Atomic Energy Development Big
Issue in Presidential Campaign
BT A. ROBEHT SMITH
Mail Tribun, Correspondent
Washington Atomic energy
development, for the first time
in American history, has be
come a major
political issue
in a president
ial campaign
this fall with
the Republic
ans and Demo
crats at odds
over atomic
policy.
This is quite
a. Robt. smiLb aside from
whether H-bomb tests should be
discontinued, as advocated by
Adlai Stevenson, or carried for
ward as endorsed by President
Eisenhower and his adminstra
tion. The H-bomb issue is basically
military question with inter
national implications, whereas
the atomic energy question is
one of domestic prominence, al
though it too has International
aspects.
The atomic energy issue has
implications for the Pacific
Northwest because one of its
chief uses is in development of
electric power. Congress this
past session narrowly defeated
a bill for construction of a scries
of atomic power reactors, one of
them at the Hanford Works,
Richland, Wash.
How the two parties differ
on the atomic energy issue is
outlined by Harry R. Stringer,
editor of Washington Atomic
Energy Report, an independent
weekly publication. He said:
Emphasis Would Shift
"If the Republicans win, there
will be no fundamental change
in the present policy, but there
will be a shift in emphasis. Less
will be heard about atomic pow
er and its dramatic promise of
making electricity so cheap that
it will not pay to meter it (a
prospect held out by Lewis L.
Strauss, chairman of the Atomic
Energy Commission.)
"More will be heard about
nuclear production for ships and
aircraft, and even vehicles and
. the opportunities it offers for
peacetime applications. More
will be heard about the exploits
of the atom in industry, agri
culture and medicine; how it
may bring revolutionary changes
in the preservation and packag
ing of foods, and the imperative
necessity of gearing up our ed
ucational system for the tre
mendous job of producing the
specialists that will be required
for the atomic age.
"The foreign development pol-
ciy will continue as it is with
possibly more emphasis on hem
ispheric plans for the utilization
of the atom. Beyond de-emhpa-sizing
it, there will be little
change in the power develop
ment program. The Atomic
Energy Commission will con
tinue to experiment with the
pilot plants on which it is now
working, adding new concepts
that display promise. Industry
will be encouraged in building
power plants, but prudence will
be the watchword."
Demos Would Chang It
"If the Democrats win, there
will be radical changes made
in the policy and conduct of the
peacetime program. The fund
amental policy will underscore
power development. A 'crash
program' of prototype reactor
construction as proposed in the
Gore-Holifield bills, which were
defeated in last session of Con
gress, will be undertaken.
"A virgorous program of de
velopment will be initiated
abroad. The Democrats do not
intend to wait until a vague
time in the future when this
country attains technological
superiority in building reactors.
They insist that this policy now
in effect is seriously impairing
American prestige in world
atomic affairs and is vitiating
the whole atoms-for-peace pro
gram.
"The atomic energy act will
be revamped. Chairman Clinton
Anderson (D-N.Mex.) of the
Joint Committee on Atomic
Energy is now preparing a bill
to reorganize the AEC to separ
ate the commission's research.
development and production ac
tivities from its licensing and
regulatory functions."
"Should the status quo a
Republican administration and
a Democratic Congress 1 be
maintained, the atom doubtless
ly will be become more deeply
enmeshed in politics."

