Archaic Preparedness

To the Editor of The Star:
Frankly, the conclusion expressed in the
editorial Our Atomic Vulnerability" in this
weeks Sunday Star is shocking. There is
only one thing that we can do keep ahead
OF the atomic arms race" The report OF DR..
Lapp's study for our own War Department,
which you are discussing, makes it perfectly
clear that we have entered an era in which
mere national preparedness is archaic. Now
we must have international or world pre-
parednesS.
Our forbears had the vision, the intelligence
and the CUTS in few packed and dangerous
years to transform the Colonial Continental
Congress into a Federal Union of States. We
believe we have right now in this country all
1t is going to take to transform the United
Nations organization into federation OF ma
tions with powers sufficient to prevent warfare
of annihilation from any quarter. We need
not give up any defensive measures until such
time as the supranational government relieves
us of the responsibility and cost of enforcing
world peace. But we do need to move very
quickly and decisively in our leadership. In
the u N. If we are not to dissipate our resources
and energies in this atomic ornaments race to
which you see no alternative.
We will have the backing of practically the
whole world except Russia and her satellites in
such a world government. Certainly from the
start all English-speaking countries and the
other American republics. Scandinavia, the
Netherlands, France, Italy, Spain, China and
all South Asia will follow. Atomic and other
weapons and military forces and bases for en-
forcing peace will have a worldwide strategic
dispersal, instead Of being concentrated here in
our country, which in these days of controlled
rockets and aircraft is as vulnerable as was
England in World War II. New York City and
Washington then will no longer be- the first
objectves for sneak attack of the potential
enemy, whoever that enemy might be.

Hokkaido is not more successful.
Japanese always are choosy
about the locations to which they
wish to emigrate. They have and
would again leap at moving to
Hawaii, California or Brazil but
they show little inclination to do
any pioneering.
When the Japs overran Man

few hundred thousand-and

way.
Repatriation figures further
bear out the Japanese reluctance
to leave their homeland for other
than sunny chimes and good liv-
ing conditions. Of 5,500,000 repa-
triates returned to Japan since
the end of the war, only 1880, 900
