Clearly, The First Task Is To Gain

From A Scientific Perspective There Is Some Indication That A Nuclear War Could Deplete The Earth's Ozone Layer Or, Less Likely, Could Bring On A New Ice Age - But There Is No Suggestion That Either The Created Order Or Mankind Would Be Destroyed In The Process.

New Developments In Weapon Systems During The 1950s And Early 1960s Created A Situation That Was Most Dangerous, And Even Conducive To Accidental War.

It May Literally Turn Out That A Hottentot, An Educated And Literate Hottentot It Is True, But One Who Is A Member Of A Relatively Primitive Society, Would Be Able To Make Bombs.

The Widespread Diffusion Of Nuclear Weapons Would Make Many Nations Able, And In Some Cases Also Create The Pressure, To Aggravate An On-going Crisis, Or Even Touch Off A War Between Two Other Powers For Purposes Of Their Own.

Hopefully, Nations Will Refuse To Accept A Situation In Which Nuclear Accidents Actually Do Occur, And, If At All Possible, They Will Do Something To Correct A System Which Makes Them Likely.
