Burlington Atomic Energy Week, 1946-1950

They're having atomic energy week at Burlington, under the guidance of energetic, atomic Dorothy Schramm . . . One is intensely curious about the follow up. What happens after the Burlingtonians understand atomic energy, say about next Saturday?


Are we any closer to One World, or do we still continue to elect the same kind of scissorbills who'll have us all blown up by atomic bombs some day? Anyhow, the Burlintons are brighter than we in the DM hinterland; we'd need at least an Atomic Energy Fortnight.

Russia's tactics at the U.N. always remind me of the story about the Russian general who met the lovely little girl from Minsk in the railroad compartment . . . For just a few minutes he was sweet & sociable & then he roared out "All right, that's enawf lawf-making!"
The Russians should remember that us girl don't scare so quickly any more.


As to the Russians & their atomic bomb, I'm an optimist at heart. It's my theory that the first atomic bomb the Russians fire from Moscow will probably hit Leningrad.
