And of course within these areas
your chances of injury would be
even greater. But your chances of
recovery from radioactivity or
other injuries would be good.
And if you have a few minutes
warning of an impending air raid,
these chances are vastly improved.
What should you do, even il you
have only few seconds warning?
The first thing to remember is to
fall flat on your face. If you have
time to pick spot to fall, choose
first to flatten out against a cellar
wall, or even an inside wall, or be-
meath a sturdy table or bench. Or
if you are outside, drop beside the
base Of building, or fall into a
ditch or gutter And when you fall,
cover your face in the crook of
your arm, and cover any exposed
skin with whatever is handy and
hold it for several seconds after the
explosion to prevent flash burns.
To you folks in the home towns
OF the nation and in the rural areas
there is little danger of a direct
atomic bomb overhead. for the
enemy would most certainly aim
at one or more Of some 16 strate-
gic target areas in large cities and
industrial areas. But your neigh
bors in your nearest large city
might suffer as follows: A surprise
daylight attack on an average city
would produce about 10000 casual
ties. OF this total, approximately
10000 would be killed outright or
die the first day. An additional TO-
600 would die in the following five
or six weeks. OF the $4,000 re-
mainder, about $4,000 might be suf-
fering from burns, 10000 from me-
chanical injuries and 5000 from
radiation injuries. This total of over
100 per cent arises from the fact
that g large number of casualties
would be suffering from two or
more types of injuries. To top this
staggering total, there follows the
complex and difficult job Of evacua-
ton, either after the bomb drop,
or of course, if there is warning,
preferably before the drop.
And here is where folks in strict
ly rural communities and the small
towns Of the country can play a
tremendously important role in
their states civil defense set-up.

If your town and your county is
chosen as an evacuation site, plans
may be made beforehand to care
for several thousands or even a mil
lion or more evacuees from a
stricken city in the following order:
Cd school age children; (2) chill
dren under six years, accompanied
by mothers or escorts; CD pregnant
women; (D the aged, infirm; 60
inmates Of institutions, hospitals,
homes and state or county institu-
tons; and (6) all others except
those serving in essential capaci-
ties such as industry.
Your town or your county must
be organized to care for these peo-
pie to help provide transportation,
health service, sanitation, police,
fire protection, water supply, food,
housing, disqualification, morgue
services, and dozen other essen
tials, including welfare service.
Your state civilian defense ad-
ministration and his entire staff
running down into the cities, towns
and counties, should be trained to
meet every contingency of such
catastrophe. This requires weeks
and months Of organizational work
and intense planning and entails the
draft or volunteer of thousands of
individuals, both men and women,
who should be trained and edu-
Gated, simply. as Gov. Millard
Caldwell, director of the national
civilian defense administration
said; to save their own lives and to
assist in saving the lives of their
neighbors.
Here are few musts in pre-
pairing your house after an afraid
warning: Don't let trash pile up;
shut doors, windows and pull down
blinds; throw your electric switch;
if you burn coal, close draft doors;
keep flash-light handy; don't light
a match; have radio, first-aid
equipment and a supply of canned
goods; don't eat open food; don't
rush outside after a bombing; drink
only bottled water or other bottled
liquid; don't start rumors and use
the telephone only for emergency.
There is little danger of radio
active clouds after the first two
minutes after the bomb burst.

power. The Soviet Union has
demonstrated willingness to use
military force to subjugate neigh
boring countries and to compel the
populations of these countries to
accept communist ideologies.
The peace of the world is threat
ened, not by a conflict of ideals or
systems, but by the danger Of ag-
erosion. The Russians are enti-
tied to be Communists if they see
fit to permanently accept the eco
nomic principles that go with the
system. AS Communists, they
would be no danger to the other
peoples of the world except for the
fact that the leaders OF the Com
munist regime are ready to use
force to compel other peoples to
accept their economic theories and
to suppress any freedom of thought
that causes disagreement.
We think it is important for
the people of the United States to
understand that the danger to the
peace of the world stems from mill
tarism rather than from any other
ism. Faced with this threat, the
United States has taken the lead
in rearming the free peoples of tAe
world, not for the purpose of COM
polling Communistically inclined
nations to become capitalistic, but
for the purpose of preventing the
communists from regimenting the
free world, obliterating their free
doms and liberties and compelling
them to goose-step with the Com
munists.

ing, he points out, however, will
jump to the rate of sixty-five bill
lion dollars annually, compared
with only thirteen billion in the
year before Korea. These factors,
he adds, mean increased initiation
AIRY pressures.
One of the bad effects Of infla-
ton in this country, with marked
increases in the prices of goods, is
the dependence of our allies anc
friendly nations upon US for con-
sumner and capital goods, as well
as the hardware of war. The price
in this country "tends to become
the world price for many commodi-
ties" Obviously, the higher our
prices go, the less our allies can
purchase and the more difficult it
will be for them to rearm and
make their full contribution to the
military strength that is necessary
for the security of the free world

