Military Authorities, By DALE CLARK BALTIMORE, March 15 (AP) -Inventor Lester P.

Barlow is ready to show the nation's highest military authorities a deadly aerial bomb which he says will kill every living thing within 1,000 foot radius when it explodes, spreading death and destruction with detonating waves that no one in its path can escape. In a small workshop in a wooded thicket a safe mile from the Glenn Martin airplane factory, the short, stocky inventor today described the machine he wants government. The military and naval committees of both the Senate and House and the Secretaries of War and Navy will gather Monday in Washington to hear about it. It's called gimite the first three letters taken from the name of the Martin plant in whose homb sion Barlow is employed). It 1s liquid -carbon explosive.

And Barlow Insists it is safe to handle. The formula is hi's secret. It is that formula, Barlow say, that makes the bomb safe to handle, although too delicate for practical use. other lisuld oxygen explosives one are "I can fly 20,000 feet over a with tleship one and of put these it out bombs," of he commission ed. "I don't have to hit it.

I know I can get within 500 feet of it. And when she goes off 30 above the surface I'll get the guncrews and controlling crews and put the ship out of commission. Another bomb set to go off 30 or 40 feet beneath the surface would finish the job. The detonating waves do the work. Unlike fragmentation bombs which spew shrapnel and damage only what they hit, the aerial mines blast the air the same way that depth bombs create a crushing der-water force, Barlow sald.

Such bombs exploded in the air over a battlefield would result in instantaneous, wholesale slaughter. Barlow wants the government to test his bombs with goats, tethered 50 feet apart over a wide area. The Washington Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals opposed that suggestion today. Such a test could be made only in a large uninhabited area. Barlow thinks western Texas or Florida could be used.
