DEVASTATION visited on Hir
oshima by the first atomic bomb
in history is specified in the
accompanying official Air Force
picture at the left, revealing the
widespread effect of the weapon
which stirred the world and
shocked the Japanese empire
into peace negotiations.
MAP AT RIGHT shows how Ja
pan was encircled by Allied
forces which, growing ever
stronger as the enemy grew
weaker, made the Jap case hope
less. America’s amazing atomic
bomb was the final crusher.

lands will be all that’s left of
the once • mighty Jap empire
after terms of Potsdam declar
ation are enforced.

Americans, scores of miles away, who felt the cataclysmic effect of the experimental atom bomb
exploded in New Mexico last July thought It was an earthquake. And well they might, for reports
from the Jap city of Hiroshima after its blasting by an atom bomb indicate that many rnore people
were killed than died in the great Japanese earthquake of 1923, one of the worst single disasters Ir
modern times. Another indication of the lethal power of atomic energy is the comparison of Hire,
shima’s death toll with total of Americans killed in World War I.
