State Department, the Atomic Energy Commission and the National Science Foundation, as the first from the USSR to take part in a scientific meeting in this country Their presence at the sessions, the most important annual gathering in the nuclear energy field, attended in record numbers (more than 200) by the foremost theoretical and experimental physi cists in the United States and eighteen foreign nations, marked an epochal advance in the efforts of world scientists to pro mote a free flow of scientific information between all nations. All of the conference discussions dealt with non-secret re search. In the words of U. S. Senator Clinton P. Anderson, chair man of the Joint Congressional Committee on Atomic Energy who addressed the conferees at the final banquet, "the im portance of international meetings of the kind held here in Rochester cannot be over-emphasized. Information exchanged between participants will hasten the day when science will understand the secrets of the nucleus and of fundamental" particles and move man another step in his understanding of the universe about him ... and promote a degree of mu tual trust and understanding that might in the end help to halt the race for atomic arms and forestall a war that nobody wants.... As many of you have been saying again and again, science cannot flourish under. secrecy ... ,'We need to encourage by whatever means we can, the spirit of international cooperation and openness· which will minimize the chances of a misunderstanding-an accidental spark that would lead to disaster." enator Anderson, in his major policy speech, made three For five straight days, the 200 conferees from the U.
