...great enemy of mankind today is nuclear power. Our finger is on the trigger all the time. The possibilities of destruction are measureless," the Governor asserted. "In the battle of nuclear power and man, nuclear energy has the upper hand." Nationalism is a danger because it is the means by which the nuclear power may be triggered, he added...
...loyalty oath" were merely ineffective, a growing list of major colleges--including Bryn Mawr, Harvard, Haverford, Princeton, Sarah Lawrence, Swarthmore and Yale--would not have protested so strongly. The real danger is that the required affidavit constitutes an inquiry into vaguely defined associations and beliefs.

The danger, it would seem, lies in the possibility that if this compromise measure were adopted it would be that much harder to do away with nuclear testing altogether. It is to be hoped that Eisenhower's proposal will prove not only a much-needed first step, but a prologue to total...
