What Is a 'Technicality9?
The jurisdiction of the Supreme Court is in
danger of attack again by an organization as
powerful and as responsible as could be-invoked
the American Bar Association. A committee
report favorably if somewhat belatedly pre
sented by the association's board of governors
and due to come before the House of Delegates
at this week's meeting in Chicago carries weight
because the bar association has not lent itself to
indiscriminate attacks on the court. Indeed, the
board of governors last May denounced the Jen-ner-Butler
court "reform" bill as "a threat to the
independence of the judiciary." This was one
reason why that bill was tabled in the Senate
last August by a vote of 41 to 40.
The report now submitted pays tribute to the
Supreme Court and "an independent judiciary"
as "the ultimate guardians of the Bill of Rights
and the protectors of our freedom." It goes on,
however, to charge that "many cases have been
decided in such a manner as to encourage an in
crease in Communist activities in the United
States."
TT ADDS the disquieting indictment that "our
' internal security has been weakened by tech
nicalities raised in judicial decisions which too
frequently in the public mind have had the effect
of putting on trial the machinery of the judicial
process and freeing the subversive to go forth
and further undermine our nation." The principal
citation here is usually that of Steve Nelson, con
victed of seditious activities under a law of the
State of Pennsylvania and given a new trial on
the theory that sedition had already been taken
care of by Federal legislation.
The bar association report suggests a number
of issues that have worried persons who see
Communists under every bush. The report sug
gests that states should enforce their own laws
against sedition, which would take care of the
Nelson case ; that the Secretary of State be given
broader power to deny passports to persons he
considers subversive; that Federal employees in
"nonsensitive" agencies be put through the same
doctrinal wringer as those in the "sensitive"
agencies: that the Smith Act be broadened to
remove the distinction between "theoretical advo
cacy" of sedition and
action," and that the charter of the Committee
on Un-American Activities be more "precisely
worded" obviously a response to the Supreme
Court s requirement that a witness needn t
answer questions unless they are "pertinent" to
the purpose of the inquiry.
THESE suggestions are not necessarily criti-
cisms of the court. In some cases, indeed, the
court itself has expressed a desire for more
precise expressions of
tions.
We do believe, however, that an assembly of
distinguished lawyers should think twice before
condemning "technicalities" as of small impor
tance. Lawyers use in their own pleadings all
the technicalities they

Senator Neuberger Returns
It is good to know that Senator Richard L.
Neuberger, after a long and courageous fight
against cancer, is back in the Senate. Soon after
his election in 1954, Mr. Neuberger became
known as a staunch advocate of increased feder
al support for medical research. More than ever
now, quite naturally, he desires to "stand in the
Senate as a symbol of medical research." That is
a worthy and appropriate goal.
This is the land -where billions are spent an
nually for cosmetics, liquor and tobacco while
medical research goes begging for funds. The
Senator from Oregon is entitled to full support in
his effort to do something about it. St. Louis

In Like a Lamb
If the old superstition is correct, we're in for
a doozy of a storm on March 31.
For never have we seen March "come in" so
lamb-like as it did yesterday.
The weather bureau reports the maximum
temperature Sunday was a balmy 65 degrees. The
sun was shining. In our. neighborhood the birds
were twittering just as though it were May, not
March, with winter still showing on the calendar.
MOT only was it warm and sunshiny, but there
was enough of a breeze "light airs" would
be a mariner's poetical description to blow away
most of the smoke and haze which too frequently
prevent one from seeing the hills across the valley.
Everyone, it seemed, took advantage of the
weather, donned sport shirts or light blouses, and
drove around enjoying it.

