It will be said that this is all
very nice but how do we know that
the Soviet Union, which is so Sc
cretive, would sign such a scienti-
fic treaty, or interpret it in the
same spirit as we do. The answ-
er, believe, is that the wider we
open this knowledge to the scien-
fist of the world, the more nations
we bring into the research, the
more difficult it will become for
any nation to isloate its own scien-
lists and to conceal their work.
Even if not all the nations adj
hered to such treaty, the nations
which do adhere ought still to
make all their knowledge common
property. For they can best guard
mankind against the use of atomic
energy as destructive surprise by
multiplying the watchers and SEN
tinels who already know so much
that it is hard to surprise them.
All the scientists Of thirty or forty
nations can afford much greater
protection than a few hundred
scientists in three nations. There
will be more Of them and they will
be working in more parts Of the
world.
If, on the contrary we ourselves
try to keep the secret, we shall not
only instigate others to act in Sc
cret, but we shall also make it
much easier for them to act in
secret. For instead of alerting the
scientific world so that it can alert
governments and people, we should
be closing the eyes and ears of the
very men who can most quickly de-
tect any hidden mischief that is
being concocted in the dark.
To those who contend that we
should guard this secret, we must,
l believe. reply that, on the con-
trary. the safest course is to guard
against its. being a secret any,,
where.

The Atomic Secret
By WALTER LIPPMANN

, application of it. The best interna'
tional inspectors, the best interna
tional detectives-in fact the only
competent inspectors and detec
tives-Will be the scientists who
work in this field.
The more of them there are in
all countries, and the more they
know, the more difficult it will be
for any government to conceal the
development of atomic weapons.
For when a man knows almost
everything that is known about a
subject; small hint, slight clue,
will either give him the rest of it,
or make him smell that something
is being hidden which needs to be
ferreted out.
The object of our policy cannot
be to keep the secret. That cannot
be done. Our object must be to
prevent the secret use of the
knowledge as a military surprise.
We can hope to do this only by
measures which make the knowl-
edge so much the common prop
erty of the scientific world that
scientists would quickly be alerted
if any of their colleagues anywhere
went underground to develop a
weapon of surprise.
No form on international control
can work if it is not based on the
premise that the scientists them
selves must be the detectives and
inspectors of the control. If we
start with that premise, then it
follows that the international
agreements should aid at the most
prompt and detailed exchanges of
scientific knowledge in the whole
field of atomic energy. It ought
t. be quite feasible for the scien-.
lists who now have the secret to
say what reports, correspondence,
exchange of visits among labora-
tories, would make most certain
that no development can long be
carried on secretly.
The Wilmington morning star., 1945-10-04

Among those who know the Sc
cret of the atomic bomb, there roes
not seem to be any one who thinks
it can remain a secret very long.
Mr.. Churchill, for example, must
have been speaking for the Bri-
fish scientists who know the secret
when he said that it could be kept
not longer than four or five years.
A very large number of the Ameri-
car scientists who worked on the
bomb are on record as believing
that I'VE can claim no enduring
monopoly in the possession Of the
atomic bomb
They ought to know, and if the
secret cannot be kept, it is unnec-
essary to argue whether it ought
to be kept. Moreover, it would be
in the highest degree dangerous to
suppose we were keeping the &C.
cret if in fact we were not. For
that could only give us as it has
already given many, false sense
of security and a fasle sense of
our own power.
This secret is now known to
certain number of scientific men.
in Great Britain, Canada, and the
United States. No one could, l
imagine, say exactly how many
they are, whether there are fifty
men or five hundred who posses
the knowledge which other scien-
fists and inventors do not as yet
have. Let us suppose that the Bri-
fish. the Canadian, and the United
States governments were to bind
each of these scientists to keep
the secret. How could this be done?
One way would be to lock the
whole lot of them up in a con-
centration camp. Another might be
to forbid them to do any research
ir any way connected with the
atom. For if these men go back as
free men to their laboratories, they
are bound to use what they know
in their researches. That in itself
will saan provide their scientific
colleagues throughout the world
with all the clues they need to re-
discover the secret.
It is impossible to imagine how
scientific research in nuclear phys
les could be carried on in three
countries without disclosing the Sc
ret. 1t is fantastic to suppose that
a selected bit of knowledge in a
vast field of knowledge could in
time of peace be kept hidden with
il the national boundaries of three
democratic countries. Even in war
time and in spite of the secret po-
lice of totalitarian Germany, we
managed to get wind of the secret
of Germany's most secret
weapons.
How, then, can we best protect
mankind against the terrible pos
siblities of this new scientific
knowledge? In the last analysis
only by making the knowledge so
universal that it would be impos-
sible for any government to per-
feet in secret some new devilish
