Atomic Fuy!-What Science Hopes and Fears:
World Must Ban
Atom Bombs Use

EDITORS NOTE-The chance of discovering
effective defense against the atomic bomb is regarded

Should we Immediately adapt
the Nazi ahbi Of self-protection
and make surprise attacks on
such nations 10 subject them 10
our rules? II we are going TO act
on suspicion. what are we wait

Obviously, such an attack Is
entirely against our principles.
We would wait 10 be attacked.
This means a continuous and

COULD sTREw CITIES

If we are to rely on our own
resources for our protection, the
only remaining way TO increase
our chances of surviving sudden
blow is to disperse our cities. BY
spreading out our population and
industry we could reduce the pos
sibility of our being destroyed in
the initial surprise attack.
We could then have the -oppor-
tunity to engage in a battle Of
mutual atomic warfare with our
enemies. This proposal does not
sound very attractive, but it has
been seriously suggested. We will
consider in the next article just
what it implies.
We have seen how hopeless II
is TO try to prevent other nations
from making atomic bombs and
how impossible it is to defend
ourselves adequately against a
sudden attack.

vigilant alert. We would have to
be prepared to intercept at any
instant a swarm of long range
planes winging through the
stratosphere, or a cloud Of w
type rockets dropping like bolts
from the blue.
Our navy would have to search
the seas continuously, our patrol
planes would have TO fly day and
night, the anti-aircraft guns en-
circling every city would be
manned "a hours a day. Just to
maintain this vigil means a
major war effort.
COULDN'T TOLERATE THIS
Not only must we guard against
an attack from the sky, but we
could allow no saboteurs the
chance of smuggling atomic bombs
into our cities. We would have
to guArd every foot of our borders,
and scrutinize every single thing
that went in or out Of these
cities.
The FBI would expand a hun
dred or a thousand fold to watch
every individual in the country.
This nation simply could not
tolerate existing in such a state
of watchful waiting; we couldn't
go about our every day lives. And
even if we tried, it would prob
ably be futile.
Who can guard against human
mistakes? ? IT was the human ele-
ment, not the lack of defenses,
that made Pearl Harbor possible.
SMALL COMFORT
Those of US who survived a sur
prise atomic bomb attack would
find small comfort in a report
that by brilliant and courageous
efforts our military forces had
intercepted 900 atomic bombs,
permitting only 100 to destroy our
principal cities and military install
lations.
Yet even a defense as efficient
as this is hard. TO imagine. We
have yet 10 shoot down a single
W. rocket in flight.
We must conclude that because
the defense must be constantly on
the alert and because it must be
100 per cent complete, it is just
not humanity achievable.

ton system of the country is
threatened as this is written by
still another strike.
With this situation existing,
the House of Representative
which unquestionablv has been
the aggressor in trying to con-
troll strikes-got busy last week.
The House Rules Committee,
which is the policy committee
of the House, after chatting under
administration opposition to any
legislation for the past several
weeks, pulled out of its files two
bills aimed at remedying the sit
uation and reported them to the
floor of the House. They are the
Cd so-called Hobbs Anti-Rack-
eteering Bill-which has as its
objective the stoppage of what is
termed BY the bill as robbery
and extortion in interstate COM
merce"-and (2) the May Bill
which would repeal certain pro-
visions of the Smith, onally Act
and the War Labor Disputes Act,
and would also amend the Fed
eral Corrupt Practices Act SO as
to prevent labor unions as well
as corporations from making po-
litical contributions to candidates
for the office of president and to
members of congress. This meas
ure would also make labor unions
liable for damages in case of
breach of contract where they had
bargained and contracted with
management for a special time.
Certainly, these bills will be
opposed by the administration.
It is a fair guess that they will
pass the House by a substantial
majority. In fact, the Hobbs Bill
has already passed the House at
two previous sessions by a vote
of approximately 2 to |. Whether
the administration will be able to
stop them in the Senate, as in
the past, is another question.
