THE UNITED STATES
Reading certain United States
newspapers and magazines, and
listening to some of its radio com-
mentators, one might get the idea
that the 'development of the atom
bomb was a purely American
achievement—and that it is nothing
short of impertinence for Britain
or Canada tb expect to share in the
secrets.
Some American writers, however,
take a saner view; and from an
article by Ernest K. Lindley in.
NEWSWEEK I quote the follow-
ing:
Britain began work on the de-
velopment of the atom bomb before'
we 'did. 'An exchange of atomic
information between the two coun-
tries began in 1940—In 1943
Churchill and Roosevelt agreed
that the, two programs should be
fused—The British halted nearly all
of their research and development •
projects and moved most of their
key atomic scientists to this coun-
try. Their accomplishments at this
time had gone considerably beyond
the research state.
"Members of the British 'team'
in the United States worked hand
in hand with the Americans on
some of the most secret computa-
tions and processes, including the
actual assembly of bombs at Los
.Alamos.
"Our Atomic Energy Act of 1946,
however, put Britain and Canada
on the same basis as 'other foreign
countries. It prohibited the Atomic
Energy Commission from exchang-
ing information with other nations
—and from distributing fissionable
materials to any person outside • the
jurisdiction of the United States.
The question of British and Cana-
dian equities received little con-
sideration at that time chiefly be-
cause the governments of all three
countries looked forward to the
creation of an atomic authority
under the United Nations. That
hope was gradually strangled by
the Soviet Union.
Mr, Lindley goes on to tell how
the United States Act prohibits the
Commission from giving a vast and ..
growing amount of technical in-
formation which Britain and Can-
ada want, and to which they feel
entitled. He also points out that the
chief sources of high-grade uranium
ore are Canada and the Belgian
Congo, where the British have cer-
tain contractural rights which •
might be used to cut off supplies
now going to the United States.
"Britain knows how to make
atomic weapons," Lindley con -
chides, "If it is to be denied a firm
and full partnership with the United
States, including' perhaps sure ac-
cess to atomic weapons in case of
need, it may reasonably be expected
to fermi other atomic liaisons, cer-
tainly within the commonwealth
and conceivab'y with France,"
All of which sour,'; like a far
more sane and rational view than
you'd get, for instance, from the
lit, :• : newspapers or the Chicago
"Tribune.
POLAND
"'There'll be pie in the sky bye -
and -bye" would seem to be the
theme=song in Poland, where every-
body who has anything to do with
gunning the country, from President
Bierut 'down, seems to be fairly
gushing enthusiasm for the new 6 -
year plan of economic recovery.
The new • program is scheduled
to start around December 1st.,
which • is the tentative date fixed
for completion of the first three-
year plan which started in 1946.
Right now the accent is on what
conies next. The Communist -domin-
ated Government predicts • that by
1955 • the following things, among
many others, will have come to
pass;
National income will be- 97 per
cent higher than in 1949; produc-
tion in state-owned industries will
rise 114 per cent; Poland will be
producing 110,000 motor vehicles
annually including 60,000 trucks;
'sugar production will jump from
an expected high this year of 620,-
000
20;000 tous to 900,000 tons; 600,000
new homes will be built at a cost
of $725,000,000.
And that is by no means all.
Educational facilities will 'be ex-
tended by 181 per cent; radio re-
ceiving apparatuis will be increased
from the present million sets to
two and a half million; the Polish
merchant fleet will be tripled, and
there will be plenty more which I
haven't space to detail here.
But there's just one factor which
I would advise being taken into
consideration before you decide to
turn'your back on Canada and set
sail for Poland. Whatever Poland
needs in the way of capital goods
for all this expansion, it expects
to get largely from Soviet Russia
during tihe next six years.
Well, as the fellow said, they
can't jail you for hoping.
How'd You Like To
Be An Announcer?
Women radio listeners who have
always thought tlhey might be able
to do a fair announcing job them-
selves will have the chance of their
lives at this year's Canadian Na-
tional Exhibition.
Mrs. Kate Aitken, women's di-
rector, has announced that this
year in the Women's World 'The -
ere there is to be a daily contest
to find the best woman announcer.
Daily winner's will then compete
for the top awards,
Each contestant will be asked to
put on a 10 -minute music show—
;recordings, of course. Between
numbers, she will be asked to give
the time of day; a weather an-
nouncement, a plug for the C,N,E,,
and make •a few personal comments
if she wishes,
At the close of the Ex,, those
given top honors will be given
guest spots on regular radioN-
grams ' originating from the fair
grounds.
