Mr. and Mrs. Emperor Purvis,

nounce the brith of a daughter,
t* 7 * The Atom Bomb '
V OU and your fellow citizens
* spent two billion dollars to
produce the atom bomb. You
employed scientists and paid
them high wages. You paid the
salaries of the members of gov
ernment whose duty it was to
bring about the development of
this weapon before the enemy
“beat us to it.” So this discov
ery belongs to YOU. It doesn’t
belong to President Truman or
to Bernard Baruch or to Mr.
Gromyko and “his” United Na
tions organization.
Commissions have been ap
pointed; plans have been pro
mulgated; foreign enthusiasts
have suggested brilliant schemes
for giving our property away to
the world in general — and to
Russia in particular. The latest
proposal is to destroy our bombs
and then turn the secret grace
fully over to the rest of the world
upon their promise not to use it.
Now isn’t that just dandy!
In normal times such prepos
terous suggestions wouldn’t be
considered. But times are not
normal, nor are some of the peo
ple who make the times. So you
who own this secret be prepared
to instantly squash any move in
Washington, or in the U. N., or
elsewhere — to destroy our
bombs or to divulge the secrets
of their composition. Before
their security is destroyed, the
America? people must demand
a referendum to allow them to
decide by a majority vote
whether or not to trust other and
more aggressive nations with
our continued existence upon
this earth.
Some of the advocates of this
ftupid altruism say that the
Russians probably have the se
cret anyhow, so why not divulge
rur knowledge and avoid hurt-
l«g anyone’s feelings. How
.caching!
:t is far more probable that
•* would take the Russians — at
••i* very least — 10 years to de-
vi-iop their first bomb. And in
:''.e meantime perhaps some
y •todus may invent a system to
..•••rent war.
V‘l down for a moment and
a.-Alyze just how you would be
!f elutg today if certain other na-
» ; .ms possessed the power to
atomic bombs in New
Yo;k, Chicago, San Francis
co, etc. Would you feel as se-
/nre you do now? Think it

over seriously — and if you be
lieve your “life and death” se
cret is about, to be given away
without your consent — tell
your congressman that you con
sider the atom bomb your prop
erty and that you demand the
right to vote upon its disposi
tion. And don’t delay too long—
because the “Give America
Away” boys are well aware of
the sure results of such a refer
endum and will try to “jump the
gun” on us while we sleep.
Lest we forget — the atom bomb
is just as devastating today as
it was when it was dropped
on Hiroshima.

At a simple but impressive cere

1946, at 10 o’clock, Miss Dorothy
C. Rowe, daughter of Mr. apd Mrs,
J. J. Rowe, Sr., Brunswick, , Ga.,
was united in marriage to Alvin
J. Willis, RM 2-c, son of Mr. and
Mrs. A. P. Willis, of McCormick,
South Carolina.
The wedding took place at the
First Methodist Church, with the
Rev. Leland Moore performing the
double-ring ceremony. The church
was beautifully decorated with
potted ferns and gladioli. Preced
ing the ceremony Miss Thelma
Ruth Blackbufn sang “Because,’
and “I Love You Truly,” with Mrs
L. D. Opdenbrouw presiding at
the organ.
The bride was given in marriage
by her brother, Ensign John Rowe,
and was attended by Miss Frances
Troupe. Earl Collier, SK 2-c,
served as best man.
The bride, an attractive blonde,
was smartly attired in white eye
let, fashioned bn simple lines
with white accessories. Completing
costume was a shoulder corsage
of red rose buds.
Mrs. Rowe, mother of the bride,
was attired in gray chiffon with
a corsage of yellow roses. Mrs.
Willis, mother of the bridegroom,
wore blue crepe with matching
accessories and a corsage of roses.
Immediately after the ceremony
a small reception was held at the
home of the bride’s parents.
Mrs. Willis is an honor graduate
of Glynn Academy in the class of
1943. and has since been associat
ed with the Brunswick Marine
Construction Corporation.
The groom received his educa
tion in the schools of McCormick,
S. C., and for the past three years
has been in the U. S. Navy, serv
ing two and a half years overseas.
Later in the day Mr. and Mrs.
Willis left for a wedding trip to
points of interest in Florida and I In loving memory of our darling
South Carolina, after which they companion and mother, Mrs. |
will make their home at Green Maude Robinson Deason, who de-

is now stationed. a face that is ever before us,
A voice that we’ll never forget,
A smile that will last forever,
In memory we love her yet.
Deep in our hearts lies a picture.
Of her who is at rest.
In memory’s frame we keep it
Because we love her best.
Gone, but leaving memories,
Death could not take away
Memories that shall aways linger,
While upon this earth we stay.
Let’s remember that we told her
As she often kneeled in prayer,
That we would meet her over yon
der,
In that city bright and fair.
Then with faith let’s keep our
promise,
To the one whose love was true,
There we’ll meet her with the
angels.
When our work on earth is
through.
Devoted Husband and Children.
