BALANCE POWER IN EUROPE

II the North Atlantic Pact to the security
and defense Of the United States. points
out that AT present. the balance of mill
taFy power Is conferred in the United
States. three thousand miles from the
heart Of Europe"
Then, the distinguished officer says
that the United States cannot count on
friends in western Europe if our strategy
In the event Of war dictates that we shall
first abandon them to the enemy with a
promise Of later liberation" This, how
ever, ID the only strategy possible if the
military balance Of power in Europe de-
ponds upon the bombers and reserve
strength On this side of the ocean.
General Bradley urges that the bal

Therefore. he thinks that our great
strength should be funneled to the west
ern area Of Europe in order to "ehal-

WOULD USE ATOMIC BOMB

The President of the United States
declares that he will not hesitate to use the
atomic bomb again if the welfare of the
United States and the democraeies Of the
world is at stake.
Mr.. Truman says that he hopes and
prays that he willn not have to make the
decision but that he wouldn't hesitate to
make it again. He referred to the use of
the bonb against Hiroshima and Maya
sah He ordered the use of the bomb be-
cause he thoughtjt would save 100000
American lives aud 100000 or 100000
japanese lives that would have been lost
in an assault On the japanese home
While the atomic bomb seems to be a
terrific weapon, there is no argument
against its use that does not apply equal
ly TO the use of the ordinary bombs
against heavily populated areas. The
United States and it's allies, in the recent
world war, did not hesitate to drop thous-
ands Of bombs upon the German cities
for the purpose Of carrying out what the
military experts eall the strategic mis-
sion" of destroying production and trans
portation facilities.
4 It may be explained. however, that
the German Luftwaffe adopted the mass
bombing technique and applied it ruth
lessly in the early days of the war and it
was not surprising that the allies, when
they acquired superior strength, gave the
Germans q dose of their own medicine.
OF course. there is moral problem
involved in the determination to use
bomb in places, where everybody knows
men. women and children will be killed.
The same question arises in connection
with the atomic bomb. although greatly
intensified. In connection with this phase
of the military problem one should not
overlook the belief. held by some capa-
Bile military men, that not much is gain
ed by strategic bombing and that the
course of war would be considerably
shortened by the use of all bombs against
enemy armed forces on the battlefield.
