American and Russian Atomic Plans
The chief difference between the Baruch and Gromyko
rilans for control of atomic enersry is the difference
enforcement. Both plans agree in the destruction of existing
bombs, but the American propose to yield the atomic secrets
and destroy their bombs only after international control is
assured and put into force by ratification of half the nations
of the world. The Russian plan would forbid use and pro
duction of atomic weapons, provide for their destruction
three months after the world convention is ratified and
reauire each signatory nation within six months after en
actment to provide its own legislation providing penalties
for violators, with international controls emDracing a sys
tern of sanctions aeainst unlawful use.
The Baruch plan would require international control as
mired before atomic secrets were yielded and bombs de-
stroyed while the Gromyko proposal takes the control out
of .American hands by international convention. The Unit
ed States demands that each of the Big Five foreswear its
rights under the United Nations charter to veto security
action as far as atomic control is concerned while the Soviets
maintain that the veto right must be preserved in all in.
stances. Mr. Baruch said:
"There must be no veto to protect those who violate their
solemn agreements not to develop or use atomic energy for de
structive purposes. The bomb does not wait upon debate. To
delay may be to die. . . . Before a country is ready to relinquish
any winning weapons, it must have more than words to reassure it.
It must have a guarantee of safety, not only against the offenders
in the atomic area, but against the Illegal users of other weapons
bacteriological, biological, gas perhaps why not? against
war itself."
' Restriction of the veto right of any member of the Big
Five nations on the atomic issue would probably force the
yielding of veto right on other weapons, which will be fought
by suspicious Russia. But a war cannot be prevented as
long as the veto power privilege of any nation can upset
world peace and security. Hut the united btates wouio De
foolish to destroy its weapons without guarantee that it
will not be attacked.
The Compromised Draft Bill
The orolonged deadlock over the continuation of the selec-
tive service law has been broken by a compromise that ex
tends the draft law for nine months for all childless men
in the 19 through 44 age brackets and top to bottom pay
raises of 10 to 50 nercent for the armed forces. The 18
vear old youths escape service under the measure.
The original house bill banned the induction of teen agcrs
and provided for suspension of inductions until October 15
during which time the armed forces would try to me'et their
requirements through voluntary enlistments.
While the induction of men up to 44 is authorized in the
compromised version, army officials have repeatedly stated
that they have no intention of inducting men over 29, the
top limit set in President Truman's recent proclamation.
Fathers already in service will be discharged on application
after August 1. A ceiling of 1,550,000 officers and men for
the army is provided on July 1 and of 1,070,000 on July 1,
1947. Farm deferments are the only ones continued.
It is estimated that 13,000 will be available for the draft
In Spntemher in the 19 vear srroun and 9000 monthly after
that time. Just why congressmen are so concerned over
the teen agers as to risk the security or tne nation until
the emergency is over and fulfill its foreign commitments is
hard to understand. Uncertainty of their future during the
long months of debate has been far worse on the youths than
service in army or navy wouici nave neen.

Recollections j!

By Don Upjohn
The virtually unanimous de
cision which seems to have
swept the country that the
Louis-Conn tit-tat-toe exhibi
tion was one of history's worst
washouts because no blood was
shed but a drop from one of
the contender's eyelids, leads us
to believe that the time is get
ting ripe for some presidential
candidate to run on a platform of
bread and circusses and giving
hack to the people gladiators,
man eating lions, men for them
to eat, and all of the right smart
exciting times provided by the
Caesars. It seems if there must
be a contest to determine who is
the world's most brutal abvs-
smal Brute, folks now want it
both brutal and abyssmal with
none of this pussyfooting. Yea,
it takes something more than a
nosebleed to stir the pulses of
folks nowadays, provided, of
course, it is the other fellow who
has the nosebleed. Yea, folks
like blood, but they always seem
to prefer to see the bright red
stream flowing from the other
guy's arteries.

I
Moscow's counter to Amer
ica's atomic energy proposals
was so astounding zm to pre
elude immediate response; in
deed, it has been a moment for
quick thinking but slow answer.
Uncle Sam's offer to throw
overboard the vast advantage
which he holds through pos
session of the atomic bomb
secret was purely voluntary. It
was meant to be for the bene
fit of mankind. Thus it has
been disconcerting to have the
mouth of his gift-horse put un
der the microscope.
StMl, the Russian proposition
calls for careful consideration.
It's no good saying as one
hears said that the Soviet
move throws a monkey-wrench
into the machinery. A motion
is before the U.N. atomic en
ergy commission and must be
Ironed out. President Truman
himself, while reaffirming the
American policy, has said the
matter will be negotiated and
may lead to agreement.
Difficult Road Ahead
There is such divergence of
view on fundamental points in
the plans that diplomatic circles
in Washington are wondering
whether another controversy
might develop among the great
poweis. American officials,
while indicating hope that the
differences may be cleared up,
foresee a long and difficult road
ahead.
Among the outstanding dif
ferences in the two plans is one
which seems to carry the Impli
cation that Russia is entertain
ing grave doubts, or let's say,
is protecting herself against un
toward contingencies. This has
to dc with the American sug
gestion that it would be willing
to dispose of its atomic explo
sives altogether after interna
tional atomic control is created.
Moscow, on the other hand,
wants Uncle Sam's bombs de
stroyed, and the manufacture
of others stopped, before the in
ternational machinery is work
ing.
In short, Moscow is playing
safe by trying to render Amer
ica atomically impotent right at
the outset. Well, maybe that's
a smart move to make, although
it isn't particularly complimen
tary to the motives of the Unit
ed States, and it would seem to
indicate suspicions which cer
tainly can't make international
relations among the Big Three
and let none think that the
suspicions have been entertain
ed solely by Russia. It has been
an epidemic which has account
ed in major degrees for the dif
ficulties in the U.N. security
council deliberations and in the
unhappy conferences of the Big
Four foreign ministers.
The Russian counter-proposal
is lacking in what strikes many
observers as being a vital ele
ment. This Is any suggestion of
what cooperation in world re
habilitation Moscow Is prepared
to offer in exchange for any
such unprecedented concession
as America is asked to make.
After all, the United States does
possess the secret of how to
make atomic bombs, she has
the equipment and scientific
