|U.S. Officials Say
Super-Bomb Will
Gain Propaganda
WASHINGTON (JV-Some Pen
tagon atomic specialists said
Thursday they believe the Soviet
Union would get more propa
ganda mileage than military value
out of any super nuclear bomb
with the blast power of 100-mil
lion tons of TNT.
U. S. officials have been dis
cussing the possibilities ever since
j Soviet Premier Khrushchev claim
ed three weeks ago that his sci
entists were prepared to develop
such a superbomb.
There was no sign that the
United States, which is believed
to have H-bombs up to 20 mega
tons, was being stampeded into
a race with the Soviets to get
the monster weapon first.
“The propaganda value is
greater than anything else.” one
official said when told of the So
viet announcement of plans tc
push ahead with creation of a
superbomb. J
U. S. atomic experts stress that
there is no arithmetic progression
in the effectiveness of nuclear
weapons — that a 100-megaton
bomb such as the Soviets are talk
ing about would not devastate a
five times greater area than a
20-megaton weapon. According to
some estimates, the destruction
range would be about double and
the total area of destruction about
four times as great.
The key, they say, is the effi
ciency of the bomb — and they
claim the American nuclear bombs
are very efficient. Available of
ficials couid give no information
on the efficiency of Soviet nu
clear weapons.
One source familiar with the
views of military atomic sci
entists said, “we have the capacity
and we have the manufacturing
processes” to go ahead with a su
per-bomb, but “our people said
there is no point” in doing so.
“What’s the sense of killing a
city twice? was the way it was
put.
What was meant was that 20
megaton weapons already are con
sidered big enough to lay waste
to any target.

cellent health, a high school grad
uate or in his senior year, and
