7» Admittedly such information cannot be furnished for specific or restricted ranges of yields without some indication of atockpile composition, Providing effects information for ylelds of 1 KT up to 100 megatons does cover the range of yields of most likely effects scockpile interest and does not reveal any useful information, 8, Since the information proposed by the DOD for declasstification ineludes effects information extrapolated for ydelds up to 100 MT, concurrence by the AEC in the DOD Proposal would meke available effects information in a range of yields which would cover ths most likely current and near future capabilities of any potential enemy based on the technology known to the United States, 9, The limiting of effects information to yields of 100 MT is an arbitrary selection and similar information could be «=. ‘2 ecmputed for yields to 1,000 MT or higher, However, present indications are that such weapons could not be delivered by air, the method which is of most concern to planners of industrial dispersion. 10, It therefore appears reasonable to include in the revision of "The Effects of Atomic Weapons" effects information for ylelds up to 100 MT, - 7 - Appendix "A" fed wen bis
