Lelliott said he believes that the terrific heat and pressure of theh bomb explosion will change the containing envelope of the bomb into a mass of radioactive vapor. Elliott continued not Only would the explosion result in the libera Tion of inconceivable Power an heat but All the remaining in combined atoms would become radioactive and Emit vast amounts of High Speed protons neutrons Alpha particles and deadly Gamma rays a rays. These particles and rays would Render All substances in their Range radioactive which in turn would become extremely dangerous As new sources of deadly emanations just As any material in an atomic pile becomes radioactive. Som substances would soon lose their radioactivity but others would continue to be radioactive for  or. Linus Pauling one of the world s Best known chemists has said that a bomb radioactivity would be so great that no persons animals or plants anywhere on the Earth would be Safe for years. The radioactivity would permeate the entire atmosphere and if people and other jiving things escaped serious radioactive injury the would still be subject to changes in heredity. It has even been said that aggressors would not use the weapon for fear of the radioactivity getting Back into their own countries. Elliott said he believes that workable plan of controlling the a bomb becomes a condition of the survival of  his last Day Edah rapids Iowa feb.
