British Press Says New Atomic Bomb Will Influence Japs By HENRY B. JAMESON LONDON, Aug.

7 AP A new surrender ultimatum to Japan, backed by the threat of the atomic bomb, was forecast in the British press today and the question was raised whether the United States and Britain would see fit to share the secret with other nations. BritisT experts on military, scientiiic and international affairs, busy making calculations on the effects of the awesome development, said the bomb would influence all future international relations and produced the "alarming problem" of how to control it. "How far is will be possible or wis to diffuse generally over the world the knowledge of how to make these bombs poses a vitally importai.t problem," said Prof. A Japanese Imperial commun 1 ique broadcast by Radio ToKyo effects of the terrifying new weapon both on bringing this war to an early end and on shaping the world of tomorrow.

While meager U.S. disclosure said one bomb had hit with such devastating force that the city was hidden in a towering cloud of dust, the Japanese talked of new "bombs." Their use of the plural indicated the blast was so shattering they could not believe only one bomb had struck. The Nipponese communique said a number of B-29s made tho attack with "considerable" destruction.

The admission was typical of the Japanese habit of underestimating damage, because U.S sources indicated the great cloud of dust that rose from Hiroshima might have contained vaporized buildings.
