CU Book written by Commander Sir Stephen King-Hall - "Defence in the Nuclear Age". SV Sir Stephen: "Now, of course, it is easy enough to knock down the present defence system, but the question is, can one find a better one. I think one can, in fact I think I've done it. The basis of my new idea is that Great Britain in collaboration with other like-minded nations should announce that we will not use nuclear energy for military purposes, that's the key statement. All I can say now is that it is time we took Milton's advice and let England show her presence by teaching other nations how to live, before these terrible weapons in the hands of ten, twenty or thirty nations, weapons which if used, would cause unimaginable destruction and produce terrible effects on generations as yet unborn".
