75,OOO Workers Employed On AtomicBomb
26,OOO Building Trades And Construction Workers
 Did The Job!

OAK RIDGE, Tenn.-(FP)-Be- hind the best-guarded secret of the war, the development of the mighty atomic bomb, is the story of tens of thousands of men and women. working grimly, steadfastIy in a race against time.
 Here at Oak Ridge, one of the three cities which sprang up over night as part of the project, workers today are wearing proud smiles at the news that the product they have been secretly working on is expected to shorten the war considerably and save thousands of lives. But for two years they worked on faith alone, many of them not even sure they were making anything. They saw huge quantities of material going into the plants but nothing coming out.
 If the product they were making was mysteriously invisible, all around them were the signs of great enter prise. From a rolling countryside marked only with oaks and scrub pine, the pressure of the wars greatest dis covery created a town of nearly 75,OOO, fifth largest in the state.
 Recruited from all parts of the US. with the help of the AFL, some 10000 construction and 49,OOO operating workers now live and work in this 59,OOO-acre project. The peak construction force was 47,OOO. Workers who came here in the early days of the project still remember the ankle-deep mud they had to wade through to get to work, the makeshift houses in which they lived.
 Since then more than 300 miles of roads have been built or improved and 55 miles of railroad track have been

SOLDIER
Mother dear, wherever you are,
The sun is always shining,
A thousand miles away am !,
My heart is always pining.
It is pining for the one miss,
The one I love so dear,
Gee, I'd be the happiest son,
If you were always near.
Somewhere in the U. S. A.
My mother sits alone,
I know that she is waiting,
For her son to come back home.
Now keep on waiting, Mother
dear,
There is nothing else to do,
For some day your son,
Is coming back to you.
If you could travel with me Mo-
Their,
My life would be content,
Then could have you with me,
Wherever I was sent.
When you write me, Mother dear,
It makes me feel so glad,
But when you wait so long to
write,
It makes me feel so bad.
Somewhere the sky is cloudy,
Somewhere the sky is blue,
Somewhere your sons heart
Is yearning for you.
It takes two to make life happy,
