US Explodes 'Biggest'
H-Bomb in Pacific,
Japan Scientists Say
Tokyo (U.R) The United
States today detonated its "big
gest" hydrogen bomb shot of the
current test series In the Pacific
nuclear weapons proving
grounds, Japanese scientists
claimed.
One scientist said the explos
ion was comparable to the unex
pectedly powerful H-bomb blast
in the U. S. proving grounds
two years ago, and "bigger than
the Soviet tests last year."
The shot, by Japanese count,
is the eighth in the series which
began in the Eniwetok-Bikini
"laboratory" on May 5. The
United States has announced
only two, including one dropped
from a plane.
Registered on Instrument!
The explosion today was be
lieved to have been touched off
a little before 3 a.m. (10 a.m.
PST Tuesday). The shock was

Yukio Kawabata, chief of the
barometrical observation section,
said: "We don't know the exact
power of the explosion, but in
energy there is no doubt it is
the largest this year.
"It is bigger than the Soviet
tests last year," he said. "The
only test comparable with it is
the March 1 explosion two years
ago. The blast this time may
have released more energy than
that bomb."
The powerful H-bomb blast
near Bikini in March, 1954,
when the Japanese tuna boat

dusted, recorded a maximum os
cillation on barographs at 0.5

chief observer at the Tokyo me
teorological station.
Shows High Readings
Today barographs gave maxi
mum readings of 0.5 at three
places, compared to the maxi
mum oscillation of 0.3 register
ed in the largest previous ex
plosion this year. And at that,
officials of the government's
central meteorological observa
tory threw out a reading of 0.7
registered at Okayama.

Back Stairs: Ike Having Lawn Trouble
By DONALD J. GONZALES
United Press Correspondent
Gettysburg (U.R) Back
stairs and the Gettysburg White
House:
President Eisenhower is hav
ing trouble with the lawn at his
new guest house located near the
main gate to the farm.
Recent heavy rains have been
good for the President's corn,
wheat and pastures. But it has
been 'washing away newly-laid
sod at the guest house. Whole
sections of it have slid down to
the road, showing the underly
ing red earth and rocks.
The guest house, by the way,
is no patchwork job, even though
it formerly was the old Pitzer
school. Newsmen figure it would
be in the $22,000 and up class in
suburban Washington.
Under careful planning, the
school house has been extended
by 10 feet and made into a most
attractive three - dormer resi
dence. It has a breezeway linked
to a garage, three red brick
chimneys, a yard light, shrub
bery and all the trimmings. The
stone foundation and brick upper
structure are painted white. The
shutters are green.
The Eisenhowers had some
"fireworks" on July 4 after all
despite White House Press Sec
retary James C. Hagerty's state
ment to the contrary.
Mary Jane McCaffree, Mrs.
Eisenhower's secretary, went to
the dime store ahead of time.
With crepe paper and other pur
chases she put together an attrac
tive "sky-rocket" center piece
for the Eisenhower's holiday ta
ble. When it "exploded," the
grandchildren found it filled
with strings of lollypops.
Air Force Gen. Nathan F.
Twining was "planeless" when
he visited the President the oth
er day.
He couldn't fly up from Wash
ington because the weather was
too bad. Instead, he rode in a
limousine with Defense Secre
tary Charles E. Wilson, Air Sec
retary Donald A. Quarles and
Adm. Arthur W. Radford. Wil
son, Quarles and Radford got
the plush, easy-riding seats for
the two-hour trip to the farm;
Twining the hard jump seat.
"And the poor guy just came
all the way from Moscow," one
newsman remarked.
Gary, Ind. U.R) A time cap
sule containing a letter from
Mayor Peter Mandich to the
2006 Gary mayor and the his
tories of numerous Gary organi
zations was buried in the north
west corner of the city hall lawn,
to be opened in 50 years.

Citation Won't Block
Playwright's Trip
Washington (U.R) Chair
man Francis E. Walter (D-Pa.)
said today his House Committee
on Un-American Activities won't
block the planned European
honeymoon of playwright Ar
thur Miller and his new bride,
Marilyn Monroe.
The committee voted unani
mously Tuesday to cite Miller
for contempt of Congress for re
fusing to identify alleged Com
munist writers he once knew.
But Walter said the action will
not keep Miller and Miss Mon
roe from sailing for England
Friday the 13th for a delayed
honeymoon. Miss Miller will
make a movie in England with
British film star Sir Laurence
Olivier.
Miller only recently received
a six-month passport from the
State Department for the trip
with his new bride.
The House was expected to
approve the contempt citation.
The next step would be for the
Justice Department to make a
final decision on whether to
prosecute. Conviction carries a
maximum penalty of $1,000 fine
and a year in jail on each count.
