On August 6th, 'Hiroshima Day', the Committee of 100 arranged to have two meetings: a ceremony in the meeting of laying a wreath upon the Cenotaph in Whitehall and, in the afternoon, a meeting for speeches to be made at Marble Arch. ... We wished to remind people of the circumstances of the nuclear bomb at Hiroshima. ... To many people, however, to bracket the deaths at Hiroshima and Nagasaki with the deaths of those who fought the Japanese in the Second War was blasphemous.