Matter of Fact
AGAINST TWADDLE
Offutt Air Force Base, Oma
ha, Neb. - This is a place no
thinking American can visit
without strong
national feel
ing. Simple as
a place, it is
dreary. Until
just the other
day, it had no
role in his
tory. But now
it is the nerve
center of the
4n-!nh aisod prouaesi, most
powerful, most complex, and
most efficient fighting force
that this republic has ever
brought together.
It may seem very odd in
deed to use the word beautiful
in connection with the Strate
gic Air Command. . But al
though great aircraft have re
placed the lances and the gon
falons, this S.A.C. has some
thing of the beauty of "an
army with banners." It his an
other beauty, too, as a vast,
marvelous, superbly function
al product of men's minds, as
perfect as it is terrible. And it
has still another beauty, as
the sword and buckler of the
imperilled cause of freedom.
. It is necessary to say these
things because it is also neces
sary to face an ugly fact con
cerning S.A.C. The fault does
not belong to the men of
S.A.C. But the ugly fact re
mains: the once-sure power of
the American deterrent is now
quite rapidly declining.
THE causes of this decline,
anrl iha rpmpHiAC fliat ran
be applied, will be examined
in subsequent reports in this
series. What must first be
done is to try to dispose of the
false and self-serving argu
ment that is being used to
justify the decline in S.A.C.'s
deterrent power.
The argument is often heard
nowadays in the highest quar
ters in the Pentagon . and at
the National Security Council.
It takes the form of what is
called the theory of "minimum
deterrence." This theory is
based upon a cruelly ironical
feature of modern strategic
weapons systems. In brief, a
few big dirty bombs will kill
a great many millions of the
enemy. But very considerable
numbers of bombs, extremely
precisely laid down, are need
ed to destroy the complex,
many-targeted structure of the
enemy's nuclear striking pow
er. It is easier, in other words,
to massacre half the popula
tion of another nation, than it
is to prevent that nation from
striking back in its agony.
Many fewer aircraft or mis
siles are needed for the first
purpose than for the second. It
is cheaper, more budget-balancing,
and in every way more
attractive to the peculiar cast
of mind that regards the rich
est nation in history as too
poor to defend itself.
SUCH, then, are the fairly
macabre origins of this
theory of " minimum deter
rence." The theory itself may
be briefly stated. If the enemy
strikes first with his rapidly
growing power, he will de
stroy most of S.A.C. But he
cannot count on destroying all
of S.A.C. The S.A.C. remnant
will be too small to touch the
still-intact structure of the en
emy's striking power. But this
remnant can still be directed
at what are euphemistically
called "political and demogra
phic targets." If the enemy
knows that S.A.C.'s remnant
will be used in this manner, he
will not dare to strike first.
Thus minimum deterrence
will be achieved at minimum
cost. Q. E. D.
There are two fatal defects
in this grisly theory. In the
first place, it glosses over
what may be called the prob
lem of Marshal Biriusov, the
artillery officer who heads
the Soviet Air Defense Com
mand. For 13 years, this sep
arate Soviet command has ab
sorbed between 18 and 20
per cent of the gigantic Soviet
defense budget. What then can
Menace
5-2
By Joseph Alsop
Marshal Birivsov reply, if he
is told, "Our first strike will
kill all but a remnant of
S.A.C, and your only task is
to repel the wretched rem
nant." He must surely reply
that the assignment will be
easy. The S.A.C. commander
himself, Gen. T. S. Power, has
rightly pointed out that the ef
fectiveness of our deterrence
depends upon what the enemy
thinks about it, and not on
what we think about it.
YET the theory's second de
fect i s even more fatal.
To see what tills defect is, you
must imagine the position of
the President of the United
States after the enemy's imag
ined first strike. The Presi
dent's own structure of retal
iatory striking power will lie
in ruins. The remnant that re
mains will not be enough to
cripple the enemy's structure
of striking power, which will
still be untouched and ready
to strike again. But his rem
nant will still be able (if Mar
shal Biriusov is wrong) to kill
several millions of the Russian
people.
Will the President then use
his remnant, as the much tout
ed minimum deterrence the
ory would require him to do?
Or rather, how could he use
his remnant in this manner,
unless he was both irrational
and inhuman?
There would be no means to
halt the enemy's second and
third strike. Most of our peo
ple, remember, would still be
alive and healthy in no dan
ger, after an enemy first strike
solely aimed at military tar
gets. The price to be paid for
a few million Russian deaths
would therefore be many more
millions of American deaths.
Would any but a madman or
der such an exchange, with no
true military purpose?
The answer is obvious. The
theory of minimum deterrence
is not common, everyday
twaddle. It is time to stop
twaddling, and to start talk
ing in hard terms about the
hard requirements of true na
tional security.

