HYSTERIA CONDEMNED BY ADMIRAL NIMITZ
NEW YORK, March 22 (Recd. 7.15 pm).—Fleet Admiral Chester Nimitz said today that American possession of the Hydrogen bomb would reduce the threat of its use in a world-wide conflict.
Admiral Nimitz said: "I view with concern the growing hysteria and worrymongering which endangers our national health and vitality. We are worrying over a weapon we have not yet proved we can produce, but if anybody can make it the prospects of its ever being used as a threat or In a conflict will surely be reduced if we possess It.’’
