National Newspaper Week, Oct, 14-20
by Holmes Alexander
in Amarillo Globe-Times
Dr. Karl Menninger, in his
classic study of human self-de-
struction. "Man Against Himself,"
points out that suicide is every
where more common than murder
—and the reporter of running
history cannot help but wonder
whether this is not equally true
of nations.
Two Senators on the same af-
ternoon—Goldwater and Stennis
—recently brought this grim
thought to a reporter's mind. In
Senate speeches on matters oth-
erwise unrelated, these two men
touched on the point of what the
USA is insanely doing to herself,
quite apart from what our ene-
mies would like to do to us.
Goldwater of Arizona address-
ed himself to the accepted prin-
ciple of civilian control of the
American Government. Nobody in
his senses would question this
principle, but Goldwater was
wondreing aloud whether our
psychotic fear of non-existent
Ceasarism has not given us a
phobie which is causing a quaran-
tine upon military thinking—one
that could be the death of us.
He cited an opinion by Adlai
Stevenson to the effect that we
should stop short of full nuclear
preparedness in the hope that
Russia might also practice nu-
clear restraint. No military mind
would think that: way. Only a
civilian mind, in an excess of
antirnilitarism could concieve the
now-familiar concept of disarm-
ament-by-example. Goldwater al-
so cited the opinion of Roswell
Gilpatric, Deputy Security of De-
fense, who has enunciated the
military doctrine of Second in
Space, saying we will never put
weapons there until the Russions
do so first. No military mind
would choose to give the enemy