raged long

diating th e i r
wate r f r o n t

sometimes has
its uses to the
free world.
At Geneva since last Oct.
31, the United States, Britain
and the Soviet Union have
been conferring for a "con
trolled ban" on nuclear wea
pons tests. At every point
when it has appeared that
some agreement might be in
sight, Soviet spokesmen have
broken up the game with
quite impossible demands and
accusations.
Their unreasonableness has
served them right-and served
us well. It has been almost
providential for us, if such a
term can be used in such a
connection. For the longer
such an' agreement is defer
red, the better off the United
States will be. And if it never
comes at all, short of a genu
ine and general disarmament
running all the way down to
infantry divisions, we shall
be better off still.
IN A WORD, if we are to be
saved from entering into an
arrangement of the greatest
danger to our security, the
enigmatic idiocy of the Rus
sians themselves may well be
the saving force.
Nearly everything in the
atomic-hydrogen field lies -and
necessarily so - under the
cover of hush-hush. More
over, to seek to understand
what is going on even in a
crime rate in any community.
They do not mention of the
impact of firearms regulation
on crime.
A further study of the prob
lem brings out more against
such legislation and it is urg
ed that objections be made to
the state legislators.
Most of us aim to promote
public safety, uphold law and
order and are for national
defense. The present method
of registering a gun with the
sheriff's office to carry loaded
in a car for personal protect
ion seems satisfactory to me.

Defends Carter Choice
To the Editor: In recent
weeks I have read with inter
est the various comments re
garding the appointment of
Sprague Carter of Pendleton
as director of Selective Serv
ice. I would praise his appoint
ment on the basis that he is
(1) a civilian and (2) that he
has had prior experience on
the Umatilla County draft
board.
My husband was the State
Director of Selective Service
during the years of World
War II, and I believe that I
have a better-than-average ac
quaintanceship with the prob
lems and functions of that of
fice. I personally feel that this
selection of a civilian director
was wise. During the early
days of selective service some
of our finest citizens served
on the county boards. Mr.
Carter, like all the others,
served without pay. If this
makes a man a "politician" I
am in favor of more "politi
cians" in government.

day or even in the first month
of the changeover in controls.
The belief here is that
Khrushchev is playing ' for
higher stakes' than Berlin
alone.
The real objective, so this
theory goes, is the permanent
division of Germany. With the
German question settled to
Soviet taste, the Western
world must face the fact that
history has been altered and
Russia's recognized sphere of
influence pushed out beyond
her own borders halfway
across the face of Western
Europe.
With the Russian rear pro
tected and East Europe sta
bilized, Khrushchev then is
free to press his seven-year
plan and eventually his am
bitions for world domination
through economic force alone.
But Khrushchev does not
want a war because the
strength of his plan depends
upon continued Soviet indus
trial growth.
So the immediate future -again
according to the theory
here will be a mixture of
Soviet threats and promises.
S. WHITE
high-policy way requires a
layman to traverse a vast and
forbidding swamp of techni
cal jargon. All the same, in
quiry here establishes some
central, and most unpleasant,
facts.
For months at Geneva the
West actually has been run
ning a terrible risk that the
Russians would suddenly be
come sensible enough to go
along with some so-called
"reliable" test suspension. If
they should, the consequences
to the West could not be less
than damaging, and they
might well be catastrophic.
"Damaging" would be the
word should we then take
the first of two alternatives -that
is, hurriedly to back out
at the last minute from such
an agreement. In this case, of
course, we should suffer a se
vere worldwide propaganda
defeat. But "catastrophic"
would be the only word
should we decide to stay with
the agreement.
"T'OR THIS would mean that
the free world, which is
vastly outmanned and out
gunned by the Soviet bloc,
would be on the way to los
ing the one form of superior
ity which has thus far kept
an uneasy balance of mili
tary power. This is our atomic-hydrogen
superiority. Take
away this edge and the mas
ses of Russian divisions, the
"conventional" forces of war
that still can kill a great
many people, would over
whelmingly outnumber those
of the West.
It would be much as though
an inland sea power in the
old pre-atomic days had nego
tiated itself into a pojition of
agreeing to fleet limitations
while its larger land antagon
ists remained free to call up
unlimited numbers of troops.
Even a two-year halt to nu
clear testing would tend to
disperse the irreplaceable
technical forces we now have
working in the weapons field.
Too - and this is much grim
mer we have in fact already
made enormous mistakes in
certain of our supposedly
foolproof scientific assump
tions underlying dete c t i o n
methods. No man can possibly
say for certain that any fu
ture detection method pro
claimed as absolutely un
reachable might not quickly
turn out to be quite some
thing else again.
.
"TONALLY, it can be stated
" responsibly that American
leaders know perfectly well
that any suspension agree
ment would involve an ob
vious, an undeniable, mili
tary risk in exchange for
highly generalized possible
gains. These possible gains
are called "imponderables" -meaning,
maybe, some ad
vance in the worthy purpose
of easing cold-war tensions.
But it cannot be denied that
the risk is all too ponderable,
indeed. The burden of proof
lies with staggering and fate
ful weight upon those who
would suspend, tests. They
have nowhere near proved
their case. They have proved
their great decency and their
good intentions.

