Crash Os Bomb Felt Miles Away Bf Bomb Crew Guam. Aug. 8. —America's new weapon, the atomic bomb, struck squarely in the center of the indus trial city of Hiroshima on August 6 'Pacific time) with a flash and concussion that brought an exclam ation of "My God!" from a battle hardened Superfortress crew 10 miles away. Crewmen who carried the awful new bomb, which is declared to have an explosive power the equivalent of bombs that 2,000 Superfortresses would have had to carry previously. Col. Paul W. Tibbets, Jr., Miami, Fla., who piloted the Superfortress and navy Capt. William S. Parsons, of Sante Fe, N. M., navy ordnance expert; described the explosions as •'tremendous and awe-inspiring.” Neither man could give an esti mate of what damage the bomb had wrought but they declared It "must! hove been extensive." There is reason to believe, how ever, that this southern Honshu city of 313.000 no longer continues t*o exist. "It was 0915 i.9:15 n. m.) when we dropped our bomb and we turn- 1 ed the plane broadside to get the best view," said Captain Parson, j "Then we made as much distance! from the ball of fire as we could. “We were at least 10 miles awrfy ! and there was a visual impact even; though every man wore colored! glasses for protection. We had brae-, ed ourselves when the bomb was gone. Just what damage was done to Hiroshima was not known. Photo graphs taken at the time of bomb ing showed only smoke. Photographs taken four hours later showed smoke still obscuring the city and rising to 10,000 feet. The Superfortress which carried the bomb took off from a Marianas base and only three men knew what they carried —Colonel Tibbets. Cap tain Parsons, and the bombardier, Maj. Thomas W. Ferebee, of Mocks villc, N. C. Other crewmen knew only that it was a highly secret, important -mission. :—! o Points Removed From Juices Washington Grocers scratched point values today from canned to mato juice, grapefruit- orange juice blends.

Dunlaps’ Son-In- Civil Engineer. Amopg. Those At Oak Ridge, Tenn. George B. Lockhart, civil engineer, jof Chailottc and Roxboro. a gradu jalc of the University of North Car jclina, Chapel Hill, and son-in-law [of Mr. and Mrs. E. P. Dunlap, of this City, is one of several local resi dents now living and working in [Oak Ridge, Tenn., center for mak ing of the new, deadly and destruc tive atomic bomb, it was learned here today. I The Lockharts, who have two children, a daughter. Rosemary, and a son, George, Jr., have been at Oak Ridge for about a year, accord ing to Mrs. Dunlap, who said that . she and Mr. Dunlap visited the Lockharts this past May and had to secure permits before they could ' even enter the Oak Ridge area, which has several gates, with many soldiers on guard. j. Mrs. Dunlap reported today that • they were, of course aware that pro duction at Oak Ridge was concerned - 1 with the making of war supplies and at the time they were there . ’’n hinted at radar, which, as revealed 1 in papers this week, was really way off the track. Residents of Oak Ridge have comfortable living quarters and good schools, adds Mrs. Dunlap. The place, she says, is quite won derful and she wishes everybody could see it, although she admits that she and her husband, of course, did not go in any of the Clinton Engineering company plants and really knew nothing at all about the Manhattan project, as the bomb making task was called Mr. Ldbknart, before going to Oak Ridge, was in Louisville, Ky„ on a government project and wanted to . be released for military service, but i his release was declined and he was i assigned to Oak Ridge. He was form -1 erly with the State Highway divis ion here. It is understood that Miss Dorothy White, also of Roxboro, was at one time at Oak Ridge, and that , at least two to three other residents have been there recently. One recently returned Person sol dier said yesterday that the atomic bomb had been tested out in Europe before peace was declared there, but that effectiveness of the bomb could and should be much larger in Japan because of the flimsy construction of Japanese dwellings and buildings as compared with those in Europe, most of the ones in Europe being built of stene and masonry, while Japanese homes are chiefly of wood jand bamboo construction. ' Oak Ridge, Tenn., is described as the fourth largest city in Tennessee now, although it did not even exist 'three years ago. The City cost the Government sl,- 10C,393,380 and it was built so se cretly and quickly that only a few lof its resident and workers had the j slightest idea of its purpose until jits product-was announced. But it is 'only a relatively small part of a Government reservation of 59,000 acres (Oak Ridge covers j 5.120 acres called the Clinton En ! gineering Works. It was permitted [to say that the works Include “more than" 425 buildings and raw mater ial is separated by three different methods. For three years no newspaper pr radio station under the voluntary censorship code could mention Oak Ridge or its surrounding plants. It was one of the most important and consequently best kept of America's war secrets. Residents of Knoxville, 15 miles away, knew of course that tremendous things were occurring there but not one had the slightest idea of what they were. The Clinton workers were housed, fed, entertain ed and secluded in tills.city of their own to keep them away from out siders. Airplanes constantly patrol ed the vast reservation i'h the Ten nessee hills. It was “a closed area” ; for commercial planes. So extreme w%s the secrecy, that the head of one plant on the Oak Ridge reservation was not permitted to have any contact with other Oak Ridge plants where different pro cesses and methods were used. Not only were all workers in the dark, but it was said, most of them could not be sure they were producing anything. Always the atmosphere was one of the greatest uncertainty. Work ers saw huge quantities of material going into giant plants functioning at top speed day and night. But nothing came out of them—that is nothing which was seen. ®hc Courier=®imeg Pic.

