  6 November 1961

  Dear Friend:

  I have just returned from London. I was only on the television show for a few minutes, but I think that it was well worth while to take the three days for this purpose - one day to travel to London, one day there, and one to get home. The television show was the one called This Week, from 8:00 to 8:30 P.M. on Friday 3 November. It is estimated by the British Independent Television Company that there are 10 million viewers, and I was told that for the first time a really vigorous statement had been made to the British people that they would all be killed if there were to be a great nuclear war. I commented on the damage to the human race that is being done now by the radioactive elements produced by the great Russian tests of the last weeks. My estimate is that 4,400,000 children will be caused to be born with gross physical or mental defect as a result of these tests, provided that the human race survives. I did not include an approximately equal number of embryonic deaths and stillbirths, because they do not cause so much human suffering as the neonatal deaths, childhood deaths, and viable children with gross physical or mental defect. The response to the program was excellent. A number of scientists and other intellectuals immediately planned, I was informed, to write letters to the newspapers about the statements that I had made. Perhaps Great Britain can be stimulated to take a vigorous lead in the fight for disarmament.

  Then on Saturday I flew home, by the Polar route, and immediately on arrival went to a Los Angeles television station, where for two hours I carried on a debate with Congressman Chet Holifield, who is the Chairman of the Joint Congressional Committee on Atomic Energy. He made use of every trick, including those used by McCarthy, to attack me and support his thesis that the United States should construct a great system of fallout shelters. I characterized this action as one form of militarism, the effect of which, in providing protection to the people, can be completely neutralized by an increase in the scale of the nuclear attack.

  It is unfortunate that our system of government, which is excellent in most respects, has a flaw, in that the leading men in Congress are the ones who have held office longest. For example, the Chairman of the Joint Congressional Committee on Atomic Energy, Mr. Holifield, has this position because of seniority - because he has been in the Congress for twenty years and happened to be appointed a member of this Committee fifteen years ago - rather than on the basis of ability.

  I bought a copy of Punch while in London and was pleased to see that there were many references to nuclear destruction and to the fallacy of fallout-shelter construction in it. I am sending you two pages. One shows a cartoon of Khrushchev that refers to the pollution of milk with radioactive fission products. The strontium-90 content of milk will begin to go up seriously in a few months, and will have a high level for years. The Russian tests were more serious in this respect than the earlier tests carried out by the United States and Great Britain in the Pacific. In the earlier tests the bombs were exploded close to the ground, so that soil was vaporized in the fireball. As it condensed, it entrapped about 80 percent of the fission products, and carried them into the ocean. Some of the carbon 14 was also trapped in this way. The Russian tests were carried out at rather high altitudes in the atmosphere, because the local fallout, if the bomb were exploded close to the ground, would no doubt have killed many people in Siberia. However, as a result these Russian tests liberate about five times as much radioactive material per megaton as the Pacific tests.

  We can expect the content of radioactive iodine, iodine 131, in milk to go up rapidly during the next few weeks. Iodine 131 has a half life of only eight days, but tremendous amounts are made in a nuclear explosion, and the radioiodine is concentrated in the thyroids of people, especially of infants and children, and damages them in such a way as to cause cancer of the thyroid. I estimate that during the next twenty years about 50,000 children will die of cancer of the thyroid because of the Russian tests. A possible preventive measure is to give the infants and children and also pregnant and lactating women ordinary potassium iodide, for a period of about a month after the great tests. This decreases greatly the amount of radioiodine that goes into the thyroid. However, very few people in the world will take such preventive action. Also, very few will use mineral calcium in the diet to decrease the amount of strontium 90 built into the bones of children.

  The other sheet from Punch has a short poem on the Nobel Peace Prizes. You probably have seen it, but on the chance that it has escaped your attention I am sending it to you. The poem contains a mild criticism of the Award Committee - in large part, of course, not justified. I myself felt that it was fine that Luthuli should have been given the Prize for 1960. With Hammarskjöld, my principal feeling is one of regret that he did not receive the Prize while he was alive.