Congress, At Odds
On Money, Pools
By FRANK ELEAZER
Washington - (UPD- A former
State Department official, now
safely off the public payroll,
recently told Congress to its
face what he claims a lot of
diplomatic types have been
saying behind its back right
along.
The quotation, approximate
ly, was that congressmen are
a bunch of clowns.
Charles B. Marshall, who
indicated he didn't necessar
ily share the view himself,
testified before a House For
eign Affairs subcommittee the
other day.
In the opinion of State De
partment bureaucrats, he said,
"what emanates here (from
Congress) is a sort of neces
sary nuisance, never to be
understood, to be tolerated
mainly because there is no op
tion, and to be appeased by
minimal accommodation wher
ever necessity leaves no way
out."
No Swimming Pools
Well, let's face it. It does
look like the State Depart
ment, in its dealings with Con
gress, sometimes gets the
burnt end of the stick - like
right now.
Another subcommittee, in a
hearing unrelated to the one
at which Marshall appeared,
is considering some of our
problems abroad.
With ambassadors and the
like all over the world, they
need houses and offices for
one thing. The department
hopes to build and buy them
for $100 million during the
next five years.
The Foreign Affairs Com
mittee, in general, knows this
has to be done. And it plans,
eventually, to approve a bill
to allow it.
But first, Rep. Clement J.
Zablocki (D-Wis.) wanted to
know if any swimming pools
and tennis courts were plan
ned. "They are not," snapped
Loy Henderson, deputy under
secretary of state, "and that
I regret!"

East German government of
fices. The last and logical step
would be formal recognition
of an East German govern
ment permanently split from
the West.
The " fear here' is that
Khrushchev may begin to be
lieve his own propaganda and
make a mistake leading to
World War III.
Among West Germans there
is also the fear that the
United States neither has
made its determination plain
enough to the Russians nor
made it clear to the people of
the United States that war is
a possibility.
But there is no lack of un

is a determination that no

will place his stamp on an
Allied cargo.

body complains. But when the
State Department suggests
them, it is accused by Con
gress of fostering riotous liv
ing at public expense.
"And, if you don't mind my
saying so," he went on, "even
some of the congressional
buildings have swimming
pools!"
Rep. Wayne L. Hays (D
Ohio), who was presiding, then
proved once more that the
State Department can't win.
He said on a visit to Khar
toum, in the Sudan, when the
mercury stood at 120, he
found the ambassador was
away and slept in his house.
He was happy to learn that
the place had a pool. But he
was shocked to see it wag
empty.
"They said it was cracked,
and that the repairs would
cost $600," Hays recalled. "I
said, 'Get it fixed. If I come
back here next year and
there's no water in that swim
ming pool there's going to be
some heads rolling'."
