atomic bomb In the hands of a ruthless enemy,
but the consideration of other problems is
colored by the atomic bomb facts.
"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."

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.

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.)

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.
