Plan A-Bombed Target Tour To Check Jap Death Claims
WASHINGTON, Aug. 20 (U. P). —U. 8. scientists: who developed the atomic. bomb plan to investigate the wrecks of $hima and Na~ gasaki as soon as possible after American occupation of . Japan. They are eager, it was believed, to determine the truth or untruth of Japanese veports that fatal radio activity lingered at Hiroshima for three weeks after the first atomic bomb exploded over the city Aug. 6. The war department, however, has refused to say anything for publication about any plans for conducting investigations at the pomb targets. It was similarly silent last week when the Japanese radio reported the persistence of radiation at Hiroshima which, the enemy said, added thousands to the bomb’s initial toll of dead.
Warning Given Last Aug. 8 Dr. Harold ;Jacobson of New York said in a signed news story that fatal radiation might linger after an .atomic bomb explosion for as long as 70 years. The war department in an official denial asserted, however, that there

Girls Rival Boys in Pigs, Sheep, Cattle Show.
Livestock, home canning, .clothing, bakery goods displays, a circus and a midway are all features of the 4-H club fair to be held at the state fairgrounds next Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Entries in all classes exceed last year’s, with 81 Indiana girls %ying with the boys for top honors in the breeding and raising of pigs, sheep and cattle. Miss Irma Winkleblack, assistant state 4-H club leader of Purdue university, reports that 600 entries have been received in the canning contests, 600 in the clothing classes and 800 in the baking display. Substitutes for dress material will make this year’s exhibit unusual and the cakes and cookies, many of them, have been made from syrupe and honey. The judging of livestock will begin Monday and will be climaxed by
I BOMB TOLL ~ GROWS-TOKYO
FRenarts Radio Activity Is Still Killing Persons.
| SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. ‘29 (U. 1p. ).—Radio Tokyo said today that radio activity from the atomic bomb raids on Japan three weeks ago still was killing persons who had suffered only “minor injuries” in the initial explosions. The broadcast, recorded by the FOC, declared that the death list had already stretched beyond the originally announced 90,000 and “it is believed that the casualty list will continue to grow from among those people suffering from the radio activity of the atom bomb, aside from those who have received burns and concussions.” Doctor Quotes Case Dr. Masao Suzuki, noted surgical authority at the Tokyo Imperial university, was quoted on the case of a young lady who died 190 days after receiving a minor bruise at

blood cells, which are attacked by the radiation products. The only official statement on radio activity induced in the target by the bomb itself, however, has been to the effect that it decays rapidly and does not leave a long-time threat to life and health
DR. POTTER SEES NEW CHALLENGES
Dr. A. A. Potter, acting president of Purdue university, today told the Purdue alumni club of Indianapolis at a luncheon meeting in the Columbia club that higher education faces distinct challenges in - the peace-time world. | “Those of us who are connected! J with higher education have a challenge before ‘us to stimulate the creative instincts of our students, so that Americans in the future will continue to invent and develop new machines materials, processes, | industries, products and comforts "| he said. . Dr. Potter praised the U. 8. form |

MACARTHUR GETS DSM FOR PHILIPPINE DRIVE
OKINAWA, Aug. 20 (U. P.).— President Truman has approved the award of the distinguished service medal to Gen. Douglas MacArthur for his planning and direction of the Philippines campaign. MacArthur . already holds the distinguished service medal with two oak leaf clusters, the congressional medal of honor, two distinguished service crosses, seven silver stars, two purple hearts and numerous foreign decorations. The citation said, “As supreme commander of allied air, ground and sea forces in the southwest Pacific, General of the Army Douglas MacArthur planned and personally directed the campaigns | which resulted in the liberation of the Philippine islands.”
Perscistence Varies This radio-activity persists in some of the elemental by-products for months and years, in others for only a few seconds. The war department said after publication of Jacobsont’s article that here was every reason to believe that radio-activity induced by the bomb itself decays in a very short time, It was recalled that after the first test explosion of an atomic bomb at Alamogordo, N. M., last July 16, Dr. Enrico Fermi, one of the nuclear physicists who helped to develop the weapon, examined the crater area in a specially built tank. Absorbs Radiation The war department account did not say anything further about the tank, but it was generally assumed that it was built with cadmium or some other radiation absorbing material to protect its occupants. Atomic fission induces radioactivity in virtually all the materials | connected with it, in the water used for cooling purposes and in the air itself. At the Hanford, Wash., engineer works, where the new element plutonium is manufactured, especially high smokestacks had to be built to make certain that radio-active pare ticles would be thoroughly dissipated in the atmosphere.

‘LIFT RESTRICTIONS ON BUS SERVICE
A government war order restricting bus service between Ft. Wayne, Indianapolis and Terre Haute will be rescinded Sept. 30, the office of defense transportation said today. In August, 1942, the ODT ordered the Indiana Railroad, ABC Coach Lines and Pennsylvania Greyhound Lines to honor each other's tickets, eliminate duplicate ing schedules and depots, where possible. Also Pennsylvania Greyhound was banned from making stops between Indianapolis and Terre Haute, which was allocated to Indiana Railroad. These restrictions are thus voided.
