Production of new and deadlier Atomic bombs boosted this week
Washington June 29 U.P. A $25 million plant at Hanford Washington went into operation this week to tool plutonium into atomic bomb cores. The facility aims to produce the explosive cores for the new model bombs tested at Eniwetok in 1948 on a production line. It promises to speed up the growth of the A-bomb stockpile and follows reports of substantial energy gains in tests. Brien McMahon says only 24 people know the stockpile size.
