The means for attaining an end from a vital factor and must be available, he said. "Hence, the political policy maker must right ly look to the military man for sound, impartial opinion and fact concerning military means and capabilities. - .General 'Ridgway, whose appear ance was sponsored by the Caro lina Forum, non-partisan student organization, presented views on the effect of foreign relations up on military operations and de scribed the Army's role in peace and wan Bob Young, Asheville, Forum vice-chairman, presided.
