Army's New Atomic Gun
neralds New Era IN Mar

NEW 1Oftn-AH-Al dtOiiHC Otuf
developed by the U. S. Army
was described here as an accurate
and devastating weapon, provid-
ing field commanders with tre-
mendous finger tip" fire power
and heralding a new era in the
waging Of war.
The description of this coun-
try's first atomic artillery wea-
pon-A gun that can hit its tar
get under any weather conditions
and give ground troops the kind
of devastating close support never
beforc available In warfare
came from Army Secretary Frank
Pace.
Pace said the new weapon is
essentially an artillery piece but
with immeasurably greater power
than any artillery hitherto
known"
II "Such atomic weapons" he add
ed. eventually will bring "signi-
I ficant changes" in the Army's
traditional mission OF closing with
and destroying an enemy.
PAGES claims for the weapon
came in speech before meeting
OF the National Wool Manufac-
turers Association.
The weapon has been tested by
the Army with non-atomic am
munition but official specifications
of the gun remained a secret until
last Thursday.
Pace, in disclosing for the first
time some of the weapons spcci-
fications, gave this picture of the
gun:
1t weighs about IS tons but is
highly mobile and is carried ON a
platform suspended between two
engine cabs at its front and rear.
1t can travel at speed of about
35 miles per hour on highways
and il can cross bridges which
army engineers are already train
ed to build for present heavy
divisional equipment"
1t can travel cross-country.
1t can fit into a landing ship
designed for amphibious opera.
tionS.
And it can fire with accuracy
comparable to conventional art.
illery, and tests indicate it is much
more accurate at long ranges.
Pace also said that in addition
to tactical atomic bombs being
developed for use by aircraft, this
country also is developing atomic
artillery whicii can outrangc the
gun-type weapon.
This development, he explained
Involves guided missiles and roc
Nets to receive atomic warheads.'
E Pace likewise disclosed that
courses in atomic warfare are be.
ing introduced in army schools.
Currently, he said, army officers
and some Army civilian special.
lists are attending a school al
Sandia Base, New Mexico, in g
study of the use and characters
tics of atomic armaments.
He then added:
I'VE intend beginning individ
ual and unit training in atomi,
warfare in the near future"
Despite the building of new
weapons of destruction, the Arm,

mates my wife as completely as
any older sister ever ruled a
younger one. @
When Frances wants to know
anything, she no longer consults
me. She asks little miss cyclops.
1t is worse than having a bossy
mother-in-law around the place.
l never did claim to know the
answers to everything, but little
miss cyclops does-or pretends to.
And SO my husbandly authority is
breaking down altogether.
Take politics. The last political
remark / remember my wife MAX
ing was in 1889, when she said:
When this Hitler goes into a
country, what does he do-take
what he wants of it and let the
rest of it go?"
Well, naturally, my friends and
! treasured this utterance with
considerable hilarity for many
years.
But now? Frances listens to
every panel program with beagle
eagerness, and calls every presi-
Dental canidate by his first name.
If 1 make any offlland observation
on a current issue, she replies
witheringly;
why, Rover, that isn't what
Estes said last Sunday. Neither did
Bob the week before.sYou must
be wrong. Don't you keep up with
what is going on anymore 2"
She has even gone into scien-
tific research. She keeps five diff
trent kinds of cigarets handy, and
smokes one out of each pack
every day.
Il uin going to .give them all
30-day test, and make UP my
own mind which is the mildest,"
She says grimly.
but what worries me most is
The fact she is getting to be a
fan of the crime programs little
Miss Cyclopes dishes up in those
evening rogues' gallery menus.
The other night Frances broke
out in sudden jeering laughter,
when I lifted my eyebrows over
the newspaper, she pointed at the
TV screen and said:
Look at the bum. He's holding
his gat wrong. Ha, Ha, Ha."
Now, looisy here. men. Do we
want machine in the home that
teaches wives the proper way to
hold pistols, commit arson, and
poison husbands bedtime milk ?
Intuition never taught women
those things. But television does.
Man to man, is this education by
!. electronics good for the ladies
The home was more peaceful when
all they knew for sure was what
they read in the cookbook.

Answer to Question Nc. 8:

Answer to Question Ne. 5: -
Yes, it is. Well over 30 per
cent Of obesity is due to over,
eating or eating the wrong
foods. Statistics show that the
mortality rate of any given age
group is greater among tlscse
who are overweight than among
others of the same age gr0up.
Diabetes, heart disturbsnces and
kidney conditions are the more
common ailments that affect
overweight people. Overweight
increases susceptibility to cam
Ger and accidents. Dieting to
treat the condition should al-
ways be done under the guild
ance of your physician.

The World Today

J uuV. uuVu ~ WHY
. WASHINGTON, -lAP)-veterans
Of the Korean War will get
benefits similar to those given
World War II veterans If
measure approved by the House
Veterans committee is passed by
congress-.
Before House and Senate olsay
such bill, if they do, they may
make changes. So the finished
product is apt to be different
from the committee version. But
this is a quick look at it as 1t
stands.
The benefits apply not only to
members of tho armed forces who
served in the Korean theater but
to all who were in the armed
forces ut home or abroad, on or
after June 81, 1850.
Education:
If he served at least 80 days,
man gets IL days OF education
or training at government expense
for each day of service but no
more than 36 months And he
must apply within two years after
discharge
"a World War ii veteran who
served at least 90 days got a
minimum of Is months. The
maximum was 48 months. With
out going into details. it can be
said generally he was allowed
more time after discharge to
apply.
Education and training allow
ancc:
If he's enrolled in a course
full-timc, a Korea veteran gets
S110 a month il he has no de-
pendents and $50 if he has one
or more that's all On that money
he must live, pay his tuition, buy
his books.
ca World War III veteran got
SIS month to live on if he was
single, $105 if he had one depen-
dent, and $120 if he had two or
more dependents, plus his tuition
fees and book costs up to a
limit of $500 year,.
What of World War II
veteran who was getting an edu-
cation under the old CT Bill of
Rights then had his education
interrupted by going back into
the service?
He'd be entitled, upon his dis
charge, to finish out the time in
school due him under the old CT
Bill, plus whatever schooling he
earned as Korean veteran but
no more than a combined total of
48 months.
But a World War II veteran
who didn't apply for his educa-
tionai benefits before the dead
line of July 25. 1851 set up for
most World War ii veterans,
couldn't claim them now as a
result of service in the Korean
war. He'd get only the benefits
due TO him as n Korea veteran.
Housing:
The same housing benefits for
those who served on or after June
81, 1850 as presently are given
World War III veterans: Guaranty
of home loans up to 60 per cent
with maximum of $500; bust
nesS-loan guarantees of $1,000;
and direct loans up to $4,000 in
non-city areas where private
financing is not available. The in
terest in all cases must not exceed
per cent.
Social Security:
Korea and World War Ii vete-
rams get the same wage credit for
every month in service-S160-for
Cld-age and survivors insurance
Mastering Outlay:
In place of readjustment bene-
fits, the mustering-out pay is
S10O for less than 60 days SER
vice; $500 for more than so days;
$500 when there is more than sc
days service which includes SER
vice overseas.
