Truman Tells
y Soviet Entry
Into Conflict

become iirenlor than the Japs
could muster there became of
snvlels reinforcements from the
Kurnneen irmltl. Whatever
flulillng lit necessary In Man
rburla, therefore, may be done
by Russia.
One Sentence
Mr. Truman then nwde the
simple one sentence announce
ment of Russia's declaration of
war. He added that was all he
had to snv.
The short announcement
brought a gasp from reporters
who had rushed to the While
Homo In a stream of lexicons
and an exclamation of "My
God from some.
A number of naval aides and
state department attache were
present when the announcement
was made.
The president's usual smile
was absent as he made the
irnve disclosure.
Whether the arrangement
for Russian entry Into the war
on Japan were fashioned at
Potsdam was not disclosed.
The chief executive may
throw Unlit on that tomorrow In
a report to be broadcast to the
nation at 10 p. m. Eastern Stand
ard time. '
A communique, signed by him-
. wit, ucnrniimiimo builin ana
Prime Minister Attlee, released
' when the ralsdum meeting end
ed, made no specific mention of
Japan, But it carried the slg
nlflcnnt statement that chiefs of
staff had studied military mat
ters ' ot mutual Interest, -Many
Hints
There hod been multiple hint
that the Soviets would align
themselves with the western, at
lies In crushing the Nipponese.
Perhaps the most pointed was
Kussia a denunciation montns
ago of Its non-aggression pact
with Japan.
Even while Russia and 49
other nations were striving to
perfect a plan for ultimate, last
ing peace at ban Francisco,
there were signs that Russia
might strike In the Pacific.
Ciuardcd Indications pointed
to tno fact that the soviet dele
gallon would not return to Mos
cow by way of Siberia, as they
came. Members of the Russian
party with families within
bombing rffligo of Japan showed
evidence ol worry.
Russia's entry into the Pacific
war is generally expected to
turn loose a new wave or psyclv
ologlcal and propagandist activ
Ity directed at persuading the
enemy that resistance now is
completely futile.
Already tho allies have been
capitalizing to the fullest on the
threat of tho new atomic bomb
In Washington and London
within tho last few hours there
have been expectations of a new
ultimatum to tho enemy to quit
now or face national, annlhila-
, tlon.
A What factors finally tlDDed
the balance and persuaded the
Soviets to go to war again so
I soon alter helping to crush Oer

here..
These, too, may figure In

No Comparison
An expert at U. S. army
strategic air force headquarters
sold there was no comparison
between the fire caused by the
atomic bomb and normal con
flagrations. When Yokohama
was burned by Incendiaries, he
said, It looked as if smoke pots
were bunting throughout the
city. At Hiroshima, a white
plume of smoke rose thousands
of feet Into tho air. Crewmen of
the B-20 which dropped the
bomb said it rose 40,000 feet.
At the base of this high-necked
mushroom was a cloud-like
accumulation which was be
lieved to be dust blown Into the
air by the tremendous concus
sion. Similar dust clouds were
created In Europe by British
four-ton bombs.
The high plume of smoke
which rose Immediately ' after
the bombing was likened to the
smoke from explosion of an am
munition snip.
In that one swift, devastating
strike, a B-20 piloted by Col.
Paul W. Tibbcls Jr.. wrought us
great damage as normally is In
flicted by a large force of the
sky. giants. Tibbcls' Superfort,
