Hiroshima-Nagasaki Toll Of Atom Bomb Reported (Continued from Page 1) direct concussion from the ex plosion, all windows and roofs in these more remote parts were shattered or blasted, "with the result that almost the entire city was affected by the raid." The explosion ot the atomic bomb apparently continues to build up increasea pressure aner the first impact of the explosion, Sutezo Torii, Japanese defense headquarters 'technician, said to day in a report on a detailed study of the first atomic explosion at Hiroshima. Effect Is Described "The sound of the explosion. said Torii's report, as broadcast bv the Japanese Domei news agency, "seemed to have been heard at tne same time as tne pressure of the concussion. Flash and pressure concussion are ex tremely powerful. However, tne effect is comparatively slow. Thus, if it were an ordinary homb. flash and explosive pres sure would be most powerful at the moment of the explosion, but the pressure immediately released after the atomic bomb exploded swiftly scatters elastic energy throughout the air. Torii noted that persons who witnessed the "monstrous spec tacle" said they actually saw rip ples circulate from the explosion and that the explosive pressure was felt for a considerable period. The investigation disclosed also that persons burned by the ex plosion were more seriously in jured on the side facing the bomb, while the burns were lighter. on the far side. "There is about 10 minutes time between the time houses are destroyed and the time the first catch fire," Torii reported. "From five to 10 minutes after the atomic bomb exploded a black shower rained. This was appar ently some form of liquid coming from the atomic bomb, and it left black stains on white shirt cloth fnr.

Airborne troops will' follow Sunday, landing at Atsugi air drome, 20 miles southwest of Tokyo, while two great fleets move into Sagami bay below Tokvo and possibly Tokyo bay itself. MacArthur himself will flv to Atsugi airdrome Tuesday, simul taneous with general landings of occupation forces from transports and warships south of Tokyo. All of these reports came from the Japanese who reported 20,000 troops would he in the original occupation force taking over ter ritory around the Tokvo metro politan area, but not the capital itself. Only American confirmation was that the peaceful invasion would be supported by the great est display of military power vet shown on foreign territory. Mili tary men said air and naval cover for occupation forces would be on the same scale as an invasion. Jaos Warned Against Rashness Emperor Hirohit's government canceled civilian rail transporta tion in the area to speed the ex odus of imperial troops. Gen darmes and navy police will move in to support regular po lice. Meanwhile Japan's propaganda machine, which has been telling the Japanese they were unbeat able, was thrown into reverse gear. Japanese were admonished against rash action and told that for their "own good there must be speedy realization that the old order is finished."- Rangoon dispatches said that before tonight (U. S. time) en voys from Marshal Terauchi are expected to meet with represen tatives of Admiral Mounthatten to prenare for surrender in South east Asia last maior area to be reached by Hirohito's princely emissaries with word that the war was over.

Tire Ration Relaxation Assured in Ninety Days (Continued from Page 1) ing house seekers free to bargain with landlords instead of being forced to take anything. OPA indicated meat points would be reduced, beginning next month. Agriculture Secretary An derson already has said meat ra tionin" would end soon. WPB said it would scrap its complicated network of controls over allocatinc materials and set ting up priorities by the end of September. So by Oct. 1, CMP -"the con trolled materials plan" coos overboard. This was the govern ment's control over steel, copper and aluminum. The Army, ISavv and civilian agencies under CMP got ra tions of metals. In turn they ra tioned it to contractors, the con tractors to subcontractors and so on. Also to be dropped will be the whole series of priority ratings AA-1, AA-2, AA-3, and"AA-4. Replacing them will be a simp ler system, much reduced. Pro ducers for military reouirements will get an "MM" rating. Then there will be a junior rating called "CC". WPB said the junior rating will be used sparingly. A company can get it to break a serious re conversion bottleneck in ma terials or equipment. But otherwise non-mill tarv production will get no helo through nrloritiei generally. It will be a free scramble. Lumber Control Stays The government told business men to build all the new factories, plants and additions they could. Controls on building were taken off but the government still kept controls on some materials, like lumber. WPM Chairman Krug snid the tight supply situation in lumber and other building materials should ease off soon as miiltarv demands slacken and more men are available for work.
