course, that there are no such
things; so that "thin” fate is
simply a mental problem.)
It is easier for the idealist
who shares Mr. Smith's moral
ity: you simply consult your own
peculiar mind and enslave or
burn "people" who disagree with
it, regardless of the number.
Moral Obligation
And so, because the NLF
rebel, according to Mr. Smith,
is "lighting to become some face
less speck in the faceless masses
of some faceless 'people's' state”
(though the rebel is not requir
mg that of Mr Smith), and be
cause that is immoral according
to Mr. Smith, the ''representa
tives” of Mr. Smith’s "ideals"
and "moral principles” have a
moral obligation to shoot him.
If that is u strange morality,
the patent contradiction be
tween its ends and its means is
even more bewildering: 1, for
one, have never seen any face
less Viet Cong but those whom
Mr, Smith's "representatives”
have divested of their faces with
American grenades.
There is of course no question
that HO per cent of a population
can be morally wrong, and no
one would admit that sooner
than the leftist who is now pro
testing.
A majority of Germans were
wrong when they allowed the
Nazis to lead them into whole
sale murder; a majority of
Americans are wrong in tacitly
supporting Johnson
Many Be Wrong
Tile Vietnamese may conceiv
ably be "wrong" in preferring
a lowly can of soup and the
NLK to Mr. Smith's morality
and the YAK (though I do not
think so), but unlike the plain
crime of the Americans and the
Germans, the "wrongness" of the
Vietnamese concerns only them
selves: it does not entail the
armed invasion of California or
saturation bombing of our coun
try aide.
(l,ct us lie thankful that the
New Left does not share Mr
Smith's morality: I have not yet
heard one of them, for instance,
propose that Itussia bomb the
industrial complex of the United
States because a majority of
Americans are wrong.)
Purged of the tainting influ
ence of people, and translated
into reality, do you know what
Mr Smith's morality proposes?
Hather than allow 80 per cent
of the Vietnamese determine
that they will have a govern
ment which Mr Smith does not
like, and in order to save the
handful of Vietnamese who
would even understand (much
less agree with) what goes on
in Mr. Smith's mind, his moral
ity proposes genocide.
No Contradiction
Do we not perceive a contra
diction and a lie in the dogma
of those who preach the victory
of their own "abstract values,”
"ideals," and “morals” over
“wicked materialists" who do
not share them—when concealed
behind the rhetoric, behind the
pose of spirituality, we always
see, grossly material, the ugly
muzzle of a gun? Where, pray
tell, is their faith in ideas?
Though you would never be
lievc It from what they write,
their war is not being fought
with ideas, morals, or abstract
values. If it were, tf our bomb
ers were dropping nothing more
substantial than copies of None
Dare Call It Treason, if our
soldiers were merely struggling
with the "mental or moral well
being” of the Vietnamese, I am
sure there would be no marchers
in the street, nor letters from
Mrs. Aberle.
But the idealism which Mr.
Smith propounds is being en
forced as materially as it pos
sibly could be—with lead, na
palm, Lazy Dogs, and human
blood. And material human be
ings have to guide the bullets,
drop the napalm, aim (more or
less) the Lazy Dogs, and shed
the blood. Abstract values will
not win your victory; you must
have bodies.
The linal question is: Whose?
Is it not wondrous how often
it happens that the contempt of
the idealist for the body is so

thorough that the physical tasks
necessary to the winning of his
Holy War are regularly dele
gated to the body of someone
besides the idealist?
Representatives Are
And so it is with Mr. Smith:
"At this moment, my material
body is not in Viet Nam. But
the representatives of my ideals,
and of my moral principles are."
1 think that is a fair summary
of the morality proposed. The
material minded leftist feels im
pelled to put his body where his
convictions are. The spiritual
minded rightist, with his body
here and his mind in Viet Nam,
feels free to sneer at the leftist
for his petty materialism. And
the bewildered draftee is com
pelled to put his body on a
battlefield, where there is noth
ing to bo seen of the idealist but
his "ideals” and "moral prin
ciples." When Mr. Smith looks
at this last phenomenon he no
doubt set's “The Rights of Indi
vidual Men.”
Mr. Smith says that "if the
time comes when (he) must
join them there,” he will go.
The time is long past, for not
even that vain gesture could
any longer convince us that
there is a shred of morality in
what he advocates. And I think
we must conclude in any case
that his "mental well-being” is
dearly bought.
The speeches do not bother
Mr. Smith because he does not
hear them. (
The people are not counted
by Mr. Smith because he cannot
see them.
The corpses do not horrify
Mr. Smith because they are not
his.
