Nitrate Need
n the Omaha world -Heralc

From the Omaha Wofld-aeTald
Nebraska irrigation farmers. their
needs desperate, are demanding more
ammonium nitrate fertilizer for their
fields.
Those fields are mostly in corn. The
Government wants them to raise corn
more and more of 1t as a weapon
against global starvation
But the same Government. the
farmers assert, is taking the entire
fertilizer production of the former
Grand Island Ordnance Plant and has
earmarked it. for shipment overseas.
1t would take only about six days pro-
duction of the plant to satisfy the
seasonal needs of Nebraska farmers.
From other parts of the country have
come like protests. Some crop regions
have protested. among other things,
that badly disproportionate share of
the country's fertilizer supply has been
earmarked for tobacco raisers of the
South We will be kept in smokes,
presumably, even though the dinner
menu is badly curtailed.
The situation, typical bit of latter
day Westinghouse, is ridiculous. The
corn is badly needed. The fertilizer
needed to boost the crop by several
million extra bushels in Nebraska alone
is readily available Agriculture Secre-
tary Anderson, La Guardia's UNRRA
and the Commodity Credit Corp. should
get their heads together and make the
needed supplies available to Nebraska
cornfields without delay.

Auroru BoreuIis

While there was no connection
between last nights awe-inspiring
display of Northern Lights and the
atomic bomb explosion at Bikini, as
some persons suggested in their calls
to newspapers and radio stations, it
would not be stretching the truth
too far to say that the spectacle was
Natures own electronic lombard
ment of the earth. Actually, the
Aurora Borealis remains pretty
much of mystery to scientists,
although they have learned enough
about it to incline them to the belief
that 1t is caused by a storm of
electrical particles hurled at our
atmosphere by a tremendous solar
upheaval, perhaps like that caused
by nuclear f1ssion.
At any rate, there seems to be a
close relation between the Aurora
and sun spots, several of which made
their appearance on the sun several
days ago. And both the Aurora and
sun spots have way of creating
magnetic disturbances which inter-
rupt telegraph communications
Such was the case last night, with
cables to Europe and parts of South
America being particularly affected.
Last nights show probably was the
most brilliant in this section since
the big display of September 19,
1941. On both occasions the skies
to the north were Illuminated with
long, shaky fingers of light, extend
ing to zenith almost overhead,
followed by luminescent curtains of
greenish or purplish hues which
came and went with startling sud-
denness. This much can be said for
Natures Operation Aurora: It is
far more beautiful than manmade
nuclear demonstrations, and not so
dangerous.

A Magma Churto for Health

The extensive scope of the move
ment inaugurated by the signing of
the United Nations Charter has just
been exemplified by the signing of a
pact insuring the existence of a
World Health Organization. No less
than sixty signatures were appended
to the document which one of the
delegates enthusiastically termed "A
Magma Charta for Health" Thus
fruitfully ends the International
Health Conference, assembled in
New York City a month ago as part
of the u N. program for the setting
up of series of collateral organiza-
tions for the promotion of har-
mony and cola boration between the
worlds peoples.
In sharp contrast to the contro-
versies in the politico-diplomatic
field which have been given so much
publicity and awakened such alarm
ist comment, the International
Health Conference has had consist
emily smooth sailing. Whatever
their ideologies, the delegates were
in accord that disease. especially
epidemic disease. is the common
enemy which can and should be
fought with united effort. In the
field of health and sanitation there
was no boggling over regulations for
proper quarantine, inspection and
prevention through the elimination
of bad conditions, predisposing to
the incubation and spread of infec-
tious maladies The need for effec-
tive international regulations was
seen to have been intensified with
the speeding up of communications,
especially by air. that has virtually
abolished the traditional protection
of distance and rendered the globe
hygienically "one world"
The World Health Organization is
the elimination of an evolution
which dates back to the Interna-
tional Office of Public Hygiene set up
in Paris as far back as 1907. The next
step was the Permanent Health Or
ganization of the League of Nations,
which has abundantly proved its
worth during the past quarter CEN
tury. With its trained personnel,
this branch of the League not only
served as a clearing house for In
formation and as co-ordinator of
hygienic efforts but also carried on

Georqio Massacre

1t is inconceivable that the men
guilty of the wanton murder of four
Georgia Negroes should not be ap-
pretended and made to pay the
penalty for a crime which is as
vicious as anything attributed to
Hitler's Gestapo,
The Negroes, two men and two
women, were dragged from a car
driven by a white man, lined up
beside the road and riddled with
bullets. One of the Negro men had
stabbed a white man during an
earlier alteration, and the pre-
sumption is that he was the mob's
intended victim. According to the
news reports, however, a member
of the unmasked mob was recog
nized by one of the women, and
when she called out his name the
women as we'll as the men were
slain.
Presumably this was done to con-
ceal the Identities of the lynchers
But it is impossible to believe that
the Georgia authorities, or, if need
be, the Federal authorities, are in
capable of ferreting out the killers
and bringing them to justice. The
white driver of the car was present
and heard the Negro woman call
out the name of the mob member
she recognized. The driver says
that he was permitted to leave after
the leader of the mob had questioned
him, and he had said that he did not
know any of the killers. But, as
suming the accuracy of the news
reports, he must know the name of
the man who was recognized by the
woman, and with that much to go on
it would seem to be relatively
simple matter for the authorities
to run him down if they want to
do so. Certainly, every decent
citizen, white or colored, will expect
and insist that this be done.

