JUST WONDERIN’
I wonder if the atom, the fundamental atom,
Has really met its Waterloo at last,
And if, when torn asunder, quite rudely torn asunder,
Will demonstrate its prowess in a blast—
A blast that’s so tremendous, terrific and stupendous,
That every Jap on earth will stand aghast.
' The advent of the atomic bombs seems to mark the culmination of another human adventure, in which the questioning mind of man has sought, found and harnessed the ultimate powers of death and destruction. The imagination staggers before.this latest weapon of war, the mind fails to paint
its future in a world that is turning its thoughts to ways of
peaceful and orderly living.
If the atomic bomb tends to shorten the war with Japan and hastens the day of peace, its mission will have been
accomplished. We hope that it may then be relegated to the
realm of things no longer needed; we can scarcely hope for a
world ruled by peace and justice if this terrible machine is produced in quantities and its use become familiar to those whose
ulterior purposes it might be made to serve.
The idea of splitting of crushing atoms is not a new one;
a number of years have passed since first we learned that the
dear old atomic theory was passe, that the atom was divisible
and that it had been made to yield up strange and hitherto unknown forces and powers which, it was hoped could be used
to augment the comfort, well being and happiness of man.
Another apple has been snatched from the tree of wisdom; new frontiers were disclosed, far horizons beckoned.
Scientists the world over began to study the new elements, in
the hope of discovering their origin and nature and so began
blazing new trails into that realm where the secrets of the universe are caught, harnessed and made to serve the needs of
‘humanity. Strange, that the first world’s shaking result of all
this concentrated effort and study, should have been — the,
atomic bomb.
Shocked as we are by the power and deadly potential of
this new weapon of warfare, we may feel quite sure that it
will soon complete its mission and pass away, to make way
or implements of peace in a world in which fear gives place
to confidence and man’s inhumanity to man is no longer tenThe search for knowledge will go on and on, the new
frontiers will be conquered, men will still hear the call of far
horizons. Out of the destruction and carnage of the present,
will come those things for which we long. The forces of the
unvierse will be found understood and used by those who seek
and these secrets will be made to serve creatively and constructively in the better days to come.—A. Merriam Conner.
IF JAPAN HAD WON
England has learned, through the seizure of a_ secret
document of the nazi high command, what her fate would
have been under conquest by Hitler. The English were to be a
slave people, their country transformed into Germany's main
war workshop to turn out weapons and materiel for nazi use
against Russia. This German plan may convey a mild approximation of this ration’s fate had the Japanese conquered
America.
The nazi blueprint for English enslavement provides in
part: Deportation to the continent of all Englishmen between
17 and 45, and their replacement in England with German
workmen; this to prevent sabotage. Death to any English
person impeding the nazi war effort. National laws maintained only if they were “not contrary to the purposes of the occupation.”” Rigid rationing, with the people's health to be
considered important only in relation to the. slave nation’s
efficiency in production and to_preclude epidemics among
their nazi masters.
Japan’s plans as would-be victor over the United States.
if they are ever found, almost certainly are -of even sterner
stuff. The nazi regime for England embodied cold, merciless
efficiency in exploitation. But Japan’s warlords, by their
combat savagery and torturing of prisoners and interned civilians have made evident an almost psychopathis hatred for
the American people, such as Hitler felt toward Poles and
: Jews.
The intrinsic cost of victory in this Pacific war, in American lives, in suffering and in treasure is incalculable. Yet
we know, as the English know, that the price will be cheap,
even though it should impoverish this generation and_ its
children and its children’s children. There can be no price tag
on the dignity of liberty of a civilized people.—Contributed.
WORLD SERIES FOR G. I.’s
American generals and admirals have seen their GI's and
gobs do the finest job of fighting leaders could wish for. Also
they have seen, wistfully, nostalgically, hanging around their
radios when off duty, listening to sports broadcasts from
home. Listening most nostalgically when that king of sports
classics, the World Series, is on the air.
_ This autumn the World Series is going to be brought to
those men. It cannot be exactly that, of course—but the next
best; thing. The American and National leagues, by personal
request of Navy Secretary Forrestal and Admiral Nimitz, will
send the team that wins the world series on a 90-day tour of
bases throughout the Pacific front.
_ Nor will the soldiers and sailors merely watch the big
leaguers in exhibition. That isn't the idea. Army.and Navy
(there's a raft of good ball players out there—a lot of them
‘better than the over age men and 4-Fs who chiefly man the
big leagues today) will take on the world’s champs at various
‘of Radio Tokyo,
bases—and their rooting ‘buddies will for the time being be
back in that ol’ bal! park. What that will do for morale needs
no explaining to any American male!»
Long after the history of thé battles and invasions has
gone into history books, thousans of the men who fought them
will recall their greatest thrill the time their leaders brought
to them championship baseball—that wondrous bit of home.

THE RED MAN EATS.
If U. S. diplomatic service needs a genius, Chief Spotted
Crow, of the South Dakota Sioux, may be the man. Foreseeing rationing, he loaned buffalo to a state park, on a duration “‘interest’’ arrangement. Last week his tribesmen feasted
on.an interest payment—the meat of three buffalo, point free.

MORALE BUILDER
SAYS U.S. NAVY
The Navy Department, ‘through
Captain T. P. O’Brien, USN, Director
of Welfare, today cited Tokyo Rose
for ‘‘meritorious
service contributing greatly to the
morale of United States armed services in the Pacific,’’ and gave her
permission to broadcast soon to the
United States Army of Occupation in
Japan and to the ships of the United
States Fleet at anchor in Yokohama
bay, the history making scene of Admiral Halsey riding the Japanese
emperor’s white horse through the
streets of Tokyo.”’
The ‘citation’? wag recorded by
Captain O’Brien for broadcast over
“the Navy Reporter’ radio program
which is short waved to all personnel beyond the continental limjts.
The text of Captain .O’Brien's
statement follows:
“The men and ‘women of the
Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard
take pleasure in presenting this
citation to Tokyo Rose of Radio Tokyo for service as eet forth in the
following:
“For meritorious achievement
while serving as a radio propaganda
fbroadcaster for the Japs. While the
United States armed forces in. the
(Pacific have been extremely busy
capturing enemy held islands, sinking Jap ships, and killing Japs and
more Japs, Tokyo Rese ever solicitous of their morale, has persistently
entertained them during those long
nights in fox holes and one board
ship, by bringing them excellent state
side music, laughter and news about

fighting for, which are the things
America has given them. And they