  There is now a great ferment in the United States and other countries about nuclear war. Nearly every day demonstrations are being held in various American cities. I think that I mentioned to you the peace walk that was held two weeks ago in Los Angeles, which ended in a public park, where I spoke to the marchers. Then last week there were 1000 Los Angeles women in a demonstration against fallout shelters, outside of the principal government buildings in the city. There seems to me to be much less tendency on the part of the press to ridicule the demonstrators than there was a year or two ago.

  Cordially yours,

  [Linus Pauling]

  6 Nov. 1961

  To: Linus Jr., Peter, Linda and Crellin

  From: Linus

  Subject: Iodine 131

  I have estimated, on the basis of E. B. Lewis's estimates, that probably about 50,000 children will die of cancer of the thyroid during the next 20 years, as a result of irradiation from the iodine-131 from the recent Russian bomb tests, which probably will begin to get in the milk in a week or so and will continue at high level for a month or so.

  The Committee on Nuclear Information, St. Louis, has issued a bulletin pointing out that the readings might get as high as 5,000 to 10,000 micromicrocuries per liter, and that there might be some delay in reporting the high values.

  The bulletin, which I have shown to Dr. Perry, also points out that it is possible to cut down the amount of iodine-131 that will settle in the thyroids of infants and children (and in smaller amounts older people) by adding iodine ion to the diet. The bulletin says that the effect would be cut down by a divisor 100 if every day a child is given one drop of a tenfold diluted saturated solution of potassium iodide. That is, the amount of iodide proposed per day is one tenth of a drop of a saturated solution.

  I have brought a small bottle of potassium iodide home. You might think it worth while to make a saturated solution, to dilute some of the solution ten-fold, and to give the kids one drop a day for a month or two, starting now, and at some later period if there is another series of great atmospheric tests.

• Letter from LP to President Clarke Kerr, University of California, Berkeley, RE: LP’s research interests have been in biology and medicine for several years now.  He discovered the first clearly characterized molecular disease, and just published a paper on a molecular theory of anesthesia.  He has wanted to spend some time in a school of medicine, which might lead to a significant contribution to medicine.  The University of California School of Medicine came up in a conversation with Dr. Featherstone, which attracted him because he liked the area and was a lecturer at Berkeley for five years.  However, it is now being said that there isn’t enough space for him, but other communications seem to point to President Kerr being the one to veto it.  LP would like to know if this is true.

  The Significance of the Bomb-Test Negotiations

  by Linus Pauling.

  Ford Hall Forum, Jordan Hall, Boston. Sunday 12 November 1961

  The sudden resumption of the testing of nuclear weapons by the Soviet Union, after nearly three years when none of the great nuclear powers carried out bomb tests, has caused greatly increased concern about the damage done to human beings by the radioactive materials produced in the bomb tests and about the increasing magnitude of the nuclear stockpiles, which indicates the possibility of an even more destructive nuclear war than has been anticipated in earlier discussions.

  On the basis of the opinions of leading geneticists, it can be estimated that the bomb tests carried out so far have released radioactive fission products into the atmosphere that will in the course of a few generations cause about 250,000 children to be born, with gross physical or mental defect, as a result of gene mutations, who would have been normal if the bomb tests had not been carried out. In addition, the radioactive carbon-14 produced from the nitrogen of the atmosphere by the neutrons released in the bomb tests can be expected to cause about 2,500,000 grossly defective children, during some thousands of years, if the human race continues to populate the earth.

  The amount of human suffering involved in the birth of these children may be very small compared with the human suffering that would be caused by a great nuclear war, but the nature of the damage, affecting unborn children for generation after generation, is such as to give rise to a special feeling of horror.

  The continued stockpiling of nuclear weapons during recent years is such that a nuclear war between the United States and the Soviet Union would probably leave each of these countries a radioactive waste, devastated by great fire storms, and with nearly all of the American people and the Russian people dead. A reasonable estimate, based upon the existing great bombers and rockets to deliver the weapons, is that the United States could carry out an attack on the Soviet Union with 20,000 megatons of nuclear bombs and the Soviet Union could carry out an attack on the United States with 10,000 megatons. These attacks would cause essentially the same effects - a larger number of bombs is needed in attacking the Soviet Union, because of its larger area and greater dispersal of the population. These attacks would kill approximately 94 percent of the people in each country (the fraction dead at the end of 60 days after the day on which the war took place), and leave most of the others seriously injured. If fallout shelters were to be constructed on a large scale in each of these countries, it would be necessary, in order to achieve the same extinction of the two nations, for the attacks to be quadrupled in size - an 80,000 megaton attack on the Soviet Union, and a 40,000 megaton attack on the United States. There is evidence that the United States now has 100,000 megatons of bombs, and it is accordingly likely that the increase in scale of the attack necessary to achieve extinction of the population in each of the two enemy countries could be and would be effected.

