BAN URGED ON BOMBS
“Approaching Point Of No Return” LONDON. March 25. The President of the Methodist Conference (Dr. Donald Soper) appealed to Christians everywhere today to demand the outlawing of atomic and hydrogen bombs. “I believe we are approaching in this atomic experiment a point of no return, if we have not already reached it.” he said. “Responsible statesmen must take this new and terrible fact into immediate serious consideration. “I wish, above all, that the Christian Church could find a united voice at this critical moment in human history. The issue for humanity as a whole is so urgent that proposals from any quarter to ban or abolish atomic and hydrogen bombs should be immediately accepted by every responsible human being.”
