to the proposed steel and coal strike will man destroy himself by lewis milligan when dr brock chisholm is not debunking santa claus and denouc- ing fairy stories as pern literature for children he is trying to make adults flesh creep with the fairy tales of science and all the horrors yet to be not content with the terrors of atomic bomb and its power to destroy whole cities and their populations in an instant the kindly doctor has gone further he now informs us accord ing to a reuters report from switzerland that the atom bomb is obsolete as a war weapon and he tells a harrowing tale of how the inhabitants of the entire world may be wiped out with seven ounces of a new biological product if such fictitious stories as jack the giant killer the forty thieves and blue beard are bad for child rens nerves what of the effect of this latest scientific thriller upon the nerves of us older people we were already jittery enough with the fear of being starved to death through the depletion of arable lands to say nothing of being blown to bits by the atomic bomb if dr chisholm and his fellow prophets of doom continue to shock us in this way the chances are that we will all become nervous wrecks or die of heart failure before the scientists can complete their demonstrations one war says dr chisholm may kill as many as 90 percent of the worlds people and all that with a few ounces of this terrible mantox it doesnt really matter whether it takes a few ounces or a few tons of the stuff to exter minate us but the ounces make a better story and dr chisholm likes to show what clever fellows these scientists are it never seems to occur to him that they are too devilishly clever and he puts all the blame prospectively upon han whom he likens to the dinosaurs which he says became extinct because they could no longer adapt themselves to the present the dinosaurs however were not responsible for their own extinction they were monstrous reptiles living in tropical swamps and were suddenly overwhelmed by the advent of the ice age being creatures of very low intelligence they had no scientists amongst them and they had no warning or time to adapt themselves to arctic conditions there is no comparison therefore between mankind and the dinosaurs to predict or even suppose that man would be so crazy as to compass his own universal destruction or that as dr chisholm suggests a few fanatical distributors could destroy mankind by biological warfare is fantastic even the most fanatical nations would hesitate to start a war with a biological weapon that would destroy themselves along with the rest of mankind the only thing that kept hitler from using poison gas and germs was the fear or retaliation in kind for which the british had great stores of deadly fumes in readiness the fact there is nothing original about this 1mxg doxg daddv smiling francis van wie of san francisco the marrying ding dong daddy of the car line is married now for the 14th time the former conduc tor completed serving two years in prison for marrying 13 other women without bother ing about the formality of annulment or divorce an nounced another nuptial cere mony coming up latest scare story by dr chisholm except perhaps the small amount of seven ounces of something which he says could destroy the human race if that did actually happen it could be claimed that never were so many beings exter minated by so few ounces of a biological product but there would be no biologists left to claim the credit before the second world war we were warned that if it happened it would destroy civilization and now despite the fact that civiliza tion has not been destroyed dr chisholm declares that only a few more years of present behavior patterns will destroy the human race he says there is only one problem in the competition for survival the survival of man him self and he adds it is of basic importance to the human race that the next generation should not be as our ancestors have been and that it does not have the same values otherwise it will behave in the same manner as we have and destroy the human race that is surely a libel on our ancestors and on ourselves for neither they nor we have entirely ignored human values and deliberately behaved ia a manner to destroy the whole of mankind if wars are more widely destructive it is not clue to our values or behavior but to scientific inventions which it is claimed are responsible for more deaths by accident in time of peace than in war in the past hundred years greater value has been set upoa human life than ever before so much so that the normal period of life has been extended infant mortality has been vastly reduced and the population of the world has been doubled not long ago dr chisholm warned us that the world was getting overcrowded and that we would all starve to death if we didnt change our pattern of behavior in wasting the resources of the soil he got that idea from several books but it is an old scare story which originated over a hundred years ago with malthus who claimed that war disease and poverty were necessary to keep the world from becoming overcrowded so it would appear that if any thing we have been behaving too well for our own survival a worm is incapable of feeling pain says a naturalist is it possible that a worm being impaled on a fish hook is wiggling with ecstasy a vacuum cleaner