  Although it is likely that the leaders of the two great nations are sufficiently rational to refrain from engaging in nuclear war, there is great danger that the war would break out as the result of some accident or of some combination of circumstances such that even the wisest national leaders could not prevent the descent into the inferno. It is accordingly essential that steps be taken to decrease the danger, by moving toward the goal of general and complete disarmament through international agreements involving also the best possible systems of control and inspection.

  The bomb-test negotiations that were carried out in Geneva involve the discussion of a far more complicated set of agreements than had ever been attempted in international negotiations before. These negotiations were for the most part successful, in that most of the problems were resolved, and it had become evident in 1961 that the remaining problems could be resolved by reasonable compromise. These negotiations may accordingly serve as a pattern for the negotiations that must be resumed in the near future and that must be successful if civilization is to be preserved from destruction.

• Handwritten letter from Sherwood Waldron Jr. to LP, RE: Waldron read LP's recent letter to the Times about fallout shelters and is confused. LP stated that essentially no one would survive in a 75,000 square mile area if a 100 megaton bomb was exploded high enough. However, a recent series of civil defense television programs indicated that a 50 megaton bomb would completely destroy a five mile radius, but that no damage would reach people in fallout shelters outside this radius, and that beyond 60 miles one would not expect flash fires. Waldron, a Yale student, is engaged in an attempt to build a shelter under a dormitory, but does not want to raise the necessary funds if, indeed, the fallout shelter would not be effective. Waldron asks for the sources of LP's statistics and asks if LP could suggest an explanation the large discrepancy between his figures and those of the civil defense authorities.

  World Cooperation of Scientists

  Leningrad. 24 Nov. 1961. Akademia Nauk. Linus Pauling.

  It is a great honor for me to participate in a celebration of the 250 anniversary of the birthday of the great Russian scientist M. V. Lomonosov, and also a great honor for me to have been elected a member of the Akademia Nauk USSR. I express my thanks to you.

  Lomonosov's ideas about atoms and the structure of matter were brilliant but primitive. Some of his statements were wrong, or require much reinterpretation in the light of modern knowledge; but they were not significant in this epoch.

  A century ago another great Russian scientist, A. M. Butlerov, developed the structure theory of molecules of chemical substances. This was a most important advance. The classical structure theory, which applies very well to many molecules, uses the concept of single bonds, double bonds, triple bonds. These bonds do not exist by themselves in nature; they are idealizations, without precise definition; but they are valuable intellectual constructs of the chemist. I am sure that Lomonosov would agree that today, while we honor his memory, we should think not only about the past, but also about the future.

  Let us ask what would have happened if Butlerov's ideas had been examined by a committee. Russian scientists might have concluded that these ideas should not be used, because of the idealizations, the not-real double bonds.

  Thirty years ago there was developed an addition to structure theory, consisting in writing two or more valence-bond structures to be fused together to represent the structure of a molecule for which no one structure is satisfactory. About ten years ago this theory was vigorously discussed by Soviet chemists and the decision was made not to use it.

  I am sorry that I was not able to take part in this discussion - I was 1500 km. away. I have refrained from criticising this action from a distance.

  But I cannot refrain longer. Soviet chemistry has been seriously damaged, set back, by this decision. Especially students are harmed, who are prevented from learning about a significant part of modern chemistry.

  As a member of the Akademia Nauk, it is my duty now to speak. I am in a sense a Soviet scientist, as well as an American scientist. I have the strong feeling that I am a part of the whole human race, and the whole world is my concern.

