Air Force Discloses
Secrets of Giant
B-36-H to Reporters
By Harry Lever
Star Staff Cerr*ipend*nt
CARSWELL AIR FORCE
BASE, Tex., May 26.—Many of
the long-kept secrets of the
B-36H, 10-engined intercon
tinental bomber—largest in the
world—can now be made known,
known.
For the first time, the Air
Force has permitted a handful
of reporters to fly simulated
radar and visual bomb runs
aboard the heretofore heavily
restricted heavy bomber, which
for a long time to come will be
the Sunday punch of the
Strategic Air Command. The
only things not shown were the
still secret bomb sight and the
ways in which enemy communi
cations can be jammed.
I was among a group of news
men who made a nine-hour tac
tical bombing mission aboard
the $3.5 million ship, with the
flight originating and ending at
this base —home of the B-36H.
We "bombed” Dallas and several
other Southwest cities at alti
tudes ranging from 10,000 to
nearly 25,000 feet.
230-Foot Wingspan.
The first impression one gets
of the bomber is backed up by
its impressive specifications. Its
weight is about 358,000 pounds.
Its wingspan is 230 feet. The air
plane is 162 feet long and nearly
47 feet high.
The B-36H, the latest model
ot the B-36 type in existence, has
six Pratt & Whitney 3,800-
horsepower propeller-driven
pusher engines, and four Gen
eral Electric J-47 jet engines of,
5.200 pounds thrust each. This
gives the bomber about 45,000-
horsepower, which can drive it
more than 435 miles an hour.
The propellers are a massive
19 feet in diameter. The B-36H
can carry 30,000 gallons of fuel,
has a nonstop range of 10,000
miles with 10,000 pounds of 1
bombs, or half that distance with
84,000 pounds.
The tremendous horsepower
was evident to our group as we ;
listened to a 35-minute engine
check over the intercom system.
Before the engine warmup, Lt.
Col. Artist Prichard, the aircraft
commander, and his 15-man
crew had checked the B-36H in
other ways. Col. Prichard, who is
with SAC s 7th Bomb Group, is
only 30, but he already has more
than 2,700 hours in the B-36H.
Maj. George A. Marshall, first
flight engineer, announced:
"Power is set across the board.!
Ready to go.”
The B-36H cleared about 2,-
500 feet of Carswell’s 8.500 feet
runway before it became air
borne. Then Col. Prichard gave
the order to cut in the jets, on
pods far out on the wings. At
once there was a tremendous
surge, as the bomber climbed at:
a steep angle. Whatever was'
loose in the cockpit flew through '
the air. The newsmen required
all their strength to hang on.
An altitude of about 25,000
feet was reached in about 40
minutes, and the jets were cut
off. The long vapor trails they
made in the sky swiftly disap
peared. At altitudes of more
than 40,000 feet, the jet engines
are more efficient than the pis
ton engines, but they are mostly
used for the takeoffs and land
ings. Their fuel lasts 20 hours.
Bombing by Radar.
After some flying at about 25,-
000 feet, over several Texas cities,
the bomber dropped down to
about 10,000 feet at the begin
ning of the fifth hour. Its pri
mary mission was to “bomb” Dal
las by radar.
Several times, the B-36H ap
proached Greenville, Tex., its
"IP,” or initial - point about 37 !
miles from Dallas. It made test
runs between the two places,
testing wind direction, establish
ing a bombing pattern, checking
ground speed and so on. Theo
retically, it was out of sight at j
about 40,000 feet and using radar, ‘
but the idea was to give the peo- j
pie on the ground a chance to
see the ship on a bomb run.
When the test runs were com
pleted towards the eighth hour,
the radar bombardier, Lt. Col. I
Earl H. Yaden, said he was ready, t
The objective was the Ford Mo- :
tor Co. plant in Dallas. The!
B-36H made for the IP and there
completed a 180-degree turn. It
started on the bomb run.
As it neared Dallas. Col. Prich
ard called tersely over the in
tercom :
"20 seconds ... 10 seconds .. .
five seconds . . .
"Bombs away!”
Mission Accomplished.
When the B-36H landed, it was
learned there had been a toler
ance of only a few seconds either
way, which meant, in effect, that
tne automobile plant theoreti
cally, was no more. Brig Gen.
Joe William Kelly, acting com
mander of the Eighth Air Force
at Carswell, expressed his pleas
ure at this accuracy.
The reporters were given a
:hance to fly the giant, under the
tutelage of Capt. Joseph G. Soic,
co-pilot. I was at the controls
for about three minutes, and
then the airplane began to yaw
a little. Not being a pilot by
trade, I glanced uneasily at
Capt. Soic, and with a look that
bordered on sympathetic sorrow,
he took over again..

