Man Arrested in Raid
Not EmpIoye Of GP0

A spokesman for the Govern
ment Printing Office said today
that a man arrested in a gam
bling raid Saturday on a cigar
store in the first block of G
street NV. was not an employe
of the GPO, as reported in
The Star.
AS a matter of fact, Neal r.
Alexander, Sc, colored, of the
first block of Fenton street NV.
is employed as a janitor in the
Post Office, diagonally across
from the GPO.
Alexander, who was quoted by
police as admitting he went to
the store to turn in numbers and
horse bets, was charged with
operating a lottery.
Two men seized in the store
were charged with setting up a
gaming table and possession Of
numbers slips.

left open, there was no indenta-
tion of the roof.
Mr.. Jenner pointed out, how
ever, that it is not yet known
to what extent leaving car win
dows down may increase the heat
and radiation hazard for car oc-
cupants in an atom blast. Further
studies will be required on this
score, he indicated, and conclu-
sions are not warrented in the
meantime.
Mr.. Jenner observed that, at
ranges of one and three-quarters
to two miles, the mannequin oc-
cupants of test automobiles did
not appear to have been deranged
from their original positions. But
again he cautioned it was not yet
possible to say how these mock
drivers might have been affected
by heat blast and radiation.

observers believe. contributed
greatly to the quick collapse Of
the first civil defense test house,
$500 feet from the tower.
Theories Reafirmed.
For the scientist, the first
atomic test of 1858 brought re-
affirmation that
l. Smaller bombs can pack a
real wallop. The device, pack
ing the explosive power of $4,000
tons of TINT, only three-fourths
the strength of the Nagasaki or
normal A-bomb. made itself
heard or felt in a number Of
communities, including Las
Vegas, IS miles away; Medford,
Oreg., about 600 miles distant,
and Los Angeles, nearly 300 miles
away.
2. The American civilian and
soldier are growing up to the
atomic age. Reporters covering
the Acc and FCDA events Of the
last three years sensed increas-
ing awareness of the Importance
of survival measures. The Acc
scientists found an eager audi.
ence in civil defense workers.
Trees Set Aflame.
In yesterdays test Joshua
trees were set af1ame at 1h
miles; wood stakes charred at
$500 feet; a bunker left intact
at 5000 feet. but supporting
sandbags partly burned; the
sand scorched black in a 1,700-
foot ring; an MIA tank weigh
ing % tons moved so feet by the
blast at less than a quarter mile;
and within the 5O0-foot mark d
landing craft with tractor treadS
was torn apart.
But the most impressive point
of all was Ground Zero. The
steel shot tower was gone, vapor-
lied by the tremendous blast
heat, leaving only the concrete
base.
Aside from the heavy ground
radiation and prolonged sound
waves, the explosion did not pro-
duce any spectacular effects. DR..
Alvin C.. Graves, Acc test di-
rector. said the shot came of

this close range to the atomic
fury, that part Of the house re-
mained substantially undam-
aged. In two experimental shell
tiers which had been built there,
mannequins retained their orig
inal positions. The level of ra-
diation was only one-fourth what
1t was on the upper floors.
Contained No Utilities.
The theoretical safety of the
cellar-protected dummies, how
ever, was conditioned on one
important fact, DR.. Corsbie con-
ceded. This typical American
home contained no utilities such
as gas and electricity-nor was
it equipped with such necessities
as draperies, which might con-
ceivably have caught fire in the
blast. Had it been furnished
with these extra appurtenances.
the scientist said, there was a
fair chance the house would have
burned to the ground above the
occupants of it's cellar.
Whether basement shelters
may have protected the manne-
quin occupants of another such
house, more than twice as close
to the bomb tower. was not i'm
mediately known. That house,
as expected, wholly collapsed on
it's foundations under the force
of the atomic explosion. At the
time of DR.. Corsbie's visit to
house No. 2, house No. / was
still shrouded in radioactive dust.
Condition Of Autos.
A preliminary report on the
condition of automobiles en-
ployed in the test was delivered
to reporters, meanwhile, by j.
Staten Jenner of Silver Spring,
Md, a project officer for the
Federal Civil Defense admins
tration.
Mr.. Jenner indicated that the
automobiles-all of them hard
top models-Showed a marked
ability to Withstand atomic blast
at distances of a mile and three
fourths and beyond. Closer than
that, however. many of the cars
appeared to have been left burn
ing. A number had been turned
over, and several others had been
moved far from their original
positions, in one instance as
much as 100 feet.
Two Of the automobile placed
one-half mile from the shot
tower we're left as twisted masses
Of wreckage almost unrecogniz-
able.
Roofs Of Cars Dented.
At all ranges, Mr.. Jenner re-

GIs Learn Pointers
From Atomic Test BIost

LAS VEGAS. New. Mar. 18
R.-On the friendly practice

mission, Americans may have
learned new lessons to wrest VIC
tory out of atomic war.
These are the pointers for
soldiers indicated by yesterdays
double-barreled nuclear test:
l. Crouch in a foxhole or lie
fiat. Army officers think now
that the dug-in soldiers could
have remained above ground,
lying prone, at their two-mile
distance from yesterdays blast
tower on Yucca Flat.
2. Watch the wind and stay
behind it. The breeze after the
detonation at 800 feet swept the
radioactive column and cloud
eastward across the fiat, where
It hung threateningly for hours.
But troops were able to march
north through the vicinity of
Ground Zero.

Tactical Weapon
Used in Atom Test,
Reporter Declares
BY the A.soeiated Press

NEW YORK, Mar. 18.-Wil-
liam L. Laurence, New York
Times writer, today described
the type of weapon exploded in
Nevada yesterday as "a nuclear
device designed to serve as a
tactical atomic weapon for use
in place of artillery against an
enemy entrenched on a wide
front"
In a dispatch from Yucca Flat,
New. Mr.. Laurence said:
"It was a relatively small en-
ergy release as atomic weapons
go, less than a tenth Of some Of
the atomic weapons in the
United States arsenal, but as
artillery it undoubtedly was the
most powerful single shot of its
kind ever fired in either real or
simulated warfare"
There has been no official an
nouncement of the nature of the
weapon exploded,

experience and training to enable her to do
!; better job.
However, the NEA finds that the
rural school lags far behind urban schools
in almost every respect. Because between
forty and fifty per cent of all the public
school pupils in the United States attend
rural schools. this is :; serious problem
which must be overcome.
The answer to this problem lies in the
financial field. The rural citizens Of the
United States must make up their minds
that good schools cost money and that they
are the best investment citizens can make
in their community. Too often. in the past,
rural taxpayers have not been willing to
pay 4 tax rate which would enable their
community to operate a flrSt-claSs school or
school system.
