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.

_.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

“security and equality of state capitalism. It must offer both
more security and greater opportunity.

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.

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.”’
