U.S. Secretary of State Mr. John Foster Dulles. Change... from colonialism to freedom. ‘The United States supports political independence for all peoples who desire it....’ ‘We provide technical assistance ... so that others may learn how to help themselves achieve a better life.’ Change... in the unexplored polar regions. ‘The Arctic now offers the new routes whereby men can quickly establish contact with each other.’ On 5 August 1958 the American atomic-powered submarine Nautilus with 116 men aboard travelled beneath the polar ice cap, and was continuously under water for a total distance of 1,830 miles. Change... in the world of physical power. ‘We continue to develop ... the peaceful uses of atomic energy.’ At Columbia University, New York, a patient lies beneath the theatron, a powerful machine which uses radioactive cobalt for the treatment of cancer. Change... in the firmament above us. ‘The United States has begun planning for the use of the newly-penetrated realm of outer space....’ The dramatic launch of the ‘Pioneer’. This moon-probe vehicle released by America reached an unprecedented height of 79,000 miles. Change... from anarchy to order. ‘The United States has endeavoured, by its own example and by its expositions in the United Nations, to emphasise the importance of law and justice.’ United States Information Service ``` Devanagari text read from the image; a few conjuncts may be mis-rendered where the print is small.
