off and the deadly things started
their crazy dive that you really
got the wind up.
" The rocket bombs were dif
ferent. They traveled faster than
the speed of sound. The first
thing you knew about them was
when they HIT, If you had been
listening for it (which, you
wiene't; having plenty else to
think about by then) you could
have heard the sound of their
approach CATCHING UP with
them arter they struck.
ONE hit over In the City of Lore
don, close by the Thames.
It hit a modern concrete and steel
building used as a wholesale food
market and went through the
'."roof and the upper floors' and
then pierced the yard -stick,

penetrated Into an underground
railroad station below, buried it
self In the floor of that and ex
ploded. - All that is left of the building
is a hole, gaping and ragged,
through which you look down
Into the Underground tube. A
total of 137 people were killed,
not cleanly, decently killed but
blown into bloody shreds that
spattered the splintered walls.
It was a incut market, along with
the rest, and contained a huge
supply of horse meat, which also
was blasted and shattered and
smeared about. When the smoke
and the rust and the fumes
cleared, it was a ghastly sight as
. they describe it to you. In ad
dition to the killed 500 people
were injured.
THE bombers, of course, were
old stuff. There were methods
of defense against them. The
buzzbombs, in time, became old

against them were developed

A WEAPON
- By Charles V. Stanton
The time when War means annihilation of whole popula
tions seems to be drawing nearer and nearer. Since the
days when men fought with clubs and stones, war has
grown progressively destructive to life and property as
the spear, bow and arrow, catapults, and other weapons
were added to facilities for conflict. The invention of gun
powder and its application to rifles, pistols and cannon
added the element of distance, removing the factor of ex
clusively hand-to-hand fighting. Range of guns was limited,
but the airplane came into the picture, bombs replacing long
range artillery. Steadily the capacity of the airplane has
been increased and distance has been added to its range of
operation. Now comes the atomic bomb, a product of
American scientific research and ingenuity, solving a secret
which scientists for ages have been endeavoring to wrest
from the myriad mysteries of the universe. It unleashes a
new destructive force, more powerful than the mind of man
has previously been able to conceive. Its application as a
weapon of war is terrible to contemplate. How much
longer can man continue his inventions of destruction with
out destroying mankind?
The principle of the new explosive the United States has
unleashed upon Japan is explained by Howard W. Blakeslee,
Associated Press science editor, as follows :
The sun's power Is the sun's heat. For years scientists
have known that this heat could not come from ordinary fires
like any known on the earth's face. The sun Just wasn't big
enough to have lasted the billions of years during which there
Is plenty of evidence it has been burning at the present rate.
tn ordinary fire, molecules of wood, coal or whatever else
Is blazing, separate. As they come apart, the energy which
held them together, Is released In the form of heat, light and
other rays, like X-rays. Even a hot fire gives off a bit of X-rays.
The sun burns not by separation of molecules but by two
much more intensely hot methods. One Is the atoms that form
, molecules separating from each other. This kind of separa
tion releases Incredibly greater amounts of heat and energy
than molecule separations.
But an even greater source of sun power is the fact that
the atoms themselves come apart to some extent. These
atoms are made of electrons, protons and other electrical and
non-electrical particles. Electrons and other particles fly off the
atoms. This kind of separation releases even greater energies
unciumng neai ana an oiner sorts of rays) than the separa
tion of atoms from each other.
To solve the secret of solar power scientists of Great
Britain and the United States pooled their knowledge.
Working under high pressure and in the greatest secrecy
they solved Ihe problem, added by the tremendous industrial
and financial resources of the

yards of earth, placed 780,000 cubic yards of concrete, used

bricks, and enough poles to build a power line from Chi

understood lrom the report

Harnessing the atom released powerful new forces which
may revolutionize our daily
mtherto unknown source of energy. The material may be
used to destroy or build civilization. Used in warfare it
could create greater destruction than has ever been known
in the history of mankind. Turned into peaceful channels it
can raise civilization to new high levels.
Future use depends entirely upon the ability of peoples
of the world to live in harmony and peace. Perhaps the
threat of the atomic bomb will serve to produce the uni
versal peace which mankind has so long desired but has
been unable to obtain through treaties or pacts.

