KM
Eleven years ago this picture electrified the world. It made
crystal clear the meaning o£ total war.
But the A-bombs that dropped o n Hiroshima and Naga­
saki were pigmies in contrast to the giants of today—H-bombs
capable of destroying entire cities at a single bloiv.
These weapons no longer are a secret of our military arsen­
al. Communist Russia's nuclear scientists are working around
the clock to outstrip us i n development of ever bigger and more
terrorizing bombs.
Winston Churchill recognized the R e d threat to world
peace when he declared:
"America's possession of the hydrogen
bomb is our greatest deterrent against war."
As inconceivable as it may seem, A dial Stevenson hps told
the American fymfrlr that he will nhandnn H-bomb tests by the
United States if he is elected president. He does not tell vs how
he would stop Red Russia from building mightier bombs than
we now possess.
/
The one man who understands the horrors of the H-bomh
and what its continued development means to world peace is
Dwight D. Eisenhower.
As General Dwight D. Eisenhower, he led the greatest co­
alition ajmy in history to victory.
As President Dwight D. Eisenhower, he was the first to
summon all of the nations of the world to cooperate for peace­
ful utilization of atomic energy. His bold leadership at the
summit conference at Geneva in 1953, when he brought i o n h
his "open skies" proposal and his atoms-foi-peace plan before
the U.N. later the same year, still has the Communist n.itinns
confounded.
Dvwghi D. Eisenhower is not a theonzer. He is a practical
man, v»ho knows the terrors ot war and the cost of maintaining
the peace. His philosophy is best summed up in his own words,
as spoken to the people of London on June 12, 1945:
"My most cherished hope is that . . . neither my country nor yours need ever again summon its sons and
daughters from their peaceful pursuits to face the tragedies of battle. But —a faet important for both of us to
remember — neither London nor Abilene, sisters under the skin, will sell her birthright for phytical safety, her
liberty for mere existence."
