Crpmjko and 'the Atom
l While Member Gromyko, representing Russia, refused to go
along. with the United State proposal to the UN commission on
atomic energy that the big five relinquish the right of veto on
nUrU-ra dealing; with .this subject, he did present a plan which
ghow a constructive interest in working out a solution. What
Gromyko presented was briefly this:
)- .1. An agreement of the nations not to use the atomic bomb,
to Xorfeid production or keeping of such a weapon and the early
destruction of materials for making such a bomb.
i Forming, a commission for control of atomic energy which
would lock to. its peacetime development, the exchange of
scientific information and study methods of enforcement of
prohibitions,
In the present state of suspicion and fear it is doubtful if
the United State would assent to such. a program. We still cling
to the second part of the famous adage: "Trust God-and keep
your powder dry." The attitude and course of Russia are such
to chill our eagerness to share
arsenal. j .
Nevertheless, Mr. Gromkyo should be encouraged to elabor
ate on his proposal, particularly on the last item: International
control. Just how would he vest power for inspection and en
forcement of the prohibitions? That is the very heart of the
matter. The abandonment of the privilege of veto was the ap
proach offered by Bernard Baruch, member for the United
States. It Is difficult JLo see how control may be exercised if
one of. the great powers can interject a decisive negative. Grom
y ko must clear that, hurdle first, not merely refer it to a new
cornjBoasion for study. I
Russia is enveloped in fear, and conceive its security lies
In retaining freedom of action by right of veto. But the United
States walks In fear loo. not fear of another power, but fear
of failure to clinch the peace. The trenchant phrase of Franklin
XUJbsevclt tittered In the dark days of 1933 comes to mind: '"Our
greatest fear is fear itself." It is hard to see how the differences
eta be bridged om this and other issues so long as fear grips the
nations and some are unwilling to put trust in the United Nations.
Nevertheless Gromyko'a proposal merits thoughtful study.
There'll Be a New Build -
Joe Louis has done it again and there will be sympathy but
. little regret in the fact that Billy Conn announces he's "through."
The Pittsburgh boy who came up through the ranks of the light
I fayweights never was regarded as a real match for the heavy -
weight champ and there always was a suspicion that Louis coast -e
J almost too long in the last scrap which left Conn with a
surprisingly good , claim to a re-match. Now the bubble has
Lurst and without scattering as much money as expected and
ILke Jacobs will have to stage a new build-up before he can
rick the customers $190 a seal again. Anyway, Conn can salt
away what is left of his $298,000 cut after taxes, and the residue
- should be a quite sufficient compensation for almost getting his
head knocked off. At least the headlines both before and after
the dull affair were a welcome variation from those of a year
ago this' week, one of which read: "Pacific Casualties in Big
Jump."
( A bureau ei mines official says there ar many gas fields
which could be opened up in western Oregon. But let's wait
until after the legislature. There's no use of having too much
tf anything at one time.
Stalin now decrees rigid observance of "the rules of military
politeness." Maybe a discharged veteran was found kicking his

CHICAGO, June X0. Somei ne made a mistake in inducing the
riethodat bishop of New York and the Lutheran churches out
!ert to seek recall of Myron Taylor from the Vatican. Th reason
lYesident Truman stood by his assignment was this (which he could
rst, w did not umj):
The Vaucan has the best listening post in Europe Mr Taylor
it an Eptsccpanan, I think, although Who's Who does not list his
reUftost. while Mr. Truman la a Baptist. To suspect
they anight be influenced by Catholicism would be.
to place a religious charge against them. There la
noUiina religious about their placing of Taylor.
This government is looking for information. Indeed,
to some Europe countries which we have not
recognised, baa Poland' the information picked up?
around the Vatican fills a void otherwise nearly
ct mplete.
i The matter haa assumed some importance be-r-ue
it projects split in the Christian front around
the wockl at a time when' the foreign . ministers of
the big four (Churchill calls it the big two and a

was se atear to the vsHicsn in foreign policy that no divergence lay
between their common detire to resist atheism, or stateism. or what
ever rommunisra may be called currently in your area and indeed

Therefcre when Methodist Inhop Oxnsm. offers the excuse
that "Cardinal Speftanan knows the Roman Catholic church does
not bebeve in mwriiin of churc h and state" he is wrong in current
f ct, sm matter how he mtlght stand in ancient theory. The only big

I? j sia. There, both Methodiaticm and Lutheranism are practically

perhams they prassegaodue more for it as they have been accused

church and state eerwhere.)
The nearest thing to church-and-state we have had In this
country was the Methodist boa iff of prohibition, public morals and
smethtnsf else, which reigned oer the president and congress in

has deteriorated irii favor because
its vaunted "science" has been
