WORLD A-BOMB CONTROL, URGED

Senators Told Alternative Is Destruction... -

By JAMES E. ROPER United Press Staff Correspondent WASHINGTON, Oct. 18 (U. PJ). --The man with the youthful face spoke softly and quietly, but his words were foreboding. ! Either have international control of atomic energy, he said, or prepare for the end of civilization as we know it. > Veteran senators with deeplylined faces leaned across the conference table to catch every word from the witness, a smooth-skinned man with a collegiate haircut. He was Dr. J. R. Oppenheimer, probably the world’s greatest authority on atomic bombs. He directed atomic research at the government’s laboratory at Los Alamos, N. M,, and carried in his head secrets such as few mortals know. For the moment, he was fishing in his coat pocket for his pipe. But there was no restlessness among the 200 witnesses who had filled the tiny hearing room and overflowed into an adjoining office, Urges World Control Probably none of them ever would understand the processes which Oppenheimer knew so well. But they could understand his conclusions, and he gave them as casually as if he were a high school teacher lecturing some bobbysoxers. The subject was perhaps the greatest problem ever faced by man. To shackle the Frankenstein monster of atomic bombs, he said, the world must have an international organization with more authority than any individual state. Let it have the atom bomb_exclusively. 7 Either that, he said, or risk having 40,000,000 Americans — every city-dweller—obliterated in a series of blinding flashes from exploding atomic bombs from enemy bases. They would be rocket-borne and wolild mark the start and finish of the war—all in one hideous blow, Oppenheimer spoke almost casually. His voice was clear. So was his point: “The world is almost at the breaking point as far as weapons go.” Would Lead To War Up stepped another atom expert, Dr. H. J. Curtis, from the laboratories at Oak Ridge, Tenn. He was younger than any of the senators, but they addressed him with ret

spect. “The American public is not yet fully aware of the magnitude of the problem,” said Dr, Curtis. “Irying {fo keep the atomic bomb for ourselves would serve notice to other countries that we were developing atomic energy for military purposes, There would be an international armament race which could only lead to a war too horrible to contemplate.” Both Curtis and Oppenheimer feared the peace-seeking diplomats might not be able to finish their work in time. Oppenheimer pointed ouj that the British already were talking about making atom bombs,

gland said he couldn't blame the

Russians if they started, too. Senator J. William Fulbright (D. Ark.) asked about defensive measures. Oppenheimer lit his pipe, and leaned back in his chair. “I don't know about other bombs,” he said, “but our bombs .can not be exploded by any means before they reach their destination.” Fulbright wanted to know

whether atom bombs would get more powerful. “I would undertake to make more powerful bombs,” Oppenheimer replied. He thought for a moment and added: “But ours weren't so bad, you know.”

JAPANESE FIGHT

JAVA NATIVES

Strive to Hold Status Quo Until Allies Arrive.

By. JOHN 8. BOWER United Press. Staff Correspondent BATAVIA, Oct. 18~—Japanese troops battled Indonesian nationals on Java today in an effort to maintain the status quo pending arrival of allied control forces,

Reports from mid-Java received said that the Japanese had coun-ter-attacked The native insurgents, representing a self-styled “republican government,” at Semarang Djombang and “many other places” where the Indonesians had gained control. Native unrest over Dutch rule mounted in the interior, particularly in the vicinity of Semarang, capital of Java, where allied troops were reported pouring ashore, Allies Investigate

Allied military commission authorities, who took over control of Java after nationalist outbreaks against the Dutch, flew republican representatives to Semarang to investigate the situation, an Indonesfan spokesman said. Bandung, meanwhile, has been occupied by British troops who have rounded up Japanese personnel. The British were expected to occupy Semarang shortly. Ambarawa, another large city in the center of the island, where 22,000 Dutch nationals reside, also was to be occupied by the allies. Six hundred hostages taken by nationalist extremists in their “holy war” with the Dutch have not yet been recovered, authorities said. British troops havesskirmished with the insurgents in the Buitenzorg area, ; Evacuate Casualties Ambulances sent to Depok, Christian village 15 miles south of Batavia, evacuated 20 casualties from the village after a 20-hour reign of

It said the fuse, a radio transmitter and receiver installed in the nose of a projectile, sends out high-frequency radio waves. The waves cause the explosive charge to detonate when they bounce back from enemy aircraft or other objects within set distances. The generator turns at the rate of 100,000 revolutions a minute, 50 times faster then an airplane propeller.

Aneta, official Dutch news agency, said the entire village population was evacuated to Buitzenzorg by allied troops after continued sniping by the nationalists. Aneta also quoted “official” sources as saying that recovered British and Dutch prisoners of war and internees at Semarang, on Java's northern coast, had been “Jailed” by the Indonesians and “the 30,000 women and children in the camps are in great danger.”
