SoViet's New A-BIast
NoH-Bomb, Acc Says;
Seems Part Of Series
Explosion Is Determined
As Of Same Energy Ronee
As Tests in Nevada
BY the Associated Press

Russia has produced another
atomic explosion, the Govern
ment announced last night, and
evidence thus far available to
United States experts indicates
it was not hydrogen blast. al
though 1t was perhaps Of con-
siderable power.
The date was August %, the
Atomic Energy Commission state
ment said, and the explosion
was in the same range of energy
release as our recent Nevada
tests, and would appear to be
part of a SERIES"
IF this proves to be the fact, :"
the commission added, mo fur
ther announcement will be made
unless intelligence indicates in
formation of greater interest"
There were blasts of varying
power in the 11-shot series
which the United States con-
Quoted last spring at its proving
ground in the Nevada desert. and
to which the Acc compared the
latest Russian effort.
Biggest Dwarfed Hiroshima.
The last one, on June 4, was
generally described as the largest
atomic explosion ever to be set
off in the United States proper
It was estimated to be the
equivalent of $4,000 tons of
TINT, or about 212 times as
powerful as the bomb dropped
on Hiroshima shortly before the
end of the war with Japan.
Effects of the United States
blast on June 4 were seen or
felt up to 500 miles from the
test site.
This was the second United
States disclosure in less than
two weeks that the Russians
had produced an atomic ex-
plosion. The earlier one on Au-
gust 10, seven days after it oc-
CURED. gave a measure of Of
ficial American confirmation to
MoScow'S claim that Russian
scientists had touched off a type
of hydrogen bomb.
Thermometer Evidence Found.
The Acc said then there was
evidence of both fission and
thermonuclear reactions - the
latter being a scientific term for
the intense heat produced in the
fusion process of the dread
hydrogen bomb.
Last nights announcement
spoke only Of "a f1ssion explo-
sion in Russian territory" :"
Conventional A-bombS made
from uranium employ the fis-
sion, or atom-splitting, process
There was no immediate word
from Moscow on the latest test.
unlike the situation following
the explosion of August IL. Then
the Moscow paper Pravda first
broke the news to the world
and the official United States
announcement followed a few
hours later.
Similar to EniwetOk.
The Acc termed that Rus
sian explosion similar to one this
country had produced at Eniwe-
tok in the Pacific more than two
years ago.
In addition to the two Rus
sian blasts last month, the
United States has announced
that it detected three others. It
has never said categorically,
however, whether it disclosed all
the explosions it detected.
! The dates of the previous an
nouncements. all made shortly
after the actual explosions. were
September %, 1949; October 8,
1851, and october %. 1851.
The exact method used in de-
lection is secret, but it is known
| to include. among other factors.
the sampling of the upper air
for the radioactivity produced
by any atomic explosion.

GOOD old summer time. But once
N a while the ice cream gets out
Of control and slides down a
fresh clean pinafore or drops on
a little boys Sunday suit.
Remember, ice cream stains
contain milk or cream, sugar, egg
and sometimes coloring. To re-
move a fresh stain from wash
able material, sponge the gar
ment with cold or iukewarm
water. Then wash in warm soap
suds. This works best If the ice
cream contains no highly colored
fruit or chocolate.
On material that is not wash
able, sponge with commercial
cleaning fluid to remove the
greasy part of the stain. Follow
directions on the bottle. Use il
out of doors or in a well-ventilat-
ed room, for the fumes may be
toxic Let the fabric dry, then
sponge with cold water to re-
move any stains from the egg
and sugar in the ice cream.
# the stain is not removed
completely, follow with pepsin
treatment. You can buy the pep
sin at the drug store. First sponge
the stain with cold water, then
snrinkle on the dampened stain
and let it stand for half an hour
Brush it off and rinse the spot
well. For best results, be sure the
material is free from soap and
other alkali before you apply
pepsin.
