On August 6. i945 the nation was electrified b0 President TTtk E man's announcement that U. S. airmen had dropped an atomic ' omb on Hiroshima. Japan. The teeming cllt‘ of 343,000 people was b0 per cent obliterated. with only 2.8 of its 6.9 square mile aria un- damaged. The place was iitcroi- ly crushed to earth and today-a year later-it presents much the same picture of complete ‘dtrsola- tion. A little i-ebuildinz has berii attempted. The railroad station has been rebuilt and an effort made to restore‘ transportation. People live in tit: ruins or in makeshift wooden shacks. S are in operation. often in vti s. ed buildings. A few residents have attempted to resume business some opening souvenir shops to snare the Yankee dollar. These photos, bv Tom Shafrr. NEA-Aczne correspondent. show typical scenes in Hiroshima-one year after.
