Show ONE WHO KNOWS TALKS ABOUT FUTURE WAR Shout This From the Housetops If we do not make the peace this time, here is what will come to pass.

Within a decade or less they will be ready to visit horror on man in new and almost unimagined forms. The splitting of the atom, already achieved in the laboratory, will release colossal energy to further enhance wholesale annihilation. War will become a gigantic clash of mighty technological monsters, striking from the heart of one nation directly at the heart of another, perhaps half way around the world, with a fnrv and destructiveness that will make all Dast con- flicts including World War II seem trivial by contrast. The aim will be total annihilation. Therefore I say that we simply cannot aford to be lazy or cynical about peace plans if we want to survive if we want our children to survive." ,Et. |
