.Bikini Study Released

Some of the data on the eff

hydrogen bombs was removed
from the secret files this week,
Atomic Energy Commission
Chairman Lewis L. Strauss
made official recurring state
ments from scientists and others
that the fallout from large nu-
clear bombs would claim thou
sands of lives in areas far re-
moved from the explosion
points.
In a H-bomb blast such as the
United States set off on Bikin

what looked Like an intention of
soaring the daylights out of the

Peiping wanted to dominate it.
The Bangkok conference was in

tonation and varying in width
up to 40 miles. The area in
volved was similar to the size
and shape of the state of New
Jersey.
Strauss added that damage
from exposure to such radiation
could be reduced "by taking
shelter and by simple decon-
tamination measures such as
thorough bathing and a change
of clothing.
Fallout is composed of mate
Irials sucked up into the bomb
cloud. They fall back to earth
las radioactive particles. The
amount depends on several fac
tors, including whether the
bomb is exploded on the ground
If it is, a great deal more ma
terial is sucked into the air than
if the weapon is detonated ir

This was 8 per cent above the

Women and the Churches
A hundred years ago, Flor

fered the church my heart, my
mind and all my life, but it
sent me to Go crochet-work in
my grandmothcr's parlor."
Today. things are different.
Women are taking a steadily
broadening role in the affairs
Of their churches, although
many denominations still do not
accept them into the ministry.
The professional woman
church worker has become a
prominent part of the country's
religious organizations.
They serve on mission fields,
sit on local, state and national
church governing bodies, direct
educational and other programs
Even the number Of ordained
women has more than doubled
in the last 6scade-reaching
record high OF about 1000.

such a vast organization did not

course, under present condi-

No Labor Party Expected
Louis Hollander, president of
the New York state CIO, came
close to the idea in predicting
that conservatives of the two
present parties would gradually
join together, leaving labor to
rebuild what remained. Actual
Ily, something like that already
has been visibly taking place,

a unified labor movement.
It would give labor a Labor

a third party and thereby run
