Loyal Strawberry
Growers This Year

Joe Cernislia, president Of
American Foods, Inc, sellers
OF strawberries in the area
and throughout the Eastern
half of the United States. told
group Of about 100 growers
that he was looking for loyal
berry producers at a meeting
in the Tabor City school cafe

the season and end the season
with us. It's the only way to
market berries in an ORDERLY
manner and know from day 20
day about what volume and
quality to expect" he said.
Cerniglia pointed out that
last year, a year OF short sup
ply of Strawberries, that some
growers left American Foods
in Tabor City to sell on vari-
Gus auction markets. He said
that in year of short supply.
auction markets might very
well have days and seasons in
which they paid more for ber-
ries that American Foods
earned the grower. But that
growers who stuck with the
method of selling done by A
merican Foods year in and
year out would exceed the
prices paid by most auctions.
He said that Louisiana this
year would harvest about 5000
acres of berries as compared
with some $500 a year ago.
And that if they enjoyed and
good growing season, this
would be a year of plenty in
the strawberry business and
that auctions systems would
fave difficulty competing with
American Foods prices.

with US to sell every berry
throughout the season. Those
who do will be our preferred

First, the American nuclear
stockpile is monstrous CDR.

A, 900 megatons).
Second, it only takes about
l21a megatons to kill each

man says.
Finally, we could kill all of

pile, allowing for SO per cent
failure to deliver warheads, or
78 times if you want to overdo
the job with a one-megaton
bomb on each city.
Lapp More Conservative
DR.. Lapp, more conservative
ly, says our overkill quotient
is only Is.
But both agree the United
States could cut its big-war
force to 200 secure ICBMs 1--WE
are now building toward more
than 1000, not to count many,
many hundreds Of bombers and
smaller missiles) and remain
safe.
Pentagon officials say these
calculations are mere mental
gymnastics having no relation
ship to actual defense prob
lens.
The overkill group starts
with assumptions that no re-
sponsible official can accept as
necessarily true:
That the only wartime OBJ
jectives of American forces
would be to destroy enemy
cities; that this country could
strike first; that nuclear weap-
ons will never be needed to
help defend our allies; that de-
terrence will work forever SO
we can ignore the problems OF
war; that we should defend
ourselves only with big, dirty
nuclear weapons.
What is more, the popular
estimates of the American nu-
clear stockpile, including the
estimates of DR.. Lapp and Mr..
Melman, are several times too
high.
Here is how Pentagon plan

to a token or to zero. This
would reduce nuclear weapons
to a handful. which is his
stated goal, but would also
make it impossible for this
country to maintain a nom
nuclear force as strong as the
one we had before Korea.
If the Melman thesis is so
full of holes, why did the
President seem to indorse the
overkill argument?
The answer, according to
officials, is that he was car
ried away with his arguments
for the test ban and that he
was talking metaphorically.
For instance, 1t can be said
that the world possessed enough
weapons to kill everyone even
before gunpowder was invented.
The weapons were hands.

"Overkill"-the charge that

Iessly monstrous mountain OF
atom bombs that can kill all Of

over--is haunting the Pentagon
again.
The issue has flared and died

front again.
The issue was carried to the
public by Senator McGovern
Democrat Of South Dakota, ir
a recent floor speech billed al
the first of a series.
The professor is Seymour
Melman, professor of industrial
management engineering al
Columbia University. He says
in a widely circulated pamphlet
"A Strategy for American
Security" and in congressional
testimony that this country ha:
enough nuclear explosives tt
kiln Russia rs to 1850 times
over.
Saving Of Billions
This being true, he says. WI
could cut our defense budget
from the present $50 billion tt
$34 billion, thus maintaining
our present forces without en-.
larging them, and be at least
as secure as we have been.
Alternatively, he says thu
United States could "plan" Il
kin its enemies only once in {
war and reduce our nationa
military budget to a mere So:

put it:
II feel like Copernicus trying
to explain to his friends that
the earth really revolveS around
the sun while the friends smile
quietly and say. 'Ah. but I car
see with my own eyes that the
sun goes around the earth.
Cite Speed
Mr.. Melman and his support
ers fail to see any illogic ir
their overkill story. In fact
they are even more sure Of
their position following the
Kennedy speech justifying the
test-ban treaty.
I'm an age when both sides
have come to possess enough
nuclear power to destroy the
human race several times over,
the President started hi'

etc., etc."
If the President believes We
can kill not only our possible
enemies but the whole human
race several times over, ther
surely the Presidents defense
budget can be cut a few times

Here is their basic reasoning
as presented by Mr.. Melmar
to congressman and Senators
and as described in detail BY

Rusk and Khrushchev
Chotted Only Briefly

| treaty, there should be some
kind of respite long enough for
the psychological effect of the
treaty to sink in before tack
ling further issues. Moreover,
Mr.. Rusk, had made it plain,
to the Russians as Mr.. Harri-
man had two weeks earlier,
that the United States is not
ready yet to negotiate other
problems until it has consulted
its allies and until the Senate
has ratified the test-ban
treaty.
There are other cogent rea-
sons why Mr.. Khrushchev is in
no hurry to rush negotiations.
He figures favorable public re-
action to the test ban will
gradually melt some of the sus-
picion and hostility towards
the USSR in America and
that this, in turn, will render
the United States Government
more tractable in dealing with
the Russians on various issues
including trade, and that
therefore time Is on his side.
Moreover Soviet policy plan
ners are in the midst of an
agonizing reappraisal forced
upon them by the dramatic
widening of the rift with Red
China. which is by far Mr..
Khrushchev's major headache.
The extent and course of fur
ther moves towards rapproch-
ment with the West will de-
pend largely on how the So
viets decide to handle the Chi
nese dilemma and the dust has
by no means settled.
Can Reds Really CO-Exist?
Finally there's also the prob
lem Of a built-in ambiyalence
in Mr.. Khrushchev's peaceful
coexistence policy-namely just
how peacefully can professed
Communists coexist with capt.
talists? How far can friendly
relations be carried without
compromising ones Commu-
mist principles? Absurd as this
may sound to Western ears,
it's a very real problem to
Soviet leadership, which is
sensitive to Peking's criticisms
on this score.
In an effort to provide the
answer, they've come up with
the formula of "no-coexistence
of ideology," which likewise in
wolves glaring inconsistencies.
This compels the Kremlin to
feel its way cautiously in seek
ing closer ties with the United
States, which as recently as
December. 1860. was described
as "the main enemy" in a
declaration Of the world Com
munist movement, signed,
among others, by Soviet party
leaders.

The fact that. despite the

Soviet belief that, following

It would be unfair, never
