Peace Stocks Favored
In Uneven Market;
Dealings Active
BY the Associoied Press

NEW YORK, Sept. 18.-Traders
showed a preference for so-called
peace stocks in today's market.
Radio -television issues in par
ticular were highly popular for a
while and some advanced a little
more than 81 share.
Higher prices were also paid for
auto, liquor. utility and chemical
shares. Most advances were be-
low 81 a share.
Oils, rubbers and airlines, on
the other hand, found the going
a little rough.
A rush of buying hit the mar
ket at the opening. and the gen.
eral price level, as measured by
the Associated Press average of
go stocks. surged ahead to a new
four-year high. Almost immedi-
ately opposition developed and
gains were cut back or eliminated.
Even the TVS turned out to be
vulnerable.
After early orders were exc
cuted the market tended to settle
into a narrow price rut. Trading
volume. however, was maintained
at high rate.
Issues marked up included Ad-
miral Corp, Emerson Radio,
Philco. Zenith, Motorola, General
Motors, Chrysler, Schenley, Ma
tional Distillers, Dow Chemical,
du Pont, American Telephone
Consolidated Natural Gas, United
States Gypsum, Johns -Manville
and General Electric.
Among the balky spots were
Goodrich. Goodyear, Standard Oil
New Jersey, Shell Oil, Boeing,
American Woolen, Southern Rail-
way and United Air Lines.
Corporate bonds showed only
minor variations. United States
Government issues held steady In
over -the-counter dealings.

Atom Expert Fears Congress
Faces ObIiterdtion by H-Bon1b

Congress had better move out
of the Capitol if it wants to escape
obliteration by an H-bomb, an
atomic scientist said last night.
To avoid leaving all the legis-
lators in one place, he suggested
the Senate could meet in Alex
andria and the House in Bethesda.
DR.. Ralph E. Lapp. former head
of the Navy's Nuclear Physics
Branch, also told a Philosophical
Society meeting at the Cosmos
Club that the Navy Department
should be moved off the Mall
and the Pentagon cleaned out"
Expects Is million Casualties.
There is certainly no need to
have the Navy Department in
Washington" he declared. Nor
do many branches of the Army
and Air Force have to crowd into
the Pentagon."
The speaker, now a writer and
consultant on nuclear physics, as
serted that the country could ex-
pect to lose" 10 to Is million
people in the first day of an H
bomb "superblitz." Therefore, he
said, it is most important to
avoid the concentration of key
individuals" in one locality.
He also urged Nationwide
dispersal of critical" industry, a
clamp down on further expansion
of major cities, and the issuance
of complete prospectus on H
bomb effects which would enable
citizens to defend themselves.
DR.. Lapp gave his own ''prospec-
tus," stating it was based on data
on the atom bomb, the law OF
physics, and simple mathematics" ."
The H-bomb, he said, will be a
super -incendiary" emitting 100
times the infra-red, visible and
ultra violet rays of the Nagasaki-
type A-bomb, and causing "ex-
tensive fire damage"
Estimates Vast Pressures.
Describing a hypothetical H
bomb blast. he said it would level
buildings over an area of about 100
square miles and scar larger
area of up to 400 square miles.
The blast. pressure directly under
the detonation would be about 80
tons per square foot, he estimated
and about 800 pounds per square
foot four miles away. The latter
he said, is enough to collapse
frame buildings.
when an H-bomb is detonated,
one may expect that any person
standing in the open at distance
of 10 miles from the point of the
explosion will be exposed to seri-
GUS flash burns. Persons much
closer to the explosion would un-
dergo virtual incineration and be
unidentif1able after the disaster, "
he declared.
"An H-bomb properly detonated

over the Kremlin. DR.. Lapp said,
would wipe one to two million
people, injure a like number, and
level the central districts within
the city"
Americas cities, he pointed out,
are more densely populated than
Moscow and thus more compati-
BILE targets.
Sees Only Interim Security.
Our possession of the H-bomb,
if we get it sooner than the enemy,
will give us only an interim secur-
ity. Once Russia also has the
H-bomb the advantage swings to
that nation" the speaker warned,
explaining that as democracy
I'VE would not strike first"
DR.. Lapp urged spending 'even
a billion dollars" on improving
the Nations intelligence service
in order to find out enemy capa-
pility in advance of an attack.