SPORT
Just a week ago, we took 'a few
casual raps at the form of athletic
pastl'ming known as track and field,
and right away, one of our fans
who never misses a 'single, word we
write (rhe has to read proof on it)
handed us a sharp reprimand, hi
' fact, a couple of them.
* * *
First, he made a mila'routine beef
that either our typewriter or our
spelling was rapidly getting worse,.
although he thought maybe it :night
be a combination of both. Then he
took us to task for not makingan
exception — in potting the blast
-on track and field meets - in the
case of one particular variety of the
same. "Where . else will you see
such uncomplaining gameness, such
„anent heroism," he demanded, "as
you will at the—?"
* *
But perhaps we had better explain
the whole matter for the benefit of
those who do not reside ' in or near
the fair City of Toronto.
* * *
For untold years, the police force
of that metropolis a noble body
of troops if ever there was one, and
we only hope they read this far—
have been throwing annual sessions
of track and field, known familiarly
as' the Police Games. And as far
back as we can remember, said
games had been notable, among'
other things, for the minute per-
centage of . spectators who turned
out, as compared with the huge
:number of tickets sold. t
* *
Some day — maybe rightafter
we cash in on the. :next Irish Sweep
—we intend doig a lot ,of` deep
research into the problem of wily
members of a police , force: find it
so much easier , to sell tickets to
benefits, concerts and other such
rackets than ordinary folk, espe-
cially if they happen to be members
w,ho customarily go round placing
parking tags on . folks' jallopies.
Until then, however, it must remain
a mystery, although you may take
our word that it's so.
* * *
Anyway, the police athletes used
to perform to wide acreages of seats
that had been sold, but remained
vacant until some genius thought of
pepping things up with an added
attraction. Furthermore, this added
attraction turnedout to be nothing
but a beautycontest, in -whisk some {
of the sightlrfer young members of,
the opposing sex parade around at-
tired
ttired in nothing but a few loose
bandages and one thing and an-
other.
* * *
Well, from that moment forward,:.
Police Games in Toronto — also in
other centres, they tell us, which
copied the idea — changed into
tonrpletely different affairs. Instead
of citizens paying out 'good dough
for the privilege of staying away,
they turned out by the tens of
thousands _ turned out in such
quantities that the hearts of those
addicted to track and field were
made glad. "At long last," they said
to themselves, "the 'merits of track
and field are beginning to receive,
proper recognition. Before long,
who knows but Canada will be right
in the same class in such spots as
Sweden, Norway, Russia and other
enlightened lands where the spiked
shoe and the vaulting pole can out-
-draw the baseball bat or the hockey'
puck 10 to 1, or better?"

But, alas and slack, for soMe un-
known reason it hasn't turned out.
quite that way, and -that is why, at
the Police Games, you will witness
scenes of uncomplaining gameness
and silent heroism our proof-reading
friend was alluding • to when we
choked him off with a wad''of copy
paper.
* * *
First of all, there are the athletes
out there in the broiling stns; sprint-
ing, hurdling, juinping and pole-
vaulting their little hearts out, and
trying to look as if they imagined
somebody, outside of the officials,
cared a hoot about what they are
doing. That takes real gameness,
friends; because every last one of
those athletes knows right well that
99 and 44-100 per cent. of the spec-,
tators wouldn't care if every one of
them dropped dead, being interested
solely in the cheese -ca — we mean,
of course, the added attraction.
* * *
But dont go away; you haven't
heard anything yeti. While those
male athletes show gallant courage
under sus h punishment, theirs is by
iso means the only 'exhibition of
silent heroism r--• or maybe it ,should
be,theroinism - you will behold at
Mese spectacles.
* * *
For, after those sightlier members
of the fair sex have paraded around
until they are in clanger of third-
degree sunburn, then comes the
judging. And after the judges have
done their stuff, all • the lightly
garbed contestants line up on either
side of the one who has been finally
Chosen to wear the Crown of
Beauty. .
* * *
And as those lovelies stand there
with wide toothpaste smiles on
their kissers, you would imagine
from the expression on their faces
that they are just dying to shout,
"Three rousing cheers! Isn't Ver-
myntrude just too sweet and aren't
those judges the dillies! pickers for
"choosing her as Beauty• Queen?"
* * *
They do this, and get away with
it; 'when all the time yog know that
the best they are wishing Vermyn-
trude is a broken . neck and that
they would pay good money to slit
the judges from ear to eat, That,
friends, is sheer silent gameness;
and we greatly doubt if the male of
the species can match it, any time,
any place; in peace or in war.
