No New Diseases Due To Radiation Sums Up Findings From Commission ‘ TOKYO (INS) — Dr. Robert H. Holmes, director of the atomic bomb casualty commission In Hir--1 oshlma. disclosed that studies have proved, there are “oo new diseases I due to radiation." ■ Holmes, speaking at a luncheon I at the foreign correpsoudents' club I in Tokyo, said in summing up the ’ commission's findings of the past I ten years: I “We have no new diseases to [ report." [ The scientist said studies showed A-bomb survivors suffer a higher ! rate of lukemia than normal popuj lations and that some victims dej velop cataracts. The doctor said, however, there ! has not been a single case of blind- ' ness among victims of cateracts. I added that as far as has I been determined there has been no , genetic damage caused by radia- ’ tion. Os more than 75.000 babies I born of parents exposed-to, A-bomb ; radiation, he said, none have been found-to have suffered genetic damage. "There are no observed mutations in humans exposed to radiation,"' Holmes stated, ‘‘although mutations have been observed in lower animals in experiments.” As for long range genetic effects on the off-spring of A-bomb victims. the doctor said “they would not likely be found if they were not observed in the first dr second generation.”" The scientist _ explained that in Hiroshima and Nagasaki only a limited number of residents actually suffered injury. Holmes said 6.000 persons in Hiroshima and 2,000 in Nagasaki suffered “early effects of radiation.” He said these persons were inside a critical 2,000 meter radius from the center of bomb blast. The doctor added that some 24,uOO other persons in Hiroshima were also inside the critical radius but survived without showing effects of radiation. In all. he said there were 100.000 survivors of the A-bomb in Hiroshima and 90,000 survivors of the blast in Nagasaki. Holmes said these great numbers of survivors were not affected by radiation probably because of shieldlug and an individual insensitivity to radiation. Holmes declared that effects on fertility were limited. “Fertility returns with the return of good health." he said.

Russian Blast ► Touched Off On Wrangel Island Data On Explosion Is Accumulated By Japan Scientists TOKYO (JNS) — Data accumu- ‘ lated by Japanese scientists lent : support today to a growing belief that the tremendous thermonu- ’ clear explosion touched off by Rus- ’ sia last week occurred approximately 400 miles from United ‘ States territory. ’ The scientists indicated the ex- . plosion probably took place in the vicinity of Wrangel island which lies in the Arctic ocean about 400 ’ miles from Cape Lisburne on the northwestern tip of alaska. . They arrived at the probable location on the basis of meteorological and seismological data being analyzed by scientists throughout ( Japan. The analysis also indicates the Soviet super-explosion occurred on j Nov. 22. , Wrangel island was first men- . tionecPas the likely explosion site i by scientists at the Kanazawa wea , ther station in central Japan where instruments were said to have registered “strong, earthquake • like shocks” beginning at 4:55 p.m. on Nov. 22. Kanazawa weather station experts described the nature of the recorded shocks as “almost exactly the same” as those recorded after the hydrogen blast set off by the U.S. at Bikini in March. 1954. After noting distance factors and the direction of the shock waves, they arrived at Wrangel island as the most likely explosion site. Both Wrangel island and the Bikini atolls of the mid-Pacific are about 4,060 miles from Kanazawa. Seismologists in other parts of Japan reported recording similar shocks and their estimates also Qientioned Wrangel island as the proable location of the explosion. The increased radioactive count measured in rainfall prompted authorities to warn Japanese against drinking rainwater for the time being. The highest count —28.000 per liter per minute on Nov. 27— vr,a.s reported by the Fukuoka meteorological station on Kyushu, southern Japan. A central station official said that under normal conditions the radioacnFe'cdiint of rainla’lf fr between 20 and 80. He added that a study of the data . jiow compiled was “incomplete,” but that when ready it should make “interesting reading.” —ww—tain , i.. ii—Lir w . •. .-'-r—xr > v**:V* ■ ■ V'W * ' ■ ■< -4R ■ ■ w W-'. -MM J® \ „ 1 \ IgFiX .1 SEN.
