Perspective
Cincinnati Enquirer

There is a disposition, not diminishing with the
weeks, but perhaps growing, to regard the atomic
bomb as milestone at which history stopped and at
which the continuity of history was broken. Nothing,
the interpreters of atomic power are disposed to
argue will be the same again.
To take this a-embracing view is to ignore a
good many lessons of history-the history which did
not stop when atomic energy was loosed on Hlro-
shima. The favorte theme of the new prophets is
to argue that atomic bombs have made all armies
and fleets and all other weapons of war incon-
sequential. But the could just as well have
been said gunpowder at the moment OF its first use
Actually, gunpowder quite as revolutionary
a development in warfare the atomic bomb. Yet
although profoundly changed tactics it had no per-
ceptible influence the strategy of warfare or on

the same may be said Of the of aircraft in war

Obviously, the perfection OF military explosive

1t does alter the nature of many of our gravest
problems. But our outlook ought to be governed by
sanity rather than hystera; and this becomes easier

cries has earned the warmest commentator of the
Puget Sound salmon fishing and canning industry for
applying common to this seasons operations.
las a practical fisherman and fish buyer OF %
years experience Moore well knows that salmon do
not read calendars and that they have customarily
entered Puget Sound waters in the past in utter dis
regard Of seasonal dates for commercial fishing fixed
by the department he heads.
Hence Moore threw overheard the fixed dates
policy of his predecessors and adjusted the permissible
fishing period to the appearance and prevalence of the
salmon in local waters
This wise and practical approach has contributed
to one of the heaviest catches pink salmon in many
years Canneries generally already have doubled their
preseason estimate of volume
When they were ioaded to capacity with fish
Moore ordered fishing operations suspended until the
canneries could catch up thus keeping the supply
factor in balance with canning speed.
This has meant maximum employment in the
industry profitable operations unexpected addition
sorey needed food supplies and top of all this
a healthy escapement of salmon to the spawning
grounds
by way of contrast the Federal Fish and Wild
life Service has rigdly adhered to its bewhiskered
fixed dates policy in Alaska waters entirely oblivous
it would SEEM to the fact that salmon do not adjust
their movements to made regulations and in fact,
often arrive weeks earlier later than such regua-
tons call for
Southeast Alaska fishermen and report
a short pack because the fish didn't know they
supposed to arrive during the dates fixed by the
service.
But even if the salmon do not read the regula-
lions the Gamers must and thus with the expiration
of the legal they suspended operations. Fish
ing and canning returned to the States with
meager earnings. The entire industry, including the
unhappy.
And then the salmon arrived in volume-but too
late to do anybody good including themselves 1t
is an established biological fact that too heavy
escapement is a menace to maximum propagation.
Isn't it high time for the Federal agency to revise
its regulations at least include in them sufficient
elasticity to meet the facts of lifesalmon life? 1t

senate doesn't give away the money
they have saved.
BY a series of three amendments
to the Ship Sale Bill, the two
congressman convinced their con-
fused colleagues most of whom
were completely unaware of what
the bill contained-to write in safe
guards which will prevent oil COM

from making additional millions

fleet
From $100,000,000 to $150,000,00

nally called for a price of rs per

would have meant the sale of

SENATE ELDER STATESMEN

Although many comparative
youngsters are taking Senate seats
these days, there are still a dozen
senators well over 10 years of age.
Some of these oldsters, like aristo-
cratic Theodore Green of Rhode
Island, sincere Jim Murray of
Montana and sanctimonious Josiah
Bailey of North Carolina, are as
vigorous and active as any of the
youngsters. Some of the others,
however, are not.
Much-loved Carter Glass of Vir-
ginia has not been seen in the
Senate in over two years. Another
octagenarian. popular Arthur Cap
per of Kansas, has the CLEAN of
youth in his eye and is regularly
at his office. But he misses great
many committee meetings.
That is why Senator Bob Taft,
Ohio Republican, was so trium-
plant as he escorted Capper to the
meeting of the Senate Banking and
Currency Committee at which the
final vote was taken on the Full
Employment Bill Taft's attempt to
defeat the bill in committee finally
lost out. but in Capper he had one
more vote for his cause.
Chairman Bob Wagner of New
York. himself a youngster of only
GO years, was stumped as Taft
paraded by him with Capper.

Americas Indebtedness due to war is big enough,
but it would have been great deal larger if it wasn't
for the high income tax which Americans shouldered
on pay-as-you-go basis Alaskans will be interested
to know that on per capita basis Alaskan ranks
fourteenth in the list for all States and Territories
in income tax payments for last year Alaskans on the
average paid 1923 each for the year, according to
figures printed in a recent Congressional Record.
So-even if some Congressman, such Rep. Jed
johnson of Oklahoma, are in favor of knocking out
Federal aid to Alaska because they claim Alaskans
aren't doing enough for themselves AlaSkans haven't
been letting the Federal government down.
Oklahoma, from whence halls the critical Con-
gresham, is far below Alaska in per capita income
tax payments-number "a the list Alaska ranks
ahead Of such States as Missouri Rhode Island, Ore
gon, the Dakotas Mississippi and others.
In all the Federal governments income tax took
about 20 million dollars out of Alaska last year.

johnson Bill for control of atomic
energy, but without success.
American science will suffer a
serious blow, they claim, and will
lose future world leadership, if it
is placed under Army regulation.
Furthermore, scientists will be I'M
willing to extend themselves in
order to spur an arms race which
can only end in worldwide dis
aster, the young atom scientists
argue. The pending bill, they are
convinced, can only end in an
arms race
One of the leading scientists on

recalled to Gen. Groves that Ger

the development of atomic energy
until 10 years ago. AT that time
the Nazis moved in on science,
with the result that German re-

able TO forge ahead. The present
bill, the scientists claim, calls for
even greater control than that i'm