Slate and county AA-A officials met here yesterday in the Person County AAA office to make organi zation plans to present the Federal Crop Insurance Program to wheat farmers in the county. B c. Mangum. State AAA com mit! eeman, speaking before the group said that, "it takes three basic things to guarantee happi ness and well-being among our farm people, good prices, better land, and crop assurance." "The Government. cooperating with farmers, has made big gains toward good prices and better lands through loan, price support, and soil improvement programs," Man gum said, "and now, to round out the farnv program, crop assurance is attainable through Federal Crop Insurance," The Crop Insurance Program is based on wheat, cotton, and flax on a nation-wide basis and tobac co and corn in certain counties of various states. "We must have large participation in the wheat Clop insurance program because, a successful program will demon strate the farmers' interest in crop insurance and will almost certainly lead to. extension of crop insurance to other crops,” Mangum stated. In explaining the program io the group. C. H. Banks, Jr., State AAA Field Officer pointed out that this ail-risk insurance protects the farmer's wheat from planting to harvest against all natural hazards, and that the amount of coverage varies witli the stage of the crop's development. Premiums, Banks I said, are payable annually by cash lor by premium notes. ! Under the program, two contracts 1 v ill be offered.

Social Security Marks Ten Years Os U. S. Work Social Security in America reach ed its tenth birthday this week, al though in North Carolina it is only eight years: old. The age difference is the result of having to wait until the 1937 "General Assembly could enact laws to take advantage of the Social Security Act .which was sign ed by the President on August 14. 1635. There, are many phases of the .so cial security program covered in the broad federal legislation with two of them the direct responsibility in j North Carolina of county depart ments of public welfare.

London. Aug. 8 —The revolution ary atomic, bomb might become the peace-enforcing weapon of the unit ed nations through a special air police force equipped with the se cret, terrible missile by the United States and Britain, some diplomats suggested tonight. They also speculated that the bomb would raise the question of putting all militariiy-important sci entific inventions under control of tlie united nations security council when the new world organization is born. One prime question was whether the secret of the atomic bomb would be or should be -shared with oth er allied nations, and whether Rus [sia already had been Informed of the: secret: I here was general agreement that the weapon could become the “big stick " of peace and security, pro vided it did not fall into the wrong bunds, and that it promised to change radically the modern con cepts of security and strategy. Some diplomats said that the Americans and British, even if they did not wish to reveal their secret, might agree to furnish a special'air force, to tiie security council. Under such ah, the interna tional organization would not be given the secret of the bomb, but could use the air force wherever ag gression might break out. There was broad speculation that a proposal' for council con trol of military scientific inventions would be made during the first plen ary session of the new world organ ization. Most: often heard was the com ment. "It is more important thafj ever now that'the--new international security organization should be Blade to work. Now it is either i peace [and security, or total destruc t ion of civilization," Everyone agreed that every coun try in the world was digesting every morsel of news about the weapon, and considering its potential im port on all future international re lations. o Canada Studies Postwar Plan Ottawa.
