Sir. Portraying the picture of the atomic explosion, please bring that picture before the eye of your mind, a column three miles in diameter, ten miles high, and a mushroom 100 miles in diameter resting on top of it. Now, in view of the fact that the effective range of such a bomb may be within an 80 Miles’s radius, just imagine a hollow, transparent, cylindrical column of 80 miles, radius, rising upward, to meet the lower edge of the 100 miles mushroom, the mushroom covering this 80 miles cylinder across like a lid, and itself resting on the central three mile round column, which stands like the central pole of a tent. Now the picture of the atomic edifice is complete, and it is all fire. How, majestic, how awe-inspiring. But just have a peep into the interior of it. 0 what a havoc is being played therein. A storm of fires raging and consuming everything. Mad earthquakes furiously pulling down buildings, men, women, children and brutes being roasted alive lf the feast of the devil, and so on so forth, in a fire closed in on them. A fire from which there happens to be no exit, nor emergency door.
