Indicating the confusion among the lay public and some doctors over what defects are hereditary, Dr. Kemp lists an amazing variety of conditions on which "genetic counseling"-at least some of it leading to sterilization-has been given. Among them are many, such as harelip, clubfoot and similar malformations, which may be congenital (in that a child has them at birth) but which are not, so far as is known, the result of defective genes, and therefore are not predetermined at conception. They are caused by events, still unknown, occurring during life in the womb, and some of them...
...problems of disarmament cannot, of course, be solved at once. The government must make definite plans to meet the unemployment caused by a lessening in defense contracts. Similar solutions, probably through a pooling of economic resources, will have to be devised by the countries of Western Europe. The question of research into the peaceful use of atomic energy, a corollary to the economic problems, cannot be permanently separated from the disarmament talks. The nations which have already developed research facilities will insist on continuing their work, probably under international control...
Another count against him involves a similar principle, although not in the eyes of the review board majority, which apparently identifies moral character with telling the whole truth to the security officer. It was asserted, and confirmed by the all too innocent scientist, that he maintained relations with Communists and ex-Communists, specifically with his brother, whom he visited more than once a year.

Since the British announced their new policy, other westerners have revealed similar designs in their own planning. Adenauer wants a similar program for Germany, and our own military prospects involve a possible two and one-half million manpower cut in the next four years. At the same time, this new emphasis on the deterrent power of nuclear weapons has thrown new considerations into schemes for H-bomb test control, disarmament, and defense research. And by this reorganization, Britain has admittedly placed her final trust in American manpower and nuclear weapons...
