Ho concluded his testimony with these grim words: "War now can destroy not merely CHICS OUt WHUIjE hahuns," THE menace of the atom bomb x can't be laughed off. If, in our -preoccupation witn the pleasant task of getting buck to what we regard as a NORMAL world, we r OKGkT- It momentar ily, we will be brought up sooner or later wlUi a rudo JOLT. With the advent of the atom bomb, we walked through a door into a NEW world. If we have the good sense, the tolerance and the forbearance to use atomic energy CONSTRUCTIVE jl x it win be a brave ana wonderful new world. If we are so dumb and sense less and so HIDEOUSLY IN TOLERANT as to fall to take the steps that will insure the exclusive use of atomic energy, for PEACE insead of WAR, the consequence can be terrible beyond the present power of the human imagination to grasp.