The Atomic Bill

Although unprecedented in many
respects, the atomic energy bill that
has at last been passed by Congress
in accordance with compromise
worked out by Senate and House
conferees-is as sound as 1t Is neces-
sary. The measure adheres fully
to the wholesome American tradi-
tion of civilian control, but at the
same time makes sure that the in
terests of the armed forces are
amply protected Representing our
best military. scientific and political
thought, it is legislation of a su-
perior kind, and the sooner it is
operating, the better equipped the
Nation will be to deal with the ex-
traordinary potentialities of the
atom.
When it originally passed the Sen
ate with unanimous support, the bill
provided for the establishment of
an all-civilian, five-man control
commission, with military interests
safeguarded by special liaison
committee empowered to appeal to
the President, through the Secre-
taries of War and Navy, against any
commission decision to which it
might be opposed. After the meas
ure came before the House, however,
it was heavily amended, the chief
changes being aimed at watering
down the commissions powers over
such things as atomic patents and
at giving the armed forces greater
influence over policy by direct rep
resentation on the commission.
The compromise worked out by
the conferees and now before the
President for his signature retains
the meat and bones of the Senate
bill. Under it the control commission
will remain completely civilian and
its powers in the patent and licens-
ing f1eld-essential powers in view
of the exceptionally dangerous char
acter of atomic energy-will con-
tinue stringent. Concessions, how
ever, have been made to the House
view that the original measure did
not adequately safeguard the in
terests of the armed forces. Thus, in
addition to the military liaison
committee, the conference version
provides for the naming of an Army
or Navy man as director of the
commissions military application
division. 1t provides, too, that the
President may at any time direct
the Army and Navy to assemble
their own A-weapons, and it estab-
fishes the death penalty for security
violations of an extreme kind.
The great virtue of this compro-
mise is that it will give intelligent
direction to the long term domestic
control and development of atomic
energy without in any way running
counter to either civilian or military
interests. Mofe than that, it will
be flexible enough to allow for any
revisions likely to be required in the
event of international agreements
Congress has done the right and
the wise thing in approving it at
this time, for further delay would
have constituted policy Of drift
harmful alike to our own and to the
international effort to harness the
atom for peace.

taken a CHASTITY toll OF life had crews
been aboard the target fleet.
Another test of the atom against
sea power-a deep underwater det-
onation likely to be even more dev-
astating-is scheduled for some time
next year. But even without such a
test, it can be said with certainty
today that drastic Transformation
Is in store for navies. Bikini has
made that much very clear, just as
Hiroshima and Nagasaki have made
clear that old concepts about ground
forces and the defense of cities no
longer are good enough for ma
tion's security. We are in an age, in
short, when there can be no true
safety anywhere-on land or sea
unless the world really works as one
world in maintaining peace.

In the long run we must be brothers,
If we are going to be at all.
At heart we still are suspicious,

The VIII Of God is at the center
OF things and 1t can't be got out.
Right and wrong are not subject to
our vote, any more than Is the law
of gravitation. For two centuries
we have been building a philosophy
which made morality pretty much a.
matter of custom. Under the domi-
nation Of what we regarded as
up-to-date. scientific attitudes, that
became pretty much a part of our
thinking.
One of the blessings which God
may give us out OF the evil of war
is the realization that such thinking
has refuted itself In our world utterly
and dismally. We can't desert it
quickly enough. Right at the heart
of life is Will that didn't arrive
with the theory of evolution in 1850
or Of relatively in 1900 1t doesn't
change with circumstances. 1t isn't
whim. It's Law.
What we call Natural Law is our
understanding of how the Creator
Who rules the world from beginning
to end and from everlasting to ever
lasting, has constituted His universe.
What we call Civil Law is our at

Thou shalt not kill" And moral
and spiritual law is Gods Law of

men of God spake as they were

was incarnate in a Life. Nobody
can sneer Jesus Christ off the record.
There's still an absolute. And it's
Gods.
DR.. Paul Scherer puts it this way:
"It isn't the right that changes. Our
interpretations change. And when
they get out of line with the Will OF
God, no matter how conscientious
we've been about getting out, we've
got to get back"
The Golden Rule works backward.
