Detente's Effect Cloudy

No one can say for certain now
what, If any. effect the budding
detente between the Free World
and the Soviet Union, as mani
tested in the nuclear test agree
ment, will ultimately have on
NATO and the resolve Of its Euro
pean members for a role in q
nuclear deterrent.
But the interest in the MILF
has not faded in Government
circles in Washington, Bonn or
Rome. London is another matter:
the Tory government is burdened
with domestic problems and pre-
fers a non-commital stance at
this time.
Mr.. Kennedy discovered for
himself the German and Italian
enthusiasm on his recent trip to
Europe. In the communique he
and Chancellor Adenauer signed,
the two. leaders pledged to use
their best efforts to bring the
MILF into being. Prime Minister
Leone of Italy later pledged his
support and even the Italian So
cialiSt Leader, Pietro Nenni, goes
along with the idea.
There are two more develop
ments which may be viewed as
signs of progress:
. Admiral Claude v. Ricketts,,
Vice Chief Of Naval Operations
and the Nays top expert on the
surface Polaris force, will soon 60
to Italy to brief military and
civilian officials. He has already
been to Bonn and London on
similar missions and has con-
WINGED both the German and
British navies on the military
feasibility of the project.

Tying Down Jets

Considering that Peking's
armed forces total 2.6 million for
all of its military requirements,
the force immobilized in the Foo
chow complex takes on increased
significance. It must have prior
claim on first-line troops, armored
equipment and aircraft. Tor in
stance, of the about $500 Rus
sian-made jets in the Red Chinese
Air Force, close to 1,7O0 of them
are in the Foochow area. This
includes some late model MIG los
and Russian n-28 Jet bombers.

900 firSt-line Chinese Communist
soldiers and airmen are pinned
down in the "Foochow complex"
This is the Red Chinese defense
area opposite Taiwan, Quemoy
and Matsu.
Ironically, it's because Mao does
not believe that the United States
would prevent Chiang's return to
the mainland that the Reds must
keep this large force immobilized
against the continuing threat.

Still Very Much Alive

And yet, despite the snide and
savage cartoons. the condemna-.
ton by a corps of columnists here
and abroad, the MILF proposal is
still very much alive. What is
more, it appears to be adding
flesh and muscle to its bones.
Where did the MILF idea come
from and what does it involve?
Tt had its beginning in the
waning days of the Eisenhower
administration, in December, 1860,
when Secretary of State Herter
advanced the idea of a multi
lateral, mixed-manned, sea-based
missile force for NATO. President
Kennedy picked up the ball and
after exhaustive studies by the
United States Navy, it was decided
last summer that the best mode
for the force-at the outset, at
least-would be that Of a surface
wafship. .,.
The United States and its allies
today are talking in terms of rs
surface ships-of the merchant
man-type, but genuine warshipS,
painted and numbered as such
each of which would be armed
with eight Polaris AS missiles.
The total force, therefore, would
number 200 Polarises. The A-3,
sometimes called "Super Polaris,"
is expected to be operational
aboard American submarines next
year. 1t has a range of 2,750
statute miles, which means that
every land target in the world
would be in reach of its hydrogen
warheadS.
The Composition of the Force
Approximately 10000 officers
and men would man the ships
and supporting bases used by the
MILF. They would be under the
overall command of the Supreme
Allied Comm ander, Europe

Lyman L. Lemnitzer, an American.

; Riqhts Bills

Civil rights legislation took
its first formal step in the new
House today along a parlia-
mentary road full of pitfalls
and probable delays.
Judiciary Committee Chair
man Celler, Democrat of New
York, sponsored three broad
scale" bills and announced that
committee hearings would start
as soon as possible this month.
Mr.. Celler's bills were:
/. An omnibus civil rights
measure extending the life of
the Civil Rights Commission
two years beyond its scheduled
expiration next September 80:
authorizing the Attorney Gen.
eral to institute Federal court
civil injunction suits to prevent
denial of civil rights on
grounds of race, creed, color.
religion or national origin; and
prohibiting arbitrary and dis
criminatory" li0eracy tests for
voting.
2. A bill requiring every
school board operating a racial
ly segregated public school to
adopt a desegregation plan
within six months and show a
"first-step compliance" by Sep
tember, 1864.
3. A fair employment prac-
tice bill to provide admins
trative and court remedies for
persons complaining of job
discrimination as a result of
race or color. This bill would af-
feet any business or labor un-
ion employing more than SOL
persons.
Mr.. Celler noted that some
what similar measures failed to
get very far in the previous
Congress. He declared that
there must be no let-down in
the effort to supplement Fed
eral court decisions and Justice
Department enforcement of ex-
isting civil rights laws. He ex-
planned that his bills would
further civil rights on a broad
scale" and provide additional
weapons against denial of civil
rights.
Prospects for House action
on any bills this year seemed
dim. The Judiciary Committee
itself and the Education and
Labor Committee showed no
great enthusiasm last year for
additional civil rights legisla-
ton.
