REPORT SECRET RED CITY MAKING BOMBS

NEW YORK, Oct. 28 (U. P).— Russia has established a& “secret laboratory city” known as “Atomgrad,” where her top scientists are

working on development of cosmic|:

bombs. They are said to be 1000 times more powerful than the atom homb, a magasine article asserted yesterday. The article appearing in Everybody's digest was signed by J. Alvin Kugelmass. He said he obtained the information from “internationally known experts and scientific journals published in Europe and America.” The secret city, described as a Soviet “Oak Ridge,” was sald. to have a population of more than 400,000 persons. It is reportedly located at Lake Baikal in the Buryat-Mongol republic. Atomgrad, the article said, “was planned two years agéd.and is the center of an intensive scientific project. Road and air approaches are said to have been blocked over a radius of 150 miles.
