CHRISTIANS CALL ANOTHER PASTOR

Speaking on one of the most interesting developments of the modem age, the atomic bomb, Dr. Gerald Wendt told a crowd of Knife and Fork club members in the Moore hotel in Ontario last Friday night that he does not believe this country will engage in an atomic war for sometime, but added that the Russians could have atomic bombs if they want them.

"I don't think jv e will have an atomic war for many years’, said ¡he editorial director of Science Illustrated. The Russians may have an atomic bomb. They could have one if they wanted it. There are no secrets about the bomb that ¡he Russians don't • have. They would be foolish tq attack us un- ,ess they have a lot more bombs ¡han we have. It wtmld take the Russians 10 years to build a plant .ike the one at Hanford, Washington.

’However, the atomic age is some years off. We need an engine to use it as a fuel. Fifty years ago gasoline was useless. We are now m the second revolution developing from gasoline as the result of the airplane, which is dependent on gasoline. The same thing will happen in the atomic age. A small engine can operate a big ship. One pound of atomic energy gives as much power as 2000 tons of coal.
