Skill and Courage Needed
Three of the columnists who appear regularly
on this page (Alsop, Lippmann and Jenkins)
plus several writers of Communications today
ponder the Cuban situation.
Their concern is justified, for the Cuban crisis
is the most hair-raising one we have gone through
since the Korean War.
Their views vary, just as the views of ordi
nary Americans everywhere vary. They run the
gamut from the placard-toting "No War Over
Cuba" picketers, to the "It's about time" reaction
of many who have been advocating intervention
for months.
$
IF THERE can be said to be a national consen-
sus, however, one would have to say that it is
in support of the President. This support, again,
stems from a variety of reasons.
Our own support is predicated on two facts,
the first that the President and only the Presi
dent has available all the facts on which to base
a decision plus the responsibility of making that
decision ; the second that there is a sharp distinc
tion, in this nuclear-missile age, between weapons
of defense and weapons of offense.
This distinction has been explained over and
over, but its significance has eluded many. For
a wealthy nation of more than 180 millions, most
powerful militarily in the world, to crush little
Cuba on the basis of tanks, trucks, short-range
missiles and technicians, who by no stretch of
the imagination could threaten us,' would have
been the height of folly, and would have held
us up to contempt throughout the world.
HOWEVER, when incontrovertible evidence is
ni'oconlnrl In sjhnuf (hut U'nunnllS filliwhlp of
hemisphere-wide destruction are being emplaced,
that's something else again, and justifies us in
taking the action we have.
Risky? Of course it's risky. It's a risky world.
And the fact that missiles can be tipped with
nuclear bombs makes the risk of an entirely dif
feren order of magnitude than it was prior to
1945.
Yet, to us, it seems the situation left us no
alternative, and that if we are to observe "a
decent respect to the opinions of mankind" we
must act as courageously and forthrightly as wc
know how, and publish before the world what
we are doing and why.
IN THEORY, we strongly support disarmament,
suspension of nuclear testing, a world ruled
by law rather than brute strength.
That day may yet come. But because we have
found it impossible to trust our adversaries, the
day is yet to come when we can make any real
progress toward those desirable ends.
Meanwhile the balance of terror the deadly
checker game with the future of mankind at
stake continues.
Let us play it as courageously and skillfully
as we know how. E.A.
One Mans Victory
The other day we received in the mail an
envelope containing a little pamphlet entitled
"Federal Trade Commission Guides for Shoe
Content Labeling and Advertising, adopted Oc
tober 2, 19(52."
On the front of it a note was written in long
hand. It said "Victory after 5 years. (Signed)
Wilbur."
Thus Wilbur (Jai'dner proudly but quietly
signaled the completion of a long battle, one
which led him to voluminous correspondence
with Senators and Congressmen and government
officials, with moguls of the shoe manufacturing
industry, with shoe repairmen throughout the
world, and to international honors for his long
and ultimately successful struggle.
IT WAS five years ago that Wilbur Gardner;
became irritated beyond bearing at the use,
without notice or warning, of sub-standard ma
terials in the shoes brought to him to be repaired
in his little shop on East Main street. He decided
to do something about it, personally.
Letter after letter, petition after petition
flowed from his typewriter. Gradually he gath
ered support, some of it from powerful organi
zations. But he met strong opposition, too, from
many shoe manufacturers who did not want to
be put to the bother of telling people what mater
ials they were using in making shoes, and who
feared economic loss if forced to do so.
Undeterred, Wilbur Gardner continued his
one-man campaign, although by this time he
had hundreds, perhaps
land adherents.

THE NEW Guides were published in the Fed-J
eral Register on Oct. 12, and become opera- j
tive 90 days thereafter.
In general, thev provide that manufacturers'

