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

Trianglt was the firit to produce
this new improved type of baby
chick feed perfecting the rig7
Krumblued form of chick starter
and broiler ration. This anuiing

for easy feeding yet small enough to
be safe for the tiniest chicks. Pout

current bulletin of the atomic
scientists. "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."

Two Baby Girls Cry
Audibly Before Birth
Louisville. Kv.. 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. Mar. 23 OI.R) A
coast guard helicopter crew res
cued a downed civilian pilot to
day who was found crawling on
hands and knees on snow-covered
terrain three days after his
plane crashed in a mountain
wilderness 60 miles east of here.
It was not believed the pilot
was seriously Injured.
The helicopter, hampered by
fog and snow flurries landed In
a clearing about noon today and
waited for a para-rescue team,
dropped to the scene earlier, to
guide the survivor, Victor C.
Roberts, 30, Spokane, Wash., to
the coast guard plane.
Roberts was found by the
ground party three miles from
the wreckage of his plane, a
single engined rented Taylor
craft, shortly before the helicop
ter landed.

servants at Simon's house.
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.

declaring: "You can't take my
picture. No paper will print it.
I own the papers in this town."
After Lake and Sebring spent
a couple of hours in jail, Attor
