Association of Scientists for Atomic Education, Inc.
Association of Scientists for Atomic Education records, 1946-1948.
Correspondence, minutes of meetings, and financial and membership records of a group devoted to educating the public to the uses and dangers of atomic power.
The Association of Scientists for Atomic Education (ASAE) was incorporated on December 16, 1946, in Washington, D.C., the three incorporators being William A. Higinbotham, Joseph H. Rush and Mary Bernard. The purpose of ASAE, as their title suggests, was education rather than direct political agitation. And in this respect, its intention was to supplement the work of such sister organizations as the Federation of American Scientists, the National Committee for Atomic Information and the Emergency Committee of Atomic Scientists, whose chief concern was to influence government policy. The ASAE worked in close co-operation with the Federation of American Scientists, the National Committee for Atomic Information and similar organizations, many of its leaders also being active in these groups. The ASAE flourished throughout 1947 and 1948, although constantly plagued by financial difficulties, after which time record of it ceases.
