Three Scientists
Tell of Making
An-PowerfuI Bomb

LOS ALAMOS. N. NJ, Aug. II.
tUPD-ScientiStS who have worked
years on development Of atomic
power and are now numbered among
the world S foremost authorities on
the new atomic bomb, now have
permission to express their opinions
of the Notwithstanding discovery.
Released by public relations off
cials at this desert city where the
bomb was perfected were statements
by three Of the weapons fathers
Nobel prize winner Dr.. Enrique
Fermi, DR.. Emilio Scare and DR.
Bruno ROSSi.
DR.. Fermi said: Atomic power
may be used not only for purposes
of destruction but probably will
prove also an important factor III
progress. One might say it is Ger
talnly the hope of scientists who
contributed to his development that
peacetime applications and wise Use
Of this tremendously powerful! wea-
pom may ultimately serve to improve
human relations"
DR.. Segre. commenting on the
spectacular effect. of the bomb
detOnation, said: THE first test of
the atomic bomb staggered the i'm
aginatiOn of even scientists who had
clear theoretical knowledge of en-
ergy. No man-made experiment had
shown effects on such a scale. Only
the great natural phenomena like
volcanic cruptions and the aurora
bOrealis are comparable to it,"
DR.. ROSsi said: My feeling. which
is shared by most of the scientists
who helped in the development OF
the atomic bomb and witnessed the
first test, is one of awe for the trc-
mendOus source of power which has
neen put at the disposal Of man
kind. The thought of possible cOnsc-
qucnCeS of the discovery has more
than a sobering effect on the salts
faction for the success Of our work.
What We all fcrvcntlv hope is that
the very dCStruCtlycncSS OF atomic
energy will be a powerful factor
