high ranking officers who

Most Of these have been fred
by the new regime merely
because they attained their
rank under Rhee.
Some $50 generals have

reasons than that they re-
ceived their appointments
under the old regime. The

When American Gen. Palmer
protested that these changes
would impair the fighting
ability Of the ROK army, ne
was denounced by the news
papers in Seoul as well as the
government as interfering in
the internal affairs Of Korea.
Our South Korean friends
seem to forget the fact that
We are responsible for the
defense Of Korea. The new
government does not seem to
have the stamina to resist
either the students extrava-
CANT demands or the pres

want all their seniors fred

and also because they want
quicker promotions for them

the Joint Chiefs Of Stan,

army chief Of stad, concern

cannot and should not be

discipline rules above all. He
was forced to resign.
It is this picture which

brother In the same war.
The discussion centered on
the horrors Of war, and the
plain implication was that
Senator Kennedy would
spare the Nation a repeti-
ton Of such q tragedy.
The Democratic nominee
sat at q small table: having
tea with the three elderly
ladies In an informal. honey
atmosphere. The women
participants didn't have
much to say except to re-
veal at the outset that they
had lost their sons in the
war. It was q dramatic set
ting, and the Kennedy man
aeement certainly took adj
vantage Of the emotional nn-
dertones In order to help the
Democratic nominee get
votes.
In the Tuesday night show,
the technique was very much
the same. but the participants
were different. A retired man
and his wife sat at q table
in what appeared to be their
home and discussed with SEN
ator Kennedy the cost to the
husband of something around
$500 for medical treatment
for q broken hip. Senator
Kennedy pointed out that
this was q pretty heavy bill
to pay and that, under his
administration. social security
would take care Of such
things through . tax which
would cost only 3 cents q day,
or about $ll . year, In social
security payments.
The Congress had this
question up at the last ses-
sion, and many Democrats as
well as Republicans voted
against it on the theory that
medical care can be provided
best by direct Federal ap-
preparation each year to the
States. and that the cost Of
such care for those who are
unable to pay would be
negligible compared to the
large cost Of the social
security tax, which. 1t was
argued. everybody would pay
but from which only rela-
lively few would benefit.
Other arguments made
against the proposal are that
many people are well able to
afford medical care because
