OF Radio, ~, Films
b ,he A..eeia.sd pre..

NEW YORK, Mar. 16.-
An extensive new program Of
religious radio. teleyision and
films aimed at conveying fun-
damentals of faith and avoiding
sticky sentiments planned
by Southern Baptists.
The new program will extend
Southern Baptist broadcasting
into Northern metropolitan CEN
tiers.
DR.. Paul NJ. Stevens of Atlanta,
Ca, director of the Southern
Baptist Radio and Television
Commission, said in announcing
the project yesterday, the spon-
sors plan to avoid the "shal-
low kind of religion" which he
said has become the vogue Of
the airways.
DR.. Stevens said at a news
conference that perhaps the
most effective religious radio
television work is now being
done by Lutherans and Roman
Catholics.
Outlining the Southern Bap-
fist denominations plans, he
said: 1--WE are going to try to
go back to fundamental Biblical
teachings. We believe that is
the greatest contribution we can
make to religious life in Amer
ica."
DR.. Stevens said much of the
religious broadcasting now on
the air is "a synthetic religion.
a sort of religious cod liver oil
that becomes nauseating." He
added that you can't grow great
Americans feeding them that"
He said the new Southern Bap-
fist program will have steady
nationwide output of radio and
television programs and films
and by next year will have an
annual budget of about S700,0 900.
The denomination, whose
membership ranks only behind
the Methodists among Profess
tantS, plans to start construction
soon on a 5000, 900 Baptist radio
teleytsion center in Fort Worth,

plan to use atomic weapons only
in the event of a world war, rul-
ing out their use in what he
called possible "brush-fire" con-
f1icts.
/ Asked what he thought about
the possibility of a conflict in
the Far East, where Communist
China constantly is renewing
threats of invasion of Formosa.
Mr.. Eisenhower said there always
is the possibility of war.
An Era of Tension
Remarking that we are living
in a time which it would be
foolish to say was characterized
by normal serenity in interna-
tional relations. the President
said therefore the possibility of
war is greater than people of his
generation were raised with.
| He pointed out that he grew
up in a period when there was
complete confidence and no
threat Of war in the world and
American military forces fell
! away to very small numbers.
The present uncertain times
require greater vigilance and
greater diversion of manpower
to national security. he empha-
sized.
And that is one of the reasons
why. he added, chat we should
devote every possible effort to
seeking to establish peace in the
world.
The President told a questioner
| that the matter of civil defense
in the hydrogen bomb age is
| serious problem from which
many recoil, not wanting to
look it squarely In the face.
Purpose Of FalIout Report
A recent Atomic Energy COM
mission report giving informa-
ton on effects of radioactive
fallout following an H-bomb ex-
plosion was intended to be re-
assuring by pointing out that 1t
is possible for human beings to
protect themselves against this
radioactivity danger, he said.
Emphasizing that this report
was not intended to be terrify-
ing, he said no one ever made a
good decision when he was
frightened ito death. He re-
marked that it was a great chore
to give the people the facts about
what can be done to. protect
themselves without terrifying
them.
In response to another ques-
ton, Mr.. Eisenhower said that.
of course, any American city Is
always going to be vulnerable to
atomic attack-that the problem
is to reduce the degree of vulner-
ability.

The Aruba's case is similar to
that of another Finnish tanker,

ship was forced to put into
Singapore for fuel and water,
British officials barred its de-
