Groves Sees Peril in Delay
OF Atomic Research Setup

Danger of delay in atomic research
is $seen in the fact that no per-

yet been agreed on by Congress, &C
cording to Maj. Gen. Leslie r.
Groves.
In speech yesterday at a
Shriners' luncheon at Almas Temple,
Gen. Groves, who co-ordlnated de-
yelopment of the atomic bomb, SAID
he was afraid members of the l2O,-
OOo-man team which developed the
bomb would look for other employ
ment unless they are told soon what
the permanent status of atomic re-
search will be and given specific
data about their jobs.
He said the War Department is
continuing research on the assump-
ton that there must be no lag in
atomic research and development.
Gen. Groves related that he was
called away from table at the
Army and Navy Club to be told
the vital plane carrying the first
bomb had taken of. He said the
eyes of six of his superiors in the
dining room bored into his back as
he left the room. He added that
the six men rushed through their
dinners and dropped past his table
to ask, "How's it coming?"
