1t0-k.P.H. Typhoon
Expected 10 Pass by
Eniwefok Atom Area
By the Associated Press

PEARL HARBOR, Mar. pa
typhoon packed with 110-mile-an-
hour winds was expected to roar
within 200 miles of Eniwetok early
today and may go even closer to
the isolated atoll where the United
States tests its atomic weapons.
Tests already may be under way
there. At least. preparations for
such tests are in high gear.
Presumably the atoll was bat
tened down for the storm. But
military secrecy prevented any dis
closure of what steps may have
been taken to protect the vital
installations and testing gear
there.
800 Miles East of Atoll.
The doughnut-shaped mass of
roaring winds and bad weather
last was reported 800 miles east of
Eniwetok. It was heading west
northwest at about IS miles an
hour along a course that would
miss the island.
However, typhoons often veer
crafty in unexpected directions.
This typhoon in itself is unusual.
It blew up in the off-season. And
it is far east of the regular ty-
phoon area.
The atomic experiments shap-
ing up at Eniwetok are shrouded
in highest secrecy. but foreign
providers could partially crack the
security curtain.
There is nothing to prevent
Russian submarines from slipping
out of bases in the Soviet Kuriles
and surfacing right outside the
restricted area to gather valuable
eyewitness information,
Tests Are Reported.
Official statements recently
strongly limited the A-blasts are
about to be set off. if they haven't
been set off already.
To the American people, the
1851 Eniwetok tests are the best
guarded secrets in the six-year
life Of the atomic bomb. The
secrets at the Marshall Island
atoll are guarded by man. geog-
raphy and security measures for
the Korean war. Even the date
Of tests cannot be told.
Isolated Eniwetok is ideally To-
Gated for secrecy. The tiny atoll
is 2,700 miles from the Comn1u-
mist mainland of Asia. 1000 miles
from Hawaii and almost 5000
miles from the United States.
Area Is Closed OFF.
A 200-square-mile area around
Eniwetok is restricted to members
of the Atomic Energy Commission
and United States military per-
sonnet connected with the ex-
periments.
The United States, under United
Nations trusteeship agreements
covering the strategic Marshalls,
is empowered to close off the area.
The names of ships and the
identity of top atomic officials
passing through Hawaii to the
1948 Eniwetok tests gave hints on
the type and timing of operations
then. Nothing like that is avail
able now.

White House Refuses
Comment on Demand
For 0'Dwyer Custer

The White House today main
tanned mo comment" attitude
in the face of a hint from Sen
ator Tobey. Republican, of New
Hampshire and a demand from
the American Labor Party that
William ODwyer should be re-
moved as United States Ambas-
sador to Mexico.
Testimony given the Senate
Crime Investigating Committee
during its New York hearings
prompted Senator Tobey to pre-
dict that Mr.. O'Dwyer's status as
Ambassador might be brought
up" before the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee.
Chairman Connally Of the For
leign Relations Committee said his
group had no plans to restudy
the ODwyer nomination, which
his committee approved only a
few months ago. He refused fur
lther comment.
O'Dwyer Has No Plans to Quit.
President Truman chooses Am
lbasSadors, but his nominations
must be approved by the Senate.
When Mr.. O'Dwyer, then New
York's Mayor. was nominated, he
was questioned by the Foreign
Relations Committee. On the
committee's recommendation the
Senate approved him for the post
and Senate officials said that body
has no way of recalling a NOM
lination.
Mr.. ODwyer has said he has
no plans to quit, asserting that
my superior will be the Judge OF
that" His superior is President
Truman.
| Meanwhile, Vito Marcantonio,
former American Labor Party
Representative in Congress and
now its New York State chair
man, said he wired Mr.. Truman:
"O'Dwyer's testimony before
the Senate Crime Investigating
Committee. the revelation Of his
activities as district attorney and
Mayor, and his acts of omission
and commission against the pub
lie interest deeply violate the
moral standards expected by the
American people of any public
official"
ALP Switched O'Dwyer Support.
The ALP supported Mr.. O'Dwyer
when he was first elected Mayor
in 1945. but did not support him
when he was reelected in 1949.
Two congressional committees
already have asked Federal prose-
cutors and revenue agents to study
sharply conflicting testimony con-
corning the former Mayor for any
evidence of perjury of tax evasion.
The testimon.-fe:ll,,' contra
dicted by Mr.. O'Dwyer-came
from John P. Crane, head of the
Uniformed Firemen's Association
in New York. who said he gave
Mr.. O'Dwyer $4,000 cash in 1949.
Mr.. Crane termed the payment
evidence of the support" of the
f1remen during the 1949 campaign.
In another development, New
York Mayor Vincent Impellitteri
signed into law a bill to block
quick retirement of policemen
who may be under suspicion.

Political and Military Effect.
Discussed in Washington
BY the Associated Press

An official announcement BY
Argentina that it has produced
atomic energy by a new method
hit Washington with tremendou!
impact today. 1t set diplomat:
talking about possible politica
land military effects.
United States officials knew
that President Juan D. Peron'.
government was experimenting ir
atomic energy as well as in Other
scientific fields. Their first re.
actions today indicated that they
did not know the nature of the
results which Gen. Peron now
|claimS.
The Atomic Energy Commits
sion here refused comment. The
State Department had nothing to
say for the moment.
Political Purpose Possible.
1t seemed apparent that the
Peron announcement. made at a
news conference in Buenos Aires
would continue to provide a major
topic of conversation for diplo-
mats here for the opening of the
inter-American Foreign Ministers
conference Monday.
There was speculation that the
timing of Gen. Peron's announce
ment on the eve of the conference
may have been deliberate-a polit-
ical maneuver to increase his
country's prestige and make it the
focus OF attention at the con-
ference.
American authorities suggested
these questions be asked of Gen
Peron's claims:
How efficient is the new process
he claims?
Does it require the huge indus
trial support the American atomic
energy program requires?
How fully have Argentine sci
ientists developed it?
Is Method Practical?
II it is still in the laboratory
stage, will it work on practica
production scale?
If Argentina can produce atomic
energy materials on large scale
eventually. and if it has a COM
handing lead over other Latir
American countries in this respect
then it will some day be in posi-
ton to upset the balance of power
in Latin America.
American scientists and some
political leaders familiar with
atomic energy development have
long considered this possibility
The scientists never have
claimed that the methods used ir
the United States were the only
possible methods and have adj
vanced the theory that at some
point a smaller nation. like Ar
gentina, might find cheap, quick
way to produce atomic energy.
