PAGE 'EIGTI'r Talk About (Continued from page four) the answer is our top secret and• will remain so, if no other Klaus Fuchs is in on the answer. What could such a "hell" bomb do in comparison to an atomic explosion? The radius of destruc tiveness by the blast of a bomb with a thousand times the energy of the A-bomb will be ten miles, ten times the radius in the Hiro shima blast. The total area of de struction will be 314 square miles, and there is nothing but cost to stop the manufacture of a bomb a million times the size of the Hiroshima bomb. Albert Einstein has been quoted as pointing out that if the bomb becomes a reality, "radioactive poisoning of the atmosphere, and hence annihilation of any life on earth, has been brought within the range of technical possibili ties." And yet the bomb had to be built if for no other reason than to eliminate the possibility of some mad-man arising with a claim that he had developed it and that unless the rest of the world should bow, he would release it's destructiveness. William Laurence, science ex pert of the New York Times, and historian of the Oak Ridge pro ject during the war sums up the danger of the hydrogen bomb as the greatest threat to the survival of the human race since the Black Death, but then he recalls a din ner conversation recorded in 1869. The great chemist Pierre Bet thelot predicted that by 1969 "man would be able, at will, to moderate, extinguish, and light up the sun as if it were a gas lamp." (This almost has come true.) Claude Bernard, the great est Physiologist of the day, saw a future in which "man would be so completely the master of organic law that he would create life (artificially) in competition with God." To which the editor of the paper appended the following note: "To all of this we raised no objection. But we have the , feeling that when this time comes to science. God with His white beard will come down to earth. swinging a bunch of keys. and will say to humanity, the way they say at five o'clock at the salon: 'Closing time, gentle. men!'
