Americans Learn To Cease Worrying Over Atom Bomb As Dread Of Conflict Dies By HAL BOYLE NEW YORK (AP) America has learned to live with the atom bomb. The final proof of this was the televising of the latest Explosion in Nevada. There was a mixed reaction to the a-bomb's video debut Taken purely in terms of sound, many viewers found it less awe-inspiring than the vocal chords of Milton Berle. "It looks like a closeup of .liinmy Durante," one spectator comment ed. Others felt it still had a long way to go before it would seriously rival Arthur Godfrey. And some, who dialed in the demonstration late, mistook the gigantic smoke puff for a new kind of cigaret ad. But the mere fact that millions of housewives could sit i n their living rooms and calmly watch an atom bomb burst shows how much the public has lost its fear of this frightful weapon. Even five years ago a this kind might have stirred up storm of protest. People had an unreasoning panic about the atom iomb then. Many parents objected to radio discussions of it, saying it created hysteria in their chil dren. At that time the bomb was ac tvely feared as an instrument that could and might well be expected to wipe out civilization. It would be interesting to know how many families bought remote mountain hideaways, or secretly stored food caches in caverns against the possibility of the out break of a disastrous world-wide atom war. It was done. Dread Dying Down But recently, despite the an nouncement of three atomic explo sions in Soviet Russia, the national dread of atomic conflict has died down. The scare wave has sub sided. One reason is that five years ago it was accepted as a certainty that a new war would be heralded by a rain of atom bombs. But fighting has gone on for 22 months in Korea without the em ployment of these devastating bombs by eit'ner side. Hope is growing that they never may be used again in anger. Another reason for the more sen sible approach to the problem of the atom bomb is the fact that the population has become adjusted to Local News Frl., April 25, 1952 Tht News-Review, Roseburg, Ore. 11 In Portland Mr. and Mrs. Sim Darby of Roseburg are in Portland to spend the weekend.

It mght happen, but meanwhile a man has to get up and go to work every day and take his chances. Atom bombs are getting stronger and more numerous as the scien tists go on quietly exploring the mathematics of extinction. But the average man today has worn out his worry.

MAIN STREET U.S. Engineers Strike Desert Mineral Water EGHORN, Italy I People here are saying a thirsty American in the middle of a desert would probably find a bottle of cham pagne "they're that lucky." This is why: The U.S. Army supply port com mand here was having trouble ar ranging for adequate water supply. Eghorn has limited drinking wa ter, and the Communist city ad ministration was hesitant to allow the Americans large quantities. The American engineers dug their own well. At 170 feet they struck a supply yielding l.ooo quarts a minute. Then doctors ex amined it. They found it a healthy mineral water of a kind that sells in Italy for 20 cents a bottle.
