There Is Salvation From
Deep-Freeze Future Fear
•- -4 .

For a long time now man has been
trying to do something more than talk
about the weather. Ironically and un-
fortunately, he may already have done
far more than he imagines, or desires.
In fact, should a new Ice Age de-
scend upon the earth in the centuries
immediately ahead, man — or at least
those as yet unasphyxiated survivors
from his present billions — may have -
to acknowledge that he brought it on
himself.
That, at least, would seem to he the
moral of the latest horror story from
the pollution front. Since the advent of
the fnd us trial Revolutlon, debris from
nufacturing processes has been ac-
um ul a ting in the atmosphere to such
extent that the earth is now en
jf m
veioped In a layer of dust which has
the effect of reflecting back into space
a portion of the energy radiated by the
sun.
The result has been a measurable
lowering of average temperatures, not
merely in industrial area* but world-
wide. So far it is only in fractions of
a degree; But even- minor tempera-
ture changes, if prolonged and wide-
spread, can have startling effects on
climate and, consequently, on plant and
animal development and survival. It
would not take many degrees to trig-
ger renewed expansion of the polar ice
masses.
The prospect is literally chilling. The
ultimate in climate control — 20 de-
grees cooler not only inside but out-
doors ar well. 4-y
And, if by now we are accustomed,
if not inured, to the physical threat of
pollution, along comes a warning there
may also be dire political conse-
quences. ’ '
Dr. Arnold Reltze, an expert in the
legal aspects from Cleveland’s Case
Western Reserve University, Suggests
pollution, or the effort to control it,
could be" fatal to our concept of a free*
society. ---------—- —--------------- -::~
__ As likely inevitable restraints on the
individual and' mass, TORSt ^suggests:
• ‘^Outlawing the-internal combusion ,
engine for vehicles and outlawing,or
strick controls over all forms of
combustion.
"—Rigid controls on the marketing of
new products, which will be required
to prove a minimum pollution poten-
tial.
—Controls on all research and de-
velopment, to be halted at the slightest
prospect of additional pollution.
DOCTOR’S MAILBAG
■ ^ ' '■ ......
—Possibly even population controls,
the number of children per family
prescribed and punishment for exceed-
ing the limit.
In Reitze’s view, “We will be forced
to sacrifice democracy by the laws
that will protect us from further .pol-
lution.”
All is not despair and disaster,
however. President Nixon’s decision
to make environmental cleanup a
major administration effort and, even
more importantly, continuing and
growing public agitation are hopeful
indications that all is not necessarily
already lost.
Fortunately, man has the capacity,
if often imperfectly exercised, to learn.
He can say that he did not know the
consequences back when he began to
transform, and devastate, the environ-
ment for his own often questionable
purposes. He does know now, and the
measures to correct the damage are
either already at hand or largely
within his grasp.
It is up to him to make a little
knowledge not a dangerous thing, but
his salvation from-a deep-frozen future
and a smoggy version of 1984.
BY AL MELLINGER
One recent evening many
thousands of Americans
flocked to theaters and
auditoriums to witness at
approximately'ft per head a
filmed version of a fist fight
which never happened. 7 . ,
The principals were a dead
man and a heavyweight who
had been barred from the ring
because of draft evasion. Both
were ex-champions, both
undefeated. The events, all
predicted by a computed which
had been stuffed with the
Taste Helps
opinions 01 man; eaperu,
terminated in the hypothetical
13th round knockout of Cassius
Clay by Rocky Marciano.
Use of the computer
technique to stage historical
fantasies is McLuhanism in the
ultimate degree. The medium
is indeed the message. The
device uf computerized
prizefights, matching cham-
pions- from-various widely
separated eras, was the fertile
concept oFa promoter whohas
apparently captured the at-
tention of fistic connoisseurs.
It is a concept which could be
elaborated. You could match -
Hannibal against Napoleon or
Caeser or Dwight Eisenhower.
You could determine whether
or not Lyndon Johnson could
have defeated Warren
Gamaliel Harding at the polls.
Or compere the presidential
capacity of Spiro Agnew with
that of Andrew Johnson who

All of Which' is phonyism.
