National Defense

For the first time in our Ma
tion's history he have consist
emily maintained in peacetime,
military forces OF a magnitude
sufficient to deter and If need
be to destroy predatory forces
in the world.
Tremendous advances in stra-
tegic weapons systems have
been made In the past eight
years. Not until 1853 were
expenditures on long-range bal
listic missile programs even
as much as a million dollars
3 year; today we spend 10
times as much each day on
these programs as was spent
in all Of 1852.
No guided ballistic missiles
were operational at the begin
ming Of 1858. Today many
types give our armed forces
unprecedented effectiveness.
The explosive power Of our
weapons systems for all pur-
poses is almost inconceivable.
Today the United States has
operational Atlas missiles which
can strike a target 5000 miles
away in a half-hour. The
Polaris weapons system became
operational last fall and the
Titan is scheduled to become
so this year. Next year. more
than a year ahead of schedule,
a vastly improved ICBM. the
solid-propellant Minuteman, is
expected to be ready.
Squadrons Of accurate inter-
mediate-range ballistic missiles
are now operational. The
Thor and Jupiter IRBMs based
in forward areas can hit tar
gets $500 miles away in 1e
minutes.
Aircraft Improved
Aircraft which fly at speeds
faster than sound were still
in a development stage eight
years ago. Today American
fighting planes go twice the
speed of sound. And either
our B-58 medium-range JET
bomber or our B-52 long-range
jet bomber can carry more
explosive power than was used
by all combatants in World
War II-Allies and Axis COM
bined.
Eight years ago we had nc
nuclear-powered ships. Today
40 nuclear warships have been
authorized. Of these, IA have
been commissioned, including
three of the revolutionary
Polaris submarines. Our nu-
clear submarines have cruised
under the North Pole and cir
cumnavigated the earth while
submerged. Sea warfare has
been revolutionized. and the
United States is far and away
the leader.
Our tactical air units over
seas and our aircraft carriers
are alert; Army units. guarding
the frontiers of freedom in
Europe and the Far East. are
in the highest state Of readi-
ness in peacetime history: our
Marines. a third Of whom are
deployed in the Far East. are
constantly prepared for action;
our reserve establishment has
maintained high standards of
proficiency, and the ready re-
serve now numbers over 2.5
million citiZen-soldiers.

ganlzation. has twice been i'm
proved and the line of COM
mand has been shortened in
order to meet the demands of
modern warfare. These major
reorganizations have provided

Government Finance
And Administration

HItO AOBtbIbIISSBOI
In January. 1858. the con-
sumer's dollar was worth only
SO cents in terms of the food,
clothing, shelter and other
items it would buy compared
to 1899. Today, the infla-
tionary spiral which had raised
the cost Of living by 36 per
cent between 1946 and 1852
has all but ceased and the
value Of the dollar virtually
stabilized.
In 1854 we had the largest
tax cut In history, amounting
to STA billion annually, of
which over So per cent went
to individuals mostly in the
small income brackets.
This administration has di-
rected constant efforts toward
fiscal responsibility. Balanced
budgets have been sought when
the economy was advancing
and a rigorous evaluation of
spending programs has been
maintained at all times. Re-
sort to deficit financing in
prosperous times could easily
erode international confidence
in the dollar and contribute
to initiation at home. In this
belief, I shall submit a bal
anced budget for fiscal 1862
to the Congress next week.
There has been a firm policy
OF reducing Government COM
petition with private enterprise
This has resulted in the dis
continuance of some 1000
commercial industrial installa-
tions and in addition the cur
tailment Of approximately $50
industrial installations operated
directly by Government agen-
cies.
Surplus Disposal
Also an aggressive surplus
disposal program has been
carried on to identify and dis
pose of unneeded Government
owned real property. This has
resulted in the addition of a
substantial number of valuable
properties to local tax rolls,
and a significant monetary re-
turn to the Government.
Earnest and persistent at
tempts have been made to
strengthen the position of State
and local governments and
thereby to stop the dangerous
drift toward GENERALIZATION of
governmental power in Wash
ington.
Significant strides have been
made in increasing the effec-
tiveness of Government. I'm
portant new agencies have been
established, such as the De-
partment Of Health. Education
and Welfare. the Federal Avia-
ton Agency and the National
Aeronautics and Space Ad-
ministration. The Council of
Economic Advisers was recon-
stituted.
Postal System
The operation of our postal
system has been modernized to
get better and more efficient
service. Modernized handling
of local mail now brings next
day delivery to 1853 million peo-
pie in our population centers,
expanded carrier service now
accommodates 9.3 million fam
lilies in the growing suburbs,
and IA million families have
been added to the rural delivery
service. Common sense die
tates that the postal service
should be on a self-financing
basis.
The concept Of a trained and
dedicated Government career

