bought with the old pre-war aban-
don. But manufacturers them
selves sav no TO this thought.
Some say that even If fun tire pro-

Spain Would Demand Inquir,
By Friendly u. N. Power

MADRID, April % LP).-Authori-
tative Spanish sources said yesterday
that Spain would present her case
to the United Nations Security
Council only through friendly
member of U. N. if an Australian
proposal to send an investigating
committee to this country is adopted
A Foreign ONCE spokesman said
no official comment could be ex-
pected until after the Security
Council votes. Foreign Minister Al
berto Martin Artajo is expected to
return today from Bilbao to await
developments in New York.
The Spanish Ambassador in
Washington was repeatedly not en-
powered by Madrid to appear be-
fore the Security Council. 1t was
pointed out that the Potsdam Dec
laration specifically excluded Gen.
eralissimo Frances Spain from the
U. N.
The Spanish informant said that
the most likely action by Spain if
invited to present her case to a
U. N. subcommittee would be to
ask some friendly member such as
Brazil to protect her interests. This
procedure would be similar to that

matte relations with another power

Mr.. Stone had been described as
blending a genial disposition and an
almost homespun quality with a
sharpness of intellect and a high
consciousness of the dignity and re-
sponsibility of his Office. He began
his days early, usually at $50 or 7
with a 45-minute walk His prin-
cipal diversion and vacation relaxa-
ton was fishing, but he never made
himself out to be a sportsman.
On the bench he made an i'm
pressive and sometimes stern ap-
pearance But he had a twinkling
eye, pleasing grin and an uhruly
lock of hair which often fell over
his forehead. When lawyers before
the court stayed on the point at

questioner He reserved his rebukes
for counsel who resorted to evasions

A-Bomb TestIs Called
Biggest Experiment
Devised by Science !.

The atomic bomb tests at Bikini
Island this summer will be the most
elaborate scientific experiments ever
devised by man, according to DR.. r.
A. Sawyer, technical director of
Operation Crossroads.
DR.. Sawyer told a group of sci
ence writer's at a conference at the
Navy Department today that virtu-
ally all fields of research will be
represented by force of more than
1000 scientists and technical as
slstants drawn from the armed ser
wees, many branches of the Federal
Government, and from leading COL
leges and industrial laboratories.
DR.. Sawyer, it was announced. will
head nine divisions of the Joint
Task Force-bomb operation; blast.
pressure, shock; wave motion, ocean
ography; electromagnetic propaga-
ton, electronics; Pathological safety;
radiometry; radiation; remote mea-
surements, and technical photogra-
ply.
The technical director of the ex-,
pedition took occasion to deny
charges that the tests will develop
little information of practical i'm
portance in addition to that already
learned from the first three atomic
explosions.
AS an example, he pointed out,
there is no known means of calcu-
lating exactly what will happen to
warships of various sizes when sub
jected to pressures like 100 pounds
a square inch over their whole sur
face. The development of atomic
weapons, he said. makes it essential
70 national security that our armed
services have exact answers to such
questions based on practical expert
ence.
Another mysterious force to be
investigated at Bikini, according to
Rear Admiral w. S. Parsons, deputy
task force commander. is the shock
wave seen by airmen who dropped
the devastating bomb on Negasaki
last August. The outer rim of this
wave appeared to the airmen like
vast soap bubble expanding with
Incredible rapidity in perfect
spherical shape around the center
of the explosion.
A side light at the conference was
announcement by Admiral Parsons
that the atomic bomb has been
misnamed. because it has little rela-
ton to the atom" The admiral
suggested more exact designa-
ton would be "nuclear fssion"
