Super Atomic Bombs
By the Associoied Press

LOS ANGELES, July 20.-Gen.
H. H. Arnold. wartime chief of the
Army Air Forces, says he believes
any future blow against the United
States will come from across the
polar regions, not by way of the
seas"
Predicting future atomic bombs
may we'll be 1000 times as destruc-
tive" as those exploded over Japan,
Gen. Arnold in a press conference
yesterday countered an inquiry as
to whether the United States could
know If any other nation were Sc
cretly building atomic bombs with
this question: -r
Who knows what's going on deep
inside Russia?"
Later. in speech before the In
stitute of Aeronautical Sciences, he
predicted invasion of the strato-
sphere" by true space ships = =
capable of one or more trips around
the world"
You and I know that this is not
an idle fantasy" he told engineers
attending institute sessions on the
Los Angeles campus of the Univer-
sity of California. There Is a real
possibility of developing a rocket
propelled vehicle which will climb
above the atmosphere to such a
velocity that its centrifugal force
balances the attraction of gravity.
am told this velocity is of the
order of 26000 feet per second-but
five times that already attained by
the W. German rocket bombD."

1t chilean Dinner
Last EUening

A "foursome farewell" could have
been the name of the gay party 60
ing on last evening at the Chilean
Embassy when Senorita Gabriela
Mora. daughter of the Chilean Am
bassador and Sonora de Mora, was
hostess. 1t was an informal dinner
in honor of four attractive young
girls in the diplomatic set who will
be leaving Washington next week.
They are the twin daughters of the
Italian Ambassador and Signora
Tarchiani, Signorinas Dora and Le-
tizia Tarchiani; Mile. Jaime Brossin
de Saint-Didier, daughter of the

of the former Peruvian Military At
tache and Sonora de Sarmiento.

ters, who are crossing the ocean on
the same boat as the Saint-DidierS,
are going to France to finish their
studies at the Sorbonne University.
Mile. de Saint -Didier is returning
with her family to their permanent
home in France and Senorita Sar-
miento is going back to Lima, Peru,
with her family. All have had a
marvellous time here and none is too
enthusiastic about leaving our fair
city.
1t was a seated dinner last night,
with highly original place cards.
Instead of name on each card, the
hostess had written some amusing
phrase or quotation that could apply
to only one person on the party and
then. each guest had to find his
proper place. Needless to say, the
party got off with a bang. After
dinner every one danced in the air

Atom May Make
Lana Turner'S
Or'Bureuucr0ts'
BY the Assoeioied Press

The prospect of a world peopled
only by Lana Turner'S" and New
Deal bureaucrats" was held out to
the House yesterday by Represent
ative Glare Boothe Luce, Republican,
of Connecticut.
1t might be done with atomic
energy radioactive elements, the
blond Representative said in a
speech that had legislators rocking
with laughter.
She referred to an earlier sugges-
ton by Representative Judd. Repub-
lican, of Minnesota, that radioactive
elements might be used to trans
mute the species"
If the Atomic Energy Commission
decided to transmute the female of
the species, Mrs. Luce said, they
would make them all Lana Turner's.
AS for the males. she believed the
commission might hit on a creature
with "a very large head, one eye, an
ear bent permanently to receive a
telephone call, one hand with only
a thumb and forefnger so it can
sign checks and documents, no legs
and a very large bottom to sit in a
swivel chair"
In short, she concluded, it might
turn all the men into New Deal
bureaucrats.
