General de Greer, Belgian minister of defenc" says that within four to .six years Russia will have enough hydrogen bombs to blast U.H.A. pretty well off the face of the earth. He shows that a single hydrogen bomb could destioy his entire country. If that is true, a single bomb could nlso destroy Britain. Yet Sir Wins' , r.

I'hone till HELP TO Morthwest Highway Needed i Y HEN is the B.C. government going to show Vv more interest in opening up the great north-.vest area of this province? Although there is plenty of evidence that Am-3j'icans would do their part in any scheme which would help to provide highway communications for southeastern Alaska, this province, which has possibly more stake in the matter, remains completely dumb about it. Speaking on the subject recently, A. F. Ghiglione, head of the Alaska Road Commission, explained that it was disheartening to have money for road surveys into Canada and then, because of a lessening interest on the part of Canada in connecting roads, to find it unsound to initiate the detailed surveys that had been planned. In the name vein, the Daily Alaska Empire of Juneau urged Alaskan Chambers of Commerce to take up the subject with the Associated Hoards of Trade of Central B.C. "They should press for a Canadian survey of the old 'A route proposed originally by Donald McDonald, the father of international highway planning, from Alaska through Canada to the States," the paper said. "This plan would continue 'the present highway from Atlin to Hazelton, B.C., with connecting branches to the principal towns of southeast Alaska . . . But it would be useless to do :he work on our side of the boundary until it is jus-:ified by Canadian agreement tn do similar work n B.C." ' Routes from Alaska into this province already urveyed are up the Taku, Stikine and Unuk rivers, ind from Skagway to CarcroSs." This province's stake in' any such undertaking vould be principally to provide overland access to he present and future settlements of northern B.C. These are certain to increase in both size and num-ier. But under the conditions which exist now, hey will be isolated f rom the rest of the province. A secondary, but nevertheless important, con-n'deration is the tourist and economic value of such i highway to the province as a whole. Possibly the Tederal government could be persuaded to take part m the basis of the defence purposes that would be served by a westerly route to Alaska. The subject is almost' certain to come in for thorough discussion in September when the Associated Boards of Trade of Central B.C. and Southeast Alaska hold their annual convention, which this year is scheduled for Ketchikan. It is hoped that, if the provincial government is not too busy pouring money into the PGE, it can be prompted to take the action which already is so long overdue.

Blackett, me atomic expert, nas wruien i a sensational article ln theLon- don New Statesman and Na- tion, for February 13. He argues that as each of the super-powers, U.S.A. and RussU. have now, or soon will have, enough H-bombs to blast each other clean off the map, neither can afford to drop a .single ; bomb. j He reasons something like 'this: Suppose it takfs on hun-I died hydrogen bombs,' dropped I on U.8 A., to knock out that ! country. Then It gives the U.S.A. ! no real advantage to have a thousand or ten thousand such Ibumbs for the effective nuni- her to knock out either Russia or U.S. ts the one hundred, i Blackett seems to conclude ) that us both sides have the power to destroy the other, neither will ver daj-e to- drop, H-baoibs;. Ho wonderful,? sJni )a,' u might say. But another part ol the Professor's reasoning U far from assuring. He seems to fig- i ure that, as the A-bombs and j H-bombs have cancelled each i oiner out, mat tne Dig power rivalry will be carried on, by 0ld fashioned weapons. In other words. B ackett seems to con tludp that we could have u ! whole series of little ' struggles, J such as Korea, without a world 1 conflict. j That seems to me the kind of reasoning that Is a short cut to world suicide. We can't have more "little" wars without setting the match to the fuse which vUI finally set off the third woild. war.
