Some scientists are worried that the radioactive fall-out from these experiments is going to produce a world population just, loaded with crazy, mixed-up genes.

The latest news from the world is-going-to-pot front comes from Atomic Energy Commissioner John von Neumann. Von Neumann said in a weekend world broadcast that within a few decades mankind will achieve global climate control and raise the awful prospect of weather warfare. Can you imagine sending light ning belts hurtling down on your enemies? Or maybe aiming a hur ricane? Or perhaps causing drought or floods? Coupled with atomic and hydro gen bombs, this weather warfare business has fascinating possibili ties for utter world destruction. But there is a ray of hope the silver lining in the mushroom cloud. The same day that Von Neumann predicted weather warfare in a few decades, the Los Alamos, N.M., atomic energy laboratory disclosed it had been working for the past year on atomic-powered rockets. Presumably, if and when these A-rockets are perfected, mankind will have the means to blast off for Mars, Venus, Jupiter, or any of the other assorted planets knock ing about in space. Who knows but what mankind will be able to find and colonize another planet somewhere in that mysterious void now known as the universe? By the time mankind succeeds in making ibis planet totally unin habitable, perhaps he will have perfected the means for leaving it. And this, naturally, raises an in teresting subject. Since accomoda tions in space ships probably will be fairly limited, who will get to make the journey to salvation? Under the Democratic system everybody should have an equal system there will be no argument since the bosses will make the selections. If the Democratic system is chosen with its interminable argu ments, talk about the rights of man and justice, then life will con tinue on planet "X" as it has on earth. Mankind, in brief, can go on being contrary. But if the Russian system with its planned economy and thought control is selected, it wouldn't be worth the trip anyhow. Wouldn't it be nice if we never had to make the choice? Pravda Accuses U.S. Of Trying To Block Treaty MOSCOW I Pravda accused the United Slates Thursday of try ing to block resumption of Soviet JaDanese relations by proposing an international conference to deal with territorial issues. The Communist Party newspa ner said John M. Allison. U. S. ambassador to Tokvo. had told Forcien Minister Shigemitsu of Japan it was lime 10 cau an in ternational conference to discuss the Soviet-Japanese dispute. Peace talks between Japan and Russia broke down in Moscow last month. Japan demanded the re turn of two southern Kurile is lands, Kunashiri and Etorofu. LONDON W An authoritative source said Thursday Britain re fused to join the United States in acknowledging two southern Ku rile islands are a part of Japan, The United States Wednesday Langlie, Magnuson Debate Cost Of Power From Dam SPOKANE Of! A sharp dis agreement on the cost and power potential of a high federal dam at Hells Canyon on the Snake River marked the first debate be-1 tween Washington State's sena torial , candidates, Monday night. Gov. Arthur B. Langlie, the Re publicans' choice to battle incum bent Warren G. Magnuson in the Nov. 6 general election, contend ed a federal dam in Hells Canyon would "saddle" the people of the formally announced full support for Japan's position in the stalled peace talks between Russia and japan. The British source said the For eign Office favors settlement of the dispute on historic grounds di rectly between Japan and Russia or possibly through the Interna tional Court of Justice. Americans bought 4,000 automo biles in 1900 and seven million in 1955. Pacific Northwest with 5-miU pow er. Magnuson, who polled 150.000 more "complimentary" votes than Langlie in the Sept. II primary election, retorted that power from the high dam would cost less than 3 mills. The two candidates, both exper ienced politicians with strong vote pulling power, greeted each other warmly when they met at a local television station before the start of the 30-minute, televised debate, off in a brisk but frindly man ner. Magnuson and Langlie each was given eight minutes to state his views on power, three minutes for rebuttal and two minutes for a closing statement. Neither man interrupted the other during the program, mod erated by Richard Hoover, news director for the TV station, KRE.M. Taking a slap at the Eisenhow power policy, Magnuson said "there has been a complete black out of new power starts in our area under the Republican admin-1 lsirauon wuu iuc Harbor" on the Snake River. "We have plenty of new starts," Langlie replied. "The partnership ; ...nlrina anrl for the first time in 10 years were not wnouy oepenueni uu -v propriations." Langlie said the high federal dam proposed for Hells Canyon would cost the taxpayers of the country 400 million dollars and would generate 900,000 kilowatts of power. He said the three low level dams proposed for the same area, to be constructed by the Idaho Power Co. would cost only 180 million dollars, yet would produce 1,400,000 kilowatts. Magnuson took sharp issue with Langlie's figures. "I'm not an engineer and I'm sure my opponent isn't either," Magnuson said when his turn be fore the microphone came. "He must depend on others. I have the facts on Hells Canyon and the people ought to Know. "Estimates by the Army En gineers and the Bureau of Recla mation are that the high (federal) dam would produce 1,122,000 kilo watts, the low dams 505,000. The cost is estimated at 6.6 mills for power by the low dams, under 3 mills for the high dam." JIFFY CANVAS TOPS FOR PICKUPS Available In Stock Far Immediate liutollorlo. Johnwell Upholstery 1427 S.
