New York, Feb. 28.
The famous British scientist-philosopher, Lord Bertrand Russell, today expressed the view that "a mad government" may arise that "could wipe us all out" with a stock of hydrogen bombs.
His warning cume durit a debate with another great Edward Teller of scientist, Amerten, about disarmament and man's chances for survival in wur.
Dr Teiler, however, insisted that "the instruments do not exist to bring about the disaster which Lord Russell is talking
bout,"
But this could not happen in "an open country like ours," he Bald.
Should this happen "within' a few years there will be only une strong military power in world-that IA Russia. the Then, soon, there will be only one way of life and that a the Communist way of life."

we should be led by reason and and not by our fears"
that reason tells him "there is no real, danger that haMAN life on this earth will end."
Looking back, Lord Russell called that in his and Tolles filme "there was a complete-
ly mad government and a great power," and he said "we can have no security whatever that there won't be similar madness at any momIRL," Even a veIJ small power, posscared of mad ness and H-bombs, "could wipe us all out," he said,
Lord Russell termed Dr Teller's optimism "terrifying" and said "my blood ran cold when I heard him minimising the dangers." He predicted the fears mindinised by Dr Teller "will come to be realised."- AP.
LAW OF THE SEA CEREMONY
London, Feb..28.
An illuminated copy of the 800-year-old laws of Olaron, one of the sources of the laws of the son, is to be taken by a British naval vessel to the isle of Oleron, near La Rochello, France, as a gift to the people of the island.
Mr Charles Orr-Ewing, Civil Lord of the Admiralty, told the
House of Commons that the gill was for the 800th anniver- sury of the promulgation of these laws by Eleanor of Aquitaine, later the wife of Henry I of England, which was being cele brated in Oleron in June.
