U. S. Should Control
War, Speaker Tells
Wood side Club
A blunt assertion that the United
States should uee its present world
supremacy to set up an interna
tional organization providing com
plete control over all kinds of war
was made yesterday by Dr. W.
M. Oewehr, head of the history
department at the University of
Maryland.
Dr. Oewehr declared that the
Acheaon - Lilienthal recommanda
tions on atomic energy fall "far
short" of the controls needed be
cause they permit the use of the
veto in fields other than atomic
energy.
"If other methods of war arent ;
controlled," he declared, It would
be hopeless to expect that controls
over atomic energy would survive, 1
once war broke out." 1
An effective organization should
have both law-making and law
enforcement powers, Dr. Gewehr :

Hie speaker, who addressed a
meeting of the Woman's Club of
Woodside, called for a complete
revision of thinking on the whole :
subject of International organiza
tion.
Warning that it will be just a !
question of time before other coun
tries develop the atom bomb, he '
said the United States should not
hesitate to use Its present position
to force the world to accept ade
quate controls.
In addition to atomic energy,
such weapons as the rocket bomb !
developed during the last war have
provided the opportunity for an
unscrupulous person or nation to
bonquer the world, he pointed out.
Dr. Gewehr took leave of absence
last year to go to Europe where 1
he set up the history departments
In the Army university program
in Englaad and France. He also 1
served in the Army lecture bureau 1
in Germany for three months.
