KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (UP) Knoxville ministers, whose churches are almost in the shadows of the nearby Oak Ridge atomic bomb plant, appear to agreement that the fcomb was a blessing for the American people.

Rev. R. O. Elle, Methodist minister, said the attitude of a group of British clergymen who criticized , use of the bomb against Japan, reminded him of a story which goes: "A boy wanted to, shorten his dog's tail. A neighbor noticed that the poor pup appeared each day with his tail just a little shorter than the day before. When the child was questioned, he replied that he had cut it off

a little at a' time instead of all at once , so it wouldn't hurt so much." . .
