a shocking giveaway in the statement of Gen. Curtis
LeMay, Air Force Chief of Staff, that had he been
consulted before the treaty was negotiated, he would
have opposed it.

These Days
Advisers, made a speech in which he said that there
is no evidence that automation is responsible for
the unemployment rate. ?
Both men could be dead right.
If people think that automation causes unemploy-
ment—and if unemployment grows—-there some-
day could be an outbreak against the fancied men-
ace of the machines, the computers et al. It is im-
portant that the public know the truths—unpleasant
as well as pleasant—about automation so that such
a misdirected outburst does not occur.
As Ackley points out, while automation is a new
twist in the industrial revolution which now is two
centuries old, the gradual increase in productivity
has not really been accelerated. Quests for higher
productivity through the years have caused changes
from human power to horsepower to waterpower
to steam to electricity to atomic energy The pro-
gress has been steady but never really spectacular
at any one time, just as we still use all of these pow-
ers in the 20th Centu^-^
Labor-saving devices sometimes abolish particular
jobs, but any hope of improvement in the standard
of living depends upon getting the most out of our
work.
For example, if hand methods would bring even
full employment, India would have full employment.
She doesn’t have it. hut West Germany, France, Italy
and Japan do have it These latter countries have
been installing labor-saving equipment faster than
in the United States.
Full employment depends upon the economic
health of a nation. If production is poor, there will
be poor people. Economic illnesses are character-
ized by inflation, confiscatory tax rates, industrial
backwardness and the substitution of political for
characteristics of any human be-
ing, whether he be a man or a
woman, is his stubborn determin-
ation to have his own way—no
matter what he must do to
achieve it, or how much he hurts
himself and others in doing so.
It is this human characteristic,!

the past days have suddenly disclosed a growing
sentiment against the treaty. If the hidden opposi-
tion, too timid before, manifests itself, Kennedy
may be facing one of the greatest setbacks in his
career.
One by one, the arguments presented in favor of
ratification have been
__ withdrawn or demolished.
’ It will be recalled that,
originally, those who fav-
) ored the treaty held that
/ it was "militarily advan-
The report of the Senate Preparedness Investi-
gating Subcommittee was an even greater blow.
Carefully and soberly worded, it made it abundantly
clear that ratification would tie one hand behind
America's back and gravely weaken our defense
posture. These are conclusions that no American
। can ignore—and it was touch and go as to whether
or not the administration would be able to suppress
the report. Sen. Russell’s decision, however, pre-
vented any administration end-run.
At present, the single reminding argument in
favor of the treaty is, to my mind, a chilling one.
It is being said repeatedly in the Senate cloakrooms
that the treaty must be ratified "because to do any-
thing else would embarrass the president." This
may be persuasive to those whose major interests
are tied to Kennedy’s political future. But it is hard-
ly convincing to those thinking of the American
I future.
The treaty is good for this country or it is bad—
j with graduations, of course. If it is bad—if it can-
not be conclusively proved that it is good—then the
benefit of the doubt should go to those who oppose
ratification. The conclusions of the Senate Pre-
paredness Subcommittee cannot be ignored:
! "From the evidence we are compelled to conclude
that serious— perhaps even formidable—military
and technical disadvantages will flow from the rati-
fication of the treaty. ... It is vital to our very
survival that no step be taken which in any manner
would degrade the ability of our military forces to
protect our security, if we should be challenged mili-
! tarilv. by a hostile nuclear power.”
The subcommittee made it abundantly clear that
the test ban treaty would, in fact, degrade that ab-
ility. It has already been compromised by Amer-
ican innocence in previously accepting the morator-
ium on testing which the Soviet Union unilaterally
abrogated
Can the test ban treaty be stopped? Thirty-four
votes would do it. The administration, until this
week, was abundantly sure it could muster the nec-
essary two-thirds demanded by the Constitution.
It is not so sure today The measure of opposition
against ratification will be in the courage of indi-
vidual senators. I know few who do not have ser-
ious misgivings. But they are afraid of the voters.
If the anti-treaty mail—already heavy—increases in
volume, there may be a massive change of heart in
the Senate—Copyright 1963
