...Riverside Church; Pollster Elmo Roper; National Farmers Union Boss James G. Patton (who runs N.C.S.N.P. material free in N.F.U. publications); Sociologist David (The Lonely Crowd) Riesman; Librettist Oscar (South Pacific) Hammerstein II; and the committee's scientific anchor man, Caltech's busy chemist and busy politician, Dr. Linus Carl Pauling, longtime supporter of Communist-line fronts,* whose ideology was never noticeably shaken by the suppression inside the Soviet Union for years of his own Nobel Prizewinning discovery about the resonance theory of chemical bonds. Among the signers of an earlier nuclear policy committee declaration and still standing foursquare...
This week CBS's Edward R. Murrow devoted an extra-long See It Now, a full 90 minutes, to nuclear-test hazards. Among the scientists crying alarm on the TV screen: Caltech's Nobel Prizewinning Chemist Linus Pauling, who last January presented to the U.N. a stop-the-tests petition signed by 9,235 U.S. and foreign scientists, including three dozen Nobel laureates. Pauling was balanced off against Atomic Energy Commissioner Willard Libby, a distinguished nuclear chemist himself, who declared that "hazards from fallout are limited" and that nuclear tests are needed to lessen the "awful threat...

Just as vehement on the other side is Physical Chemist Linus Pauling of Caltech, who is also a Nobel Prizewinner (1954). "I estimate," says Pauling, "that the bomb tests that have been made so far will ultimately have caused the death of about 1,000,000 people in the world...
