selves. And by the same token the cure is
within ourselves.
Every layman takes it for granted that
the next war" will be more terrible than this
one All through history that has been true.
Prophecies of destruction have been made
before. But now there are new dimensions
of horror. / say this as one who has observed
the science of humiliation at close range.
dare predict that ''the next war" will not
merely bring more destruction than this one,
but destruction of new kind, applied on an
unprecedented scale and against every living
thing on earth.
No Country r Safe
lHE advent of the airplane has already
wiped out the dividing line between the fight
ing front and the home front No place in the
world is safe, even now. Only the failure to
make full use of already existing possibilities
still gives some areas false feeling of re-
moteness from the war. All of Europe and
most of Asia are in the war" in the most ele-
mentary sense: every man, woman and child
is potential casualty.
In the wars of the immediate future entire
populations will be directly menaced by in
struments of demolition more effective than
any now IN existence.
In less than four years - between the Bat
tie of Britain and the Battle of Germany -
average bombs grew from ton to six tons.
Ten-ton blockbusters are already being de-
veloped. Land mines of twice that size, geared
to bury themselves in the ground and explode
with the force of minor earthquakes, are be-
ing explored.
Not only the weight but the deadlmess of
explosive loads is growing. A ton, we may be
sure, will do more damage tomorrow than
today There is almost no limit to this growth,
or to the precision with which we will be able
to blast the very heart of great industrial and
population centers.
Rocket power is certain to flourish in air
craft of unprecedented speeds. 1t will huri
projectiles more devastating than those fired
from the biggest guns yet invented.
The rocket torpedo the Germans first re-
leased last summer will expand in size and
effectiveness until aerial torpedoes weighing
many tons and cutting through space at more
than 1900 feet second, will crash through
the sides of the largest and strongest battle
ships
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1944-05-07

The 75-mm. guns recently installed in our
Mitchell bombers and the 1O5-mm. cannon
projected for other airplanes are crude fore
runners of winged artillery, flying through
the skies with the speed of sound. The terrify
ing reality is that all the familiar weapons on
land and sea - giant guns, tanks, battle
ships - are sprouting wings. Nothing on the
surface of the earth will be able to survive the
punishment dealt from the skies.
The destructive power of electronics, the
lethal resources of modern chemistry, have
scarcely been tapped. Within decade or less
they will be ready to visit horror on man IN
new and almost unimagined forms. The split
ting of the atom, already achieved In the
laboratory, will release colossal energy to
further enhance wholesale annihilation.
War will become gigantic clash of mighty
chronological monsters, striking from the
heart of one nation directly at the heart of
another perhaps halfway around the world,
with fury and destructiveness that will
make all past conflicts - including World
War II - seem trivial by contrast. The aim
will be total annihilation
Nor can we console ourselves with the
idea that only advanced" and |'civi-
lized'' nations will be able to use the in
calculable possibilities of annihila ton
The paradox of modern technology is this:
though its creation calls for brains of high
order, its operation does not. The more COM
pick piece of machinery, the more simple its
use Push buttons and levers tend to replace
skill and experience A child can run modern
automatic elevator, where the crude elevator
of the past called for trained operator.
Automatic processes are substituted for
human intelligence.
The Lesso. a Japan
HE mechanics of mass demolition, brought
into being by the most highly developed
countries, can readily be taken over by back
ward peoples, with hundreds of millions of
robots at their disposal and no civilized re-
straints to inhibit their use of the most ter
rible engines of destruction. Let us not forget
that though Japan has contributed nothing
to the development of technical equipment of
modern warmaking, it has used that equip
ment with immense effect
War hereafter will hold the threat of the
end of civilization We need to realize this
in all its brutal nakedness. Only then will
mankind become aware that it must put its

moral forces in balance with its chronological
forces.
In spreading the products of our techno-
logical civilization to the whole world, we
neglect our own safety if We fail to spread
with it sense of moral responsibility. But
this, alas, we cannot do unless our own moral
sights are raised; unless they are brought into
alignment with mechanical progress.
At the same time, those who preach moral
responsibility must do 50 with full knowledge
of the chronological facts of life. Our moral
leaders must not delude themselves and their
followers with fairy tales about defensive
weapons or physical isolation"
No ocean barriers no defensive weapons
are effective safeguards against the destruc-
tive forces being used at this very minute.
They will be utterly worthless against the
humiliation that will be loosed tomorrow.
Does it seem strange to you for scientist
to be laying such emphasis upon moral values?
/ assure you it is not strange, for no one
knows better than scientist the dreadful cost
of another war.
What Can You Do?
THEREFORE l say that we simply cannot
afford to be lazy or cynical about peace plans
if we want to survive - if we want our chill
dren to survive.
This is no doctrine of pacihsm. If there is to
be an arms race, America must - and will -
lead that race. Until humankind makes up
its mind on this crucial issue, those of us who
are technicians of war have no alternative
but to perfect the weapons and strategies of
war While war is with us, we are determined
to maintain American supremacy. But our
first thought now should be to build world
where armament races are no longer neces-
sary.
If world at peace seems visionary or I'M
practical" remember the very practical story
of our nation where Is sovereign - and
often hostile - colonies patiently hammered
out their destiny to become strong and
peaceful union.
Think, too how that concept of peaceful
living has been expanded to our entire CONT
nent, and now to the entire Western Henri
sphere.
The time has come when the entire world
must learn to do this If we make the right
choice, science can bring us unprecedented
abundance If not, we are inviting our own
destruction. The End

