Business Bureau
Makes Final
Retail Estimates
The final estimates by the Bu- |
reau of Business Research, Uni- |
versity of Georgia, Athens, of the |
trend of retail sales in Georgia
during March were close to the
preliminary figures issued on
April 11 by the Bureau. The end- i
of-the-month tabulatich showed
total sales 11 per cent over Feb
ruary, 20 per cent under March
1951, and about 5 per cent above
March 1950. !
Although food sales were down |
slightly from last year’s high level
in most sections of the state, deal
ers zrossed close to one-third more
than two years ago. In Augusta
food sales were up one-fourth or
more in both month-to-month and I
year-to-year comparisens, |
All kinds of business, except |
fuel and a few similar lines, ex
perienced the usual seasonal up
turn in sales between February,
with 25 shopping days this year,
and March, with 26. The apparel
group reported an unusually high
month-to-month increase, Colum
bus leading with some 50 per cent !
heavier sales, f
- A detailed table of the change
in sales by kind of business and
by city appears in the current
issue of GEORGIA BUSINESS,
the Bureau’s free monthly pub=-
lication. : i
FARM INCOME {
Income from crop production
amounted to almost 87 per cent
of the total farm cash income in
Georgia in 1934, but provided only
60 per cent of the total in 1951.
On the other hand, livestock and
poultry furnished only 13 percent
of all the dollars farmers received
in 1934 as compared with 38 per
cent in 1951. - .
U. S. paper money in its present
size was first issued in 1928.

Observers Attest A-Bomb Wouldn't
Change Course Of War In Korea
By DOUGLAS LARSEN
NEA Staff Correspondent.
YUCCA FLAT ATOMIC TEST
SITE, Nev. — (NEA) — It's
ridiculous to think that one
atomic bomb could win the war
in Korea of even give UN forces
there more than a limited tactical
advantage. i
That is one of the first conclu
sions of military observers who
had just witnessed the detonation
of a record-sized atomic bomb.
Developing atomic ground tac
tics was the goal of the Army’s
{participation in the test. It was
the first time U. S. troops at
tempted anything beyond merely
'watching an explosion. It showed
‘ just how much the Army has yet
to learn before it can use A-bombs
in actual combat.
This was the first problem
‘raised by Lt. Gen. Joseph M.
Swing, Sixth Army commander,
a few minutes after he returned
from being one of the closet
willing human beings to an
A-bomb explosion. He was in a
fox-hole a little less than four
miles from ground zero—the spot
directy under the burst.
“The one used in this test was
just too big for satisfactory
ground maneuvers,” he said, “It’s
going to take a lot more tests
like this to show us finally just
what the optimum size is for tac
tical atomic weapons.
* ® %
“We've got to have a smaller
one so that the men can go info
the area of the burst faster,” he
explains. *‘Otherwise, you lose
the value of suprise. If you
have to wait to go a long distance,
the enemy can recover and move
in just as soon as you can, and
what have you gained?”
The test adds weight to the long
standing Army reaction to the
bomb—that it's just another big

boom like any other explosive.
They feel it must be fitted into
the whole system of weapons, and
that it’s not so revolutionary that
it will change the entire science
of warfare. .
Military experts also agreed
that the test wiped out any com
placency which the military
might have based on the theory
that A-bombs would make up for
the lack of manpower among the
North Atlantic. Treaty countries.
Other official military observers
went beyond that to point out
that the blast proved just how in
effective an A-bomb would be
against Communist troops in
Korea. Soldiers participating in
the test were four miles from

shallow fox-holes four-and-one
half to five feet deep.
They had no special protective
clothing or equipment and came
out completely unhurt, physically
or phychologically. Swing stated
that they could have been much
closer—and will be for the next
such test.
. . % =
This means that at best even
such an oversized atomic bomb
could only neutralize a flat area
considerably less than four miles
in diameter. But more important,
the situation in Korea, or even
what could be expected in most
of Europe in case of attack by
the Reds, is competely different.
This reporter recently returned
from visits to the front-line in
Korea. UN patrols behind enemy
lines reported the Communists
have dug into burkers, deep in
the sides of the mountains and
topped with heavy logs and
earth. In some cases they are
dug in this fashion up to eight
miles behind the line.
This makes it apparent that
such a bomb as the one just deto
nated, even under the ideal cgn
ditions of the test, could not pro
vide even a complete break
through corridor in the Chinese
Communists line for the attacking
UN troops.
This belief is backed up by the
troops who took part in the test
who had also seen action in Korea,
Lt. Justus W. Gromme of Long
Beach, Cal.,, who led troops dur
ing a year of the roughest fight
ing inh Korea, has a typical re
actiol: =~ ~ .
: “After having seen the bomb
-exploded at such close range
‘l'm convinced that it would °be
a waste of money to try such a
weapon in Korea. We were on
flat ground and in shallow fox
holes and none of us got hurt or
‘were even temporarily stunned.
With the Communists so well dug
in in bunkers, and with all the
high hills in Korea, you’d have
to drop one of these bombs right
on top of a patrol in the open to
do much damage to them. It
would take too many A-bombs
to do much of a job there.”
* * *
Among enlisted men who were
part of the test, Sgt. Larry L. Hall
of Yreka, Cal.,, who was in the
thick of the Korean fighting for!
more than a year, also gives a |
typical comment. \
“We all used to talk about how
the Army should end the Korean
war with A-bomb. After go
ing through this test I realize how
silly that was. We heard a big
boom and saw a big light four
milés. away. But with all the |
hills in Korea and the way the |
'Reds burrow into those hills II
don’t think you'd kill many of the
enemy even a quarter of a mile ,
uv.'d}'.” :
One of the most outstanding |
radiation experts in the world |
who saw the test, Merril Eisen- !
bud, confirmed this general opin
ion. Based on a description of a
typical Chinese bunker he said
it could be possible for a man to
survive in such a shelter even as
close as 1000 feet from ground
Zero.
At least, he says, men could go
on fighting for a considerable
time before radiation would fell
them under Korean conditions of
natural defense. He pointed out
similar cases of persons who had
survived who had been in caves
at Hiroshima and Nagasaki very
close to ground zero.
Asked whether the psychologi
cal effect of the A-bomb in Korea
might not be worth its use there,
another Korean vet who was an
officer replied: 2
“You woundn’t gambie on what
psychological effect anything
would have on the Commies.
They don’t react to any given
formula.”
