Einsfein And The Future


i est living scientist on earth, issued
timely, if not horrible, warning to all
mankind few days ago. IF the hydrogen
bomb is finally produced" declared the
man whose scientific discoveries made the
A-bomb possible, humiliation of any life
on earth is within range of technical pos
sibilities."
What a frightful, what a CHASTITY pre-
diction this is! Yet, how absolutely and ir-
revocably true For whom light of what
already happened at Hiroshima, Nagaski
and Bikini-can deny even for moment
the somber reality of Prof. Einstein's
statement?
Civilization-if we can call it civiliza-
tion-has now reached new high in the
development of science. We are now able,
by utilizing the brains and the know-hoW
of our scientists and engineers to bring
about our own complete destruction. The
weapons now ready, the weapons about
to be manufactured are of such incom-
prehensible power b.. such utter destruc-
tive force that not only the human species
face humiliation, but with it all earthly
life.
Yes, we have the power to create from
this earth of ours one gigantic graveyard,
but with the distinction that there shall
be no need for graves :. no need for
headstones, for crypts and tombs for there
shall be none left to bother themselves
with the needs and conventionalities of a
civilization already shattered and lying
smoldering and devastated ruins.
4 + +
ON THE OTHER HAND, however, we
W may utilize this terrifying power and
actually lead our people into the true
Promised Land that the Good Book speaks
about. With the vast power now at our
disposal we could d actually turn the
deserts into gardens the frigid and frozen
lands Of our Far North into a virtual para
disc
Yes, without boasting we can say that
Man-for the first time in all the annals
of history could actually become the
Master of his own Destiny
But to do that, as Prof Einstein put it,
Man must turn towards the constructive
utilization of this new power that he has
mastered. The monstrous armaments race
between Russia and the United States,
now going full blast, is not only dis
astrous illusion" but its consequences are
truly beyond measure.
There should be way there must
be a way for human beings to settle their
problems peacefully Senators Mcmahon
and Tydings have recently made certain
proposals towards ending the killing arm
ament race between the East and the
West. And now Winston Churchill, the
man who Lit the fuse in the little town of
Fulton, No. some years ago that ushered
In the Cold War between the East and
the West, suggests "top level meeting"
between the heads of England, Russia and
the United States to make yet another at
tempt to bring peace to the peoples of this
earth.
All the principles of Christianity de-
mand that there shall be peace. For if we
won't have peace e. . if we should ignore
our Christian morals and responsibilities
the fate of Man shall be too horrible even
to contemplate.

THOMAS AUSTIN, S32 Weaver
ST., radio repairman: 81 don't think
woman r as smart as men be-
cause women do not have the
broad scope of knowledge that
men have. Mans interests are more
varied and he is interested in such
things as government, sports, poll
teal opinions and feelings and in
numreable other things that make
for a we'll rounded person. The
average women is confined to her
home and does not have the OPP
p%ortunity that a man has to get
out. Her activities are centered in
and around the home"

st. HOUSEWIFE: "Well, that is a
cry difficult question to answer
md | have never given such a
question a thought. Now that you
ask though, | would say that in
ONE cases men are smarter and
in other cases women are smarter.
| grant you that there are a lot
of smart men in the world, but
there are also a lot of dumb ones

Accuse 81
OF Murder

ELISEBETHVILLE, Belgian
Congo CAMP Rumors that Euro
peans were operating a trade in
canned native flesh, especially
that of young African girls"
caused 81 Africans to be accused
of murder here in their desire to
protect their women and children.
The odd situation arose last
February when it was rumored
that Europeans were kidnapping
Africans to "add to the meat ra-
ton" Male Africans, frightened
by the rumors, formed village de-
tense equals and patroled roads
outside villages at night, armed to
kill any and all intruders.
As a result of this defensive"
measure, one African was killed
and another severely injured. Last
June a crowd of 10000 treatened
a Czech sculptor and his wife be-
cause the artist was seer working
on busts, which the natives mis-
took for heads of murdered fellow
townsmen. The white couple was
flown to South Africa by the po-
lice.
With the coming of the rumors,
Africans have rejected with dis
taste and horror any canned beef
or pork. Despite all efforts to dis
pei this feeling, natives have insist
ed they will not be turned into
cannibals."
Some officials blame the attitude
upon the appearance on the Con-
go market of a canned product
bearing an African head as a
trademark.

while the women take care of a

Stay Alive If
Walking Roads

T. j. Kauer, Director of the
Ohio Department of Highways, to-
day urged all those who have to
use the highway as a walking
place TO keep alert and stay alive.
Fifty pedestrians were killed on
rural state highways during the
first six months of 1850, accord
ing to statistics compiled by the
State Highway Departments Di-
vision Of Traffic and Safety.
Director hauer pointed out
that it was particularly dangerous
at this time of the year for per-
sons afoot, since Fall and Winter
months mean earlier darkness,
which greatly increases pedestrian
hazards.
When walking along the high
way where there are no side
walks, pedestrians were strongly
urged to walk to the left of the
roadway, facing approaching traf-
fic. Then it is possible to step off
the highway in quick order
should the occasion demand.
Moreover, don't depend on the
motorists seeing you at night, 2
cautioned Kauer. Assume respon-
sibility for your own safety.
Wear light colored clothing or
something that will reflect light.
Carry a flashlight, for instance,
or knot a handkerchief on your
arm or carry a newspaper.
All pedestrians were also eau
tiored to look carefully and not
to start across the highway unless
there was plenty of time to get
all the way acrosse before ap-
preaching traffic could bear down
on them.

many reacted strongly yesterday
against a Dutch-proposed COM
promise plan for use of German
troops in the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization army in
Europe.
A West German spokesman in
Bonn declared the plan discrim-
mated against West Germany"
and is unacceptable because the
Germans would not be regarded
as full allies of the IL member
nations.
However, deputies of the pact
nations will meet here today in
an effort to reach agreement on
the plan. If France. opposed to
the rebirth of German general
staff, agrees, the plan probably
will form the broad basis Tor using
German troops in West Europe's
defense.
The plan would put into the
hands of a civilian high commits
sioner the recruiting of about
10000 German troops and their
use in brigade combat units of
1000 to 5000 men each with
other Western forces. The Dutch
idea is that the equivalent of
10 divisions could be obtained
from West Germany over a three
year period.
