and explain public apathy led me to conduct
a random informal survey... . Everyone ex-
pressed a desire for peace, yet nat one was
engaged in uny kind of activity in that direc-
tion. The first question | would like to see
asked of women in general is this: Why are
you not commitied to a policy of action in be-
half of world peace?
‘Do you think that our present government
policy, based on the assumption that peace
depends upon a continuing arms race, is
correct, and therefore no action on your
part is necessary?
‘Do you think thet scientists and philoso-
phers like Albert Schweitzer, Bertrand Rus-
sell, Linus Pauling and Hsrrison Brown are
unduly slarmed at the proscect cf the de-
Struct.on of mankind; that they have exag-
gerated the threat of nuclear war and
dangers of radioactive fallout?
‘Do you think that general disarmament is
not feasible? That Russia does not want
peace as much as we do? That Russian pro-
posals for total disarmament are insincere?
That is it impossible to wark out effective
Inspection and contro! measures?
‘Do you think that political preblems, such
33s the Berlin question, must be solved be-
fore disarmament can take place?
‘Do you think that U.S. prosperity is pos-
sible anly in a situation of massive arms
production?
‘What steps could tne U.S. take to help set
@ new climate of trust? Or can we move
only after agreement with the USSR?
‘What work needs to be done in cur com-
munities to advance the ideas and atti-
tudes essential ta a just peece? What re-
Sources are available and what specific
jobs can an individual do? ”
