Actually there is no crucial need
for a Board of Adjustment. In
The laws present stage, the coun-
ell can adjudicate any appeals that
lay be filed from the zone law
ulings of City Building Inspector
Gilbert F. Morton.
But, to a considerable extent, the
course of the future laws depends
on the men who sit on the board
of adjustment. One of the designees
who declined to serve admitted
that fact three days ago, and the
responsibility involved was GER
tainly a factor in his declination.
Chances are that the council will
take no further public action on
completing the coming board panel
until it has the a~cceptances OF
its three new choices in its files.

legal framework of the plan-the

posal and the magnitude of our
power. The calculation of the
Soviets, which we must take ve-y
seriously, crosses up this theory Of
what is to happen.
For Stain, like Mr.. Baruch, feels
that he can wait. BY waiting
Russia will have time to learn to
manufacture her WI atomic
weapons. There is only one way
that MI. Baruch might deny the
Russians the time to equip them
selves with atomic weapons. That
is if the United States attacked
them with atomic bombs before
they a make their own. Stain
indicated plainly that he had
taken this possibility into account,
and had concluded that the Soviet
Union could not be defeated in a
preventive war.
Russia is not Japan nor is it
England, crowded islands pecu-
liarly vulnerable to atomic bonn
bardment. Russia has abundantly
the only known means of defense
against the atomic bomb, namely
space in which to dispense its
people.
Russia, moreover, has a formi-
dable military answer to the atomic
bomb. She has inexhaustible re-
serves of infantry already de-
ployed into the center of Europe,
and capable of overrunning the
larger part of the Continent.
Against the Red Army in Europe,
it would be impossible to use the
atomic bomb without exterminat-
ing hundreds, perhaps thousands,
of Europeans for every Red soldier
killed. Europe is, therefore, a
hostage against a preventive war.
If preventive war is ruled out,
then M. Baruch cannot compel
the, Soviets to accept our plan as
presented, and he cannot deny
them the time to develop their
own atomic weapons. And when
they have developed them, Mr..
Baruch will no longer be able to
count upon the unanimous support
of the non-Soviet nations. Britain,
France, Belgium, the Netherlands,
the Scandinavian countries, will,
then, no longer be protected by
our monopoly of atomic weapons:
they will have become in the high
est degree vulnerable to the Rus
sian atomic weapons. They will be
bound to prefer some kind of
agreement to no agreement.
We cannot, therefore, afford to
congratulate ourselves that we
have found the wer to the
problem of the atomic bomb. We
have explored, most brilliantly,
the technical part of the problem
in the Acheson-Lilienthal inquiry.
But there remains the problem Of
what to do, if u plan IS not ac-
ceptable, about the a c of arma-
ments which is now under way.
Stain in his interview has an
nounced that Russia is in the race,
and Mr.. Baruch has now told US
that we are in the race. That is
the net of it, and we must not
hide the situation, or imagine
that the Baruch proposals are a
policy which meets this situation.
For the situation that has to be
met is the race of ornaments
which, when n puts side by side
what Stain said and what Mr..
Baruch says, is now being run,
with no statesmen in any country
making any move, offering any
suggestion, to stop the race, to in
