be an era “substantial enough"
to make possible a “real test” of
Moscow’s good faith in the matter.
Mr. Dulles said he personally
thinks “the scope of the initial
test is less impprtant than the fact
of making an initial start.” How
ever, such a start would have to
make possible a reasonable
check on the principles of aerial
and ground inspection.
A Congressional subcommittee
has recently heard some startling
testimony regarding the. devas
tating effects of nuclear weapons.
One witness said that by 1960
Russia would have the capability
of dropping 250 superbombs on
this country and that these could
cause 82 million deaths, half of
them from radioactive fallout.
There is currently conflicting
testimony regarding the present
and imminent danger of radio
active fallout. A big fear, how
ever, is that if and when the
fallout should become dangerous
it would then be too late to do
anything about it.
In all of this discusion it is
interesting to recall that His
Holiness Pope Pius XII saw the
j problems arising from atom-split -
j ting as far back as 1941. The
{potential of this achievement for
| good or evil did not burst upon
j the consciousnes of the world
! until the first atom bomb was
{dropped on Hiroshima on August
6, 1945.
Speaking to the Pontifical
Academy of Sciences on Novem
ber 30, 1941 the. Holy Father spoke
first on the “investigation of this
great infinitude” (astronomical
observations) and then on the
“examination of microscopic in
finitude” (the mysteries hidden
in the atom). On that occasion,
the Holy Father said scientists
used to consider the atom the
smallest particle of entirely homo
geneous matter. However, he
added, modern physics had come
to see it as a “microcosm,” a small
world of various activities and
energies.
The Pope took occasion to point
out that God alone is “unchanging
and eternal.”
In 1943, His Holiness spoke of
the astonishing progress achieved
in the nuclear field and exhorted
that these findings be used for
peace.
All in all, the Pope has spoken
about a dozen times since 1941 on
the moral and physical aspects of
nuclear fission. In his famous
Christmas message of 1955 ha
stressed three points: the necessi
ty of international agreement sim
ultaneously putting an end to nu
clear weapons tests; the necessity
of renouncing the use of nuclear
arms, and the necessity on an
effective system for the enforce
ment of these agreements.
All these points are to the fore
in the current talks about dis
armament. The third point, en
forcement, involves the estab
lishment of areas of inspection, *
project on which this country
is now so anxious to make a
start.
