AToMIc-BoMB FEVER

The people of the United States are
atomic bomb-conscious and even the sales
letters that one now receives from COM
mercial enterprises take advantage of the
atomic age" to persuade the prospect
that prompt purchase will do something
about the new era
We are not advised as to the number
of individuals who assisted in the develop
ment of the widely-advertised atomic
bomb, but the slist grows daily, as we scan
the announcements of individuals in the
public press, and, if it keeps up much
longer, there will be few adults in the
nation without some claim to having taken
part IN the development of the atomic
bomb
Every once in while, some research
worker, who was closely connected with
the atomic bomb project, takes occasion
to deliver his views as to the world stua-
tion Many of them predict another war
unless the bomb can be placed under the
control of an international organization
The unthinking are Immediately led to the
conclusion that if the United States gives
away its atomic bomb secrets. the danger
of warfare will pass and the world will
be guaranteed a long era of peace.
This represents what we consider
dangerous thinking. The United States will
not go to war simply because it possesses
the atomic bomb. In fact, few wars are
fought solely because a nation possesses
a weapon. Obviously, weapons, equipment
and paraphernalia for war are developed
by all nations but sometimes when war
Like nation or people believes that it has
secured superior military power, the in
cidence of warfare is enhanced.
We do not believe that many edu-
Gated people in other nations believe that
the United States is a warlike nation Con-
sequently, we doubt if they are afraid of
the atomic bomb secret which we possess.
This much was plainly asserted by Wins
ton Churchill in his recent speech at Full
ton, Missouri
The thinking people of the world,
however, do not have the same faith in the
peaceful intentions of all other nations.
Certainly they would not like to see the
atomic bomb in the hands of the Nazi
group in Germany. Similarly. they are
somewhat afraid of what the Russian Gov
eminent might do if it possessed the
atomic bomb :
b .ses. We do not mean to put the Russians
I ia thefsame class with the Nazis. There
is no doubt of the devilish intentions of the
Nazi regime, but insofar. as. the Russian
Government is concerned, the apprehen-
sion arises, not from a knowledge of
known belligerent intentions. The fear
arises from lack of knowledge of Rus
sian intentions which, upon closer &C
quaintance, may prove to be as peaceful
as those of the Government of the United
States.

tana, but many of the elements OF
PAC are represented here and they
are backing Erickson Nationally, PAC
is opposing Wheeler.
Both Are Speaking Almost Daily
In All Parts of State
Both Wheeler and Erickson have
been devoting the final weeks of the
campaign to almost daily speeches in
every part of the big state Wheeler
has snubbed a series of district meet
ings for all primary candidates, ar
ranged by the largely anti-Wheeler
democratic state committee. Erickson
also an experienced campaigner, is at
tending all of these.
In the opinion of some Montanans,
this is the fight of Wheeler's long poll
tical life. Wheeler laughs at this. He
says the toughest time he ever had
was in November, 1928. 1t is signifi-
cant. however that Wheeler came back
from Washington much earlier than
usual and undertook what must be
gruelling round for a man of his age,
81. To gain his fourth term, six years
ago, he returned to Montana only long
enough to vote in the primary and
general election.
This year some of his friends and
advisers made it plain that they were
concerned over the onslaught made by
Erickson. They are hopeful now that
Wheelers undoubted political charm
will save the day.
The Missouri Valley Authority, con-
corning which there are lively differ
ences of opinion in this robust state
of the Missouri's headwaters, started
out to be a big issue, but has been
soft-pedaled by both sides.
> Wheeler Declares the MVA
Dead, Can't Pass Congress
Wheeler asserts the MVA idea is
dead and cannot pass congress. Never
theless, in his formal campaign open
ing, he alluded by implication to MVA.
He expressed his opposition to the use
and flood control for the benefit of st.

Senator Johnson of Colorado is

chairman of the committee, he
called a meeting. Only one Sen
ator attended, Republican Styles
Bridges of New Hampshire. Bridges
and Johnson, without discussing the
matter with the rest of the commit
tee or calling in any witnesses, de-
cided to send an Investigator into
Montana to investigate Wheeler's
report that the PAC was propagan-
dizing Montana; that "pinks" from
New York were trying to defeat
him.
