' Exact time of this alleged in cident she did not disclose. She did give the reason. It was, ac cording to Frau Goering, because the doctor realized hat Hitler was mad. Here is the story as she told it to me: The Fuehrer had two physi cians, Morell and Brandt. Morel) decided that his patient should die. So into a prescription he put a quantity of strychnine that, in course of time, would have been lethal. By chance Doctor Brandt saw the prescription. He recog nized its significance, and rush ed to Hitler. "My fuehrer," he cried, "Mo rell wants to murder you." Hitler listened to Brandt's story and sent lor Morell, with whom he had a long talk. Then he call ed Brandt back. He told Brandt that while he appreciated him. he had decided that one doctor Real Estate Atomic Bomb May 'Usher in New Era' Say Truman WASHINGTON, Aug. 6 UP) President Truman suid today the new atomic bomb developed in this country as a weapon of war promises to usher in a "new era" in man's understanding of the forces of nature. Secretary, of War Slimson, also said atomiq power holds great promise for use in peace times. Stimson has nair?d a policy committee, with tho approval of the president, to formulate re commendations concerning the post-war organization of . Atomic power development. 1 On this committee are Stimson, chairman; James F. Byrnes, sec retary of state, Ralph A. Bard, former i(ndersecretaiy of the navy; William L,. Clayton, assist ant secretary of state; Dr. Van nevur Bush, director of the of fice lof scientific research, Du'. James B. Conent, chairman of the national defense research com mittee and president of Harvard university, Dr. Karl T. Compton, chief of the office of field service and president of the Massachu setts Institution of Technology; and George L. Harrison, special consultont to Stimson and presi dent of the New York life insur ance company. GOOD JOBS IN PLEASANT HOMES RICHLAND, Wash., Aug. 0 (UP) President Truman's re velation today of the atomic bomb gave 17,000 residents of this wartime village their first hint of what they were manufac turing ut the vast Hunford en gineering project 30 miles uwuy. The workers who came here from virtually all states in the Union have good jobs and live in pleasant government - built homes on the banks of the Col umbia river. PARTIAL LIST OF CONCERNS REVEALED WASHINGTON, Aug. 6 (UP) Secretary of War Henry L. Stim son today revealed a partial list of industrial concerns which con tributed "so signally" to the suc cess of the atomic bomb. The Du Pont De Nemours Co. designed and constructed the big Hanford installations in Washington state and operates them, he said. A special subsidiary of the M. W. Kellogg company, of New York designed one of the plants at Clinton, Tenn., which was con structed by the J. A. Jones Co. and is operated by the Union Carbide and Carbon Co. Other commercial firms losted are the Stone & Webster Engineering 3orp., 'Allis - Chalmeis.Chrysler, uenerai ticcirjc . ana Westing house. . t BEGAN WORK BEFORE 1940 ON "U-23S" 5 WASHINGTON1, Aug. 0 (UP) First knowledge American physi cists had begun to corrul atomic energy possibly the greatest scientific discovery of all time .came to light in the spring of 1940. : Scientiists at time concluded: One pound of U-235 if they hud it and could harness it would be equal in power output to 5,000,000 pounds of coal or 3,000, 000 pounds of gasoline, roughly 400,000 gallons. One pound of U-235 would contain as much energy as 15,000 tons of TNT, or 300 carloads of 50 tons each. If this one pound of U-235 ex ploded within l10,O00ths of a second, as does TNT, the pres sure produced would be of 100, 000,000 atmospheres. This would be about 1,000,000 times tho pres sure produced by TNT or nytro glycerine, they estimated then. was enough. "I don't know whether he con tinued to lake Morell's medicine," Emmy told me. "But from that time on, he hated Brandt. When Brandt allowed his wife, a Red Cross nurse, to be captured by the Americans, Hitler had Brandt arrested. That's the fuehrer's gratitude!'1 'GUAM' SKIPPER Cap. L land P. Lovette of Washington, D. C, is skipper of the U. S. navy' battle cruiser Guam, one of two ships in the nev class.

Sun s Power The force from which the sun draws its power has been loosed against those, who brought wa: to the far east. Reviewing the fearful potency of the new bomb, the president suid ha will recommend congress consider the establishment of un appropriate commission to control the production and use ot atomic power within tho United States. I shall give turiner consid eration and make further re commendations to the congress as lo how atomic power can become a powerful and force ful Influence toward the main tenance of world peace," the president said. Before 193D, Truman said, it was the accepted belief of sci entists It was. "theoretically pos sible" to release atomic energy. But no one then knew any prac tical method of doing It, he said, Germans Failed , ' By 1942, however, Truman con tinued "we knew the Germans were working to find a way. "But they failed," Truman said. "We may be grateful lo providence the Germans got the V.l and the V-2 (rocket bombs which ihey showered on England) late and in limited quantities and even more grateful they did not get the atomic bomb ai all." The "battle of the laboratories," Truman said, held "fateful risks" for the United States as well aa the battles of the air, land and sea. Pooled Knowledge The president said that begin ning in 1940 before Pearl Har bor the United States and. Great Britain pooled their scien tific knowledge that ' would be useful in war and said "many priceless helps to our victories" came from that arrangement. - Prime Minister Winston Chur chill and the I la t o President Roosevelt agreed the research should be carried on in the United States because Britain was exposed to constant air at tack and,, was still threatened with invasion. More Details Truman said Secretary of War Henry L. Stimson, who has kept in personal touch with develop ments, will make public further details. Stimson's statement, the president said, will give "facts" concerning the atomic preduetion centers at Oak Ridge, near Knox ville, Tenn.; at Richland, near Pasco, Wash.; and near Santa Fe, N, M. , .-..', . The resident suid although the workers ut these sites have been milking materials to produce "the greatest destructive force in his tory." They hud not been in dun ger beyond that of many other occupations. .. '. Not Commercial Tho president said this har nessing of atomic energy might be used in the future to supple ment the power that comes from coal,' oil, and Waterfalls, but said al present "it cannot be produced on a basis to compete with them commercially." Before that comes, he said, there must be "a long period of intensive research. "Under present circumstances it Is not Intended to divulge tho technical processes of production or all the military applications, pending further examination of possible methods of protecting us and the rest of the word."
