Army Appoints Board
To Study U. 5. Defense
AGAINST Mass War
BY the Assoeiated press

Il
The armed forces, alarmed at ths
frightful lessons learned in the atom
shattered cities of Japan and in the
Bikini tests, have set experts to work
on defense plans for American cities
and fighting men.
The Army disclosed in cryptic
announcement yesterday creation Of
q board of five generals. with an
advisory group of other officers, "te
study the question of civil defense
for the United States insofar as IL
pertains to War Department partici-
patton in this essential part of ma
tional defense planning" The board
will work with outstanding civilian
authorities.
The boards president is Maj. Gen
Harold r. Bull, chief OF operations
for Gen. Eisenhower when he COM
manded the European theater.
Studies Outlined.
The Navy, meanwhile, has ap-
bointed a director of atomic de,
fense," Rear Admiral William S.
Parsons, physicist and technical
chief for the joint Army-Nayy Task
, Force at the Bikini atomic bomb
experiments.
The studies of the Army board,
1t Is understood. are directed not
only at anti-atom bomb measures
but any other methods of modern
mass destruction, including bac-
THEOLOGICAL warfare. One official
explained that procedure must be
perfected to prevent chaotic condi-
tions, such as occurred in Hiro-
shima, from arising out of any form
of enemy attack. Such conditions
could be exploited militarily by an
attacker.
Those discussing the survey en-
phasized that it should be viewed
only as spadework, the presenta-
ton of problems to be expected,
with some recommendations for
meeting them.
Navy Must Protect Ships.
The Navy, with a mission some
what different than the Armys,
centers its major interest on pro-
lection of its own ships and shore
installations. However, Admiral
Parsons, who has worked on the
atomic bomb project since its incep-
ton, Is also directly interested in
civilian protection against the
weapon.
Coordination of studies by the
two departments presumably Is
maintained through several agen-
cies, including the Joint Chiefs OF
Staff and the Joint Army-Navy
Liaison Committee appointed as an
advisory group for the new atomic
bomb commission.
Both Admiral Parsons and War
Department planners bear in nina
the dictum of scientists that there
Is no defense against the atomic
bomb" But they agreed today, In
talking to a reporter, that there are
three possibilities:
1. A workable agreement on in
ternational control which would out
law the bomb from the worlds
arsenals.
2. Positive defense this
means only counterattack with atom
bombs and rockets and whatever
new weapons are available. The
United States must make ready now
for this form of defense by provid-
ing the material, training the men
and maintaining an adequate In
telligence system to warn of attack.
8. Passive defense-the prepara-
ton of vast underground installa-
tions, machinery for evacuation or
DISPERSION of populations and in
dustry, thorough indoctrination on
what to expect in an atom bomb at
tack, including deadly radioactivity.

Montgomery Is K Old
In I'd by Mouzon, 10
BY the Associoted Press

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 20.-Box-
ing Promoter Herman Taylor has
come up with another $3.50 beauty
In 19-year-old Wesley Mouzon.
Mouzon leaped into the forefront
as lightweight contender last night
by knocking out Champion Bob
Montgomery in the second round OF
a nontitle Philadelphia natural
before 1859 who contributed to a
gross gate of S60,794.
Montgomery, whose title is rec
ognized in New York and Pennsyl-
vania, but not by the MIA, was
stunned by Mouzon right cross
soon after the sec0d round opened
AS the 2e-year-old champion sagged
against the ropes Mouzon hesitateo
a second, then rained a hail of blows
on Montgomery. Bob slowly sani
to the canvas and was counted Out
in 1:49 of the round.
Mouzon was $50 premilinary
scrapper two years ago when Taylor
saw his possibilities and began tt
help develop him. Mouzon is man
aged by Montgomery's brother Tom
The champion, 5-to-11 favorit,
and like Mouzon weighing 10
pounds, offered no alibi.
Il guess should have zigged in
stead of Jagged" he commented.

Speed Record for Lanham
Looms in Racing tonight

Mike Josephs and the top-notch
drivers racing against him in the
West Lanham Speedway midget
auto spins tonight are confident
that the 25-lap feature will produce
a speed record for the Maryland
oval.
Josephs came close to establishing
new mark last week when he
dragged down the purse in the fea-
ture and he has tuned his doodle
bug to perfection for tonight's at
tempt.
Pushing him in the scramble will
be such stars as Wild Bill Holmes
Dutch Schaefer, George Ponder. a
three time winner at Lanham. and
Charley Miller, runnerup last week
