Dr. Lee A. DuBridge, Presidential Science Adviser, said at NAS dinner in Washington, D.C.: "The relations between science, technology, government and the various elements of our society are enormously complex.

Clearly we all-politicians and scientists-must find ways of adapting ourselves to a new era-an era which began . . . really on Hiroshima day in 1945." (Text)
