A Few Words
The Year That Was Fraugh+

The year that's rapidly going down the
drain has been fraught.
It may even become known as The Year
That Was Fraught. al
We are planning to hold onto the term
to use in describing it to our grandchildren
in the sweet bye and bye.
For 1861 was fraught with drama, sus-
pense, intrigue, mystery, fear, dread, sor-
row, despair.
Each year, of course, is filled with those
things. But 1861 had them in measure
never before seen in the history of the
planet we call home.
In this year man has finally realized
that, as well as having the potential to make
for himself happy world in which to live,
he now has the power to make himself
extinct.
All through the years he has had the
power of life or death, but never on the
scale that power has now assumed.
The feeling of fear that followed the
Russian resumption of nuclear testing is
unique in that it pervaded more of the world
than any single political idea before 1t. War
has always been hell, but always before
there was the certain knowledge that some
would be left to carry on the workings of
the world.
That knowledge is no longer certain.
