The article presents an overview of the April 1957 issue of "The Nation." It is ironic that eighteen of the leading nuclear physicists of West Germany should be the first group of important nuclear scientists in any nation to declare publicly that they would refuse to cooperate in any way in the production, testing or use of atomic weapons. In 1950, a group of American nuclear scientists urged Washington not to go ahead with a "crash program" on the H-bomb until further efforts had been made to negotiate an agreement with the Muscovites, but they did not announce their refusal to participate in nuclear-weapons program.
