Molotov Agrees
Asia for Asians
Is Best Policy

GENEVA, R-Soviet Foreign
Minister v. M Molotov told the
Geneva conference Thursday he
agrees entirely with the Asia-for-
ASianS declaration of Chinese
Communist Foreign Minister Chou
En-Lai.
Molotov, in his first policy
speech before the Donation con-
ference, said a peaceful solution
Of the Korean problem can be
found if the delegates proceed
from the principle that the peo-
pies of Asia have the full right to
settle their affairs themselves"
"Other states, the participants
of the Geneva Conference" he
said, "are called upon to assist the
Asian peoples in this respect by
their friendly efforts"
Molotov spoke after Australian
Foreign Minister Richard Casey
told the conference some United
Nations troops may have to re-
main in Korea until the divided
peninsula is unified under demo-
cratic government. Many diplo-
mats here are convinced this may
never happen-at least not in the
near future.
On the whole the speech was
mild and notable for the absence
of personal attacks on Western
political figures, but MolotoV did
assail the United States for what
he called its aggressive course"
"As far as the United States Of
America is concerned" he said,
"the government Of the country
is openly pursuing an aggressive
course in regard to the Chinese
Peoples Republic. This aggres-
sive course of the U.SA. at the
same time is affecting the whole
situation in Asia"

NEXT: THE COBALT

Reliable reports reveal the United States is now
capable of producing cobalt bomb, which is far more
deadly than the hydrogen bombs exploded in the Pa
cific in March and April The cobalt bomb is actually
HYDROGEN bomb encased in shell Of cobalt
On being vaporized in explosion, cobalt, I'M
like steel which has been used in the past, is trans
formed into a radioactive cloud of far more pene-
trative strength than radium.
The cloud is said to be able to travel thousands
of miles and covers an area hundreds Of miles in dia-
meter It is this type Of bomb which has been termed
the greatest threat to civilization and this is the bomb
Einstein said might annihilate life on earth.
One difficulty about the weapon is the fact that
it cannot be tested in the Pacific anywhere else
in the world, because of the deadly consequences.
However, it is reliably reported us. scientists learned
enough in the recent hydrogen bomb test to build the
cobalt bomb and maintain it ready for though
no tests are made with it.
The advent Of this third atomic bomb casts a
threat over humanity which has never been equalled
in the history of the human race Even if the atomic
and hydrogen bombs did not make it evident that
atomic warfare cannot be permitted this earth, the
arrival Of the cobalt bomb makes it obvious that such
weapons must not be used in any
These new weapons which actually stagger the
imagination can either be the downfall of civilization,
or light the way to of industrial development.
The present generation is in the unique position
Of being responsible for the course be followed The
choice, even among aggressors should not be hard
to make.
