April 19 lAV-The exuloslons at Texas City, Tex., this week represented only a fraction of the force of even the earliest type of atomic bomb, Prof. Joseph Henderson of the Uni versity of Washington told the Jun ior chamber of commerce here to day. Professor Henderson, who partici pated In the Bikini tests, said the underwater blast had revolution ised scientific and military think ing on tlie use of the bomb. Used UKnlnsl coast cities, he said, the bomb could achieve maximum de struction and seven bombs If used efficiently could virtually wipe out the seven major west coast porta In the United States and Canada. One bomb In Seattle's Elliott bay, Henderson added, would throw up a wall of water high enough to sweep over West Seattle and capltol and Queen Anne hills, flooding everything with radio active water.
