Ways to Curb Peking

Desire to isolate Red China
and help inhibit her atomic de-
velopment was certainly one i'm
portant reason why Russia &C.
cepted the test-ban treaty, dip
lomats here agree. Now, Moscow
clearly is casting about for other
ways to curb Picking.
1t sometimes is said, in an eff
fort to put the problem in per-
spective," that although Peking
may be able to detonate an atom
ic device in the near future, she
will not have a sophisticated de-
livery system and hence,

This is undoubtedly true, but
it is not as realistic or as COM

of Red China's first nuclear
bomb is likely to be immense, es-

Mon S Limits

The mind is easily wearied and
easily frightened; but there in no
limit to the pictures it makes; and
toward those pictures we stumble.
1 have often remarked that
whereas men say there is a limit
beyond which a man may not
run or swim, may not raise a
tower or dig a pit. 1 have never
heard it said that there is a limit

Britain that anything which
conceivably could spread atomic
know-how across the Rhine is
political dynamite. Some think
there is enough feeling, both on
the Laborite left and the extreme
Tory right, to overthrow the

On Pleasure

Everything great in the world
comes from neurotics. They alone
have founded our religions and
composed our masterpieces. Never
will the world know all it owes
to them nor all that they have
suffered to enrich us. We enjoy
lovely music, beautiful paintings,
a thousand intellectual delicacieS,
but we have no idea Of their
cost, to those who invented them,
in sleepless nights, tears, spas
modic laughter, rashes, asthmas,
epilepsies, and the fear of death,
which is worse than all the rest

Passive Resistance:

passive resistance.
Gandhi credited the method to
an essay on Civil Disobedience"
by somewhat eccentric Yankee
who was jailed in 1845 for his re-
fusal to pay his Massachusetts, poll
tax.
Henry David Thoreau's reasons
for going to jail were his disap-
proval Of the war with Mexico and
slavery at home.
The results of his protests sup
port the intellectuals' favorite idea
(often challenged that: I'VE are
the movers and shakers Of the
world forever it seems"
a Natter OF Influence
1t would be a mistake to give it
any weight in the imbalance that
caused the Civil War. A much less
philosophical work may have tip
ped the scales - Uncle Toms
Cabin"
But in this century Thoreau's
words helped create a nation Of
400 million people and the extent
of the changes they helped it to
bring about in this country have
yet to be realized.

an early expression of Prince
Peter Kropotkin's philosophical
anarchy. 1t opened with:

countries, but also to reward a
post-Adenauer trend in Bonn
toward the United States and
away from President de Gaulle.
Washington firmly believes the
plan is sound and constructive:
and much of NATO appears to
be going along.
The likelihood therefore is that
Red China will smash her way
into the nuclear club by second
story tactics, and West Germany
will be ushered into an annex
specially built for the purpose.

has been argued, of course, we
should go ahead and trade If
others do so. Well, I think we
ought to make our own policies
for ourselves.
@. General, another thing that
is discussed in terms of East-West
cooperation is a joint trip to the
moon. You have said it would be
foolish for us to spend tens of
billions to be first on the moon.
Does it make any more sense for
us to spend less money and get
there at the same time as the
Russians?
A. This would take away the
appearance Of a stunt and a race.
I don't see the need for such a
race. To me this Is Just putting
our substance into something that
has no particular value to us as
a people or to the world in
general.
If there were some joint ven
ture, it probably would not only
be much cheaper economically,
but it would take away this pres
sure of the race. OF course, this
race was proposed right after the
Cuban fiasco. 1t looked a great
deal like a very fine way to get
Cuba off the front page.
On Frances Course
@. Sir, do you find any cause
for concern in the independent
course that France seems to be
taking now in nuclear testing,
the Common Market, and NATO?
A. I am somewhat disappointed
about it, of course. I am dis
appointed because it looks as If
in France it has been decided
that there is no immediate pros
pect of global trouble, certainly of
military kind, in any important
part Of the world. Consequently,
they apparently have decided
they can afford to take a COM
petitive rather than a co-opera-
tive position and attitude toward
a great many of their neighbors
and even ourselves.
Now I think this is a mistaken
notion, but we must not forget
one thing. France from the 18th
century has been a very proud
nation. She had her setbacks in
1870 and in 1910. I think she was
determined to get back into her
place in the international sun.
believe this is a notable and
proper ambition, but I would like
to see it done with a little bit
more consideration for the people
who in the case of real trouble
would have to be again the allies

Russio in Opposition

The MILF is highly controver-
sial. Russia. for one, strongly
opposes it, believing-or profess
ing to believe-that it would bring
West Germany closer to an in
dependent nuclear capability,
rather than further away.
Russia also may be concerned
about the increment, however
marginal, which the MILF would
provide to the Vests overall
atomic might. She may be worried
about the reaction of Red China,
which would have a new argument
to use in clamoring for Soviet
Chinese nuclear cooperation.
Britain also is cold to the plan,
despite London's decision last
week to join in the planning.
The British want very much to
cultivate the EaSt-West detente,
and are disturbed by the dis
ruptive effect an MILF might have
on Soviet attitudes. Britain has
not forgotten the w. smash-up.
Moreover, there is so much

vate respect for the law, so much
as for the right. The only obliga-
ton which I have a right to as
sumo, is to do at any time what

"All men recognize the right Of
revolution; that is, the right to

On Restraining China

The only real counterbalance
to an atomic armed Picking on
the warpath would be a joint
determination by Washington and
Moscow to restrain her. Neither

be able to do it alone, If the
others intentions in any impor-

of France. So I think we ought
to act among ourselves a little
bit more as close allies rather
than trying to exploit each other
in any way.

@. General. have you thought
of any way there might be better
relations between the United
States and the government we are
supporting in South Wet NamP
A. This thing has become acute
in the past few years. I know
President Diem and what his
ideas and purposes were some
time back. I admired him very
much. He took courageous posi-
ton back in 1855. but since that
time things have happened and I
would not have a real suggestion
to give in that particular area.
@. His sister-in-law, Nine. Ngo
Dinh Nhu, is coming to this coun-
try for a three-week speaking
tour. Do you have any thought as
to the proper way for the Amer
lean people or the Government to
react towards her?
A. We ought to listen carefully
and make our own judgments. BY
no means do I think there should
be anything that could smack of
discourtesy. On the other hand,
would hope that she would not
come over here to stir up trouble.
I am quite sure she won't.
They are quite smart people,
you know, and I think she is
going to try to put her case, the
case Of Diem and his family, in
the best light they can. So
would just say listen with cour-
teSy and let it go at that.
Disappointed in Aid
@. Why is it that the American
people so often seem disappointed
by the outward results of the help
this country has given such coun-
tries as South Wet Nam and the
Dominican Republic?
A. These problems are imbedded
deeply in human nature. am not
sure that we should expect too
much. There has been a lot Of
talk about the SOB billion that
we have given away since World
War II. But I wonder If anyone
ever thinks of this: What would
this world be right now If we had
not given that money away?

The next morning his aunt
Maria, disguised by wrapping a

the Jail to pay the tax. The jailer,
who lived to the end of the
century, remembered that Thoreau
was mad as the devil" He went

He probably wrote the essay
