used. He said that in contrast to
the official report of 5000 dead
here from the atomic bomb, it
was generally believed that 100,-
600 already had died and that
100000 others were so severely
injured they were fated to die.
The damage at Hiroshima was
much greater than at Nagasaki
because there were no protecting
ridges. as at the latter target.
Il first saw a little spark and
then the great flash Dadai

Abusive Army
Officer Faces
RetributiOn

The old excuse of IL gotta
catch a train" didn't work for
an Army lieutenant yesterday
after he was stopped by Mount
Clemens police for going through
a red traffic light and speeding.
After being chased by a patrol
car the officer, stationed at
Bradley Field, Conn, told the
arresting police officers to give
him ticket because he was in
a hurry to catch a train and
would tear it up away.
Lieut.. Harvey Hammond and
Officer Albert Wright took the
lieutenant up on his dare and
gave him a ticket but before he
could complete his threat he
found himself lodged safety in
the Mount Clemens Jail.
However his unusual conduct
did not end there according %
the two officers and the lieuten-
ant became so abusive that they
had to call in the M. P.'s from
Seffridge Field.
He was locked in the guard
house for the night but the city
police retained the hope that
he would be prosecuted in a
local court.
Lieut.. Hammond said that the
army man, who lives In Sioux
Falls, South Dakota, was driving
al a high rate of speed along
North avenue and shot through
a red light at the Grand avenue
intersection. They finally stop
ped him at Kendrick.

mission.
S. Many emergency acts are
nearing expiration and Congress
must decide which to retain.
Prospects are the Second War
Powers Act, from which ration
ing and priorities stem, will be
kept on the statute books. Also
II appears that the Draft Act
will be permitted to run Its
natural course to next May Is.
SEE MAJOR FIGHT
There will be no legislative
business ready for either branch
before next week. In fact,
Speaker Rayburn (D-Texas)
said he doubted IL the House
could count on a majority be-
fore then.
A major fight is shaping up
over the draft law. Many mem
bers want all inductions stopped
at once. Representative Hoffman
Mich has announced he will
introduce a bill TO kill the draft
as soon as the House assemblies
at noon tomorrow.
But the House Military COM
mittee, some of whose members
were shouting for an end to the
draft only a few weeks ago, has
just about agreed to do nothing
about it for the time being. In
stead, the committee planned to
approve today a bill to encour-
age voluntary enlistments in the
hope that the Armed Forces by
that method could obtain
enough men to permit q reduc-
ton in draft calls.
Committee members are not
inclined to extend the draft In
any event beyond next May Is.
Thus far there has been no
sign of q bonus drive for serv-
ice men, but Congressional lead
ers are keeping their fingers
crossed.
Several bonus bills are known
to be in the offing, and with
the Congressional elections just
year away they could start a
hot Congressional fight.

The Japanese newspapermen
who had visited the city shortly
after the leveling told me that
The residents of Hiroshima "hate
you and think you the most
fiendish. cruel people on earth"
Hirokuni Dadai, chief of the
Police Prefecture, told us we
might be attacked, but we were
not. PEDESTRIANS and cyclists
started blankly but docilely as
cur party wandered for two
hours through the ruins, photo
graphing and staring in awe at
the damage done by a single
bomb.
WIPED CLEAN
There are no stores whatever
in the downtown area, and in the
heart of the city the people we
saw were just passing through"
mostly on the way to the bank
counters.
The news of the bombing was
withheld at first from the peo-
pie of Japan, the newsmen told
us, because the destruction was
so great that it was feared much
criticism would arise from the
lack of protection. Only one ar
raid shelter in the entire city
escaped the attack. That was all

The japanese second army
headquarters was wiped out,
however, and a number of gen.

to telephone the news of the
atomic bombing to Tokyo on
Aug. 6 and then assisted in aid
ing the wounded, said I'VE ex-

GRIM TOLL
The death toll now has mount
ed past $4,000, with many only
slightly wounded dying from no
apparent cause.
Two English-speaking guides
accompanied us on the tour. One
said he was a former resident OF
Sacramento, Calf, and the 9TH
err was a physician who said his
brother formerly was a member
of the Japanese emassy staff in
Washington, D. c.
The physician said any Of the
survivors who had beeen shock
&c by the atomic bomb were in
danger. That even slight
scratches or burns became in
fected, induced fevers and botn
internal and external bleeding
and many died Of apparently
minor burns.
No counteragents for any OF
the atomic bomb after symptoms
have been discovered, he said.
JAP HATRED
Despite the warning that we
were hated in the town, one
bearded old man came up and
volunteered the information to
our interpreters that his family
had been killed in the atomic
raid, but, he added, he was a
Christian and shook hands with
each of us.
The death toll of Hiroshima
was so great, the japanese news
men explained, because the lone
BIO carrying the worlds most
lethal load caught the people
completely by surprise. Accus-
toned to seeing 100-plane raids
and larger, they paid scant at
tention to the lone bomber. An
air raid warning was sounded
but was followed by an all clear
signal, so that most people were
outside.
Then as the superfortress how
cred seconds overhead and turn

falling, suspended by two para
chutes.
At an altitude of between
1000 and 1900 feet, it exploded
with a brilliant, binding flash.
