Three new names were proposed yesterday for the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, including two that do away with the word "Soviet."
In a parliamentary debate on the union treaty that is being drawn up between the Kremlin and the 15 Soviet republics, these names were proposed: the Union of Sovereign Socialist States; the Union of Soviet Sovereign Republics, and the Union of Euro-Asian Republics.

Senate ratifies 2 treaties that limit nuclear testing
The Associated Press
WASHINGTON The Senate yesterday approved a plan to Scolar nuclear testing treaties under the depth limit.
Consent to ratification of the 1974 Threshold Test Ban Treaty and the 1976 Peaceful Nuclear Explosives Program.
The treaties, which limit underground explosions to 150 kilotons or less, were drafted during the Nixon and Ford administrations but were held up by other actions about whether they could adequately be verified.
But the verification procedures, which provide for on-site inspection teams fielded by both sides, may become important precedents for more ambitious treaties to come, supporters said.
The treaties, intended as a first step toward slowing the race to develop ever larger nuclear bombs, are being used for purposes not clear.
Those doubts were largely erased by a new set of verification rules agreed to by Bush and Soviet President Mihailk Gorbachev on June 1 during their Washington summit meeting. The verification rules, in many ways, are more important than the testing limits imposed by the treaty.
The treaties lag far behind current arms control reality, which contemplates massive reductions in the U.S. and Soviet nuclear arsenals and sharp cuts in conventional forces.
The Carter administration wanted a comprehensive test ban rather than a limitation. The Reagan administration held them up because it believed the United States would be unable to verify Soviet compliance, and charged that Moscow had violated the ceiling on at least two dozen occasions.
The TTBT put a ceiling of 150 kilotons on the size of weapons tests and provides detailed procedures to ensure that the other side can accurately measure yields.
The PNET places identical limits on nuclear blasts for peaceful purposes, such as seismic exploration or excavation. The United States has not publicly released any data from 1973, and the Soviets ceased such blasts in 1988.
The Bush administration vigorously opposes suspending China's 10-year-old status as a most-favored-nation trading partner, which effectively curbs the tariffs on Chinese imports by 90 percent.
