Wallace Hints {A-Bomb Called
Third Party May Be Needed
First - Editorial Calls For New Leadership
NEW YORK, Dec. 11 (U, P).— Yormer Secretary of Commerce A. Wallace said in his first torial today as editor of the New Republic that progressive elements must first attempt to rebuild the Democratic party as a liberal party. Failing that, “strike out along other lines,” he advised. While not suggesting a third party as such, Mr. Wallace said Americans had “called for a new leadership” and that until they find fit “they will not rest.” : Progressives, he said, ‘are no small and beaten group.” They have, he added, “just begun to fight.” “Fighting Job” Mr. Wallace accepted the editorship of the New Republic shortly after his resignation from President Truman's cabinet as a result of his disagreement with the administration's foreign policy. He entitled his first editorial “Jobs, Peace and Freedom.” He said he considered his new position “a fighting job” to “organize a progressive America.” “I find no lasting defeat in the recent setbacks of the Democratic party, but a challenge to make a new start,” Mr, Wallace wrote,

BELFAST, Ireland, Dec. "11 (U. P.) Prof. Harold Urey, Uhiversity of Chicago physicist, told a Queens {university audience last night that the atom bomb was the cheapest war weapon imaginable. “We could make 10,000 bombs at $2 million apiece,” he said, “and the number would be so great they could easily destroy all the important eities of the world.” Prof. Urey said that there probably would never be a certain defense against the atom bomb,

Modern imperialists dream that in the name of jobs and freedom we shall fight a third world war. Peace and Jobs “Rejecting all these, I stand for one idea: That jobs, peace and freedom can be attained together and can make possible one world, prosperous and free, within our lifetime.”
Mr. Wallace said that the govern- |
ment must act now if it is to prevent a depression. He added that a depression is inevitable unless some action is taken to prevent it. Lowered production in the United States will mean a depression
