Necessity of News Curbs Cited

been noted recently, but no
such clear expression of
American fears has been dis
closed as is contained In the
testimony OF Assistant Sec
rotary Martin.
It may well be asked now
whether the Soviets really
believe that the United States
will actually stand up in q
crisis. The testimony by As
Sistant Secretary Martin
raises the question as to how
far the American Govern
ment was really prepared TO
go last autumn. Such an Of
fetal statement of American
fears and qualms as this
testimony reveals should
never have been released for
publication.
Perhaps the most signifi-
cant statement Of what
American policy ought to be
has just been made by James
A. Farley, who served as post
master general in the Roose-
welt Administration. In a
speech In Chicago q few days
ago. he defined a resolute
policy very succinctly. He
said:
II expect to be called an
alarmist and even a war
monger. My answer is to
point to the map. Each time
that we seek to disengage
them (the Communists) they
confront us nearer home. To-
day they are on our front
doorstep. In my opinion that
menace must be removed. To
remove 1t, World War III
may have to be risked-and,
for myself, / am prepared to
take that risk. But that deci-
sion is not mine. It rests with
the President Of the United
States"
When o prominent Demo-
crat like Mr.. Farley-a for
mer chairman Of the Demo-
cratic National Committee
urges a Democratic Presi-
dent to adopt q resolute pol
icy, it Is an indication that
Americans generally are not
influenced by the speculative
and theoretical debate about
whether a firm course will
lead to war. For the expert
ence of the 1930's proves that
an appeasement policy and a
lack Of firmness is the surest
way to war. A potential en-
envy misconstrues hesitancy
for weakness and then. when
he takes a chance, believing
that his aggression win not
be repealed, war comes any
way.

that Of the generals and ad-
mirals.
There is no conspiracy"
between the men in uniform
and the men In Congress.
But there Is undoubtedly
some working purpose to cut
Secretary Mcnamara down
to size.
At last. the whole question
comes to this: Is civilian

Is 1t to be abridged in the

profoundly dangerous notion
that. in these days of cold

Irresistible force and Inn
movable object are meeting
in q great and melancholy
contest now drawn taut be-
tween the strongest member
of the Cabinet, Defense Sec
rotary Robert Mcnamara.
and the strongest men Of
Congress.
Somebody will be hurt;
and this is a pity. But If the
principal victim is Mr.. Nc
Namara. 1t will be q very bad
thing, indeed.
For the real issues lying
between the devoted Robert
Mcnamara and the equally
devoted men Of Congress are
infinitely bigger than even
the chief present symbol of
their dispute, the multi-bil-
lion-dollar contract now be-
ing investigated in the Sem
ate.
APPLY enough, this inquiry
is being conducted by one Of
the best groups In Congress,
the Senate Permanent In
vestigations Subcommittee
headed by Senator John L.
Mcclellan Of Arkansas. His
panel is doggedly examining
why Secretary Mcnamara let
a contract for the all-pur-
pose Tx warplane to Gen.
eral Dynamics Corporation
rather than to the rival Boe-
ing Company, which had
offered what seemed on its
face to be a lower bid.
With equal doggedness.
Mr.. Mcnamara Is defending
that decision on the ground
that, taking everything into
consideration, 1t was his
judgment that General Dy-
namics could do the job in
the least time, at the least
risk, with the best result in
weaponry and, in the end,
also at the least cost.
The rights and wrongs,
In sheer terms Of immediate
dollars and cents, are quite
beyond any independent
evaluation by this columnist
and may forever be. For by
their very nature such vast
OUTLAWS by the Pentagon in
clude such immense and
varied factors as to make
any outside judgment as
difficult to grasp as a waver-
ing moonbeam fitting across
the ceiling Of a shattered
room at midnight.
Other and more important
things, however, can be said
with complete confidence.
Involved here is a challenge
to Secretary McNamara's ul-
innate civilian control over
the Pentagon by uniformed
officers with pipelines to
Congress who beyond ques-
ton are far less interested in

Search for Secrets of Cosmos

Maybe there's q little moss
on Mars. But 1t is highly I'M
likely that among our suns
nine planets and 81 satel-
lites there exists a climate
suitable for q high order Of
life.
But wait. There are more
than a billion stars in our
own Milky Way. Most. II not
all of them, must have their
own, planets although they'd
be far too small for us TO
detect. 1t would be ridiculous
to assume that our own in
consequential solar system
would be unique in the firma-
ment.
Fred Hoyle, the British
astronomer, guesses that by
the law Of averages there
must be no less than 100000
planets in the Milky Way
that must duplicate almost
exactly the conditions Of
temperature and atmosphere
found on Earth.
And the Hale telescope has
shown that in space there
are millions Of points Of light
that we used to assume were
stars which are, in fact,
galaxies themselves, each with
their millions or billions of
stars. What chance remains
that Earth-Man Is the nobl-
est thing in creation?
Primitive man found his
gods in fire and thunder. The
Greeks appreciated bigger
mysteries and they imagined
