 It could result in world government-run by an aggressor who struck fast and hard enough.

Urey, Nobel prize winner and leading figure in atomic bomb development thinks this could happen, but he says unless extreme dispersal has been lished, the President with his Cabinet and Congress will presumably be destroyed together with the heart of industry and transport So he's inclined to believe the battle would langush people hunt for open spaces and food.

OUR ATOMIC FUTURE


composite estimate Of Slice Of the 1uture including atomic war, may be assumed from the testimony ot group Of men which presented to the Senate Atom ic Energy Committee.
 Effects of the present type of atomic weapon, ex- ploded in the air, generally known. If our next enemy set off within few miles of you, you could be killed either by the initial blast by the 1000-nile perhour winds which result, by the scorching heat, by radoactivity which exists at the moment of ploson.
 If the bombs are embodied in missiles which pene- we'll underground they will produce quite differ ent results. Expires who have studied the question anticipate an earth blast-a ground shake-there is doubt that it would have great military mportance
 The Navy has announced that it will make tests of the effect of atomic bombing ships at Sci entists know the rough answer already. An atomic bomb will be destructive under water than in the air; single depth bomb could sink fleet disposed the American at Pearl HarbOr
 But atomic technology will not stand still Dr. Irving Langmuir, a Nobel prize winner and General Electric research executive, contends that five 10 15 years hence it is almost certain that will have atomic bombs thousand times powerful as those that exist, by means that are now undiscovered.
 Or, if no powerful weapon is achieved, far cheaper of constructing them could be found. Then, he suggests enemy could deliver 100000 of them to America-enough to treat every square mile in the U. s. the way Hiroshima was" There would then be value in dispersal chance of retaliation Not 60 percent of the American population would be left.
 The experts working toward such bigger and better explosives now, says Major General Groves, chief of the Manhattan project.
 The United States, being democracy, is poorly or ganized to initiate blitz war. The aggressor will have brilliant advantage in the next conflict mat ter how large stockpile of atomic bombs his victim may have on hand. If small proportion of atomic weapons gets through defenders barriers the des- tructon will be sufficient.
 At the present moment every imaginable effort is engaged in the problem of ntercepting panes rock ets missiles, says Dr. J. R. Oppenheimer, the who headed the Los Alamos laboratory am that progress will be made along these ines-ths problem may be solved"
 Surely if atomic bombs are made, it will be no great trick to deliver them Pioted and pilotless planes being improved. Work is being done on hgh-angle rockets of the German V2 type, and they may eventually be powered by atomic energy released gradually instead of explosively.

 Surplus Property Discount
 Boy and Girl Scout organiza- tions in the Terriotry may ob- tain surplus property at 40 per cent discount from flair value" according to ruling recently H- sued classifying these groups as educational. Regulations formu- lated under the Surplus Property Act had previously listed pubS lie health and educational institu- tions as eligible for the preferen- tial discount.
 Other non-profit tax-exempt in- stitutions and organizations, such as private and public welfare groups, volunteer fire companies and orphanages may purchase surplus war property on pre- { ference basis at flair value" | which is a price not greater than the lowest price at which the same or similar merchandise is being offered in commercial chan nels at the time of sale and, gen erally, is equivalent to the price wholesaler would pay a manu- facturer. Insofar as welfare or ganizations and institutions pro- vide, as an integral part of their programs, essential m d c l training, rehabilitation or .nurS- ing services, they may also be eli gible for the 40 per cent discount.

Are paintings which portray nude
women in the presence OF st.
Anthony sacrilegious?
No answer to this question will
be offered here, but Washingtonians
can decide for themselves by visiting
the Crosby Gallery Of Modern Art,

of II modern paintings having as
their theme Temptations Of st.

from to s pm. daily, except Sun
days, through October "a. The gal

The sponsors now can pass the
word with ill-concealed glee that
the paintings bear the ''banned-in-

from the Copley Society, which was
to have shown the pictures in Bos-
