"SUPER-RIGHT" HEAVY GRAIN FED
a massive Corps of three million,
with every occupation represent
ed, from bankers to plumbers, to
housewives. This is probably un
workable because of the great
cost and difficulty in recruiting.
A second idea is a modification of
this: a much smaller Corps of
highly trained and experienced
men, willing to serve at a sacri
fice and who can really advance
the cause of America. The third
solution seems best to me. We
could extend the foreign student
program greatly. By training peo
ple from under developed nations
to help themselves, we could have
lifetime workers, instead of two
year men. A special cram course
in English, along the lines of the
Army language schools could pre
pare them for admission to regu-
. lar schools here. For example,
five native graduates of UNCs In-
stitute of Government or N. C.
State's School of Agriculture or
Mineral Industries could be much
more valuable to the Congo than
25 Peace Corps men digging a
Iitch.
. Sure, underdeveloped nations
want and heed our help. But do
they want a group of fuzzy-cheeked,
inexperienced and unhappy
youths? The general consensus of
opinion is enthusiastic about the
theory, but skeptical of the pres
ent program.
Donald Grubbs seems to think
of me as a reactionary. Khrus
chev blames the obstruction of
world communism on capitalist
reactionaries. If Mr. Grubbs, too,
wishes to define a reactionary
as one who is against commun
ism, by any name, I'm proud to
wear the label. As for exchanging
alma maters; if he's as leftist as
his letter indicate, he'd prob
ably be happier at the University
of Havana.
It's a shame that the Malayan
undergraduate got such an un
pleasant impression of the South.
He reminds me a bit of an ac
quaintance of mine who has set
himself up as an expert on Eu
rope after a seventeen-day ex
cursion. His most famous state
ment is, "Our guide in Paris was
a typical Frenchman: a mustach-
ed, five-foot-two pervert."
"Harvard Speaks"

Sing a song of sixpence
With a Harvard "A".
Castro isn't nasty;
He's just gone astray.
Please don't rattle sabers
Put that pistol down!
Castro isn't Commie;
Castro's just a clown.
Don't be mean to Cuba
Don't abuse Fidel.
When the clouds look stormy
And you're feeling blue.
Put your faith in Harvard
And the "Crimson" too.
Harvard knows the -score, Jack;
Harvard's rating high
As that hoary goody,
The pie that's in the sky.

Letter
(Continued from Page 2)
attainment of these objectives.
The Church sends missionarys to
save lives and improve standards
of living hot where they are most
needed to fight communism but
when they can best convert peo
ple to Christianity. To the Church
the Kingdom of God is the goal
not necessarily the salvation of
men from communism. We need
our aid and policy directed cen
trally and the Peace Corps is a
step in this direction.
Mr. Henry implies that the
Corpsmen should be cnosen ac
cording to their ability to depict
communist infiltration and their
ability to stop it. Kennedy's
Corps, I submit, is not merely a
reaction to communism, it is
not an army or a riot squad sent
into a country to quell rebellions
or to forment rebellions of its
own. Its purpose instead is to
create a healthy and stable coun
try with happy and secure people.
Only then can there be an at
mosphere conducive to demo
cracy.
To understand this statement
one must understand communist
propaganda their reason for suc
cess. The communists blame the
misery and economic sterilization
of underdeveloped countries on
capitalistic domination and ita
corrollary economic bleeding.
They say, "If you want to stop
starving and if you want to see
your country progress before
your very eyes, follow our ex
ample. In 40 years we transform
ed Russia from a Czardom and a
peasant serfdom into a contendor
for first place among world pow
ers. Follow us and we will show
you how, too." And the starving
masses listen and react it makes
sense. Russia tells them, "A-
merica preaches capitalism and
democracy, and yet you are still
starving. Follow us and we will
give you land and food and then
lead you into an Utopia and true
democracy of the working peo
ples." They listen; it makes
sense.
Kennedy is substituting action
for talk. The Peace Corps, if
supported and enlarged, will help
to do away wilh Khrushchev's
most sympathetic listener the
guy out of work and with no food
and with no salvation in this life
save Marxism and revolution or
perhaps the Peace Corps and
peace.

- "Urgent Need"
(Continued from Page 3)
year, perhaps as many as 700 by
now. Smaller than the B-36, it
looks like a bulky, overgrown
Stratojet, and in most respects it
really is an enlargement of the
B-47. The B-52 carries eight Pratt
and Whitney J-57 Turbo-Wasp
jets, mounted in pads under
sweptmack wings, giving it a
maximum speed near 700 mph.
The range (fully loaded) ex
ceeds 8,000 miles, the ceiling is
veil over 55,000 feet, and the
latest variety, the B-52H, carries
four Douglas "Skybolt" ballistic
missiles.
Yet, for all its obvious merits,
the B-52 suffered tragically under
the last Administration. Produc
tion .orpinally set for 30 per
month, had dropped to four per
month by the summer of 1336.
Remedies were slow and half-efficient;
at one time the entire B-
52 fleet was grounded for lack of
gasoline. At present we have less
than half the B-52 strength we
could have had with sufficient
funds; the planned B-52 airborne
alert will have about 75 planes at
its disposal (we ought to make
300 for this purpose); and the me
dium B-58 Hustler, supersonic
replacement for the Stratojet, is
in limited production.
All this points up '.he urgent
need for the B-70. At its top speed
and altitude, this remarkable
aircraft could surely reach any
target in the Soviet Union with
out danger of effective intercep
tion and the future of the U. S.
may well hinge on this airplane.
Russia is out to take us. by force
or by infiltration; and if they
think that force can do the job,
they'll be quick to try it. A crash
program for the B-70. with the
poal af an assembled fleet by
29G5, will surely give them cause
to think twice and scratch their
heads.
