First A-Bomb (Continued From Page 1) to catch up in the postwar atom race. The London News Chronicle said Prime Minister Churchill was thinking not only of military security when he imposed an edict of absolute secrecy over the test. "He believes Britain knows a trick or two which the Americans would like to know. He wants to use it as a trump card in Washington to settle a long-standing grievance," the paper said.
