HEADING SOUTHWARD
MUNSAN, UP — Allied radar

Red planes—presumably Mig jets
—were spotted by a big Allied
radar station on Cho Island, deep
behind Communist lines off North

U.S. Production of
H-Bomb Material
Much Advanced
WASHINGTON, 3— The Uni
ted States announced Thursday
it is approaching “first major pro
duction” of materials for hydro
gen bombs, and said that in the
first half of 1953 development of
atomic weapons has “substantial
ly advanced.”
It said more fissionable mater
ial, the stuff which produces the
explosive power of A-bombs,
was produced than in any pre
vious half-year.
The government announced al
so that it is working toward de
velopment of a super-speed atom
ic powered submarine even be
fore tests have been run on two
A-subs now nearing completion
and rated potentially faster than
ordinary underseas craft.
The Atomic Energy Commis
sion, which runs the nation’s at
omic program, said in its semi
annual report to Congress that
last spring’s weapons tests in Nev
ada disclosed such valuable infor
mation that it will not be neces
sary to hold full-scale tests there
this fall, as originally planned.
Those tests, the commission
said, indicated “several very prof
j itable avenues to new and im
proved weapons” which would af
ford “the opportunity of substan
tially greater atomic weapons cap
ability for the United States.” •
It said the last of the 11 shots
in the spring series—a detonation
rated by observers as the most
powerful yet set off in this coun
try—had “obviated the necessity
of a full-scale test series original
ly planned [in Nevada] for the
fall of 1953.”

Elimination of Judgeship
At Nome Would Be
Tragedy Says Cooper
ANCHORAGE— Elimination of
the judgeship at Nome would be
a “tragedy,” Judge J. Earl Cooper
of the Second Division said this
week.
“You can’t measure justice by
statistics and that’s the only way
you could justify elimination of
that court,” he declared.
Judge Cooper’s comments were
made in connection with rumors
that a revamping of the judicial
system of Alaska is in the offing
and may be one of the reasons
why the new administration has
delayed court and law enforce
ment appointments.
The possibility of dropping the
permanent court at Nome has
been mentioned, with a judge
from another division traveling
to the far north community when
a sufficient number of cases ac
cumulate.
“If we were a slate and the dis
trict court functioned only as a
federal court, then maybe it would
be all right. So long as the court
handles territorial matters, I think
the people in that area are entitled
to have free access to the court at
all times,” Judge Cooper declared.
