Second A-Bomb
Had MoreP Punch
The One That Hit Nagasaki
Easier to Build, Makes
First Obsolete.

GUAM. - Brig. Gen. Thomas A..
Farrell, commander of atomic bomb
operations in the Pacific, told the
Associated Press, that the A-bomb
which struck Nagasaki packed more
punch than the first one dropped
on Hiroshima.
Farrell said the second bomb not
only was more potent, but made OBJ
solete the No. l parcel of death, and
was less difficult to construct.
The strategic air forces an
nounced that 80 per cent of Maya
saki had been destroyed.
Maj. Charles w. Sweeney, pilot of
the big superfortress which ar
ried out the attack, said:
THE turbulence from the blast at
Nagasaki was greater than at Hiro-
Shima."
Bomb Made Crater.
The reconnaissance photographs
showed that destruction at Hiro-
shima was greater, however. Cen
eral Spaatz' strategic command
said 60 per cent of Hiroshima was
destroyed. Farrell did not elaborate
on the increased potency of the
bomb or its manufacture, size, or
weight, nor or the comparative de-
struction handed the two cities.
Post-bombing pictures of Maya
saki showed a great crater where
the bomb struck. No crater ap-
peared in the Hiroshima photo
graphs. The Japanese claimed both
missiles were dropepd by parachute
and that the Hiroshima bomb eX-
ploded before it struck the ground.
Spaatz suggested that the geogra-
ply and topography of the two cities
would have a bearing or the results
of the bombs.
Much of Nagasaki's war facilities
shipping, aircraft and steel indus
tries, rail, naval and other vital in
stallations - were either completely
wrecked or heavily damaged.
Wrecks Steel Plant.
The Tokyo radio issued contrast
ing reports. One said the damage
was Slight" the other that damage
was extensive, with many lives lost.
Spaatz said the area of destruc-
ton in the built-up area ranged on
both sides of the Urakami river for
a distance of two miles, with a max
imum width of seven-tenths of a
mile. Included was the great Mitsu-
bishi steel plant, which produced
200, 900 tons of finished steel prod
ucts each year and was a source of
naval torpedoes, and the Mitsubishi-
Urakami ordnance plant, which
turned out 1890 aerial torpedoes an
Scientists who were responsible
for the manufacture of the bombs
and the crews of the BIOS that
dropped them agreed that the feat
was almost beyond their magma
81 knew ahead of time-ever
since last fall-what I had to do"
said Maj. Thomas w. Ferebee of
M~ocksville, N. c., bombardier in the
.-29 which dropped the first bomb.
Il felt a tremendous responsibility
and I knew I must not fail. Right
IN the target 1 let the atomic bomb
90, and to say l was very relieved
when it was gone is putting it
mildly"
Scientists were elated at the sue
less of the bombing.

Sleeping Sickness

Mosquitoes are the main source
of transmission of sleeping sickness
from horse to horse, although
some other insects can carry the in
lection. There is a difference in the
virus causing the disease in
the eastern and western parts of the
country. Salt water mosquitoes are
capable OF carrying the eastern dis
ease, whereas fresh water mosqui-
tos do not transmit it. With the west
ern disease, the reverse is true;
fresh water mosquitoes transmit the
virus and salt water mosquitoes can
not do so.

Rob Ukraine of
Rare Treasures
Germans Looted Academy OF
Science, Then Wrecked
1t, Official Says.

