"There is a good deal of indecision." admitted Zumwalt during his turbulent stint at the Navy helm, "as to whether I'm a drooling-fang militarist or a bleeding-heart liberal." The confusion over Zumwalfs ideology derives from his two most famous political stands stands so diverse they create a paradox few have fathomed. The first. Zumwalt's long-heralded humanization and integration of the U.S. Navy, has made him the darling of the press and liberals everywhere. The second, which brought Zumwalt to Chapel Hill, is the admiral's staunch support of greater defense spending on what he considers our rapidly diminishing nuclear deterrent a stance that has drawn panegyrics and encomiums from conservative quarters. Zumwalt is a contradiction in terms. He is softspoken. yet his ideas are aggressive, delivered with the confidence of extensive knowledge. Zumwalt is an intellectual, yet his words are simple, unpretentious powerful. Zumwalt is an admiral of the highest rank; yet in his manner there is neither the pomp of admiralty nor evidence of military hauteur. The admiral lounged in a blue-grey business suit answering questions in a quiet, deliberate style that masked an eager tenacity to convey exactly the right impression in his words. Zumwalt gave some insight into the volatile mixture of idealism and realism that is responsible for the paradox of his politics as he discussed his move to integrate the U.S. Navy. "There was no way in my judgment that we could man the navy as a lily-white, racist, sexist navy. We had to make it a microcosm of the country at large just to get it manned. It also happened to be the right thing to do. I was in that comfortable position. 1 think, of feeling that is was both the right thing from an idealistic standpoint and from a realistic standpoint." Zumwalt is even more sure that the right thing to do is to increase our nuclear deterrent. "There is a common perception in this country that we have the ability to kill the Russians several times over, so why go more. The fact is we dont have enough-to kill all the Russians once. If you agree with me that the Russians will inevitably strike first, if you buy that assumption, then with what we have left that survives we can't kill half the Russians. And with every year the number we could kill in a second strike deteriorates rapidly so that by 1980 the Russians will have a capability so awesome that a Stalin could be tempted to strike first. 1 don't think they will; I think they'll just use that superiority to force us to accomodate them just as we forced them to accomodate us in the Cuba. Zumwalt pressed harder. "If the present trend continues, we will have a combination of accuracy and megatonage so small that the Soviets would feel reassured that we couldn't strike first because we lack the capability to destroy their missiles. Theirs are designed deliberately, they tell us in the negotiations, to destroy ours. Faced with this kind of a situation, by 1980. in a first strike, they could destroy essentially all of our bombers, all our missiles on the ground, all of our ships in port, and the only thing we would have left with which we could retaliate would be our relatively inaccurate sea-based missiles." Zumwalt knows full well the cost of matching the Soviet power in nuclear arms. He knows also the instability of the U.S. economy. "I strongly favor reducing expenditures for strategic weapons on both sides, but the only way we will ever achieve that is to expend for strategic weapons at a rate sufficient to convince the Russians they had' better join us in reducing expenditures ... The Russians have been out spending us by 60 per cent for the last 5 or 6 years. And they are overtaking us at an impressive rate. Therefore they feel no incentive to give us equivalence in the strategic deals but rather are insisting on strategic superiority." In the true military tradition, Zumwalt finds fuel for his arguments in history. "After every major war, there has been a letting up, a lowering of defenses that has made the next war more likely. The only way one can avoid war is to stay strong enough that the enemy is not tempted to war.

"40 thousand Americans have lost their lives there, billions of our treasure have been expended," he said. "Secretary Kissinger gave his solemn word and the nation's word of honor to President Thieu that in exchange for his support of a very undesirable truce, one almost guaranteed to make it difficult for his nation to survive, that the U.S. would continue to. provide material aid to match the several billions of dollars worth of aid the North would continue to get from Russia and China, in my view, we would be violating our honor as an ally, letting down 1 7 million who have thrown in their lot with us. and would disturb the sanctity of our alliance relationships around the world, if we sit and watch South Vietnamese cities overrun, and their leadership murdered as was done in the North when the Communists took over." Zumwalt was personally against the American involvement in Vietnam. He says that Vietnam was not the place to "start propping up the dominoes." According to Zumwalt, the UJS. should have let the Vietnam conflict play itself out while preparing to stop the Communists by supporting Thailand. Malaysia, and Indonesia, -.countries not already involved in insurgencies. Zumwalt is further critical that our involvement in Vietnam was unconstitutional. "The ways in which we became involved in South Vietnam." said Zumwalt. "were not consistent 1 with the principles of a democracy. The people were considerably deceived about the reasons for. and the ways in which, we were becoming involved.' The same secrecy is now lowering the public's awareness of the Soviet threat, said Zumwalt. "We arc claiming great success in detente, but it has been almost totally Soviet success and the reason for it is that we have again, through failure to alert the people to the truth, permitted the euphoria of detente to reduce our defenses to lowest level since 1950."
