Defense and IcBM'

Your September 4 editorial,
Defense and the ICBM,"
expresses concern that "this
weapon Of almost indescrib-
able deadliness" may make
obsolete many of the most
advanced ''man-piloted"
weapons upon which We de-
pend.
More than 1000 years ago,
on seeing a dart fired by q
machine brought from Sicily,
the Spartan King Archidamus
exclaimed: "Oh, Hercules,
the valor o; men is at an
end" But he was way ahead
Of the story. It is only now
that We are faced with the
possible obsolescence of hui
man qualities, such as cour-
age. skill and patriotism, in
warfare. The most viriie
nation might not be able to
Withstand another inferior
to it in all natural qualities,
If the latter had some deci-
sively superior technical APP
pliance. Barbarism, with the
superior weapon. can win
over civilization.
Is it time to discard the old
rule: Don't fire until you
see the whites Of their eyes,?
Not yet. Henry A. Kissinger's

eign Policy" argues that If we
are to keep our powder dry,
