While the commission favored the abolishment of atomic energ; an instrument of warfare, B; ruch declared that the commis- sion strongly recommended ‘that atomic energy be used in peace- ful pursuits. The energy, he asserted, should be employed to lighten the bur- dens of mankind and not to create in them a state of dread should Janother war occur. At present, under an agree- ment of the United Nations, the Big Five, the United States, Great Britain, China and France, must approve any pro- posal for it to become effected, and Barruch suggested that that rule be abolished in the strictures that would bet set up by the UN to control atomic en- And, he added, there should not be any veto power in the UN’s deciding to act against any pow- er that violated the proposed agreement to stop the manufac- jturing of atomic energy for pur- poses of war. Besides, he argued, dire punishment should be ap- plied to any nation.that.attempt- ed to manufacture atomic bombs. Further, plants in which the bombs would be manufactured should be destroyed and all atom- ic energy material seized. Strictures of a similar nature, Barruch said the Atomic Ener- gy Commission advocated, should apply also to all other weapons capable of causing mass destruction of human lives. They would include the use of certain gas and death- dealing bacteria. . Conversely, he concluded, the United Nations should encourage study of atomic energy for the rpose of using it industrially.
