spected Chief OF Staff, General

poor second to the Soviet Union"
Thurmond declared. "He tells us
that while war is not regarded as
a probability within the next II
months, it is regarded as a posi-
bility."
In order to prepare for this ''pos-
sibility," Thurmond demanded that

ment's notice. I'VE will not have
months and weeks in which to pre-
pare; we will have only hours and
minutes" he said.
With the present missiles such az
atomic bombs and guided rockets,
Thurmond continued, "our nation
will be shattered at a moments
notice in the event OF war; In or
der to prevent that, Thurmond sug-
gested that industry and housing
