Chance Of Tidal Wave
Al Bikini Discounted
By the Associated Pres.

PEARL HARBOR. April "a
Navy physicist yesterday said the
atomic bomb can't compete with an
earthquake and there is little chance
the atom test at Bikini Atoll in July
would create tidal wave with any
great destructive force.
Norman J. Hotter of Helena
Mont, civilian head of the wave
measurement section of the joint
Army-Navy task force which will
conduct the experiment. said the
atomic explosion would be far less
energetic than the submarine dis
turbance which sent giant waves
smashing into thousands of miles of
Pacific shorelines.
The atomic bomb does not pos
sess sufficient energy to compete
with such an earthquake Mr.. Hol-
ter explained, and any waves pro-
duced by its explosion are not likely
to be detachable outside a limited
area surrounding the test site, ex-
cept by sensitive instruments"
Mondays giant upheaval gave
physicists chance to observe the
effects of waves on the Oahu coast.

Patterson in Draft Plea
Sees Continuance of
Emergency Until '48
BY the Assoeioted Pres,

Secretary of War Patterson
told Senators today the present
world emergency" will last
through 1947 and urged a years
extension of selective service be-
yond May Is.
His appeal was backed up by
Secretary of the Navy Forrestal, who
told the Senate Military Affairs
Committee we cannot be unmindful
OF the facts that the world is not
at peace"
The committee is hearing final
arguments for extension Of the draft
before voting on the question next
Tuesday. On the other side of the
Capitol, the House Military Affairs
Committee called IN opponents of
consumption to testify prior to yot-
ing Friday.
Mr.. Patterson presented huge
charts listing both current RESPONSE
blllties" of the Army and "assump-
tlons" for the period until January
l. l948, and asserted the only way
the Army can obtain needed man.
power is through a one-year ex-
tension of the draft.
Both Secretaries Forrestal and
Patterson said they much preferred
volunteer forces. The Navy Secre-
tary said his department expected
to attain postwar strength of ap-
proXimately 100000 through volun-
teers. but added no one could be
certain of this unless selectiVe serv-
Ice is extended.
Mr.. Patterson asserted that unless
the draft law is renewed the Army
will have a steadily increasing
deficit from October, 1916. which
we will never be able to make up
Spokesman for the American
Federation Of Labor, the National
Grange and the Womens Christian
Temperance Union were listed as
witnesses by the House group. To-
morrow it plans to hear additional
opposition witnesses and then close
its hearings.
Originally scheduled to vote yes
terday, the House committee de-
clded on two more days of hearings
in response to complaints Of some
members that the legislation was
being "railroaded" without hearing
the opposition.
When it starts voting Friday in
closed session, the committee is eX-
pected to recommend a compromise
calling for an extension of the law
probably until next March /.
