main and that the President
elect, too, would rather not
undertake personal negotia-
ton. He would probably visit
with the heads of other
states, especially on occasions
of a ceremonial nature when
agreements already reached
are ratified.
Dean Rusk served as an
Assistant Secretary of State
during the Truman admins
tration. He has been out of
the Department of State for
eight years. He Is not familiar
with the details Of the conf
DENTAL negotiations that our
Government has had with
other governments through
out the world. The same is
true Of the men now chosen
to be his immediate subordi-
nates-Chester. Bowles as
Undersecretary of State, and
Adlai Stevenson as Ambassa-.
dor to the United Nations.
1t will take many months
for the background to be
learned and for all the infor-
nation which the CIA has
collected to be absorbed. One
would think that somehow
the American system of gov
ernment would before this
have been modernized to per-
NIT an experienced official to
be Undersecretary of State,
so that he could make it his
career and be able in a non-
partisan way to serve any
administration that comes
into power. In other demo-
cratic countries they have
such permanent undersecre-
taries. and it makes the tran
sition less risky. Dean RuSk
wrote in that same article
several months ago:
"A presidential system can
not easily adjust to an inter-
regnum; a nation moving
with such great mass and We
locity needs the engineer at
the throttle"
The quotation was in ref
erence to the need for a Pres
ident to stay on the job in
stead Of travelling constantly
to foreign countries, but the
advice applies equally to a
system Of government which
gives a new Secretary of
State a little more than 80
days to learn the inside story
of what's really been going
on in the "cold war"

DORIS FLEEsoN
Choice of Rusk for Secretary of State
Is Viewed as Bold Moneuver

In his choice of Dean Rusk
for Secretary of State, Presi-
dent-elect Kennedy has
moved to rid himself of con-
troversy in a difficult area
where he plans personally to
lead.
Mr.. Rusk Is a technician,
not q politician, and though
he was able. loyal and firm
as an Assistant Secretary to
Dean Arheson in the Truman
administration, ne was not
even In the top rank Of tech
nicianS. That Is why, de.
spite his service during an
intensely controversial era,
he was able to achieve the
non-controversial aura which
has now propelled him to the
top.
With rare boldness, Sena-
tor Kennedy has put two Of
the Nations leading spokes-
men In foreign affairs-Adlai
Stevenson and Chester
Bowles-under the younger
man who is nowhere in the
world as well known as they
are. It was a take 1t or leave
it proposition, and they took
it.

With enrollments larger
each year and with waiting
lists longer and longer, Amer
ican colleges and univer-
stiles are straining every re-
source to provide faculties
and facilities necessary to
meet the demand for college
degrees.
It was recently estimated
that in a few yearS-as soon
as the present generation of
elementary school children
reaches the college age
about one-third of America
will have a college educa-
ton.
But how educated are the
educated? There are disquiet-
ing indications that what we
are accomplishing is more
education and less civiliza-
tion. In many respects, grad
yates of high schools and
secondary academies so years
ago were as we'll or better
educated than are many of
the products of our sprawl
ing. diploma-mill universities
and colleges today.
Admiral Hyman Rickover,
caustic critic of the products
being turned out by our COL
leges and universities, has
plenty Of company for his
views among professional
educators. But the educators
are seldom in an independ-
ent-enough position to state
their views and to sound their
warnings in public.
1t is a fact that, somehow
or other, and whatever the
flaw in the system that
makes it possible, there are
many thousands of men and
women, holding university
degrees. who are unable to
use their own language with
competency. There are thou
sands who have but the most
vague and sketchy knowledge
Of history, of international
affairs, of geography.
With all the recent EN-.
phasis on science and tech
nology. the teaching Of the
humanities and the libera,
arts is everywhere being SUBJ
ordinated. even neglected. We
are rapidly approaching tht
point where we will have
legions of engineers and tech
nicians-which are certainly
needed who will certainly
have no firm idea as to the
reasons they are doing what
they do.

ever-present threat of oblit-
Grafton.
Defense against aggres-
sion, of course, is inescapable.
Certainly we must keep up
our nuclear fences so long
as the threat of surprise at
tack and subjugation to to-
talitarian power exists. There
is no alternative except alb
ject surrender. Yet the whole
situation has become a two
edged sword. for, so long as
We feel the necessity for en-
phasizing scientific concen-.
tration on weapons of de-
struction, we are continuing
to de-emphasize and to weak,
en- the things that make our
free society worth defending.
Somehow there ought to be
a way to strengthen our de-
fenses in more than a mill
tary way. Military might in
the past has often been de-
feated and wiped out by su-
perior moral fiber, by the
might of free men defending
their freedoms. How do we
know that our increasingly
technical and scientific em-
phasis in education today
may not seriously damage
our ability to know why we
arm to defend ourselves.
And knowing is not merely.
to be able to repeat slogans
or parrot cliches and high
sounding phrases. 1t must be

viously sensed quickly the
way Senator Kennedy's mind
was running and gracefully
bowed to the inevitable.
A reputation for a certain
ruthlessness will not hurt the
President-elect in his deal
ings with Congress and his
party. His gamble is rather
that Mr.. Rusk Is almost a
stranger to him, nor has
Kennedy had any practical
experience in forcing impor-
tant men to serve under jun
ior officers.
In short, Senator Kennedy
has employed a kind of
political arithmetic in this
instance. adding assets, sub
tracing liabilities and divid-
ing loyalties without much
regard for the feelings Of
the men involved.
He is entitled to choose
his administrators in his
own way, and he will be
judged by the results he gets.
Obviously there is not going
to be any rush toward the
summit or any dramatic,
worldwide travels; Mr.. Rusk
is not the type, and Senator
Kennedy will not have the
time.

Mr.. RuSk will not assume

public Glamour about his

misunderstanding are multi
piled by the seriousness of
the issues and the power of
those present"
The foregoing views were
set forth before the breakup
of the summit conference at
Paris last May. The ideas are
not new. They were ex-
pressed in these dispatches
again and again since 1855.
when the first summit con-
ference at Geneva was being
played up as the best way to
deal with the Communist
regime in Moscow. But the
arguments in opposition
were lost in a wave of COM
mentS from the leading
Democrats on Capitol Hill,
as well as some Republicans,
who insisted that negotia-
ton was imperative and that
anyone who refused to meet
with the top officials of other
governments was politically
on dangerous ground. for it
presumably meant he was
opposed to making peace.
Mr.. Eisenhower followed
the trend of public opinion
as he said repeatedly that he
would go anywhere in the
world to advance the cause
of peace. The fallacy was
that the device really helped
build up the prestige Of Nj
kita Khrushchev, and didn't
help to bring peace. The
Soviet Premier was merely
afforded an opportunity for
propaganda and theatres.
Repeatedly it was asserted
in government circles here
that there would be no sum-
NIT conferences until ade-
Quate preparation had been
made. This was the view-
point Of the late John Foster
Dulles, but the critics shout
ed him down and forced the
present administration to at
tend summit conferences,
even when there was no
proof in advance that any
thing would be agreed upon
at such meetings.
The writings of Dean Rusk
may or may not represent
the. views Of Mr.. Kennedy,
but there Is reason to believe
they are acceptable in the
