TWO MEDFOHD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Thuridiy, March 23. 19J0 One Out of Four Scientists Asked to Return to War Work (Following ll thl third of tlx 41s natrhea prepared by the Amerlcai Society of Newspaper Fdltort' com miller on aiumit imiuimw lahnra-tlon with the bulletin of Ih atomic Hrlentlau, and dlilrlbuted b the United Press.) One of America's most rcsnon nible icicntistn this week railed for one out of four of his fellows to turn to war work without further delay. He is Dr. Edward Teller. Uni versity of Chicago physicist and authority on hydrogen , bomb theory. He is himself already at work at Los Alamos, N. M. presumably on this super-wea pon. "We are in a situation not less dangerous than the one we faced in 1939," Teller states In the I I W CONNOI Another Poultryman Praises Triangle "For Better Results" Here is the iciuil statement of Mr. Conner who hai thoroughly tested tht remits of Triingle Poultry Feeds.

"It is of the greatest importance that we realize it, We must realize that mere plans are not yet bombs, and we must realize democracy will not be saved by ideals alone. Onrjosite View The March issue of the Bulle tin of the Atomic Scientists con tains both Teller's article and another of opposite view by Al bert Einstein. The Bulletin Is a little-noted forum in which de bate America's leading men of science. "Back to the Laboratories" is the title over Teller's argument. "Arms Can Bring No Security" Is the title of Einstein s. Colleagues say Hungarian- born Teller has been urging for years since the days of the Manhattan project, in fact 'that science should find out if an H- bomb is possible. Whether or not the United States tries to make one. he Iibs argued, someone else almost certainly will and that someone will be working under the hammer and sickle. No one will be glad to dis cover more fuel with which a coming conflagration may be fed, Dr. Teller asserts. But sci entists must find a modest way of looking into an uncertain future." Scientists are not responsible for nature's laws, he holds. It is their job only to find out how they operate "and can serve hu man will. Raits With People The responsibility of determln Ine whether an H-bomb should he built and whether or how it should be used "rests witn tne American p eo p 1 e and their chosen representatives, con tends Teller. "As a citizen," he does not know "in what other way President Truman could have acted. Our scientific community has been on a honeymoon with me sons," he says. "Hydrogen bombs will not produce tnemseives. Neither will rockets nor radar. If we want to live on the tech nological capital of the last war. we shall come out second pest. This does not mean we should neglect research of teaching. If we get to worn now, it win oe sufficient to have perhaps one quarter of the scientists in war work. The load could be ligni- ened by rotation. If we wait too long, not even tne etion or an the scientists will suffice. Do we dare hope that all citi zens In their turn will realize that democracy will not be saved without some daring ideals? I do not believe that the hydrogen bomb or the whole arsenal of technological warfare will save the United States unless we ac cept the fact that the United States and all the freedom-loving people of the whole world must be saved. The grim alternative is that all of us will live in tyranny. Groups Must Try All groups, this 4Z-year-oid physicist pleads, must also keep trying for peace and "to the scientist, at least, it should be clear" he can contribute by help ing to make his country strong. Both Teller and Einstein, it happens, are ardent advocates of world government " as the only real solution. In this same Issue of the Bul letin of the Atomic Scientists, however, Einstein writes: "The idea of achieving secur ity through national armament is at the present slate or military technlciue a disastrous illusion The maxim we have been follow ing during these last five years has Deen, in snort, security through superior military power, whatever the cost. How. Einstein asks, do we therefore act: "Establishing mil itary bases at all possible strate gically important points on the globe. Arming and economic strengthening of potential allies. Within the country, concentra tion of tremendous financial power In the hands of the mil ilarv. militarization of youth close supervision of the loyalty of citizens in particular of the civil servants by a police force growing more conspicuous every day. Intimidation of people of independent political tmnicing. Indoctrination of the public by radio, press, school. Growing re striction of the range of public information under the pressure of military secrecy. Hysterical Character The armament race between the U. S. A. and the U.S.S.R originally supposed to be pre ventive, assumes hysterical cnar actor." Einstein calls "general annihi lation" a clear possibility, and asks: "Is there any way out oi the impasse?" "The first problem Is to do away with mutual fear and dis trust, he argues, solemn re nunciation of violence not only with respect to means of mass destruction is undoubtedly nec essary. Such renunciation, how ever, can only be effective if at the same time a supra-national judicial and executive body is set up, empowered to decide ques tions of immediate concern to the security of the nations. Even a declaration of the na tions to collaborate loyally in realization of such a "restricted world government would consid erably reduce the Imminent dan ger of war. un the last analysts, every kind of peaceful cooperation among men is primarily based on mutual trust and only sec ondly on institutions such as courts of Justic and others. This holds lor nations as wen as in dividuals. And the basis for trust is loyal give and take." FAIR WARNING Jacksonville. Tex.

Mar. 23 (U.R) Two babies born vesterdav cried audibly before birth, hospital authorities said today. Doctors said there were only about 150 cases of such prebirth audibility reported in medical literature The babies, both girls, were born about tune hours apart. The first infant born to Mrs. Robert G. Hallawell cried about five minutes before delivery was marie. The other baby was born to Mrs. Phillip Zapp. Both babies were reported doing well. Doctors at the hospital ex plained that on rare occasions Fluid in the uterus is released during birth. The fluid is replac ed by air, which causes the baby to begin normal breathing and makes it possible for him to cry before the Birth is accomplished. Civilian Pilot Found By Rescuers Seattle.

Mrs. George Larrimore, a neighbor who speaks Russian and who befriended the couple, told authorities that Salj's eight years In German prisoner of war and DP camps had made him distrustful of police. . Two weeks ago Saij saw a ra dio in a church and since had been listening to news broad casts to "learn the truth." He followed accounts of the Gubitchev C o p 1 o n espionage trial with intense interest, al though he spoke only a few words of English, Mrs. Larri more said. Saij became unduly alarmed every time he thought he heard his name mentioned in the Gubit chev broadcasts, but the often repeated word which struck ter ror in his heart was "spy." A physician called Mrs. Larri more in to console them. Not Fleeing Gestapo Saij became apprehensive last week when he saw the Simons packing to go on a fishing tour. and Mrs. Larrimore argued with tne couple lor 45 minutes to con vince them that the Simons were not fleeing the gestapo. Since that time the Saijs had become increasingly moody. When Mrs. ban was told that her husband had committed sui cide, she asked for a decent bur ial for his body. "Please do not throw him naked into a trench," she, pleaded.