Mccarthy "Can
 Produce Witness" LattilnOre Was Red

WASHINGTON, (PO - Senator McCarthy's fresh barrage of "Sov- jet agent" charges against Owen Lattimore - accusations which Lattimore promptly termed lies created a new headache today for Senate investigators.
 Mccarthy, Wisconsin Republi- can, told the Senate in a 412-hour speech yesterday that he can pro- duce a mystery witness who will swear that Lattimore, an Amerl- can expert of Far Eastern affairs, was a member of the communist party.
 Mccarthy also waved docu- ments which he said prove that Lattimore is a Soviet agent who received instructions in Moscow as far back as 1886. He previously had called Lattimore Russia's top spy in the state department and the United States.
 In the Senate yesterday, Me Carthy coupled his attack on Lat timore with new assault against U. s. ambassador -at-large Philip Jessup. He described Jessup as "a very willing stooge" for Latti- more.
 Jessup already has denied Me Carthy's charge that he has an unusual affinity for communist causes" In doing so the ambassa-

New York Will Be First Atom Target

NEWARK, N. J. (P)-Lt. Gen. Leslie R. Groves says he thinks an atom bomb attack on New York city wont happen for many years, if at all"
 But the wartime head of the Manhattan Catom bomb project said if war comes, New York would be one of the first targets and the attack would touch off the greatest panic in the history of the world"
 Groves painted a frightening picture of a possible atom bomb ing of New York this week at an atomic energy week program in the Newark Evening News audi torium.
 He predicted a tremendous rush of bomb survivors to New Jersey.
 "They'll choose New York for prestige purposes. And they'll probably dump seven or eight atom bombs or one of two hydro gen bombs on the city. There will be complete destruction of the waterfront on both the New York and New Jersey sides" Groves said.

COP Senators Strike Back Al President Truman

WASHINGTON (P)-Three Re- publicans struck back angrily to- day at President Truman's asser- ton that their attacks are sabOtag- ing American foreign policy and aiding the Kremlin.
 MT. Truman told a Key West, Fla, news conference yesterday that he was fed up with criticism of the state department by Sena- tors Mccarthy R.-WisO, Bridges R. N. H. and Wherry R.-Neb0. He added, for direct quotation:
 "The greatest asset that the Kremlin has is the partisan at tempt in the Senate to sabotage the bipartisan foreign policy of the United States"
 Mccarthy said he would be glad to plead guilty to sabotaging the administrators Far Eastern policies, adding that "they could n't be any WorSe-our batting aV- craze is zero"
 If someone can disrupt the plans for returning the rest of the East over to Russia, it would be a good thing" he told reporters. q wish somebody had sabOtaged that policy earlier"
 Bridges bristled that the only thing he is trying to do is ito sa- bOtage some of the subversives and security risks so that they will be thrown out of key posts in the government"
 The New Hampshire Senator told the Senate earlier in the week that a master spy" must have crammed the state depart ment with bad security risks. Wherry, the COP floor leader who has criticized secretary of state Acheson, challenged the President to open the FBI and other loyalty files to Senate for

Republicans Elect Lathrop Chairman; Adopt Platform

Continued from Page One) l6-year span in which the party has been split violently into White" and anti White" fac tions, which generally have held separate conventions and some times have sent rival delegations to the national party convention.
 JUNEAU, (P) - Republicans want statehood for Alaska, but not under the enabling act now being considered by Congress,
 Opposition to the present state hood bill was contained in the party platform adopted at yester- days closing session of the COPS Territorial convention.
 In it, the party "deplores the obvious inadequack of HR 33l (the Bartlett statehood bilD in that it fails to specify the respective rights and privileges and the re- spective duties and obligations of the federal government and the proposed State of Alaska"
 There were only two dissenting votes to the blanks adoption.
 Principal opposition to the pres ent bill hinged on the desire for more specific language concern ing what would happen under statehood to reservations and properties now held by the gov ernment.
 Other points of the platform in cluded:
 1. Opposition to reservations for Indians, Eskimos or Aleuts.
 2. Immediate settlement of all aboriginal claims.
 3. Protection for Alaska indus tries in competition with foreign products.
 4. Investigation of various Ter ritorial offices, agencies and bur eauS.
 5. Review of tax laws enacted by the last legislature; the reten- tion or enactment of such tax leg iSlation as may be required to raise sufficient revenue for the sound economical progress and administration of the Territory's business.
 6. Curtailment of needless Ter ritorial expenses to permit bal ancing of the budget.
 Adoption of the platform fol- lowed the nomination and cleo tion of A. E. (Cap) Lathrop, Fair banks induStrialist and publisher, as national committeeman. Latin rop'S election was made unani- nous when J. C. Morris of An chorage announced that Elmer RasmusOn was not a candidate for the post. RaSmusOn previously had been endorsed by Third Division Republicans.
 A special committee headed by Albert White of Juneau was named to investigate government operations within the Territory.

 Moreover, he indicated to news men that the committee might not even get a look at his mate rial.
 Mccarthy had asked FBI chief J. Edgar Hoover to have an agent on hand so he could turn over the material to the FBI for study. Hoover promised to do so, but no agent was around when McCar- thy left the chamber last night.
 Mccarthy said that neverthe- less the FBI "is going to get every scrap of evidence 1 have"
