"For example, why should wo bo concerned about universal military tramimi if war in the future will be nothing but destruction and will not involve battles between opposing armies? "One thing appears certain, and that Is we must work toward a binding international agree ment on the development and uso of atomic energy. As we know, from past experience, agreements between nations are not generally worth much over a period of time, but In thu present situation, an agreement represents the only constructive possibility." Today's Roundup News Behind The News .FT. By PAUL MALLON '.'VMMiaaaf P. Br MALCOLM EPLEY WRITING in tha current issue of a pro fessional journalism magazine. Palmer Hoyt, publisher of the Oregonlan, asserts that the atomic age requires mat a "new rule book must be writ ten for the conduct of inter national peace." Mr. Hoyt, who spent a year as director of the domestic branch of OWI, believes that the paramount need . in the new age of compulsory under standingcompulsory because anything but understanding may mean disaster to civiliza tion is the "free flow of news American style." EPLEY "There is only one way this mutual under standing (between nations) can come about, it must spring from a firm and practical base the free flow of news and information the world-wide freedom of the press," said Hoyt. "When I say press, I mean not only the news papers, but news services, radio, communica tions, and the free and untrammeled flow of magazines and motion pictures." The American press, regardless of whatever shortcomings it may have, has done a great job in demonstrating the real meaning of "free flow of information." It has established an ideal and a concept which may well be the pattern for world-wide press freedom. Not every segment of the American press lives up to that ideal all the time. Every part of the press probably falls short of it some of the time. But the principles are well established and are worthy of universal adoption. It can become it vastly significant American contribution to ihe world-wide understanding that must eventu ally banish the terrible dangers that trouble thinking men everywhere. ! . Ellsworth On Atomic A S for the atomic bomb, which has delivered an impact to world-thinking as powerful as the awful blow it dealt two Japanese .cities, we have today copy of the Washington letter ' of Harris Ellsworth, Oregon congressman, tell ing how the bomb has had official Washington in a state- of panic for the last few weeks. Here is Mr.: Ellsworth's interesting report: . "Numerous conferences, both on and off the . record, have been held by government officials and members of congress with scientists who helped develop the atomic bomb. One senator told me that, after spending two hours in a. private session with one of the scientists, if only ten per cent of what the scientist told him yras true, the possibilities of the bomb as a' Weapon of destruction were almost too horrible to contemplate. ( "The Question of whether or not we should ieep secret the information we have developed is pretty much flattened out by the realization that most of the secret is already in the posses sion of several other, important powers, and it seems to be the concensus of opinion of those on the inside that any country could develop the bomb in less than eighteen months. We must assume, therefore, that other coun- ; tries will have atomic bombs as part of their military equipment before so very long, just as they all have ample supplies of poison gas. ; "Although gas was available as a weapon to ell of the armies engaged in World War H, it Vas not used. They were afraid to use it partly because of retaliation, and partly be cause defense against gas is reasonably ade fluate. I "There is a vast difference, however, between the effectiveness of the atomic bomb and poison gas. It is possible to place and explode atomic bombs in any country, so as to instantaneously wipe out. not only a high percentage of its . Population, but Its entire effective ability to make war or defend itself. There could be no defense against an attack of that kind. I "Whether or not our scientists can develop a means for neutralizing the bomb as a military Weapon remains to be seen. Obviously, the best answer to the whole problem would be the development of some device which would de lect and explode atom bombs while they are under construction, or at least while they are In storage. If, in this manner, the creation of atomic bombs would become so dangerous that ho country would dare attempt to make them) ihe world might be rid of the menace. Although this is purely wishful thinking at the moment, nevertheless it seems to be the only avenue toward saving civilization from the destructive hess of this new force. J ... I "Not only have we been panicked here by the full realization of what can be done with the By PAUL MALLON A ASHINGTON, Nov. 7 The Bttruch letter VV to congressmen lifted the veil about a foot on the whole inner picture, Without mentioning the labor-management conference, the Attlee visit, the New York and Detroit elections or any other matter specmeul ly this now unattached elder advisor of the nation penetrated these and all other current economic arguments filling the papers with at least one fresh ray of light. His flashlight beamed on the problem of pro duction as the root of all economic evil. Delay and curtailment of it by strikes and otherwise boosts inflation, he said (as it docs, because slack production makes more critical the short age of goods, which in turn causes higher prices, which must continue until production satisfies demand.) The current brakes upon production also should make us wary of giving away what goods we have to foreign nations, especially those like England, Czechoslovakia, France and Russia (he mentioned these specifically in his meagerly reported letter) because by giving- away, we reduce what production we have available to fight inflation. a a Got Off Beam HE got off his own beam on two other