Pessimist Doesn't Have It
All To Himself; Some Ray
Of Hope Held For Optimist
By BEM PRICE
Anocieted Press News Analyst
WASHINGTON OB The Russians-
keep testing nuclear weap
ons in Siberia. Fom time to time
the United States lets go with a
few on a mid-Pacific island.. The
British plan to do a bit of testing
in Australia.
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.
Genes are nature's built-in gadg
ets for determining whether chil
dren are going to have brown eyes
or blue, two heads or one, and
whether they are going to be idiots
or geniuses.
As it now stands, the situation is

enough to make a pessimist smile
a pessimistic smile, 01 course.
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.

ner said John M. Allison. U. S.
ambassador to Tokvo. had told
Forcien Minister Shigemitsu of
Japan it was lime 10 cau an in

the Soviet-Japanese dispute.
Peace talks between Japan and
Russia broke down in Moscow last
month. Japan demanded the re

lands, Kunashiri and Etorofu.

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."
