Absurdity Of Russian Claim In Use Of
Atomic Energy Exposed By Science
By HOWARD W. BLAKESLEE
Auocllted Pru Science Editor
NEW YORK OP) The uses and handicaps of atomic energy tor
Diasung canals and mountains, the peaceful work claimed by An
drei Y. Vishinsky, are well known among American atomic scientists.
They were discussed by engi
neers immediately after the war.
They were dismissed, not as use
less, but as limited to very spe
cial purposes.

Second There is no way of
splitting an atom bomb, or any
atomic explosive, into small
parts. This is one of the real
handicaps lor, atomic blasting f')r
construction work. Military au-
tnonues repeatedly nave sam
that atomb bombs would 'e more
effective for many purposes if
they could be split into smaller
parcels, little A-bombs. When
split they would cover a wider
area. They would actually do
more damage.
Third One atom bomb, or its
equivalent in atomic explosive,
cannot make more than a little
dent in a mountain. How many
it woum take to topple a moun
tain, or even to blast a channel
through a low mountain spur, is
unknown.
Fourth There is the precious
nature oi atomic explosive which
might sharply limit use for blast
ing. It would be like using gold
instead of powder for digging
oncnes. Atomic explosives, in cue
United States, cost more than
gold. However, the cost, so far
as is known, is not a factor in
Russia.
Fifth In the special circum
stances where an atomic explo

Is an added handicap of making
tne ground radioactive. The New
Mexico crater is still radioac
tive, after four years. This radio
activity would not necessarily
prevent atomic blasting. Soon
after a blast, men could work in
the crater for short Deriods per
haps not more tha:. 10 minutes
once each 24 hours. Later this
time could be greatly lengthen
ed. But the radioactivity would
hang on for years, always pre

Evangelist Fails

Is Los Angeles' public enemy No.

trail? '
Evangelist Billy Graham said
he visited Mickey Cohen at the
latter's home Saturday night, but
the dapper gambler denies ever
having talked to him.
"I did my best to kill this sto
ry," said the evangelist yester
day, "Mr. Cohen doesn't want
this type of story and neither do
I. But it Is not a publicity story;
it is a true story."
Graham said he paid the "so
cial call" to invite Cohen to the
Christ for Greater Los Angeles
revival. He discussed the matter
only after reports of such a meet
ing were published.
Graham, now in the eighth
week of a revival in a downtown
tent cathedral, said he spent
some time at Cohen's home.
"We had a verv Dleasant social
visit," the evangelist said. "He
served us soft drinks. I invited
him to come down to the tent.
He made no promises. My only
