Re Evening Standard article of 7 September 1949 by BR, "Russia Turns Back the Clock". BR comments on a passage quoted by Wakefield: "An atomic bomb made on Marxist principles would probably not explode. For, after all, Marx's science was that of a hundred years ago. For those who fear the military power of Russia, there is therefore some reason to rejoice in the muzzling of Russian science. But from the human, as opposed to a military point of view, it is a disastrous abomination."