NEW YORK. - Organized looting
on an intensive scale by Nazi van
dals of scientific institutions, art mu-
seums, medical colleges and other
centers of culture throughout occu-
pied Russia preluded the destruction
of the buildings themselves.
Prof. Peter Pogrebuyac, secre-
tary of the Ukrainian Academy of
Sciences, gives in a Russian infor-
nation bulletin some details of what
happened there. He writes:
From the Institute of Geology, the
Germans removed the skeleton OF
a mammoth elephant, the only COM
plete skeleton of this particular
species in the world skeletons OF
this species are ordinarily assem-
bled from the bones of several ami
mals).
They also carried off the skeleton
of a cave bear, the only copy OF a
photographic map of pre-Cambrian
Ukraine, and pictorial representa-,
tons of geological scene drawn by
such great Ukrainian painters as
1zhakevich, etc.
They stole archaeological collec-
tions which cannot be duplicated,
and materials on vertebrates gath
cred over a period of dozens of
years. They took away the largest
meteorites, and collections of
Ukrainian topazes and precious
stones, as we'll as the institutes
library of 100, 900 volumes.
Took los $50 Plants.
From the Institute of Botany the
Germans carried off herbariums
containing 105, $50 plants represent
ing the flora of the southwest
USSR, which were collected by Rus
sian and Ukrainian botanists over a
period of more than 100 years.
All the academy's institutes of
technics were plundered, as well as
the Institutes of Zoology and Archie
ology, and the Shevchenko Institute
of Literature.
Millions of books were carried
away from the central library of the
Academy of Sciences, among them
many priceless volumes.
The plundering of the academy's
property was in the main the work
of experienced thieves.
Moreover, we know the names of
the vandals. They include Professor
Sommer, zoo technician; Professor
Walther, geobotanist, and the letters
and sonderfuehrers of the German
administration. Professors Manns-
field and Benzing were particularly
active as robbers of academy prop
erty.
Loot Found in Reich.
On January "a of this year, Com
mander Pushkarevich found prop
erty belonging to the academy in
the village of Neudorf, five kilo-
meters from the city of Nazdra, and
in Poznan, including the seed
herbarium and laboratory equip
ment. Pushkarevich also informed
the academy that their property had
been discovered in the city of Milo
slavov, 10 kilometers from Neudorf.
Georgi Karpenko, secretary of the
technical sciences section, recently
made a trip to Pomerania. In a
landlords house in the village of
Grabow near the city of Steinberg
he found over 10000 volumes on
geography and ethnology belonging
to the Academy of Sciences. On the
same day, he discovered a consid-
cradle number of books bearing the
stamp of Kiev university and the
Odessa and Kharkov libraries.
Maj. Mikhail Strokov discovered
property of the Institute of Zoology
and the Psychological museum of
the Ukrainian academy in the fort
ress city of HeilsDerg, East Prus-
STA.

shop they may only purchase ice
cream cones to take out. Other
charges are:
Negro soldiers are discouraged
from using the main post theater
which is a modern, air-conditioned
building seating 1900 persons; a
small 400 seat auditorium on a
segregated basis is the only place
they can use for viewing motion
pictures; theater No. which seats
nearly LOO persons is entirely
closed to them.
The only service club available to
the 5000 Negro troops is a small
building inconveniently located in
the woods. After a two-year delay
cafeteria facilities were finally OBJ
tanned last year. These facilities
were in operation for one month
when the PIX which obtained con-
troll of service club sales on food
and drinks closed it. AS the PIX
does not serve Negro soldiers,
soft drinks have been available to
these men only through machines.
Negro soldiers are not allowed
to ride in the camps all-white bus

been forcibly elected from them.
The bus system set up for Negroes
uses a different route from the reg
ular bus line, and, while white
buses run every twenty minutes,
Negro buses are not able to keep
even an hourly schedule. They
may not use the main bus station.
In post headquarters there are
separate sanitary facilities for Ne
groes and whites.
The NAACP requested an i'm
mediate investigation and a cor
rection Of the conditions.

laughed and joked among them
selves. They were QUILTED in
American clothes, and were served
the same diet as American troops,
only the food was rationed as
prison fare.

Red Cross Worker Saw
Rajah's Home AS Stage
While in India Service

Miss Revoida Wright is in st.
Paul, visiting her aunt and uncle,
Mr.. and Mrs. ]. A. Smith, 1858 st.
Anthony Avenue, while she awaits
reassignment. Miss Wright spent
most of her ten months service in
recreation work with the American
Red Cross in Calcutta, India, where
she worked with the veterans of the
Lido and Burma roads.
The recreation work was on the
order of USO club activities, but
more extensive. There were out
door club programs consisting of
sightseeing trips, swimming and
bicycle riding. The boys had a
choice of what they wanted to do.
The evening program was planned
so that veterans endowed with
talent, such as singers, dancers, or
character actors, could furnish the
entertainment. The birthday par
ties were given every month, and
each month one of the men was
given the opportunity of being guest
of honor, depending upon the month
in which his birthday fell. The eve
nings were enjoyable occasions,
with birthday cakes, tokens pre-
scented to the honoree, and dancing
to the music of an orchestra.
The lawn parties were given at
a former Rajah's home, with the
porch serving as a stage. The car
nival offered much in the line of
entertainment, and featured an In
dian magician, bingo, and a lady
fortune-teller.
Miss Wright says the work was
interesting, and just as enjoyable
to her as to the veterans. She plans
to study on the side, resuming her
music and language wherever and
when she is replaced.-E. C.

Ask Removal from
Schools Of Little
Sunbo" Books

NEW YORK - The featured
appearance in a New York news
paper of a photograph showing a
child in a New York City Public
School, in a predominantly Chinese
neighborhood, reading Little
Black Sambo" to classmates and
visitors, has renewed the campaign
for an investigation and correction
of New York City's text books.
The National Negro Congress, in
a letter to Mrs. Mary Dillon, presi-
dent of the Board of Education, re-
quests assurance that "the offensive
book" and others which it typifies
will be removed from our schools,
so that the situation depicted in
the photograph mentioned will not
be repeated"
