Rhodes thought a woman's page
would be very nice. The Hearst
papers were featuring the wri-
tings of a woman named Dorothy
Dix who was very popular. The
Chronicle secured the services of
a Mrs. Ada Greenhut who ran a
sort of advice-to-the-lovelorn col-
umn, discussing such problems as
intermarriage and the like. The
column created a great deal of in-
terest and ran as long as Rhodes
continued as editor.

By CHARLES BENSON

WASHINGTON.—This atomic year of 1946 will soon see the publi-
cation in a first printing of 100,00 copies of the outstanding work on the
meaning of the atom bomb and of atomic energy. "One World Or
None" is to be published in February by Whittlesey House, which is so
excited over the galaxy of distinguished authorities their editors have
rounded up that, for widest possible circulation they are departing
from long-established policy and issuing the book in an expensive
paper edition.

Contributions include Albert Einstein, J. R. Oppenheimer, who
was in charge of the New Mexico trial of the bomb, Leo Szilard, Hans
Bethe, Irving Langmuir, General H. H. Arnold, Walter Lippmann and
numerous others.

A statement by the eminent Danish physicist Nils Bohr, written
within one week of the fall of the first atomic bomb, has been secured
for inclusion. The publishers proudly say that this pronouncement,
not previously issued in the United States, is considered by American
atomic scientists to be the classic pronouncement on the subject. One
of the legends of this war is the spiriting away of Dr. Bohr from
under the noses of the Nazis. By submarine from Denmark to Sweden,
thence via fighter plane to England, and by bomber from there to the
United States constitutes quite an odyssey. According to latest re-
ports, the scientist was back home in Copenhagen.
An entertaining postscript might—but won't—contain some of the '
new Einstein stories born during consultations on the book.
There is the occasion when Walter Lippmann came to Princeton
to confer with Dr. Einstein on their respective atomic ideas and man-
ner of presentation. The eminent Dr. E. looked dreamily out the
window while Lippmann expounded his opinions. When the columnist
finally decided that they had better put it all down in writing first,
Einstein turned around, looked directly at Lippmann, and with his
well-known direct simplicity inquired merely, "Why?" That, according
to observers, almost stumped Mr. Lippmann, which is a state in
which some of his less oracular colleagues would be interested to
see him.

Rhodes Sells Out
In April of 1917, war was de-
clared and Rhodes sold his inter-
