Dear Dr. Einstein: | Dear Dr. Einstein: | ||
| − | Most deeply I appreciate and thank you for your letter with its solemn warning of the world' s threatened catastrophe, and affirming the great educational task to which your Emergency Committee of Atomic Scientists is pledged. It is a privilege to help your great Movement in whatever way I am able. Surely the prophetic truth of your words is becoming apparent to all who have not already become dearly aware. Thus we have cause for deep thanksgiving that you, honored Scientist, and your devoted Colleagues, have undertaken this "inescapable responsibility to "carry to the peoples of the world an aroused understanding, leading, as we hope, to strict control of atomic energy and its use for purely constructive purposes." Truly the consciousness responds that "in this lies our only security and our only hope." | + | Most deeply I appreciate and thank you for your letter with its solemn warning of the world's threatened catastrophe, and affirming the great educational task to which your Emergency Committee of Atomic Scientists is pledged.

In the United World Magazine, of which I am an associate Editor, I have written an article relating to this subject. Dr. Pantaleone, Editor, and Founder of the United World Movement, has written a brilliant editorial on the construct use use of Atomic energy. I should like to send you, if I may do so, under separate cover, copy of our Magazine. | In the United World Magazine, of which I am an associate Editor, I have written an article relating to this subject.