points, it seems to me. He said tax reduction also threatens inflation, without recognizing that a reduction in the vast Truman spending budgets projected publicly for the next 20 months, is the first logical way to curtail the government fiscal threat. A spending reduction in an inflationary period like this is certainly more important than the meager tax reduction which continues war levies at nearly 90 per cent of war levels. Also he lit once upon a rubbish argument when he worried about our farm and mineral resources along with Interior Secretary Ickes, who is nearly always bad company for a seeker of objective economic truth. With all these nations owing us money, we should be able to stock up on deficient minerals (if the administration would devote itself to this;) and most people are bragging about the ability of Agriculture ' Secretary Anderson to get the farm production straightened out from its war mess next year. -Mr. Baruch's gleaming eye could have gone further and the veil could have gone higher. Fundamentally, honestly and basically, what are the tap-root causes of the condition we are in? There is but one. The world is being pressured into political economics, domestically and internationally. Here especially we are striving to do the right thing politically but not the right thing econ omically. " In international affairs, some crusaders want us to give things away for political reasons.' Mr. Attlee is coming over to urge us, according to his inspired press, to give away the atomic bomb. . a a Attlee Wants Money IN my well advised opinion, Mr. Attlee is not much interested in the atomic bomb, but primarily in getting the money, delayed, from us anything up to or' over $5,000,000,000 to set his financial house in order so his socialist party can buy industries for his own purely political purposes. He has never made out an economic case of government need of these . industries (see past columns) for any other than his purpose to j prove socialism, xze uas presented us wiin no prospectus of reconstruction for Britain show ing how she could use our money to make more business for us or her to expand pro duction. He has not offered his people any sincerely conceived production plan along these lines. Indeed, he does not think along these lines, but on socialist political lines. What this poor sick world needs is to get away from politics and back upon the beam of realism in economics. By throwing away the atom bomb or money in bad loans for political purposes, we can destroy the world; (A) By giving more people the atomic means of destroying it, and (B) by whirling ourselves up through politics into an inflation which will destroy us as a major power,, make us bank rupts like them, with complete ruination of our force for good and for peace in the world. Every nation recognizes today we are the remaining major influence for good which does exist in the world. We must maintain our selves in order to be able to use that influence. (I will have more on this tomorrow, with the domestic angle of the subject to complete the picture.) SIDE GLANCES Jit, . ax i ?!i-a-'e a a -kt W! t' It, S-7 & ct coHtiamTHnarnvict, c T.

GAL ORE TONITE Cfll-ORE BTAVCRn S3 MIOHWAY 47 SOUTH There is much encouragement for peace and international co operation to be found in Rus sian Foreign Minister Molotov's speecn mark ing the 28th anniversary of the red revolution. G e neralissi- mo Stalin did not address his people on this Dig day as had been ex pected, a 1 - though he was reported to be in Moscow and looking brown and fit after his vacation in the Black sea area. However, Molotov did a work manlike and constructive- Job which seems likely to increase his stature Both at home and abroad. The foreign minister offered criticism of some allied policies in firm though moderate lan guage, but the average person probably will find the high light in his call for internation al collaboration. One likes to look on this as the keynote of his address, especially in view of the sharp differences . which have arisen among the Big Three in recent weeks. The important point about collaboration is that it isn't a one-man thing Just as it takes two or more to make a fight, so it takes two or more for collabo ration and that's just as true of nations as it is of individuals. So it's a good sign to see the term collaboration crop up in these dire days, and here is what Molotov says about it: . "Joint Efforts" "Only by the joint efforts of the three powers (Russia, Britain and America) who carried the burden of tho war can we sccuro the victories of the democratic countries over fascism. Only such collaboration can promote success in tiic work of the new international organization for lasting peace. "Expressions of good inten tions are not sufficient for this. Such intentions must be proved in ability to carry out this type of collaboration in the interests of all the peace-loving states." Then Molotov offers this pledge: "The Soviet Union has been and will continue to be a re liable bulwark in the' defonsu of peace and the security of the peoples, and is ready to provo this, not in words but In deeds. The atomic bomb Is, of course, a bone of very considerable con tcntion and Moscow is insisting on knowing all the facts. MolO' tov declared there should be "no secrecy" about the bomb. He added that atomic energy mustn't be. used "for games of power In foreign policy," which means that a nation possessing the whercwitital to produce the atomic bomb mustn't use this advantage for the coercion of any other country. Undoubtedly the atomic bomb presents a problem which will have to be ironed out in the Interest of International rein tions. President Truman, Primo Minister Mackenzie King of Canada and British Prime Min ister Attlee are to discuss atomic energy 'at their ' forthcoming meeting in Washington. Presu mubly they will consider the in ternational policy with respect to the bomb, and after they have agreed there will bo a con ference with other nations.