  I think that the time has come to reconsider the decision about the theory of resonance in chemistry. As the years go by the world changes. Engels and Lenin did not believe that a decision in an important general field should be made once for all time. The thesis and antithesis must be presented and the synthesis found - but not forever, not as a binding restriction that will never be changed.

  Criticism and discussion should not be abandoned because a synthesis was achieved at some past time.

  The time has come for the theory of resonance to be discussed again, and for the arguments against it, both ideological and scientific, to be reexamined, and the arguments in its favor to be discussed; and this time I hope that I will be able to participate.

  For the sake of science, of the younger generation, let us examine this question of the theory of resonance again. The world changes. New ideas become a part of our thinking. Who can say that the decision now would be the same as ten years ago?

  In 1935 Pauli rejected the chirality of the neutrino. Over twenty years went by before this idea was seriously reexamined, by Lee and Yang, and found to be right.

  Continued discussion of important questions such as the theory of resonance is needed. Scientists must always examine and reexamine their science. This is a most important way to make progress. I do not advocate making a new decision that is final.

  And as in chemistry, so also in world affairs. Soviet scientists participating in the Pugwash conferences with other scientists, and also in the Oslo conference, made very important contributions toward the achievement of world peace. But we must not be satisfied with the synthesis achieved in the Vienna Declaration of the Third Pugwash Conference. These discussions must continue. Again and again the thesis and antithesis must be examined and the synthesis attempted. No matter how hard the task, how discouraging the circumstances, it is our duty as scientists and as human beings to stand side by side and to work for general and complete disarmament, world peace, and the enduring friendship and cooperation of all peoples. I am confident that we shall succeed, and that the future will be a future of peace and world cooperation.

  26 November -- Thanksgiving

  Dear Pete and Julia

  This trip, as always, is too short and too crowded with things to do, so I've had to make a choice and decided not to stop off in London this time around. I allotted myself two weeks, and if I go straight through I'll make it; and have a day to rest up from my laborious travels before getting back to the old grindstone. And it has been an old grindstone, too; for some reason I've been having an influx of patients and therefore working on some days from 8 am to 7 pm—too long for efficiency. After a day like that I'm not much good for anything except going home to bed. (And, worst of all, alone!) There are so many things to do around the house, with the boats and cars, in the workshop, etc., that I don't like working all the time even though there are various satisfactions to be derived from it. I've managed to get in a fair amount of sailing this fall, almost every weekend for three hours of so.

  I don't know if you know that I have a Honda Scrambler, a 250 cc motorbike of considerable liveliness which I ride to work when it's not raining (and then have to ride home when it is raining) and which turns out to be a tremendous amount of fun, both solo and with some chick clinging on behind. I haven't had a spill yet, but I daresay the time will come, and I hope I'm alone when it does. This bike has done more than anything to remind me that life isn't over at 40 (20 year old girls help too!) so I have some hope for the future.

  I finally sold my 1960 Porsche S90 coupe, totalled (in my opinion) a couple of years ago, to a friend, George Walters, who thinks it can be rebuilt for a thousand dollars. He paid me $500, which is a friend’s price; I had turned down that from a stranger. I felt I should get $1000 or even $1500 for it. But I'm glad to have it out of the way.

  So, I will be coming in to London on BE 553 on Monday 30 November at 0925, and then leaving at 1100 on PAA 101 for NYC, and on straight through to Honolulu, arriving 2315 their time Monday. Joy indicated you might try to make it to the airport, so I will come out through customs at the BEA arrival place, and we can make our way over to the Panam on our own, or I will on my own if you do not make it. Actually it is sort of foolish to make that long trip for such a short time, and I was not even going to tell you about my coming through until I talked to Joy. So, if is a not feasible I will certainly not expect you.

  I will probably not be returning to Europe until next summer (1965) and will look forward to spending a bit more time with you then. Any chance of seeing you in California this spring?

  Much love to all of you, and I regret not being able to stop over long enough to see your house. The prospect of spending a lot of time, a month or more, has always been appealing, but it must await major revisions of my work life. I'm too involved in private practice to take a lot of time off, much as I'd like to visit Papeete, Hong Kong, Bangkok and Katmandu, as well as London, Vienna and Rome. I keep trying to get myself retired, but no luck so far.

  Love,
