Reflections

Joys and Sorrows

"The harsh and tragic fact is that of the whole population, children are paying the most heavily for the Cold War." Naturally, we want our children to live and mature in a world at peace, a world in which their talents and those of all other children may fully flower, a world made worthy of children. Substantiating its disclosures with careful documentation, The Game of Death presents an inside account of the atomic bomb drills for school children, their causes and emotional effects. It discusses the shocking and dangerous conditions prevalent in the schools as a result of the armament program, and exposes a nationwide plan to indoctrinate children and convert schools into "instuments of national policy." It warns of the acclimatization of children -- through comic books, TV, radio and motion pictures -- to concepts of violence, horror and sudden death. It reports the beginnings of "loyalty oaths" for parents. Finally, it projects action Americans must take to protect the welfare and happiness of their children from the dangers that beset them on every side as a consequence of the Cold War.
