A group of educators and scientists argues that the United Nations must oversee atomic energy to prevent an arms race. They urge sharing research with a world body, promoting international cooperation, and educating for world mindedness to avoid catastrophe.
Professor Jacques Barzun contends the atomic bomb, while understood as terrifying, does not resolve mankind s problem of power. He warns that a disordered world will rely on political organization, industrial war, and science, urging thoughtful peace planning over panic. The piece weighs whether imagination will yield practical paths or fear will prevail.
A Truman Attlee King statement urges immediate demonstration that inspection of atomic research is technically feasible. The aim is to dispel suspicion and build international confidence before national programs crystallize, prioritizing military use and internationalizing such uses under the United Nations. Scientists from three powers should outline an inspection program before forming the UN commission on atomic energy.
Reverend Mr. Robert G. Andrus argues the atom bomb is a threat to society yet may drive the world toward a single government as the only alternative to chaos. He suggests placing control in the United Nations as a step forward.
Professor Raymond and colleagues debate the bomb as a political moral issue not an engineering puzzle. They warn against revealing technical know how and urge international action through the UNO to prevent atomic warfare, favoring decentralization and underground protection only as limited measures.
Professor Sargent notes the public ignores broad war talks and faces fear of future bombfalls. He argues leaders and social scientists know war causes and prevention plans yet fail to mobilize the masses. The current climate makes people anxious about living away from industrial centers as wars loom.
Reverend Daly argues no religious moral code can control atomic power. only political solutions via a revamped UNO or world government can restrain it. He warns against aggressive A bomb posture while know how becomes common knowledge. Dr McGuire supports Truman Attlee on shared trust and information pooling.
Rabbi Tsidor B. Hoffman argues for sharing scientific knowledge internationally to demonstrate faith in the United Nations Organization. He asserts mutual confidence among nations can avert mankind’s supreme curse, a world war.
Dr. Marjorie D. Coogan argues that the atomic bomb requires a world government and endorses the Truman Attlee plan as a step toward international control. She warns that political and moral progress must match rapid scientific advances and calls for global federation and neighborly cooperation.
Reverend J Edward Dirks argues the atomic bomb is an international product and must be controlled by all nations. He warns against political slogans and calls for a deep moral reflection on energy power amid global unrest and suspicion.
Professor Henry A Boorse argues that rapid duplication by rival powers and a lack of defense against the atomic bomb necessitate a world authority. He urges immediate steps to establish global control and halt existing plants producing concentrated fissionable material as proof of good faith.
Professor Thomas P. Peardon expresses pessimism about the near future yet sees potential for reduced tension if economic prosperity rises. He credits the Truman Attlee King proposals as constructive and urges cooperation, opposing the May Johnson Bill for its regimentation of free inquiry.
