"To conclude, mercifully, there is lime and hope if we combine pa lienee and courage All deterrents will improve and gain authority during the next 10 years By that time the deterrent may will reach its acme and reap it final reward The day may dawn when fair play love for one fellow men, respect for justice and freedom, will enable the tormented generation to march forth serene and triumphant from thp hideous epoch in which we have to dwell good one Meanwhile, never flinch, never weary, never despair." More food for thought on the atomic age If all of us lost our earthly (mortal) bodies together, via hydrogen bomb, that would not be the worst thing that could happen lo us If our spirits were destructible, like our birdies, then tearfulness truly could be our lot. One at a time, each of us depart this earthly body, for vanou causes Some in infancy, some as teenagers, some in middle life and Ihe rest in our sunset year.
