-including a
Bomh Acquitted
Of Bad Weather,
Tomado Charges
By JOSEPH L. MYLER
WASHINGTON, June II 'C.P>—
The atomic bomb was acquitted by
the experts Thursday of any re-
sponsibility for this season's series
•f tornado disasters.
For a while it appeared that a
politician was appealing the ver-
iict of science. But after saying he
believed "definitely" that the tor-
nadoes were traceable to the Nev-
ada A-bomb tests. Rep. James E.
Van Zandt. R-Pa. took it aQ back.
Meanwhile, the Atomic Energy
Commission and the Weather Bo-
••esn's top scientists had asserted
thei-■> was no connection between
the big bomb and the big winds
-'hich so far this month have cost
it least 243 tives.
Meteorologists have explained
•ften sinee the advent of the atom-
c age that A-bombs lack the pow-
r to produce anything but extrem-
y local weather events.
Most members of the House-Sen-
ite Atomic Energy committee ac-
■epted the scientific explanations
if th" weather experts. But Wed-
lesday, referring to the recent
ornado tragedies, one member.
Van Zandt, told the United Press:
",I think definitely that these
Mows can fc-? traced to the recent
eries of tests in Nevada."
"i know," Van Zandt added
"that the experts will deny that
his is possible."
The experts did deny it and so.
n effect, did Van Zandt later. He
'sfiK-d a statement saying;
"Nothing I said was intended te
nrficate a connection between the
recent tornadoes and the testing of
itomic bombs in Nevada."
Van Zandt added he had not at-
tended this season's tests in Ne-
-ada and had received no nrforma-
inn about them "which could in
my way have a bearing on thf
■question of weather."
Scientists have been studying
itomic explosions since 1945 and
:n report after report have stated
*-hey were unable to detect any in-
lication that A-bombs have any
general weather effect.

President's assurances in his
speech at Minneapolis Wednesday
that his new "team" of civilians

\ir Force funds and the plan to

Other congressional develop-
ments:

R-Ill. said Thursday he expects

tee to cut President Eisenhower's
foreign aid program by at least

uled a secret session Thursday to

ace Stoneham—at least far tk«
rest of the season.
Stoneham, whose quick interven-
tion was credited with cooling ojf
Leo, followed the retraction with a
statement backing Durocher all the
vay. There had been reports that
Stoneham had grown tireii of LeoS
continuous feuding with the um-
pires and might be ready to fire
him.
"Leo's arguments with umpires
have never caused me to wonder
whether he should be retained as
manager," Stoneham said. "Leo
popped off, has retracted his
charge and that's the end of tha
matter as far as I'm concerned."
