pointing out that bombs dropped

and Ellsworth Air Base at Rapid
City, S. D., would expose one-third
of Nebraska's population to radio-
active fallout, many fatally. The
Lincoln Air Force Base is assumed
to be a rarimarv taromt rt-

"Every bit of evidence says that
evacuation will work," be said in
Mobile, Ala., where 49,000 people
were moved to the city's edge"

"There is no limit to the size
of bombs that can be created
by scientists" and atomic manu
facturers?Peterson said. "There is
nothing in America the Russians
cant do". 'They have the same

He said he had gathered from

phases, true latter involving "utili

At the Yalta Conference, the

necessary to bring Russia into the
war against Japan, Dr. John Mor
rison, visiting professor of geo

interview Monday.
But, the former chief of the East
European Branch of the State De

on Europe argued there was 'no
need for concessions., he asserted.
Russia would have entered the
war out of national self-interest.
Japan, Morrison said, had an

Manchuria. "
But Roosevelt, the geographer
said, was "under Army and Air
Force pressure to get Russia into
the war for sound military rea
sons." Considered one of the nation's
top three political geographers by
Dr. Colbert Held, assistant orof es-