another atomic. explosion is
reported inside the Soviet Union on
the same day that the Atomic
Energy Commissions test of tao
teal in the Nevada desert resulted
in only minor detonation.
The two. Incidents set off spccu-
lation 1t was noted that the Rus
sian explosion is not described as
an "atomic bomb" and this led to
the belief that it might involve
the testing of atomic, artillery
shells. T. is recalled that Prime
Minister Joseph Stain told news
paper men on October 9th that
there would be "tests on atomic
bombs of various calibers" in the
future.
While no official report has
come from the experiment in Neva-
da, it is noted that the blast"
appeared as a brief and small
flicker of light tor observers on
mountainsides overlooking the area
1t involves, in the opinion OF. re-
porters, only a few tons of the ex-
plosive. This compares with the
Hiroshima atomic bomb, which was
equivalent to twenty thousand tons
of T. N. T.
There is little to be gained by
the average person in attempting
to keep up with the relative. pro-
gress of atomic research in the
United States and Russia. The
presumption that hits nation is far
ahead of the Russians seems to be
well-founded. Certainly, we have
made more experiments than the
Russians in connection with atomic
explosions. Until something Off
cial comes along, we must rest on
the assumption that our scientists
and officials understand the situa-
ton. Disclosure of allSdetails to
the public would also give infor-
nation to the Russians.
U. S. Supreme Court
Reverses Itself
Reversing itself after two weeks
the United States Supreme Court
has granted hearing to the six
attorneys adjudged guilty of con-
tempt of court by Judge Harold r
Medina for their conduct during the
1949 conspiracy trial of eleven
Communist Party leaders.
The action of Judge Medina in
sentencing the attorneys for con
tempt of court is thoroughly sup
ported by the record of the case
During the nine-months trial, there
were, according to Judge Medina
more than forty different instances
of criminal contempt of court.
The issue before the Supreme
Court, however, was not whether
the lawyers were guilty of con-
tempt of court. 1t was asked to
determine whether a Judge had the
authority to make a summary de-
termination of contempt and inn
pose sentence himself, or whether

the action should have been taken
by another judge, after notice,
hearing and ans'opportunity for de-
,fense had been given the accused.
This issue goes to the essence OF.
our judicial procedure which, in al
most every instance, provides for
such notice, hearing and an OPP
portunity for defense. A trial for
contempt of court is one Of the
exceptions. This right has been
assumed by jurists for the pro-
lection Of the orderly processes of
their courts. 1t can only be sus-
tanned if it is necessary to sound
administration of justice.
1t is very rare when lawyer,
or an individual, is called upon to
face contempt Of court charge
When it occurs, the person involved
stands accused by the judge, who
sits in judgment upon him. 1t is
rare that any testimony is taken IN
cases where the contempt is alleged
to have occurred in the presence OF
the Judge himself.
Judge Medina, in his conduct OF
the famous trial, exhibited patti
ence that was unusual. Despite the
attempts of the lawyers for the
Communists to upset his judicial
temperan&nt, he maintained his
composure. He declined to punish
them for contempt during the trial
fearing that such action might in
fluence the jury in determining the
guilt or innocence of the Commun-
list Party leaders. Consequently
he waited until the long trial was
over and then summoned the laws
yers to the bench, where he found
them guilty and imposed jail SEN
fences.
Russian Militarism, Not
Communism Threat
In opening the 1851 session of
the United Nations General Assem-
bly,, now being held in Paris, Secre-
tary-General Trygve Lie said that
the organization has maintained its
efforts ''to establish harmony or
at least some form of peaceful CO
existence between the conflicting
interests and different ideologies
in the world"
There is only one reason why
peaceful co-existence" is impos-
sible. That is, the apparent will
lingness of some of the great
powers to use military power to
compel other peoples to accept ideo-
logies.
The world is composed of people
who have widely different religious
beliefs. The Christian religion is
not menace to the peace of the
world or the development of other
peoples because Christians do not
advocate the use of force to COM
pei people to become Christians.
The same observation applies to the
Mohammedans, the Confucianists
and those who belong to other reli-
gious orders.
In the economic world, there is
conflict between the capitalism
of the Western nations and the
communism of Soviet Russia. This
conflict would not imperil the peace
of the world if neither the CAPT.
talists countries nor the cemmun-
istic countries attempted to COM
pei other people to accept their
views through the use of military

Eisenhower's Strength Has Been Overestimoted;
Taft Will Grow Stronger as Campaign Neors

revert to his own sort Of 'isola-
tioniSm." The Senator has
been writing a book on foreign
policy and is presumably aware
of the criticisms. Between now
and the convention he doubtless
will make an effort to clarity his
position on world policy, though
there are many elements in the
electorate so strongly opposed to
him that they say they would
rather vote for any Democrat
than vote for Senator Taft. 1t
is always difficult to know how
strong the tendency of such a
group is to shift parties anyway.
Many Democrats professed to be
for Willkie on the day he was
nominated in 1910 but they
didn't stick with him.
S. The Democratic national
situation is more confused than
the Republican. President Tru-
man has made up his mind what
he will do about the nomina-
ton, but has told nobody. In
his ambiguous statements he
refers to the fact that he will
cross the nominating bridge
when he comes to it. His ten
dency is to avoid any solicita-
ton of delegations. This could
mean that he wants to be draft
ed, or that he is really angling
for a complimentary nomina-
ton that he could decline. He
can have the nomination if
he wants it and there will be
no contenderS till he takes him
self out of the race. He may
surprise everybody by announc-
ing that he will run for United
States Senator from Missouri.
