Atoms for Peace Speech by
President Eisenhower(NOTE Full version is
available on the OPD Website at
www.ans.org)United Nations General Assembly,
December 8, 1953 Madame President, Members of
the General AssemblyPartial Text It is not
enough to take this weapon out of the hands of
the soldiers. It must be put into the hands of
those who will know how to strip its military
casing and adapt it to the arts of peace. The
United States knows that if the fearful trend of
atomic military build-up can be reversed, this
greatest of destructive forces can be developed
into a great boon for the benefit of all mankind.
The United States knows that peaceful power from
atomic energy is no dream of the future. That
capability, already proved, is here now - today.
Who can doubt, if the entire body of the world's
scientists and engineers had adequate amounts of
fissionable material with which to test and
develop their ideas, that this capability would
rapidly be transformed into universal, efficient
and economic usage? To hasten the day when fear
of the atom will begin to disappear from the
minds of people and the governments of the East
and West there are certain steps that can be
taken now.
