WASH. -- Dr. Enrico Fermi, an Italian scientist who participated in developing the atomic bomb in the United States almost discovered its secret 10 years ago which probably would have made it available to the Nazis. This was disclosed recently? by Col FrankHn T. Matthias, director of the Richland, Wash., atomic bomb plant "Dr. Fermi was so close to dis covering the secret of plutonium back in 1935," Colonel Matthias related, "that he probably would have published his knowledge to the world had it not been for a little platinum in his test tubeis which nullified the action he was looking for. "He told me that he was very glad his experiments then had 'failed, for there is no doubt the Nazis would'have ioosed the terror of the atomic bomb oh the world if the Fascists in Italy had possessed the knowledge and passed it on to them. "Germany had all the basic knowledge long before we started, but lacked the facilities and knowhow for putting the facts together. In the United States, 2,000 top flight scientists worked anonymously to bring scattered bits of knowledge into effective military tise." Plutonium produced at Richland was put into bombs which were assembled in New Mexico just before they were sent overseas, Colonel Matthias explained. He said the United States had more atomic bombs ready to drop on Japan when the war ended and that production of the new superweapon has continued since Japan surrendered. <By Diek Hyatt) .

Tiny Indian Ocean Atoll Fuels East-Bound Ships LONDON. -- A secret naval base on a tiny Indian ocean atoll, the admiralty discloses, guarded Britain's lifeline to India since a few weeks after Japan's entry into the war. Construction on the Addu island anchorage, south of India and 500 miles west of Ceylon, waa quietly started by royal marines in September, 1941, and the first convoy put into port four months later. Since then, British troopships and naval vessels have used Addu regularly for refueling. The Queen Mary, shuttling Australian soldiers home from the Middle East, made One stop. In 1941, during the first three Jhonths the marines were carving away the jungles, almost a fourth <nf them suffered tropical diseases and had to be evacuated. Climatic conditions brought growth of microerganisms that ate the akin away from the flesh. Workers waded thigh deep in ilack, foul-smelling mud, fighting off fiant land craba, to build a four mile runway acrosa one swamp. flans Are Being Speeded To Get DDT to the Publ'c NEW YORK.--War's end quickened the chemical industry's plans for mass distribution of DDT, the world's most effective insect killer, but medical experts warned that it must be used cautiously. L- Dr. Paul A. Neal, senior surgeon of the Industrial Hygiene labora tOry, National Institute of Health, found that careless handling of DDT residues--that part of a DDT spray jrhich remains when the liquid-carrying agent has evaporated--may cause toxic effects in humans. DDT is a tasteless white powder When it is dissolved in liquids to make a apray it assumes a com fhercial name of the manufacturer's choice. >Neal pointed out that DDT should be ' used under conditions which ex elude the heavy contamination of food." This means caution in spray ing the new insecticide liberally in kitchens or other food • storage places in the home, he said. Commission Uses Gavel Made From Historic Log CHARLESTON. W.
