THE BIRTH AND DEATH OF
THE SUN, by George Gamow.
Herein, the anatomy of matter
as modern physics has explored
it is traced from Democritus
(375 B.C.) to 1910. Gamow was
born in Odessa in 1904 and has
worked with the worlds greatest
scientists. For the past two years
he has been working on the ap-
plication of nuclear physics to
problems of stellar evolution. He
writes in simple, but scientifical-
ly accurate terms for the layman.
"AN ENEMY OF THE PEG
PIE: Antisemitism," by James
Parkes, an Englishman, reveals
that anti-Semitism is not only
an enemy of the Jews, but of the
people, as the title implies. He
proves there can be no hope for
better society until hatred of
minority groups, particularly the
Jews, is removed from civiliza-
ton. In 1885 the Nazis tried to
murder Mr.. Parkes, in Geneva,
but failed.

WoIIoce Soys BombMokino Should Stop

New York, Dec. 1o (UP) - Henry A. Wallace, former Secretary of Commerce. said today the United States should immediately stop making atom bombs and turn over those completed to an international tribunal to be held until the United Nations disarmament program be- comes a reality.
 Wallace, writing in the current is- sue of the New Republic. asserted that other nations were not asking the United States to reveal the sec- ret of atomic energy until there is complete assurance of security.
 The Russians have met us half way" he wrote. Why don't we step out and meet them more than half way?"
 Wallace said there can be no real peace so long as the United States makes atom bombs, Russia con- tinues 5,000O00 men under arms, and Great Britain maintains troops in all parts of the world.
 Wallace called for an immediate public statement by the United States as to how many atomic bombs are on hand and how many may be manufactured at the present rate of production before the end of 1947. The stockpile of the bomb, he said, inevitably made it appear that the United States was the greatest imperialist nation in history"
 Wallace said that the LIN resolu- tion calling for an inventory of armaments was possibly one of the most important acts in all history. He added, however. that the rate of disarmament was the greatest meas urement of the success of the Uni- ted Nations.