The present conflict gives
an ominous warning: Plan
a peaceful world, or else .
r AN scientist and engineer; my profes-
i sional life has been devoted to the science
of aeronautics. And large part of that is
concerned with military aviation, which pri-
marty is the science of destruction. But when
/ see planes that originated IN my brain ham,
mering at the enemy, have no sense of guilt.
In world that harbors war want America
to be the best prepared and the best equipped.
As long as brute force remains the final arbi-
ter among nations, our country should take
and hold the lead in the art of war.
But there are things which urgently need
saying - and which only engineers of de-
struction" can say with the necessary candor
and emphasis 1t viii not make pretty read
ing for passive, complacent optimists. But
there are chronological truths that we
must face - and understand - If we are
to be masters of our human destiny, not
helpless victims Of an avalanche Of sci
enti6c progress.
Neurological advances have been larger
and more rapid than ever before IN the long
career of man ON this earth. The present glo-
bal war has given science terrific new impetus.
The marvels of aviation, electronics and rock
etry already revealed to the public, for in
stance are mere indications of marvels in
cubating in research Laboratories.
Needed: Neral Sense
HE nations of the world hold in their hands
scientific force capable of blowing all civiliza-
ton to bits But our moral sense has not kept
pace with this almost incalculable growth of
physical prowess We do not have IN our
minds and hearts the good sense and the moral
restraint to serve as oounteTforces.
The gulf between our available technical
power and our moral understanding has wild
ened disastrously 1t is a terrible abyss that
may swallow everything that the human race
has priced.
Humanity today is like a child playing with
matches. It has the ability to ignite them but
lacks the sense of danger and the self-control
to desist. Therefore it is child menaced by
slf-extermination. Modern technology IS

mltting the closing of one woman's
ward at Glenn Dale and paving the
way for eventually closing of addi-
tional wards if sufficient personnel

/ DR.. Rutland recommended that
money now availa bic for untitled DO
sitionS of part time physicians in
the budget for the Bureau of.Tuber-
culoSiS should be utilized to acquire
visiting physicians for Upshur Street
and Galllnger on a part-time basis.
He said the doctors should be re-
cruited from the District Medical
Society.
Acting Budget Officer William G.
Wllding, however, suggested that
funds now appropriated for GAL
linger Hospital should be used for
the part-time positions, saying he
could not understand why unused
money from the tuberculosis bureau
should be utilized.
Use of Freedmen's Urged.
AS another means Of relieving
pressure on Glenn Dale, where it
has been necessary to limit admiS-
SlonS to emergency cases because Of
an acute personnel shortage, Dr.
Rutland suggested that two un-
opened wards at Freedmen's Hos
pital be opened at the earliest pos
Sible date. The question of using
FreedmenS depends upon the Fed
eral Security Agency, which controls
the hospital.
1t was further recommended that
no patients with tuberculosis be al
lowed to leave the hospital unless
he has signed statement of
physician that he is not public
health menace If he leaves against
advice, court action will be taken.
AS final recommendation. patients
at Upshur Street Hospital needing
X-rays would use the facilities of
the tuberculosis Bureau rather than
go to Gallinger.
DR.. Rutland said the recommen-
dations were made because of the
failure to recruit volunteers for
Glenn Dale. He pointed out that
only 27 candidates became available
and that one-half were rejected be-
cause tests showed they would be
vulnerable to tuberculosis infection.

London 10 Modernize
Area Near 81. PauI's
BY the Associated Press.


LONDON, July 27.-Old London
the bomb battered square mile
around st. Paufs-will be rebuilt
after the war as the business center
of the city with wider streets and
taller buildings, under plans made
public by London officials yesterday
The program would unwrap ST.
Paul's from its seedy surroundings
but the planners emphasized they
did not want to see the famous
cathedral set in some glamorous
arbor foreign to the atmosphere of
Old London.
The "City"--as this area is known
is the financial center of the en-
tire British Empire, with a popula-
ton OF 100000 by day and 10000 by
night-one of the smallest divisions
Iof Metropolitan London.
The rebuilding program, to be
carried out in 20 or 25 years, calls
for construction of a wide ring road
north of the city to relieve traffic
congestion and extension of the
present embankment between Black
Friars and London Bridge.
The planners suggested that the
height of the buildings, which gen.
orally have been under IS feet, be
increased to a maximlm of 100 feet
A 5000 900 airport, first proposed
in 1899 was approved
