Dear Sir,

   Might I be allowed to congratulate you upon your efforts to secure the control of Atomic energy, about which I read recently in a Canadian newspaper as a bedridden veteran of the first World War (1914-18)  I realise only too well the horrors of warfare, & pray that your aims may meet with success.  
  It is, however, over two years since the first Atomic bomb was dropped and the question is, how much more time has civilisation in which to wake up its mind - before it is too late.    With best wishes.
                                                      Yours very truly
                                                          B. Simmons, Jun.
