This heightens the possible
ity of Red successes at some
future time because when Gen.

the scene a vacuum is bound
to result.
Typical Of the dictator, he
has trained no one to succeed
him. Members of his family
occupy numerous public posts
but no one takes them seriously
as leaders Of the country.
His brother is president of
the country in name only. His
favorite son, Rafael. r., is the

United States and stirred ur
an international incident by
flunking out at the Army's

developments. Many Ameri-

Picking a new chairman first
appeared to be a simple task. The
word went out to party leaders
that Thurston Morton was Presi-

the job, and the Kentuckian de-

But as Senator Morton few back

his selection.
Representative Simpson Of
Pennsylvania, House Republican
campaign chairman, based an OBJ

Morton, who planned to retain
his seat in the Senate, would be
only a part-time chairman. He
said he spoke also for Senator
Barry Goldwater of Arizona, the
party'S campaign chairman in the
Senate.
Senator Morton's greater handi-

with the party's liberal bloc in

that we would fight only if at
tacked-only if our primary effort
to prevent war should fail.
The word deterrent" has from
the beginning of NATO been as
sociated with the task of prevent
ing war Here we place our faith
in two major elements-the retail
atory or heavy strategic forces and
the Shield forces. Both these ele-
ments are backed by the clear and
manifest determination to defend
ourselves as required.
The bulk of the retaliatory
forces lie outside my command.
These consist of the United States
Strategic Air Command, the
United Kingdom Bomber Com
mand and certain naval forces as
well. Let me stress one point: All
our planning in Allied Command
Europe is based on the assumption
that these powerful forces are, and
will remain, fully effective. BY
their ability to inflict unacceptable
destruction, they deter an agrees
sor from starting a major war by
deliberate decision.
There still remains the danger
of local or limited war by accident
or by error in Judgment on the
part Of an aggressor. Therefore,
any valid defensive NATO strategy
must also have the following OBJ
jectiveS: First, 1t must force a
pause, a break in the continuity of
any incurSion or probing opera
ton that might occur--a time for
the aggressor to weigh carefully
the consequences of his action.
Second. it must, during this pause,
force him to make conscious and
deliberate decision; to go to war
or not go to war. Third, in max
ing this decision, it must compel
him to weigh the whole cost. He
cannot be allowed to make cheap
decision. or achieve a bargain
rate" success.
The Shield forces which I COM
mand bear the responsibility for
this vital second element of the
deterrent. They man the forward
areas of NATO, and include army,
navy and air forces in reasonable
strength, effectively deployed and
supported by the most modern
weapons. BY their presence, the
Shield forces give strength and
flexibility TO Western policy. Policy
that is not backed by strength
soon becomes non-existent. If
that strength consists only of the
heavy strategic forces-vital as
they are to our overall defense
1t is strait jacket policy Of all
or nothing. The alternatives to
some local incursion or foray
would be the dread response Of
