AUGUST 5. 1H1 Sugar And Rental Controls Discussing the remnants of Canada's dying control organization, The Letter-Review of Fort Erie says that as fast as the old staff of the War- time Prices and Trade Board gets aut, new ap- pointments are being made, of people who then oppose further decontrol, for quite obvious rea- sons of their own advantage. There never was :i "vested interest" as strong as a bureaucracy.

Atomic Research The bcneficent side of atomic ‘research, in contrast to its catastrophic implications, is em- phasized in the announcement of a Medical Board of review which has been set up by the United States Alomic Energy Commission. This board has recommended that scientists be immediately recruited whose business it will be to study the medical implications of the dis- covery. "The need tor medical and biological research an the various effects of radioactive substances is both urgent and extensive" states the Report. "It is urgent because of the extra- ordinary danger of exposing living creatures to radioactivity. lt is urgent fecauso affective meo- suros (in the military sense) are not yet known." It is suggested public health personnel should be givsrrfnppotftlnltiss to learn methods of protect- ing industrial omploysos and civilian population against irradiated gum and dust. As for Army -4 Navy Illlillaal QIIIUDIIII ilio Report remarks that it is "imperative" that they obtain instruc- tion in the protection of troops and ships from the effect of atomic weapons. The Report argues further that there is an obligation to share knowledge with the rest of the scientific world wherever security considera- tions permit. ln medical research isotopes or tracers derived as a by-product of atomic energy have proven invaluable, and the report suggests that "steps be taken to make isotopes available to foreign investigators." Scientific knowledge should bedisseminated as promptly as possible in scientific journals. At present the United States Atomic Com- mission has four divisions: research, engineering production and military appzication. lt is high- ly probable that following this report a fifth, medical research, will be set up. — EDITORIAL NOTES - Seeing that a stringent oath of secrecy is required of all Dominion civil servants, the Navy is going to lose its distinction of being "the sil- cnt service." w w iv 1r Camp life is drawing to a close. lt has been a glorious season, and never have so many boys and girls been ablc to enjoy life under can- vas as this summer. x v ~ii The Tennis Tournament has been an all- round success, thanks to a combination of good management and good weather.

Each bomb was more powerful than 20,- 000 tons of T.N.T., and had more than 2,000 times the blast power of the largest bomb ever used in warfare. n» i» ~1- a It is better we should have no illusion regard- ing our relationship with U. S. A. The Arch- bishop of York, Dr. Cyrii Garbctt, declares: "Am- erica is only likely to come to our help if she is convinced that she shrill survive as a great pow- er-and at present she is very doubtful about this." Writing in his diocesan leaflet, the Arch- bishop continues: "We must not deceive our- selves by wishful thinking. ln that great coun- try, there are large numbers of people who are "riendly to Great Britain and anxious to help us, but there are also many who dislike us and wish to see us weakened. Moreover, the political and economic policy of the United States is largely determined by hard-headed men of business who are not prepared out of mere sentiment to throw good money after baJ." ' Alas, there is now only wishful thinking in the minds of informed British people over the economic situation there. The Spectator, Lon- don, one of the most optimistic ol the British weeklies, says it is regrettable that more im- mediate use could not have been made of the Economic Commission for Europe which met at Geneva, and at which Canada was represented, but the speech made by the Russian delegate at its opening session showed how impossible it would have been to have had the European plan discussed by a body several of whose members had rejected it. "As things are the hope Mnl Marshall has inspired must be sot against ths sombre reflection of our own economic candl- tion inspires. On balance the hope decisively outwsiahs the alooin." |‘ Notes By The Way j According to World Report, to offset. dependent-e upon n costly and uncertain supply of U.
