No Post-B|ast DAMAGE
Found at Hiroshima
BY the Associoted Press

TOKYO, Mar. 25. The top
scientist studying Hiroshima said
today the atomic bomb has not
damaged that Japanese city since
the split second in which it burst.
DR.. Philip S. Owen of Washing
ton said the long study by the
Atomic Bomb Casualty Survey
Commission disclosed no residual
oactivity." He termed false the
speculation that the area would be
deadly for possibly 80 years. gsa,
DR.. Owen Is executive director of
the commission. The scientists are
studying residents of Hiroshima and
those of nearby Kure, for compar-
ison.
He told the Associated Press it
"is eight years too soon" to say
whether the bomb caused hered-
itary, changes. But he emphasized
that, if there are any, they would
result from the split second of the
biast-pot from subsequent atomic
action.
He shrugged away previously
published reports of luxuriant plant
growth, curiously twisted vegetables
and twin onions.
"We haven't found any such

Durkin, president of the left-wing
CIO United Of1ice and Professional
Workers of America, today asked the
national CIO to re-examine its posi-
tion on the European Recovery Pro-
gram and international affairs be-
cause of recent developments.
In letter to CIO President Philip

present policies OF our administra-

ing ERP as now advanced, the draft,
the betrayal Of Palestine, and other
measures working people face
privation, distress, insecurity and the
terrible catastrophe Of war"

Ruling on Religious Study
In Schools Called Big Issue
By the Associated Press

A recent Supreme Court ruling
on religious teaching in public
schools presents a major issue-"the
State versus the rest of man." Rep
resentative Meyer, Republican, Of
Kansas said today.
In statement, he said several
Representatives voiced recently "the
mounting feeling of resentment Of
the House when they spoke on the
decision"
This ruling, he said, held in ef-
feet that "nonsectarian religious
teaching in the public school vio-
lates the constitutional rights OF an
atheist and therefore cannot be
conducted in such schools"
This decision shocked, and
rightly so, all God-fearing people ir
America and made them wonder
just why and how the courts made
its findings at a time when com.
munism is conducting a vicious at.
tack upon religion and religious
institutions everywhere, he said.
1--WE can only wonder too, what
is coming next if the Supreme Court
stands in the way of religious in.
struction in a public school wher
it is by no means compulsory"

Rail Union Group Calls
Wallace Menace 10 Labor
Bx ,he Associated Press

Railway labor's Political League
yesterday described Henry A. Wal
lace and his third-party associates
as "a menace to everything Amer
lean labor holds dear"
The league was set up by 10 rail-
way brotherhoods with approx
mately 100000 members. 1t said
in a statement:
Wallace and his Communist as
sociates are asking the workers OF
America to assist in cutting their
own throats.
I'VE have in mind the declara-
ton by Wallace and his Red ad-
visers that they will not support
any candidate for Congress. how
ever good his record may be, if he
dares to vote for the Marshall Plan,
Nov It happens that all branches
of organized labor have Endorsed
that plan and that the majority OF
the members of both parties in
House and Senate are in favor of it. ;
The statement said Mr.. Wallace's
hackers call him "a great liberal,
but it said he never did anything
in particular for working men and
did so little for farmers "that he
failed to carry his home State OF
Iowa in 194o." Mr.. Wallace was
elected Vice President In 1910.

If the Government gets injunc-

requireds so days later, to conduct

lander, 10, daughter Of the Right
Rev. Henry Yates Satterlee, first
Bishop of Washington, died in al
New York hotel yesterday after a
long illness.
She came to Washington with her
father in 1895 and was closely as
sociated with his work until his
death in 1908, when she continued

$4,000 Tree
FeHed to Permit
Airport Approach
BY the Assoeiaisd Press

CLEVELAND, Mar. 25.-The 49,
600 tree" which for months has
blocked installation of a bad
weather instrument landing system
at Cleveland airport, was no more
today.
Workmen felled the 40-foot elm
yesterday after negotiations finally
were completed for purchase of the
tree, six acres Of land and a 100
year-old house for $29, 1000.
The city wanted the tree cut
down because it was too close to the
glide path to be used in the blind
landing system.
Karl Olson, owner of the prop
erty, planted the elm in a school
Arbor Day program At years ago
and couldn't see having 1t chopped
down. The city thought his $29,-
600 sale price was too high.
Under the terms finally agreed on,
Mr.. Olson and his family can con-
tinue to live rent free in the three
family dwelling until September.
The tree scarcely touched the
ground before Airport Manager
John Berry dispatched a wire no.
tifying the Civil Aeronautics Ad-
ministration the final obstacle to
authorization Of the new system had
