new type of bomb
to be given trial
Washington. March lb- A new
t > po bomb, billed as an inst rument
of terrifying destructive power, has
won a chance to prove on land and
sea the sweeping clalm^s made by its
inventor.
The army, and navy agreed yesterday
to conduct thorough tests to afford
Lester P. Barlow, the Baltimore
inventor, opportunity to demonstrate
his recently developed weapon. The
tests will start in the near future, j
The Barlow bomb, also described
as an "aerial mine." relies on a mixture
of liquid oxygon and carbon for
its explosive power. A description so
impressed a congressional committee
last week that the usual stenographic
notes Were ordered burned, lest the
secret of sue It a potentially valuable
military acquisition fall Into undesirable
bands.
In asserting to the test program,
army and navy officials manifested
.skepticism that the bomb was as rev
u" i'?uary as represented. A Joint

1 conGRex/man J P'RIChrrdj* I
Washington, March 19.?Congressman
J. P. Richards, Fifth District of
South Carolina, Introduced a bill in
the house today to restore certain
benefits to World War veterans, suf-v
fering from paralysis, paresis or
blindness, or who are helpless or bedridden
and for other purposes.
The bill follows: "Be it enaeted
by the senate and house of representatives
of the United States of America
in congress assembled, that on
and after date of enactment of this
act, any World War veteran suffering
from paralysis, paresis or blindness,
or who -is helpless or bedridden "ft*
the result of any disability, and has
been refused compensation or pension
on account of charges or findings of
"misconduct or wllfull misconduct,"
shall be awarded compensation under
the laws and interpretations governing
this class of cases prior to the
enactment of Public Law No. 2, Seventy-third
Congress, the said charges
or findings notwithstanding: Provided
that the language herein contained
shall not be construed to reduce or
discontinue compensation authorized
under the provisions of section 26 of
Public law Numbered 141, Seventythird
Congress: Provided further,
that where a World War Veteran dies
or has died from disease or injury, j
service connection of which is or
would have been reestablished undbr
the provisions of this act. his surviving
widow, child, or children, if otherwise
eligible thereto, shall be awarded
death compensation under Public
Law Numbered 484, Seventy-third
Richards states that the bill proposes
to correct the flagrant injustice
against many World War voterans,
\*ho are totally helpless, but have
been barred from compensation on account
of bureau rulings that the veteran
in question suffered disability on
account of his own misconduct.
Richards further stated that the
bHl only places the World War veteran
on the same footing the Span- j
ish-American War Veteran enjoys ati
this time. At present the Spanish-American
veteran is not barred from j
compensation on account of findings'
of misconduct. j
