Ancillary experiments desired by the Armed Forces will be undertaken on 2 non-interference basis. The AEC and the three Military Services have each submitted their programs to the Joint Proof Test Committee on which Dr. Graves sits as Scientific Director, program has been referred to appropriate panels, Each committees or individuals for review before tentative inclusion in the over-all program, For example, the Armed Forces Structures Program was thoroughly reviewed by a special panel under the Chairmanship of Dr. C.W. Lampson of Aberdeen Proving Ground, In addition, the Armed Forces Experimental Programs will be reviewed by the Research and Development Board, both from the technical standpoint and the availability of funds. Los Alamos Experimental Program 5, The Los Alamos Experimental Program (Program 1} was presented to the General Advisory Committee on september ee by Dr. Alvin C. Graves, tne Scientific Director. experiments to measure efficiency, functioning, Included are yield and basic weapon in order to confirm theoretical predictions and make possible further definitive weapon design, lines as SANDSTONE. ~ Oo.
