While Our Rome Burns

This world has embarked upon a
year which will witness rapid and omi-
nous rise in the capacity Of mankind for
mutual humiliation. The United States
and Russia. in particular. will strive
desperately, as probably they must. TO
achieve balance II not an advantage
In the new" weapons-missiles armed
with nuclear warheadS, with which each
could largely destroy the other. Sup
pose this effort is crowned with sue
cess" in 1858, or in 1859? Where, then,
will the world find itself?
In our opinion, assuming that no
effective political agreement is reached.
this world win be in a frightfully dan
gerous position. 1t will be forced to rely
on the deterrent effect Of missile stock
piles, and yet. as these Stockpiles grow,
they will offer diminishing assurance
Of security. This is so because mount
ing threat of devastating surprise attack
will demand diffusion Of control over
the capacity for retaliation. five put
our hope in the deterrent value of nu-
clear-armed missiles. then we must ac-
cept the need for instant retaliation In
means a matter Of seconds. or at most
q few minutes. There will be no time
for councils Of state Those in actual
control of the weapons at scattered
points will have to be given authority
to act Immediately. and this diffusion
Of authority inevitably will increase the
danger.
This means that the outlook for our
civilization, our Rome. Is burning. And
yet all one hears is the sound of the
fiddles Mr.. Khrushchev renews his APP
peal for summit" meeting between
the United States and Russia. He says
that in this way most of the worlds
problems can be solved, and that the
Soviet Union Is not interested in any
other approach. Responding. Mr. Eisen-
hover says he trusts the New Year will
bring better understanding and gives
assurance that the United States will
extend every effort to that end" Mr..
Dulles says that. first, there must be
concrete evidence, whatever that may
mean, of Soviet desire to negotiate in
good faith. A dispatch from London
tells of British sentiment to the effect
that summit meeting would be too
risky since failure would increase
world tension and shake public conf
dence. The West German President calls
for return to traditional diplomatic
channels. And so 1t goes
Does all Of this mean that a proce-
dural argument. difference over which
course offers the most promise. is going
to bar the path to any new meeting, any
settlement? Must the world leaders go
on endlessly with this tactical debate
while the ornaments pile up and the
peril rises? 1t is useless to address an
appeal TO Mr.. Khrushchev. But one may
address a question to our own leaders.
If Mr.. Khrushchev will not meet on any
other basis, why not sit down and talk
with him, face to face? There are risks,
of course. Nor does past experience en-
courage much hope for worthwhile
results. But are the risks involved in
trying this, even II 1t fails, as great as
the risks involved in doing nothing? We
suggest again that our Rome is burning.
II the fire is not put out 1t may consume
