LEONS TOTS In the Day's News B FRANK JENKINS Today's this-screwball-w o r 1 d bulletin: The hydrogen bomb could be rigged to create a dust cloud of death killing all humans in the world. . . the cloud would be radioactive dust. . . . the dust would come from the harmless materials enclosing the bomb. these materials would be made radioactive by the explosion, scattered in the air and carried by the winds. The dust would poison the air we breathe. . . it would settle to earth, contaminating every plant and everything that hu mans use in living. ... a dust cloud could be made that would be active in killing power for a few days, a few weeks, a few months or for THOUSANDS OF YEARS. THIS statement is made by Dr. Leo Szilard, biophysicist of the University of Chicago, one of the nation's foremost atomic scientists. Its plausibility is con curred in by Dr. Hans Bethe, physicist of Cornell university. Dr. Harrison Owen, chemist of the University of Chicago, and Dr. Frederick Scitz. physicist of the University of Illinois. TO ALL this Dr. Paul Elliott, Texas physicist, who did war work on the atom bomb, adds: "Several hydrogen bombs, ex ploded simultaneously high in the air, might change the earth's orbit around the sun or speed up its rotation." He added: "That would change the sea sons. For instance: Winter might be made longer and summer shorter. The days could be short er, so that we would have 370 of them in a year instead of 365." (Elliott's theory is based on the fact that the earth receives its energy from the sun at the rate of about four pounds of hydrogen exploding every sec ond.) THE situation suggested by these scientific bu esses re minds us inevitably of a band of happily quarreling children playing with a million pounds of nitroglycerine. I'VE often remarked in this column that our techniaues of disagreement and conflicts arc growing FANTASTICALLY FASTER than our techniques oi peaceful agreement. Where that can lead us to is pointed out by these gazers into atomic science's crystal ball. COAL strike notes gleaned from the teletype's chatter: chatter: "Hardest hit are needy per sons in poorer sections of big cities who have been used to Irene Rich Weds Business Man New York, March 1 (UJ0 Irene Rich, girlishly glamorous at 88, gave up a 32-year career as a screen and stage star today to marry an aging utilities mag nate who wants her to be "just a housewife." Although Miss Rich is a vet eran of three real-life marriages and scores of movie weddings, she said she was ".is excited as any bride could be'' about her marriage to George H, Clifford, a wealthy 68-year-old widower she met two years ago. She said he had courted her strenuously for only two months. "My goodness," she said. "I'm so excited I've even forgotten the name of the minister." The slender, grey-haired grand mother became Mrs. Clifford in a "quiet ceremony" in her lux urious New Sherry-Netherland hotel apartment overlooking Central park. The Cliffords will stay in New York until they go on "a long honeymoon trip" in April or May. Miss Rich said the marriage "definitely" would end her ca reer which she began as a velvet voiced silent screen siren in 1918 and ended as a favorite for ma tron's roles 180 films later. buying coal by the basketload. In St. L,ouis, Mike raiozzoio, a hasketlnari truck dealer savs: 'To day's my last day. . . . I've just rlriimn 900 mi1r intn Tllinnis looking for some fuel to buy, but man i una any. . . .1 guess tne poor people win just nave to freeze'." ' IN THE coal fields, many miners arc spending a part of each day trying to find fuel for their family stoves and furnaces. They pick up bits of the fuel from outcroppings on hillsides where coal is near the surface. The diggers, who show no sign of going back to the pits without a contract, are having a hard time to feed and clothe their families. And so on. TOUGH? Yes, surely. " Modern strikes are. close kin of WAR. War is tough. It never pay3. Its fruit is unlimited suf fering. Nobody wants war ever. But when our leaders get us into a place where war is inevitable we take orders and go to war. We have to. There is no other way out. That is what has to happen when people find themselves unable to agree and have to fight it out.
