Call For Full Confidence

LONDON, NOV, 23. "THE ATOM BOMB MAY NOT BE THE LAST WORD IN DESTRUCTIVENESS, AND UNLESS THE NATIONS ESTABLISH SUCH MUTUAL CONFIDENCE THAT WAR IS UNTHINKABLE. FULL-SCALE ATOMIC WAR- FARE WILL RESULT IN THE DESTRUCTION F GREAT CITIES. THE DEATHS OF MILLIONS AND THE SETTING BACK OF CIVILISATION TO AN UN- IMAGINABLE EXTENT."

THIS SOLEMN WARNING WAS GIVEN LAST NIGHT BY THE PRIME MINISTER, MR. C. R. ATTLEE IN A SPEECH OPENING THE DEBATE ON FOREIGN A”. FAIRS IN THE HOUSE OF COMMONS IN WHICH HE DISCLOSED THAT THE WASHINGTON ATOM TALKS WERE HELD AT HIS INITIATIVE.

Mr. Attlee warned that no system of safeguards could of itself control production atomic weapons by an aggressor nation and called for full ciprocity between nations in the exchange of future yet untold refentific discoveries that may be used for warfare,
