A wave of accidents swept the city as pedestrians and motorists fought the snowfall. Police station switchboards were swamped during the period.

For a bri#f period, visibility at Weir Cook Municipal Airport was reduced to three quarters of a mile. Hardest hit were counties in northern Indiana. They caught the brunt of this storm which left four inches of snow on the ground in Chicago . State Police issued a highway caution warning for motorists traveling north and west. Most hazardous were routes extending into the Peru-Lafayette district. Danville before midnight reported about one inch of snow. Ground was also covered in Noblesville and Lebanon.

U. S. Now Ahle To Use A-Bomb And Spare Gls

By United Press

LAS VEGAS, Nev., Nov. 3 |—The U. S. has devéloped a

that can blast enemy concentrations without harming friendly forces in foxholes little more than {half a mile away, it was indicated

today. | - The conclusion that the A-bomb

has been -whittled down to a size feasible for use on the battlefield was drawn by informed sources from data on Thursday's test detonation—the fourth in the second series of nuclear weapon tests at the Frenchman's Flat proving grounds near here. The sources revealed that “guinea pig’ animals tethered from 3000 to 6000 feet from the “ground zero” bulls-éye beneath the explosion—which was touched

i off some 1200 feet in the air—

survived the blast with nothing more than a slight apd momentarily daze from the shock.

4 Dogs Killed

Sheep, the animals‘ used in the test, were protected by cover. however. They survived with no apparent ill effects. But four dogs left in the open wefe killed. Not only would soldiers properly protected by earth or concrete ‘survive the tremendous shock and surface radiation at that ‘range of three-fifths of a mile from “ground zero,” but 90 per cent of their weapons would be intact and useful and they would be able to launch an attack into the firing area, the sources

said. Some 1500 troops actually took part ‘in the tests, but nowhere near as close to the blast point as the animals... The troops were seven miles away, lying feet first toward the blast and bracing themselves on their elbows to

keep from being knocked over by the shock waves.

If Republican Wins, Governor Tells Rally

By IRVING LEIBOWITZ . Gov. Schricker last night publicly lambasted Municipal Judge Alex Clark, the Republican candidate for Mayor, as “the worst appointment I ever made.”

The Governor wound up the Democratic campaign to elect Phillip Bayt Mayor of Indianapolis with an old-fashioned flag-waving, noisy South Side rally that exploded all over town. He told more than 500 wildly cheering Democrats “God pity the people of Indianapolis if Clark is elected Mayor.” Before tonight's slam -bang rally, the campaign was going into the record books as one of
