ANOTHER UNIDENTIFIED MAN SAYS THAT HIS THEORY HAS ALWAYS BEEN THAT IT IS BETTER TO EXERT PSYCHOLOGICAL INFLUENCE THAN TO SHOOT.

Minoborony subsequently draftZ and approved a whole plan of design, technical and.training mea- sures aimed at making nuclear submarines safer to operate, repair and maintain. In particular, this plan forbade repair work to be done on submarines while they were afloat, and it called for special reactor- rechargin zones to be created at mainten- ance faciyities. No such zone was created at the Shkotovo-22 plant, however, owing to insufficient funds, Citizens of Shkotovo-22 are said to be concerned over lingering radioactivity in the area of the plant. There have been calls for more thorough monitoring of local radiation conditions, more careful medical monitoring ofgersons who were exposed to radiation, st cter measures to prevent the spread of radiocontamination from the fall- out zone and waste burial placds, and allo- cations for financing such undertakings. Radioactivity reportedly has spread already to nearby Konyushkovo Say and also to Abrek and Razboynik bays. The author mentions that specialists of the Taiga Geological Association in Khabarovsk recently conduct- .d a detailed Inde endent radiological ex- amination of the pTt and the settlement, and results of this survey are now being )rocessed.

Some scientists are said to be- lieve that 'pqchotronic generators' based on new physical principles can be used for remote control of people's minds and behav- ior, and that original weapons for this purpose can be developed on the basis of generators of spinor (torsion")" or "micro- lepton" fields, In particular. other sci- entists are highly skeptical of such re- search. It is recalled that a resolution enti- tled "On the Unsound Practice of Financing Psoudoscientific Research out of Stat6 Sources" was published together with an opinion submitted by t;e USSR Academy of Sciences' department of general physics and astronomy, on July 4 of this yeaN The USSR Supreme Soviet's Committee on Science and Technologies issued this resolution. It accused several ministries of sTending, without a proper expert review, ha f a bil- lion rubles on pseudoscientific and anti- scientifid developments involving spinor or microlepton fields with which scientists are already familiar. The resolution named the USSR Ministry of Defense (Minoborony), the USSR Ministry of Nuclear Power Engi- neering and Industry, the USSR State Secur- ity Committee (KGB) and the USSR Cabinet of Ministers' Military-Industrial Commission as clients and sponsors of this work.

He was told that the committee had eceived no information in this regard from inoborony, the KOB or other agencies in- olved. Representatives of the General taff referred the author to the USSR Acad- my of Sciences' Section on Problems of Ap- lied Science. Nikolay Prudnikov, deputy hairman of this section, said that It ometimes orders projects to be carried out ~r the General Staff, but he disclosed no etails of this work. one such( groject, : ~Ich was called "Obezlichiyell e-indivi 'd- Oization), is mentioned. It is recalled ut In 1966, a scientific research Insti- ite informed the academy's section that 1e institute was prepared to carry out nis project. An associate of the section ho knew more*about the project was not vallable for questioning, however. At the tent" center, the author was told that di- !ctor Akimov was away on a business trip.- Ye. Aleksandrov, corresponding member F the USSR Academy of Sciences and a sci- itific opponent of Akimov's, sent the au- ior a report'of the Center for Unconven- .onal Techno 'logies. According to this document, the center is engaged in research of long-distance production of medical-blo- logical and psychophysical effects on troops and the population, usin torsion radiations; and also in researcg of medi- cal-biological protection of troops and the population against effects of such radia- tions. Aleksandrov expressed doubt that equipment capable of producing such effects can be developed. A etter which the edi- tors received from Aleksandrov is quoted, in which the'scientist denounced research of unconventional fields as pseudosclen- tific, citing a decision of the academy's department of general physics and astrono- my. Aleksandrov went so far as to accuse state enterprises of producing fake "field generators" and selling them to defense agencies for large sums. Scientists who hold opposing views of unconventional-fields research reportedly include V.

"Pro- yektstroynauka" is characterized as a high- potential organization which is launching production on the basis of its own scien- tific developments. This association, which has an annual turnover of millions of rubles, takes in several joint-stock compa- nies and small enterprises. A conversation is recorded with Colo- nel of-the Reserves Dmitriy Arkadyevich Frumin, a former military construction spe- cialist and now head of the "Proyektstroy- nauka" association. Frumin and colonels of the reserves V. Kostin, A. Sytnik and N. Marichev are among a number of engineers who acquired unique experience in construc- tion of fortifications, missile silos and structures of space-launch complexes while serving in the armed forces, the author relates. For example, concrete capable of withstanding a direct hit by a missile with a nuclear warhead was developed, using high-quality cement and scarce superplasti- cizers. Frumin recalled that while carry- ing out a contract assignment at Kapustin Yar in 1962, he and his associates achieved waterproofness of concrete which was two to three times as high as usual. Experience of former military specialists reportedly has been utilized in Wilding underground structures for civil defense and watertight structures for underground services, in particular. A new process which makes sealing of joints unnecessary, permanent forms which function simultaneously as fac- ing and wet sealing, concrete ten times as waterproof as conventional concrete, and other materials with special properties have been developed in this connection. Frumin showed the author of the arti- cle slabs of siligran, a concrete which is not only comparatively inexpensive but said to be capable of withstanding stresses as great as those for whith missile silos are designed. Siligran is considered a possi- ble safe substitute for asbestos cement whose use is forbidden in many countries. Other potentially profitable developments of "Proyektstroynauka" include unique pro- cesses for producing building materials, and equipment for these processes. The association reportedly has concluded 20 agreements for creation of joint enter- prises and facilities, including a Soviet- Bulgarian enterprise, for production of finished products.

This effect consists essen- tially of excitation, in cerebral fluid, of acoustic vibrations which reach auditory nerves. These vibrations are excited by pulsed microwave radiation. Shchelkunov did not attempt to carry out his discovery in practice, but he considers it quite fea- sible from the technical standpoint. In a scrapbook which I leafed through, there was a short clipping which read: "I, Ivan Sergeyevich Kachalin, and (the name of another inventor followed) made a discov- ery, 'A Method of Inducing Artificial Sleep at a Distance .by,Means of Radio Waves,' in the Soviet Union.~,_*- General-Colonel of Avi- ation Vladimir Nikitovich Abramov. rendered practical assistance in formalizing this discovery.

In 1973, the first 'Radioson' (radiosleep) unit was developed at military unit 71592 of the city of Novosibirsk and preliminary trials were conducted ...... This report bears the seal of an aca- demic institute and signatures, including those of academician Yu. Kobzarev and Doc- tor of Sciences E. Godik. And, by the way, the block diagram of the "Radioson" unit. includes the same microwave generator whose pulses, according to G. Shchelkunov, can also evoke acoustic vibrations in the brain. We were able to meet with a second in- ventor. Ivan Antonovich (he requested that his last name not be used), an associate of an institute of the USSR Academy of Scienc- es, said: "Yes, we have developed the 'Radioson' unit and have conducted not just one, but several successful tests both on ourselves and on volunteer soldiers. But prolonged correspondence with the Committee on Inven- tions and Discoveries didn't produce any results. They deferred consideration of our claim, which was registered as early as 1974, under a totally unconvincing pre- text." "Perhaps, because such devices already existed?" "No, at that time, this was out of the question. We gave some reports at various institutes, including IRE in 1982.
