By FRANK JENKINS
In Washington this morning.
U.S. Secretary of State Rusk
urges the Senate to approve the
nuclear test ban treaty and nrom-
ises that President Kennedy will
ABROGATE THE PACT OVER
NIGHT if Russia should violate it
added
President Kennedy believes the
Soviet Union WOULD violate the
treaty if it felt that violation
would serve its interests.
At this point. Senator Leverett
Saltonstall of Massachusetts
asked why Russia agreed to the
treaty in the first place (if she
lias her lingers crossed and
prepares to violate it at any
moment when it seems to her
lhat it would be to her interest
to do sol.
Secretary Rusk replied:
"I believe the Soviets have
concluded that it is to their in
terest to do so. In the past
year, the nuclear powers, for the
first time, have had a look at
nuclear exchange (meaning the
exchange of nuclear bombs' as
an operational matter.
"in the Cuban missile crisis,
man had a chance to look into the
inferno."
By that, presumably. Secretary
Rusk means that in Cuba Presi
dent Kennedy told Premier Khru
shchev to GET HIS MISSILES
OUT or we'd drop OUR missies
on him.
That, he indicated, took nucle
ar warfare out of the academic
field and brought it down to the
field of ACTUALITY.
Secretary Rusk told the Senate
that the United States has not
forgotten the lessons of its deal
ings with Russia since the end of i
World War II.
Again we must draw our con-1
elusions as to what he meant
by what he said. He didn't go into
detail as to what he meant by
his statement that we have not
forgotten the lessons we learned
about Russia in World War II.
We must assume that he was
referring to Russia's failure to
live up to the promises she made
to us as our ally. We learned
then that Russia's promises arc
not to be depended upon when a
situation arises in which it will
be to Russia's advantage to break
her promises.
Rut
d-V
:ile concluded-
"Any marginal risks involved
in the lest ban treaty are FAR
LESS than those which would
result if an unlimited arms race
continues."
So
He was saying to the Senate,
which must ratify the test ban
treaty if it is to become bind
ing upon us
We will be belter of WITH a
test ban treaty than without one.