i I less Food
Being Developed
Washington U.P.) Science is
coming up with another big
break for American housewives
food that will keep for weeks
without spoiling.
Experts reported today they
now have evidence that poultry,
fish, ham, beef, sausage, lobster
and many other perishable foods
can be kept fresh for long per
iods with antibiotics. The drugs
kill bacteria which cause most
food spoilage.
The scientists said use of the
drugs will mean far less waste
one out of every four pounds of
food now goes into the garbage
can. It also may mean fewer
stomach upsets and a significant
increase in the world's food sup
plies. The optimistic reports were
made at the final session of the
Food and Drug Administration's
fourth annual symposium on
anti-biotics. Several hundred ex
perts from the United States and
nine other countries have taken
part.
NOT ON LIST
Nantucket, Mass. (U.R) Is
land residents here, rather proud
of their whaling and Revolu
tionary forebears, are wearing
red faces these days. A Univer
sity of Massachusetts historian
recently revealed that only one
of 19 persons listed on a DAR
chapter plaque actually served
in the Revolutionary War.
On the political front, Tom
Dewey describes Adlai Steven
son's proposal to quit experi
menting with H-bombs as "an
invitation to national suicide."
Vice President Nixon de
scribes Stevenson himself as "in
credibly naive."
T CAN'T agree completely with
either of them.
Mr. Stevenson isn't "inviting
national suicide" because,
among other things, he won't
put a stop to H-bomb experimen
tation and testing if he becomes
President. Nor is he "incredibly
naive."
He is just playing politics.
And
I'd say
VERY SHREWD politics.

WRONG BLOCK
St. Louis (U.R) Two drag
racers with roaring motors and
squealing tires picked the wrong
neighborhood to display their
accomplishments. They were
racing in the 5100 block of West

president of the board of police
commissioners.

Washington (U.R) The Dem
ocratic National committee an
nounced Thursday that former
President Truman will make a
three-day swing to the West

His schedule: Oct. 24, speech
at Democratic rally at Salt Lake

Mr. Truman was scheduled to
arrive here today for a speech
Friday night to a Democratic "17
days to victory" dinner.
EVERYBODY in the world is
horrified by the A and H
bombs. Everybody would love
to have them all sunk in the sea
and forgotten. But alL realists
know it can't be done. We have
to take life as it comes.
Gunpowder was indescribably
horrible when it came into war
fare. It put an end to the ar
mored knight and the fortified
castle. It sounded the knell for
the archers who had been domi
nant in warfare. It substituted
tearing and shattering wounds
for the clean wounds made by
sword and spear and arrow.
It shook the world.
But it had to be accepted.
ALL fuzzy -minded idealists
have the idea that we can
look the other way and ignore
these AWFUL weapons.
We can't. Any nation that had
abjured gunpowder would have
become a SUBJECT nation be
cause there would have been
some nation that wouldn't have
abjured it and by its resulting
superiority m gunpowder weap
ons it would have been able to
conquer the world.
The same rule holds good for
nuclear weapons.

FREE DANCE ANALYSIS.
MR. STEVENSON knows all
this, because he possesses a
keen and well-trained mind.
But
He has convinced himself that
large numbers of people will
shut their eyes to realities and
vote for him ON PURE EMO
TION because of this glittering
and chimerical hope he has
raised that if elected President
he will put a stop to H-bomb ex
perimentation and testing.
He figures, as so many poli
ticians before him have, that
what you say to get elected
doesn't matter. That the end jus
tifies the means-.-That after you
are ELECTED you can do as you
please.
TF YOU will analyze his utter-
ances carefully, you will note
that all he says is that his first
act after he is elected will be to
WORK FOR the end of the
H-bomb.
Well, President Eisenhower
has been working steadily to
ward that end. The trouble is
that the Russians won't play.
And the Russian rulers plan def
initely to conquer the world for
communism.
President Eisenhower knows
we can't risk our whole future
by letting the Russians gain su
periority in the skills of nuclear
warfare.
And
He is HONEST enough not to
dangle before ur eyes in elec
tion years any glittering prom
ises that he will do away with
the H-bomb.
Cubans Youths
Invade Island
Havana U.R) The British
Embassy labeled today as "irre
sponsible" two bands of Cuban
youths who carried out the
bloodless "invasions" of Britain's
tiny Key Sal Islet 25 miles off
Cuba.
The invaders met with no re- i
sistance from the two Britons
found on the 50-square mile
islet as they lowered the Union
Jack and ran up the flag of Cuba
Thursday.
The Cuban government admit
ted it was informed of the inci-
i dent but disclaimed any connec
tion with it. A statement issued
by Foreign Minister Andres Do
mingo Morales Del Castillo said
the youths "acted on their own
initiative."
