  The Salt Lake City Public Library is sold on the idea. “Literacy specialists admit that children who read below the level of their fellow pupils are often afraid of reading aloud in a group, often have lower self-respect, and regard reading as a headache,” said Lisa Myron, manager of the children’s department.

   Last November, the two groups started “Dog Day Afternoon” in the children's department of the main library. About 25 children attended each of the four Saturday-afternoon classes, reading for half an hour. Those who attended three of the four classes received a “pawgraphed” book at the last class.

   The program was so successful that the library plans to repeat it in April, according to Dana Thumpowsky, public relations manager.

   Nuclear weapons were first developed in theUnited Statesduring the Second World War, to be used againstGermany. However by the time the first bombs were ready for use, the war withGermanyhad ended and, as a result, the decision was made to use the weapons againstJapaninstead.HiroshimaandNagasakihave suffered the consequence of this decision to the present day.

   The real reasons why bombs were dropped on two heavily-populated cities are not altogether clear. A number of people in 1944 and early 1945 argued that the use of nuclear weapons world be unnecessary, since American Intelligence was aware that some of the most powerful and influential people inJapanhad already realized that the war was lost, and wanted to negotiate a Japanese surrender. It was also argued that, sinceJapanhas few natural resources, a blockade by the American navy would force it to surrender within a few weeks, and the use of nuclear weapons would thus prove unnecessary. If a demonstration of force was required to end the war, a bomb could be dropped over an unpopulated area like a desert, in front of Japanese observers, or over an area of low population insideJapan, such as a forest. Opting for this course of action might minimize the loss of further lives on all sides, while the power of nuclear weapons would still be adequately demonstrated.
