a far greater
problem than the
hostage crisis. For the first
time since humanity inhab­
ited the earth, weapons of
mass destruction exist that
can erase mankind from this
planet.
Today the WHOLE WORLD is
being held for ransom! Would we
have forgotten all about our S2
government representatives held
hostage, if we were not reminded

four billion of us
are being held in danger of human
extinction

Do we think that just
by keeping our minds otf of it, the
threat to our own survival will
somehow just go away
?
Are the hard, cold facts we face
too awesome-too frightening-to
think sensibly about
?
Are we
playing ostrich-until it will be
too late
?
This voice reminds ,·au-there
had to be a CAUSE to bring us to
our No. I problem of human
survival' And we are pursuing that
same CAUSE with incr easing
momentum!
Are we deceiving ourselves

Do
we reason foolishly that nuclear
and other mass-destruction weap­
ons are so frightening that no one
will
dare
unleash them

weapon of increased mass destruc­
