enemy air attack tand en-
nance the effectiveness of inter-
ceptor aircraft squadrons and
ground based air defense units,
the announcement said.
From Ground or Planes
From this, it was assumed
that the projected weapons will
be designed for firing either from
ground or from interceptor
planes flying above enemy
bomber formations,
Never before has an atomic
blast occurred at the altitude
planned for the Nevada test The
announcement said it would pro-
vide information on 1.-The effects
of the atomic explosions at high
attitudes"
1t is believed the test device
will be dropped from a high
flying aircraft and will be ex-
ploded at an altitude where the
density of the air is only a frac-
ton of that at ground level.
Under these conditions. the
thin air would help dissipate a
blast wave and reduce the area
of damage.
although such a weapon at
these attitudes can destroy air
craft within a considerable dis
lance from the point of burst"
the announcement said, no
damage or injury from blast.
heat or nuclear radiation is
anticipated to property or in
dividuals from the test"
Slight Effect Under Blast
It said a person standing di-
rectly beneath the blast would
receive radiation comparable to
less than a hundredth of a dose
received in a standard chest
x-ray."
The announcement offered a
possible explanation of a test
made at the proving grounds last
week. In that experiment, planes
flying at very high altitude laid
out a grid of smoke trails into
the midst of which a non-atomic
explosion was set off. Such a
smoke grid would provide cali
bration for measuring the shock
wave of an explosion, showing
how far out the blast reached
Presumably. a smoke grid or
something like it will be used in
the actual atomic test.
Use of atomic explosion will
involve a principle different from
that of conventional antiaircraft
fire. The knock down of air.
craft by atomic weapons will de-
pend almost entirely on the
destructive shock wave of the ex-
plosion. With conventional
flax" most of the damage re-
suits from fragmentation of the
shell casing.

SEATTLE, Mar. % (Py.-In a
dry and choked voice, Mrs. Emma
Peterson told of the crash land
ing Saturday of the big Pan
American World Always plane
in the Pacific Ocean.
II didn't know it was John.
she said. II just noticed that
some one had been dragged in
all covered with oil.
Il lifted his head up and laid
it in my lap so it would not lie
in the water on the bottom of
the life raft.
HE opened his eyes and smiled
weakly, then said, oh. is that
you, Emma?'
Then he didn't say any more.
He groaned, became silent and
died there-his head in my lap"
4 Die in Crash Landing
John Peterson, 80, died. And
so did three others in the crash
landing of the Hawaii-bound
plane on a quiet sea Is miles off
the Oregon coast. His 75-year-
old wife survived, along with 10
other passengers and crew men,
bers.
Last night the survivors
brought back their recollections,
bitter and sweet, and the bodies
of the four who persisted in the
cold waters.
Three were swept to their
deaths by relentless current
and wind that drove them away
from life RATS on which the sur
viving huddled.
Those clustered on the three
life RATS could hear the con-
stantly weaker and more distant
cries of those who died in their
life jackets, victims of cold,
shock and drowning.
Its something I never want
to hear again." a crew member
recalled with breaking voice.
Pilot Had No Choice
The ditching and the rescues
were a cruel combination of the
good and the bad. Normally,
when one of the big 4-engined
Stratocruisers loses the service
of one engine it can continue
on the power of the other three,
But the unexplained forces
which wrenched the engine from
its mountings and cast it into
the sea wrought such structural
damage the plane could not re-
turn to land. Capt. H. S. Joslyn,
the pilot. had no choice but to
ditch on the water.
They did, and all those who
came ashore from the Navy
transport USS Bayfield, in
Seattle last night told similar
stories. 1t was of the calm quiet
ness of all aboard when Capt.
Joslyn ordered over the COM
munication system:
Get to your seats. Prepare
to ditch"
Less than 10 minutes later the
ship crunched down on the sur
face of the water. The tail as
sembly broke loose and pas
sengers were thrown forward in

With escape almost out of the
question for the convicts, prison
authorities and the Governor
sat tight, waiting for the rebels
to make the next move.