Aimp iisiun nuvir al
ready been summarized in
this space; but it now appears
that these were not, after all,
the dominant reasons. In
Cuba, Nikita S. Khrushchev
had in fact laid a vicious mili
tary trap for President Ken
nedy. All other considerations
were dominated by the need
to spring this trap while it
was still relatively harmless.
To understand the trap's
nature, it is necessary to un
derstand the existing balance
of nuclear striking power -
the delicate balance of terror
that preserves freedom. For
the Soviet trap was designed
to upset this balance deci
sively. .
IN BRIEF, the Soviets do not
now have what some of the
experts call "free first, strike
capability," because they do
not have enough long range
missiles to cover the essential
targets in this hemisphere.
They would have had this
kind of capability if they had
gone all out to build lCBMs
at the lime when a missile
gap was very sensibly feared.
But at that lime, three or
four years ago, they sought
to economize by limiting their
quantity production of mis
siles to MRBMs and IRBMs -ballistic
missiles of 1,100 and
2,000 miles range, respective
ly, in the current models.
Thus they could threaten all
European targets, but could
not seriously threaten the U.S.
Contrary to Soviet expecta
tions, this MRBM-1RBM threat
to Western Europe failed to
procure a surrender at Berlin.
Quantity production of Soviet
lCBMs was thereupon order
ed. But almost simultaneously,
after the election of President
Kennedy, the U.S. long range
missile program was greatly
stepped up.
IN LONOI range missiles, the
current balance is therefore
almost even; and within 18
months, the II S. will have no
less than WHO operational
K'BMs in hardened launching
pads. Tit is me.ins that in IH
mouths the U.S. will have a
close - to - invulnerable deter
rent, al least until another
great change in the griz.ly
missile art again alters all
the equations.
One can hardly doubt that
the prospect of tins immense
increase in U S. nuclear sink
ing power Importantly influ
enced the Soviets to begin
pushing the Berlin crisis to
towards a final climax. But
wiiile the Soviets still lacked
"free first strike capability. "
the risks of pushing too hard
and too fast were unavoidably
very terrible.
"Free first strike capabil
ity" iwhirh the U.S. long en
joyed but never used) mav
be defined as the power to
take out enough of your op
ponent's nuclear strength with
your own first strike, so that
his counter-strike will be re
duced to a point considered
acceptable.
'IM1E Soviets were in fact
seeking to gam this kind of
freedom to strike first by in
stalling large numbers of
MllllMi and IRBMs in Cuba
The President's action has
halted them m good time; li.it
if they had not been hailed,
the upset in the nuclear bal
ance would have been drastic
indeed.
To he specific, the weight
of the unavoidable American
retaliatory slitke might have
been reduced from many hun
dreds of II bombs to some

50 bombs. In any exchange.
this many H-bombs could still
have been launched from Po
laris submarines and the lew
SAC bombers that would have
escaped a Soviet first strike
But the Soviets could also
hope that the U.S. might give
way rather than risk a nuclear
exchange, after the great up
set in the balance which they
hoped to achieve in Cuba.
The prize, in short, was
very great. The plan gaining
this great prize may properly
be described as a trap for
three reasons. First, the work
of missile emplacement was
begun at the last possible mo
ment, under cover of Hum
cane Ella (and long after Sen
ator Keating said offensive
missiles were being emplaced,
when nothing of the sort was
happening). Second, when
once begun, the work was car
ried forward with a speed
both impressive and alarm
ing, with the obvious aim of
creating an accomplished fact
as soon as possible.
rpiIIRD, every effort was
-- meanwhile made to con
fuse, delude, and falsely reas
sure the American govern
ment, by Ambassador Dobry
nin's oily promises that long
range missiles would never
be sited in Cuba, by Foreign
Minister Gromyko's outright
lies to President Kennedy,
and by the phony-jolly pro
fessions of peaceful intent
with which Khrushchev him
self welcomed Ambassador
Kohler to Moscow.
This was, in truth, a darkly
Machiavellian scheme. If the
U.S. had waited until faced
with the accomplished fact of
the important Soviet nuclear
striking power in Cuba, one
can easily imagine the sequel.
Khrushchev m i g h t well
have come to the U.S. next
month, as he has been saying
he would, but with what new
trumps in his hands! And
when Khrushchev delicately
referred to his new "first free
strike capability," and angrily
demanded surrender at Ber
lin, President Kennedy would
then have no alternative ex
cept to offer his submission
or order an American first
strike on the spot.
But that cannot happen
now, because the U.S. sprang
the Soviet trap while it was
still relatively harmless.