ernment responded to the re-
quest of the friendly Lebanese
government for military help
and promptly Withdrew Ameri-
can forces as soon as the situa-
tion was stabilized.
In 1858 our support Of the
Republic Of China during the
all-out bombardment of Que
moy restrained the Communist
Chinese from attempting to
invade the off-shore islands.
Although, unhappily, Com
munist penetration of Cuba is
real and poses a serious threat
Communist dominated regimes
have been deposed in Guate-
mala and Iran. The occupa-
ton Of Austria has ended and
the Trieste question has been
settled.
Despite constant threats to
its integrity. West Berlin has
remained free.
Advances Noted
Important advances have
been made in building mutual
security arrangements-which
lie at the heart of our hopes for
future peace and security in
the world. The Southeast Asia
Treaty Organization has beer
established; the NATO alliance
has been militarily strength
ened; the Organization OF
merican States has been
further developed as an instru-
ment Of inter- american CO.
operation: the Anzus treaty has
strengthened ties with Aus
tralia and New Zealand. and q
mutual security treaty with
Japan has been signed. In addi-
ton, the CENTO pact has beer
concluded. and while we are
not officially a member of thi:
alliance we have participated
closely in its deliberations.
The Atoms for Peace" pro-
posal to the United Nations led
to the creation of the Interna-
tional Atomic Energy Agency
Our policy has been to push for
enforceable programs Of in
spection against surprise at
tack, suspension of nuclear test
ing. arms reduction. and peace
full use Of outer space.
The United Nations has beer
vigorously supported in all oi
its actions, including the con-
demnations Of the wholesale
murder of the people Of Tibet
by the Chinese Communists and
the brutal Soviet repression OF
the people Of Hungary, as well
as the more recent U. N. actions
in the Congo.
The United States took the
initiative in negotiating the sig
nificant treaty to guarantee
the peaceful use of vast Antarc-
tica.

USIA Praised

The United States Informa-
ton Agency has been trans
formed into a greatly improved
medium for explaining our pol
icies and actions to audiences
overseas, answering the lies of
Communist propaganda, and
projecting a clearer image of
American life and culture.
Curtural. chronological and
educational exchanges with the
Soviet Union have been en-
couraged, and a comprehen-
sive agreement was made which
authorized, among other things,
the distribution of our Russian
language magazine Amerika
and the highly successful
American exhibition in Moscow.
This country has continued
to withhold recognition Of
Communist China and to op-
pose vigorously the admission
of this belligerent and unre-
pentant nation into the United
Nations. Red China has yet to
demonstrate that it deserves to
be considered a "peace-loving"
nation.
With Communist imperialism
held in check, constructive &C
tions were undertaken to
strengthen the economies of
free world nations. The United
States Government has given
sturdy support to the economic
and technical assistance activ-
tiles of the U. N. This country
stimulated a doubling Of the
capital Of the World Bank and

Koussevitsky Concert
Attended by Widow

Itch. Harriet Wingreen at the
piano played a good deal of
highly improbable music with
uncanny accuracy and with fine
feeling for ensemble.
OF all the works played the
best effect was obtained in the
Riegger concerto, in which, for
once, the players stopped try
ing to be refined and exquisite
and gave forth a genuine, full
sound. The duo for flute and
oboe was also warmly ap-
plauded, as were the little
pieces by the 18th Century
writer of method books, Michel
Corrette. served up with sour
and spicy harmonies by Darius
Milhaud.
The one composition received
with some reserve was the
Dialogues for clarinet and pi-
ano by George Rochberg. These
are uncompromisingly severe
little essays in serial technique.
with all the characteristic
splintering of the melody over
several octaves. Very likely the
piece would become more in
telligible with repeated hear
ings, but my considered opin-
ion is that it would take a lot
of wooing to make the audience
love it.
