“RED DEAN " AND THE ATOMIC BOMB
LONDON, Oct. 2 (Rec. 9 a.m.)— The Dean of Canterbury, Dr Hewlett Johnson, telling the Manchester Peace Committee today that he was not surprised to hear that the atomic bomb had been exploded in Russia, added: “I advise my American friends not to think they have priority in the number of bombs.” The Dean said the Russians had not bragged about the bomb. The people desired peace. “If peace broke out in Russia tomorrow, what a paean of praise would go up, but if peace broke out in America what a catastrophe of mass unemployment,” he said.
