SUBSCRIPTION RA'LES Gne year (in Advance) ......-.------2:.---.-. $3.00 One MORth 0.55.50 s0s55 ee ks 30 cents i <n Sane oars corer Ses i I wonder and . worry too, About atomic powers, _ And will they quite transform, . ask, This universe of ours, : Shall we look up some stilly night, And find to our dismay, That little men with atom bombs Have blown the moon away? . I wonder at the courage and fortitude with which aver‘age men and women face real and potential disasters and remain calm in the presence of catstrophes which well might strike terror to the stoutest heart. Of coursé there are times when poise is lost; we become hysterical perhaps and give way to the terrors inspired by imagination, but in the main, men and women are able to rationalize their problems and meet emergencies with the calm of real strength patience and endurance. The atomic bomb which is by far the most murderous weapon the world: has ever known has been accepted not so much with alarm as with determined thought directed toward the goal of solving the problems so suddenly thrust upon us. Many solutions have been offered, perhaps the wisest one was recently voiced by an eastern analyst who said. “the way to -controll the atomic bomb is to stop producing it.’ . wish he -had gone a step farther and suggested the feasibility of destroying those still.in existence and penalize in the futlre any man or woman who invents a weapon with which to slaughter his fellow men. Poisonous gas has been outlawed as an instrument of war why can’t we deal with the atomic bomb in the same reasonable fashion. Once upon a time a man of affairs made a practice of stopping his eight day office clock each Saturday afternoon and starting it every Monday morning. When asked what his object was in so doing he replied “‘stopping my clock over the week end saves the year and tear of the wheels.” I wonder if industrialists and their employees have caught that idea. Perhaps they think that by stopping the wheels of industry for a month three months or a year they are saving something, but . can’t see what. Certainly not the salaries of the workers, surely not the profits of the manufacturers. That is, unless the government steps in and makes all ‘Josses good. . I do wonder sometimes why we are all so eager to earn more money, production being what it is we can’t buy anything with the money we already have. . think I hear the echo of Wendell Wilkie’s stirring cry, ‘‘Produce!”’ Uncle Silas says: “I’ve been around and around searching for some garments I'd like to buy and everywhere the mer_ chants are singing, the same song ‘yes we have no pajamas, we have no pajamas today.”,—A.Merriam Conner. WHAT THE COLUMNIST SAY GOVERNMENT AND FREE PRESS—W*m: Philip Simms tell the American story obroad. But. the countries where this information is most needed are those completely closed to it. _ And in the areas where the press is free to publish it, there is little or no need for the effort. A free press, free access to the news, freedom from consorship and reasonable transmission rates are pretty nearly everything that is needed to put our story ocrass. A good experienced press officer in each of our embassies and legations abroad might prove helpful. PLAIN SPEAKING—Francis E. McMahon . _ The UNO may not be much of a prop for the world’s . ‘hopes today. But. thnks to a deep-rooted isolationism both here and abroad, it is all we have. The isolationist may carp, on the ground will make the best of the situation until mankind is willing to go all the way. : “ON WORLD AFFAIRS—Edgar Ansel Mowrer “Trust in UNO but make your own private arrangements. y p This is the inevitable result of the type of world organization which, even in the eyes of its strongest champions, ¢annot guarantee peace. The new world organization does more—it virtually deprives of severeignty all but the five biggest nations. Perhaps all but the three biggest, since France is still prostrate and China has been divided. Of these three nations, the Soviet Union has taken the lead in “‘organiging its security” territorially. The United States has not been imactive. In Germany and above all in China and Japan, American administration has shown a zeal and precision which contrast with its indecision in other areas. _, ECONOMIC PHILOSOPHY—Dorothy Thompson Either workers must have some of the privileges, opportunities and responsibilities of owners or increasing numbers _.of them will vote to exchange their present bosses for the state. Since . think that by so doing they will but permanently ‘fonfirm their propertyless status, I am against it. But if the capitalist system remains a proletarian system at won't be able to compete with the real or fancied greater “security and equality of state capitalism. It must offer both more security and greater opportunity. WHITEHOUSE.

No greater ~atastrophe could befall them than to get into an ideolological They also seek areas of agreeently the only means of modifying. the position of either country is persuasion—undeviatthat the Soviets had a vital interest in determining that no government hostile to them be ia. We also granted that they vanquished these enemies and were in possession—just as we had conquered and were in possession of Japan. RESISTANCE TO CHANGE—Thomas L. Stokes The chief fact in the year ahead of us as far as our affairs here at home are concerned is a resistance to change. It is stiffening in the aftermath of war. How deep it is, or how widespsead is hard to tell. But already it has catised conflict on several fronts. This is bound to Lyons THE LYONS DEN—Leonard The scientists at Princeton University who had worked on the development of the atomic bomb started working on a defense against the bomb last month. But they've practically abandoned this project, resined to the cgonclusion that there is no defense against it—other than that first suggested by Dr. Robert Oppenheimer: ‘“The only defense is peace.”’ -MAN’S GREATEST TASK—Eleanor Roosevelt The building of a United Nations organization is the way ing else except security for all the peoples of the world will bring freedom from fear or deSecurity requires both control of the use:of force and the are secure unless they have the things needed, not only to preserve existence, but to make life worth living.
