=7S HAT happens when an atmoic bomb
SWW explodes?
NMM Books could be written on the
subject and the layman still
wouldn't understand.
In order to present the very complicated
story of the atom bomb in few words and
in simpliied sketches, the Pictorial Review
publishes today these two pages which are
the best explanatory illustrations of the
atomic power prepared TO date.
Detroit evening times., 1945-10-28

The above sketch shows an atomic bomb
explosion in its four stages as compared with
a lotion high explosive bomb. In the former
case energy disintegrates the surrounding
atmosphere with catastrophe effect and with
the generation of heat causes the vaporization
of the target area.
Heat is of little account and will not even
start fires unless materials such as gasoline
are present The atomic bomb. however, IS

Senator George Suggests Tax

His view Is that the surtax
should be held At the current
level for the present and that II
be gradually decreased over the
next few years.
THE IS automobile use tax
ought to be dropped" he said.
1T is not 4 sound tax, 1t is pure

Taxation can't create enter
prise" George said, but badly
devised and administered taxes
can limit and restrict 1t and fin
ally destroy 1t.
I'VE must meet the revenue
needs of the government, but all
must be based on the capacity
of the taxpayer to pay"
He added that q lower tax
rate for small businesses and
enterprises Is needed rae
lower than the rate on all bust
ness.
The capital gains tax, he said,
should not be interferred with
next year, but 4 sounder tax pro-
gram along this line might be
worked out after 1916.
Most of the excise taxes, he
pointed out, will 60 out six
after the end of the war,
and Congress might accomplish
this simply by 4 resolution.

Foreign
Policy to
be Chang ed

WASHINGTON, Aug. 17-(R
- Further changes in the top
control of this country's foreign
policy appear in the offing to-
day, following Dean Acheson's
elevation to succeed Undersec-
rotary of State Joseph c. Grew.
1t is possible, however, that
Secretary of State Byrnes may
delay ntil-he returns next
month from the Council of For
eign Ministers meeting in Lon
don.
President Truman late yester-
day announced the appointment
of Acheson, an assistant secre-
tary who first came to WASH
ington in early New Deal days.
simultaneously Mr.. Truman ac-
copied Crews resignation mark
ing the close of q 41-year for
eign service career.
Ambassador to Tokyo from
1892 until Pearl Harbor, Grew
is credited with formulating AL
lied policy toward the japanese
Emperor which figured in Nip
ponese surrender earlier this
week. The 65-year-old veteran
diplomat advocated an op n
minded approach to permit the
Allies to make any possible use
of the throne, with q final de-
termination to be left to the
Japanese people.
Acheson, a 52-year-old lawyer
who served briefly a. Under
secretary of the Treasury in
1893, went to the State Depart
ment three years ago after
spending the intervening period
in private practise.
Since 1912 he has had q hand
in shaping both this country's
wartime and postwar foreign
economic policies. He also was
detailed to liaison work with
Congress and has many friends
on Capitol Hill.

 Yesterdays meeting here resulted in plans to establish refresher and instructive courses for veterans just as soon as feasible, at the Mulcahy building.
 Tentative plans now call for the construction of a machine shop building to the present Mulcahy site for purposes of housing the heavy equipment, and then the demolish- ing of the main Mulcahy building on the site of which, possibly, will be built the new and permanent trade school building.
 The city now will have use of the equipment at the WPTC at TIT South Main street, a federal spon- sored industrial training center. Over thirty pieces of equipment now are at this site under supervision of James Calvin.
 Under present state regulations the city must eventually construct g building of at least $100,000 worth which then will be maintained and operated by the state. The city has been authorized to issue bonds fo1 such a construction, while the sum

Waterville, June 27-The climax of the pranks and damage being done by the young boys of the vile was the disappearance of the bas- ket of flowers placed at the honor roll by the women of Grace Meth odist church. These teen age youngsters have three or four times broken the flagpole rope, the back stops at the ball park have all been damaged and many other little annoying things have happened. It would seem that something could be done about this, considering the fine care given the park by the Park department.

Inside Germany, June 27-UP) Conquered Germany has been burned and blasted beyond belief or recognition. Fifty per cent of the buildings in the greater cities have been knocked down or burned.
 Cities are a shambles far into the Reich, miles beyond the range of our artillery or the areas reached by ground troops before Germany surrendered. The bridegs, the cit ies, the great industrial plants lie in broken hubble.
 Beneath the ruins of German buildings lie tens of thousands or bodies. Through the streets of these dead cities plod bomb-punchy men and women. Only the little chil- dren seem always to be gay ana happy.
 In A 1,0O0-mile journey by plane and jeep I saw blasted Germany closeup from the air and closeup from the ground. Cologne, Essen, Mulheim, Duisberg, Nuremberg, Hanover, Magdeburg, Bremen Hamburg, Brauschweig, Ludwlgs- hafen. Munich-they are fair ex- amples of what bombs can do. Col ogne is nearly obliterated except TOT a ring of inhabitable buildings around the outer fringe but the great cathedral remains upright You can ride for blocks through Hamburg streets and see only runs in any direction.
 In the larger cities, the people double I'D with three or more ln a single room. There are cellars beneath wrecked apartment houses in which families live now ana must live through the hard winter to come.
 This ruin inside Germany, Tar forward from the final battle iines' vas achieved by the United States Strategic Air Force and the Royal Air Force Bomber Command. For short the former is known as JSSTAF, deadly organization commanded by Gen. Carl A Spaatz. Sometimes it was called the SpaatZwaffe.
 Operating at night, RAF bombers plastered the cities. It was the RAF more than USSTAF which ac- counted for the wreckage of Ger man towns. RAF technique was to come over the city target in the darkness. The British had devices which could locate the center of a

Lyle c. Wilson, manager of the United Press Washington Bureau, has just finished 1,000- mile tour of Germany by plane and jeep. His assignment was to find out what was happening in the con- quered Reich. In the following dispatch, first of a series, he writes that the first thing that impreSses an outsider coming into Germany is the overlapping damage done to the Reich's cit ies by the United States Army Air Force and the Royal Air Force, fifty per cent of the larger cit ies have been knocked down or burned. This dispatch tells how the U. S. Air Force decided to strike by daylight against Ger many-against the advice of the British, including Prime Minis ter Churchill.
