Image description

Members of a Japanese Self-Defence Force's chemical unit in Hitachinaka October 1 prepare to enter action Tokaimura October 1. A chain reaction triggered by Japan's worst-ever nuclear accident had apparently halted by Friday morning, giving officials hope that the corner had been turned in dealing with the crisis. The accident is believed to have started when a worker piled too much uranium into a container, with the result that it reached "critical mass" and started a nuclear reaction. KM/PB
