw footage apparently dates to August 6, 1971, when a Hiroshima Day anti-Vietnam War protest occurred in New York City. At 2:31 you will see the Manhattan District Office of the Internal Revenue Service. This was the site of an extensive line of picketers, many carrying signs denouncing the use of tax money to support the ongoing war in Vietnam. At 2:50, a participant is interviewed regarding his refusal to pay taxes, and there is a brief discussion of the meaning of Nagasaki Day to the peace movement. At 3:20 another news segment begins featuring the U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations discussing a crisis in East Pakistan. <p><p>The Hiroshima Day marches took place on the anniversary of the Hiroshima bombing on August 6, 1945. The first of these took place in 1958 and featured a tribute to a visiting “Hiroshima Maiden” (a woman who survived the Hiroshima bombing) Shigeko Nimoto and a march from Bryant Park to the UN. Starting in 1965, the Hiroshima Day marches—and the peace and antinuclear movements as a whole—began to focus more on the war in Vietnam. The slogan of the 1965 march, at 7th Ave. and 38th St., was “We must end the war in Vietnam before it becomes a world-wide nuclear conflict.”