ATOMIC SHELL FIRE—Las Vegas, Nev.—Official observers
(foreground) watch the atomic cloud rise from the first
atomic shell burst. The nuclear missile, fired from the United
States 280-millimeter cannon, explodes 500 feet above a
target on Frenchman Flat, 65 miles northwest of Las Vegas.

Atomic Cannon Takes
Established Part in
U. 5. Defense Plans
By the Associated Press
LAS VEGAS, Nev., May 26.
The atomic cannon is an estab
lished reality today in America's
defense plans. Nuclear scientists
have compressed the virtual
equivalent of a standard A-bomb
into a shell only 11 inches in
diameter.
i These appear to be the princi
: pal results of yesterday's highly
successful first firing of a nuclear
shell from the Army’s 280-milli
meter gun.
But scientists of the Atomic
Energy Commission are not re
laxing, although the 10th and
last scheduled test of the 1953
spring series is over. With the
plaudits of defense leaders and
legislators ringing in their ears,
the AEC technicians are discus
sing plans for still another test
within the next month at Nevada
Proving Grounds.
Fare Another Problem.
Test Director Carroll L. Tyler
will not disclose the nature of
the experiment under considera
tion. but indicates there is one
more problem Dr. Alvin C.
! Graves, scientific chief, and hgs
aides wish to solve before going
back to the nuclear workshop at
Los Alamos, N. Mex.
There is hardly anything short
of the hydrogen bomb, however,
which could impress observers
| more than this historic cannon
1 shot which whistled 7 miles
across Frenchman Flat and ex
i ploded with A-bomb brilliancy at
! 500-foot elevation.
The blast snapped off 50-foot
1 trees and flipped railroad box
cars and Army tanks like toys,
reports from viewers indicated.
The full effects on various types
of army construction, materiel
, and clothing will be the subject
of study for weeks.
Some 2.525 troops came
through maneuvers without re
ported injury following the blast.
A flight of 12 B-36 bombers from
j Carswell, N. Mex., Air Force Base
i roared over the site. More than
j 20.000 armed forces men re
| ceived atomic training on land
or in the air during the spring
series.
Play’s Hob with Air Traffic.
The-blast’s radioactive cloud,
scooting northeast with a high
wind, played hob with air traf
fic in parts of Nevada, Utah.
Wyoming, Montana and Idaho
for five hours.
The Civil Aeronautics Ad
ministration in Salt Lake City
asked pilots to ground their
planes or take routes to avoid
the cloud area. The request was
withdrawn when all areas were
certified safe.
The nuclear shell, described
as less than three feet long and
weighing about 1,000 pounds,
caused no damage to the giant
cannon, it was indicated. The
| projectile, which takes its place
|in the Nation’s fast-growing
stockpile of atomic weapons, was
termed “a concentrated capsule
of what once filled an entire
bomb bay.”
This phrase was used by Rep
resentative Cole, chairman of
the Joint Atomic Energy Com
| mittee, in summing up the gen
eral views of 79 congressmen
who watched the test. “A mar
velous new gadget,” Mr! Cole
concluded.

than a million people owe the
Government $856 million in taxes
and many of the delinquents are
Government employes, the Eve
ning Sun said.
An article by John T. Ward
reported that on March 31 there
were 1,179,454 delinquent tax ac
counts totaling $856,949,086. That
is an all-time high and more
than enough to pay a month's
interest on the entire national
debt.
The delinquent figures are for
1951 and before. The Govern
ment can’t collect income taxes
due for longer than six years.
The newspaper said that 82,-
669 delinquent income tax ac
counts amounting to $17,317,000
were in Washington and the two
adjacent Maryland counties df
Prince Georges and Montgom
ery, where many Government
workers live. It estimated that
at least half of the total money
due in that area was owed by
Federal employes.
The Evening Sun said the
Government can’t attach pay
checks of its employes as it can
other taxpayers.
In all of Maryland there are
45.014 accounts with $24,666,349
due in taxes.