BLOCKADE PROCLAIMED
It is Wednesday morning as
I am writing this article, and
the President's proclamation
of a selective

just gone into

lar is presumed to be carry
ing contraband. There has as
yet been no contact between
these ships and our forces and
wc do not know what orders
Moscow has given to the ship
captains.
For the present, all depends
upon these orders. As of the
present moment we do not
know whether the orders are
to turn away from Cuba, to
proceed and submit to search,
or to proceed and to refuse
to submit to search.
I TNT1L we do know, we can
only speculate as to wheth
er the Soviets will engage
themselves at sea on the way
to Cuba, will submit to the
blockade and retaliate else
where, or will limit them
selves to violent statements
without violent action.
There are those, for whose
judgment I have profound
respect, who think that it is
now too late for this country
to influence the decisions of
the Soviet Union and that the
President is now irretrievably
committed to a course which
can end only with a tot.il
blockade or an invasion of
Cuba.
They may be right. But I
have lived through two world
wars, and in both of them,
once we were engaged, we
made the same tragic mistake.
We suspended diplomacy
when the guns began to shoot.
In both wars, as the result,
we achieved a great victoiy
but we could not make peace.
There is a mood in this coun
try today which could easily
cause us to make the same
mistake again. We must in
nonor attempt to avoid it.
T SEE danger of this mistake
in the fact that when the
President saw Mr. Gromyko
on Thursday, and had the evi
dence of the missile build-up
in Cuba, he refrained from
confronting Mr. Gromyko
with this evidence. This was
to suspend diplomacy. If it
had not been suspended, the
President would have shown
Mr. Gromyko the pictures,
and told him privately about
the policy which in a few
days he intended to announce
publicly. This would have
made it more likely that Mos
cow would order the ships
not to push on to Cuba.
But if such diplomatic ac
tion did not change the orders,
if Mr. Khrushchev persisted in
spite of it, the President's
public speech would have
been stronger. For it would
not have been subject to the
criticism that a great power
had issued an ultimatum t
another great power without
first attempting to negotiate
the Issue.
By confronting Mr. Gro
myko privately, the President
would have given Mr. Khru

men give their adversaries -the
chance to save face.
THERE is, I know, no use
crying over spilt milk. But
I am making the point because
there is still so much mil
that can be spilt.
We have, we must note,
made two separate demands.
One is that no more "of
fensive weapons" shall be
brough: into Cuba. On tlvs
demand, we shall soon have a
showdown. Considering t h s
unanimity of the other Ameri
can stales, considering the
strategic weakness of the So
viet Union in this hemisphere,
there is reason to hope that
the quarantine of Cuba will
work, though we must expert
retaliation elsewhere.
But the President has laid
down a second demand, which
is that the missile installations
already in Cuba be dismantled
and removed. How this is to
be done is a very great ques
tion, even supposing that
there is no shooting conflict
at sea. And it is here, I be
lieve, that diplomacy must not
abdicate.
There are three ways to get
rid of the missiles already in
Cuba. One is to invade and
occupy Cuba. The second way
is to institute a total blockade,
particularly of oil shipments,
which would in a few months
ruin the Cuban economy. The
third way is to try, I repeat to
try, to negotiate a face-saving
agreement.
T HASTEN to say at once
1 that I am not talking about
and do not believe in a "Cuba
Berlin" horse trade. Cuba and
Berlin ure wholly different
cases. Berlin Is not an Ameri
can missile base, it is not a
base for any kind of offensive
action, as Cuba is by way of
becoming.
The only place that is truly
comparable with Cuba is Tur
key. This is the only place
where there are strategic
weapons right on the frontier
of the Soviet Union. There
are none in Norway, there are
none in Iran, there are none
in Pakistan. There are some
in Italy. But Italy is not on
the frontier of the Soviet
Union.
There is another important
similarity between Cuba and
Turkey. The Soviet missile
base in Cuba, like the U.S.
NATO base in Turkey, is of
little military value. The So
viet military base in Cuba is
defenseless, and the base in
Turkey is all but obsolete.
The two bases could be dis
mantled without altering the
world balance of power.
IF, as the first concrete step
in the disarmament we've
talked so much about, there
could be an agreement to re
move offensive weapons from
fringe countries, it would rut
mean, of course, that Turkey
would cease to be under the
protection of NATO.
Norway docs not have stra
tegic weapons on her soil and
she is still an allied nation.
Great Britain, which is a pit
lar of NATO, is actually liqui
dating U.S. missile and bom
ber bases on her own soil in
accordance with Western stra
tegic doctrine.
For all these reasons I say
that an agreement of this sort
may be doable and that there
may exist a way out of the
tyranny of automatic and ur.
controllable events.