'Iff Phases of
Atomic Bomb Told
WASHINGTON, Aug. 7 (AP)
Our war tactics will be revised
sharply if the atomic bomb can
be delivered as simply as conven
tional types.
A few .fast bombers, heavily
protected by liphers and flying
above effective link range, could
accomplish a mission which now
requires hundreds of large plan
es. And if the tremendous forces
involved in atomic disintegration
can be fully controlled they
miRht be controlled either in pro
pelling the bombers or seidinK
out remotely controlled bombs.
President Truman described
the explosive charge as extreme
ly small, but the official descrip
tion of the July lb test in New
Mexico indicates that complex
and possibly heavy apparatus is
necessary to detonate the charge.
in view ol unollicial veneris
and the official description of the
test, it seems likely that the
bomb Is considerably heavier
than the -100 pounds indicated by
a British commentator.
The number of persons involved
in production indicates a high
coft in man hours. A very highly
placed allied air official recently
criticiA'd the German V-2 for its
production cost, but the same ar
gument would not be valid
auainst the new bomb because its
destructive capacity is thousands
of times that of the rocket bomb.
Furthermore, it may be assum
ed that the atomic bomb can be
dropiieil with accuracy equalling
that of standard typos, while the
V-J as strictly an area weapon.

Atomic Bomb May
Spell Permanent
Peace of World
By DeWITT MacKENZIE
AP Foreign Affairs Analyst
That atomic bomb bids fair to
be the one to end all bombs.
There are two ways of looking
at this terrible new power. The
happier view is that militaristic
minded nations no longer will
dare make war and so expose
themselves to annihilation. It may
be that we stand on the thresh
hold of an era of peace, ironically
imposed on a mischievous world
by fear of the most awful weapon
ever devised. '
That's one wav of endln? all
bombs. But there's another and
less comforting viewpoint. This
was rather bluntly but succinctly
expressed by an editor just after
news oi the atomic bomb broke.
"It makes me sick at my stom
ach to think of it," he said. "You
wonder whether man isn't getting
100 aamnca smart, ana won t de
stroy himself."
Won't Be Secret Long
Well, of course you can't dis
count that idea. Certainly the
time has arrived when, If all
countries don't axrec to forsake
armed aggression, nations will be
liable to destruction almost over
night. In this connection we
should remember that the secret
of the bomb perhaps won't be se
cret long. The scientists of the
w orld will ferret It out.
The Germans all but had it
when we overwhelmed them, and
if they had succeeded In solving
the problem, we folk of the
United States and the other al
lied nations today might be under
Hitler's heel. President Truman
himself has said that some pro
tection against the bomb must be
found before its secret is given to
the world.
World Peace Envisaged
On the whole it seems logical
to expect that the atomic bomb
may be the rainbow of peace
rather than the sign of global
suicide. Surely the world has too
much horse-sense to challenge
such a power. Even a gangster
gunman doesn't deliberately walk
into machincgun fire. We get en
couragement for this view in Mr.
Truman's statement: "I shall give
further consideration and make
further recommendation to the
congress as to how atomic powa
can become a powerful and force
ful influence towards world
peace."
World peace is the greatest
boon rhat the discovery can bring
us, so far as we can Judge now.
But with peace assured, there ap
parently are unlimited benefits

However, we still have a Job of
war to clear up before we- can
set the atomic bomb policing the
globe. And how is this amazing
development likely to affect the
Japanese lmDrognoY
To answer that we need to
know the full Jap reaction to that
first terrific atomic bomb. Thus
far they have admitted cautiously
its destructive power and say it
did "considerable damage." Either
they surrender forthwith (which
any reasonable people would do)
or, to use President Truman's
language again, "They may ex
pect a rain of ruin from the air,
the like of which has never been
seen on earth."
But If the misguided men of
Nippon prefer to fight it out, the
new bomb promises the allies an
easier and much quicker end to
the war. We are told that this
bomb has an explosive force
equal to the striking-power of a
fleet of 2,000 B-29s, each carrying
10 tons of TNT. This means that
huge sections of the Japanese
mainland could be literally para
lyzed within a few hours with the
atomic bomb.
Thus by using these bombs for
preliminary bombardment, allied
iroops couio do put ashore with
ease. Indeed, judging from the
advance notices of this atomic
tornado, there should be no oppo
sition to the Initial landing at all.
In any event, without pushing
our optimism too hard, we can
assume that the complexion of
the war has been completely al
terea ana mat tne allies are in
position to call the turn pretty
