Referring to scandals disclosed
by a House Ways and Means SUBJ

added:
The shocking and very dis

1.-Two Scientists Warn
A-Bomb Race Nears
Point OF No Return
BY the Associated Press

CHICAGO, Nov. 1.-Two atomic
scientists say the United States
and Russia are approaching
point of no return" in the race
to build huge stockpiles of A.
| bombs.
They propose vigorous ex-
Iploration" be made of new ideas
for possible agreement with the
Soviet Union-perhaps plan that
would permit both nations to
keep limited stockpiles of atomic
explosives.
Written for Scientific Bulletin.
The proposal was advanced in
the Bulletin of the Atomic Scien-
fists by David R. Inglis and Donald
"A. Flanders, who said:
Atomic energy becomes in
Icreasingly difficult to bring under
control as time passes. When the
total stockpile of either side is so
large that it would be possible to
conceal an amount sufficient to
have decisive or important effect
in war, it may no longer be pos
sible to initiate control scheme"
Mr.. Inglis and Mr.. Flanders
were with the wartime Manhattan
project that developed the worlds
first atomic bomb. Both now are
with the Atomic Energy Commits
Ision's Argonne National Labora.
tory in Chicago.
They ccntended no atomic con-
troll scheme is worth considering
unless it would work in spite of
mutual dlstrust.
| Any agreement to do away with
A-bomb stockpiles completely.
they said. would require at least
one side to take an enormous risk
that the other might be conceal
| ing sufficient bombs for an effec-
tive surprise attack.
minimum Aim"
| Perhaps the minimum aim
worth striving for is to limit the
growth of stockpiles to a point
well below saturation Complete
destruction Of a nations power,
which would have the tWo-fold
effect of keeping the temptation
for atomic surprise attack within
bounds and of maintaining the
possibility of eventually establish
ing fully effective control" they
said.
Although Russia has rejected
the Baruch proposal for eliminate
ing A-bomb stockpiles entirely, the
scientists said. THE prospect Of
atomic destruction is indeed too
grim to permit us to stop negoti-
ating. or even to stop thinking
about the problem, after trying
with only one scheme"

He called on the White House
and the Civil Service Commission
to take immediate action to i'm.
