As for the bomb itself, It is
the feeling of m*ny here that
there is no logical reason for ever
releasing the information. For,
if it is agreed that the atomic
bomb should never be used for
all the answers regarding its
effectiveness on water as well as
land. It is believed that when the
world is made fully aware of just
what the bomb will do, every
nation may realize that another
war would mean world suicide.

As a consequence, the strug
gle between labor and manage
ment has reached a state tanta
mount to civil war, with even
the experts unwilling to predict
the outcome. More and more, it
appears that the final solution
will have to come from govern
ment, since the split between
industry leaders and labor lead
ers seems to have reached an
impasse too complicated to solve
without intervention. It appears
likely, for the first time in many
years, that management is for
once not going to give in and is
going to demand that labor do
a little “giving in’ for a change.
Management apparently intends
to insist that labor unions accept
a lot more responsibility for

As an answer to the housuing
Shortage, the senate banking
committee has asked congress to
pass legislation making it possi
ble for people to build small
homes with a 5 per cent down
payment. The proposed plan is to
guarantee mortgages up to 95
per cent of the appraised value
of small homes and to provide
that mortgages be amortized ov
er a period of 32 years with in-I
terest limited to a maximum of
4 per cent. Under this plan a
man could build a $5,000 home
by making a down payment of
$250 and menthly payments ox
under $20.
