The AAP had even larger bombs
one of 100.000 pounds under
consideration and in the blueprint
stage, but designers said privately
today that a curtailed research pro
gram resulted In shelving these pro
jects. Block Busier
They described the 42.000-pound-er
as a "general purpose, block
buster" type.
There was a hint over the week
end, meanwhile, that the military
may be looking Into the future for
an even more fearful weapon an
atomic bomb which when dropped
from a high altitude might sink
deep Into the earth and produce a
man-made quake.
An AAP announcement of forth
coming tests with deep-penetration
bombs on a submarine assembly fac
tory at Farge. Germany, referred
specifically only to twe standard
explosive bombs developed since
wars end. They are the 25.000-
pound "Amazon'' and "Samson."
But the announcement conclud
ed with this cryptic statement:
"With the Introduction of atomic
warfare in World War II. It Is logi- I
cal that the need for these special
ized types of bombs may be even
greater for future defense."

These senators told reporters they

Senator White of Maine, the re
publican leader, told reporters there
Is "substantial sentiment" among
his party members to keep the sen

The vole was 280 to 112.
There are no plana for considera

! pealedly In the past by southern
imuusicrs.
Called up unexpectedly, house ac
tion came over the futile objections
of a group of southern representa
tives who tried parliamentary de
vices to block a final vote. They
succeeded only In delaytr.fi the show
down several hours.
Led by Reps. Rankin ID-Miss.)

asserted the legislation invades the
right of states to run their own elec
tions and thereby violates the con
stitution. Bleything Death
