AFTER THE ATOMIC BOBM One cannot look at the photographs of utter destruction which the atomic bomb left at Hiroshima without realizing that, truly, we have entered an era from which there can be no retreat. That a single bomb, said to weigh only 400 pounds, could have caused such a ghastly result is inconceivable to the average man. Yet, there is the evidence: Piles of rubble as far as the eye can see, withered trees, the scorched ground. One correspondent said that all the choice of extinction or working together for a genuine and lasting peace. In the past, nations have not gotten along because some did not want to. They saw, or thought they saw, profit in war. If all are forced to live in peace, the time should come when all will want to live in peace. Then the infinitely greater power of true brotherhood will supplant the force of atomic energy as the keeper of peace on earth. City Council Delves the atomic bomb left at Hiroshima without realizing that, truly, we have entered an era from which there can be no retreat. That a single bomb, said to weigh only 400 pounds, could have caused such a ghastly result is inconceivable to the average man. Yet, there is the evidence: Piles of rubble as far as the eye can see, withered trees, the scorched ground. One correspondent said that all the destruction in Europe and Asia seemed to be concentrated right there in Hiroshima. As long as the United States and Britain hold the secret of this great force there is not likely to be another war—at least not one involving us. But we are warned by scientists that other nations will be able to find the secret for themselves in five years through research. What then? Are the nations to live in dire fear, not only of their neighbors, but of virtually all other nations? The atomic bomb seems certain to exercise even greater power politically than it does physically. In other words, the nations will eventually be faced with the In the past, nations have not gotten along because some did not want to. They saw, or thought they saw, profit in war. If all are forced to live in peace, the time should come when all will want to live in peace. Then the infinitely greater power of true brotherhood will supplant the force of atomic energy as the keeper of peace on earth.

This proposition has already been swatted by the voters of a number of occasions, but as there has always been a very light vote cast, it has never been considered a true expression of the will of the majority. It is hoped that the two thousand registered voters in the city will go to the polls and give a decisive verdict on the question. At a mass meeting last Monday night, a motion requesting the trustees to purchase the Dickel property was carried. The following night the American Legion unanimously endorsed this property as a park site. The trustees have not yet definitely acted, but it is presumed they will purchase this property should the hundred thousand dollar bond issue carry. This tract extends from Cypress to Sycamore and from Lemon to Palm. It is one of the original town plats and consists of 19½ acres, all in oranges. It can be purchased for $70,000, which is considerably less than it would bring by subdividing and selling it for building lots. County Clerk' Backs was in town last week on official business. Mr. Backs says there are about 2000 voters in the county who have not yet registered. The registration closes Saturday night. W. S. C. S. Group Hold Meeting With Mrs. Lois Richmond Anaheim W. S. C.
