Aiirnndn> Tells
Of Holocaust

GUAM, Aug. s UNS)-Navy
Capt. William Parsons. weaponeer
aboard the Hiroshima bomber,
who was present at the first tests
of the atomic bomb at the Ala
mogordo IN. M bomb range, was
able to make comparisons be-
tween that occasion and actual
use of the bomb at Hiroshima.
THE most prominent feature
of the New Mexico test was
light flash of terrific brillance.
But that was In darkness At
about 8 q. m. This was In full
daylight, but had the men In
the plane not had dark glasses
there would have been definite
visual shock.
WAITED FOR SHOCK
when the weapon was re-
leased, 1 breathed a sigh of
relief and waited for the shock.
'It came as two slaps which
AOis AlDOtNS tuuuSht was uhti-
aircraft fire, as he yelled,
close flax
Then we made turn and
could see below.
what had been Hiroshima
was a mountain of white smoke
mushrOOming into the sky. For
a thousand feet above the
ground was a black pail which
must have been dust. There may
have been some smoke In II,
but IL couldn't have been from
fire alone.
FIRES STARTED
81 looked at this two or three
minutes when the top of the
mushroom broke off and floated
into the sky.
another mushroom formed,
the dust cloud spread and fires
started at Its edges, probably
starting in buildings In which
gas mains had broken or some
thing like that.
when the test WAS made N
the New Mexico desert, sand
fused over a wide radius and
people 90 miles away felt the
heat fash.
Temperatures are generated
here that we know only as TAX
ing place In stellar explosions"

Kelly, ran far ahead of the field
of six candidates. Nominated
against him was Arthur J. Muir
ply. an attorney, who has run
unsuccesSfully for a judicial post
many times.
Election 'officialS, unable 10 de-
tect much interest in the primary,
were aStonished by the turnout of
more than 100000 citizens.
VOTE SURPRIZES
They had expected less than
l25,00O ballots and were COM
PEELED TO recruit additional cleo
ton workers late yesterday after
noon when jams were foreseen at
many voting booths.
Complete return gave Franken-
steen 83.057 votes; Jeffries 6S, ,761
and Friel 35,735. None of the
other four candidates for mayor
had more than 5000.
The setback sustained d by
Mayor JeffrieS was the second
time he failed TO lead the prl-
mary in two years.
In 1943 JeffrieS trailed Circuit
Court Commissioner Frank Fitz-
Gerald by $4,000 votes, but ne re-
verSed the outcome in the general
election and won with $1,000 to
spare,
Unlike FITZGERALD. however,
Frankensteen is an active CIO
leader and is known to every
UAW member. His battle with
Jeffries during the next three
months may develop into one of
the closest and most bitterly con-
tested local election in many
years.
LABOR'S THIRD BID
II will be labor's third bid for
the city's highest office. Patrick
II. O'Brien, now a probate Judge,
carried the JAW banner in 1887.
.Frankensteen, who left law
school to operate drill press
in the Dodge factory more than
10 years ago, led Mayor Jeffries
in the first returns and remained
III front throughout the count.
Labor's strength in the primary
profited all the candidates en-
dorsed by the UAW-CIO. With
Frankensteen setting the pace,
Councilman George Edwards, who
is in the army, led the council
ticket. dropping the veteran coun-
Gil president John. c. Lodge to
second place.
WOMAN NOMINATED
The Rev. Hill, who finished
ninth, had labor's endorsement,
and Tracy NJ Doll. executive
secretary of the. CIO Political
Action Committee and a member
of the Legislature, finished in
eleventh place.
Mrs. Helen c. Bryant, assistant
prosecuting attorney, was twelfth
on the list, and City Controller
Charles G. Oakman, nephew Of
the late Bob Oakman, was in
thirteenth place.

Great fires blazed in the dock
area-probably from broken gas
mains or Short-circuited electric
machinery. Block upon block and
acre upon acre lay levelled.
The atomic explosion jumped
six rivers in its path. Four block
wide streams, running through
Hiroshima, merge into two wider
streams each about the width Of
four city blocks. These would
have made natural fire breaks in
incendiary bomb attacks which
only a few days ago were con-
sidered the most dreadful weapon
mans mind could devise.

avoided visiting the plant for
the same reason.

Matthias Is reasonably sure

dropped on Hiroshima. Japan,
also was Hanford product.
NO SABOTAGE FOUND

identified as sabotage, but
Matthias says he is certain
some people got on the job dur
ing the production period for
the sole purpose of finding out
something. He said, however, he
was just as certain there's no
body like that now
The huge financing of the
project was facilitated by allow
ing some members of the House

ingly low accidental death toll

tion of order following the dis

OF Hiroshima I'm the wake OF
the enemy's new type bomb on

ties are still unable to obtain a
definite checkup on the extent
OF the casualties sustained by
the civilian populations.
Medical and relief agencies
rushed from the neighboring
districts were unable to distin-
guish, much less identify, the
dead from the injured.
THE impact Of the bomb was
SO terrific that practically all
living things, human and ami
NAL, were literally scared TO
death by the tremendous sea
of pressure engendered by the
blast.
RELIEF DIFFICULT

Rency medical facilities, the

Tiny particles of what once

Successive photos showed

other mushroom of smoke pulled
up from below. The smoke rose
in a column TO 10000 feet and
then billowed upwards 10 10000.
Several hours later additional
reconnaissance photographs were

Dear Editor:
1t is interesting to observe the labor
situation back in the states now and
wonder if Governor Ford and others
who opposed the MVA have altered
their thinking.
I would like to have them know
that many of us who were only luke
warm to it previously are now com
pletely sold on the idea as an employ
ment solution and also as a good sound
investment for the entire nation.
The present unemployment indicates
that public works will have to absorb
a lot of manpower for an indefinite
time. Private enterprise seems very
cautious about investing money with
out a guarantee of all the profit the
consuming people can possibly pay so
as consequence it is doubtful if cleo
trio energy will be made available to
many potential consumers. Mr.. Ford
bHluho Tic BUREAU VI IbGCldildIlOH Ill
conjunction with the army engineers
can handle it more effectively but he
knows every reclamation development
has to be financed by approval of con-
gress and is subject to all the opposi-
ton the private power concerns can
muster to lobby for them. Mr. Ford
says he is not in league with private
power interests but it is difficult to
understand his attitude if such is the
case. The Missouri Valley has been
where it is quite some time and its
potential resources are not newly dis
covered; so why has nothing been
done?
The IVA proved that floods and
erosion can be controlled and the con-
ditions of the community improved by
Harvesting rivers but still we will

with SO per cent to members and the
balance to non-member farmer prod
ucers. The total volume of commodi-
ties distributed to non-farmers by the
co-ops reporting was only 15,762,000.
The extremely low percentage of
goods distributed by these exempt
farmer co-operatives to others than
farmers completely discredits all
claims by competing retail dealers
that, because of their tax-free status,
exempt farmer co-ops threaten to en-
gulf the entire distribution field.
The evidence plainly establishes
that if there is any basis for complaint
it is because the city merchant wants
to continue to further invade the farm
er's field and not because the farmer
is invading the town
