Atom Bomb Shock Causes

Arrested Growth

Palo Alto, California, Apr. 5-Dr William W. Greulleh, Stanford University anatory professor, held that Japanese children surviving the atomic bombings of Jiroshima and Nagasaki suffered a tem-. porary growth stoppage due to the terrific shock of the blasts.

Tie said exidence of arrested growth could be seen clearly in X-rays of Japanese children subjected to the bombings..

Greulich and his wife spent last summer in Japan taking mea- surements and extensive X-rays of more than 1,000 Japanese children. He said the temporary growth stoppage was not a speciale effect. of radiation on the bones but appeared to be the result of the terrifle shook, to which the children's bodies were subjected. said the growth stoppage was similar to what normally follows * lic, serious illness or major vitamin deficiency.

Greulich said all the children X-rayed had received sufficient radiation to suffer temporary lose of hair and other symptoms of radiation sickness.—United Press.
