U S. Advances on Hydrogen Bomb Development
President Truman announced the United States will continue work on the hydrogen bomb under the aim of defending the nation amid the arms race with the Soviet Union. The Air Force will enforce a guard line around major atomic plants with flight plans required for aircraft within ten miles, and defense officials say the move is not tied to current international developments. Congressional reaction ranges from strong approval to cautious hope for world peace as scientists and lawmakers weigh the new weapon's implications.
