Little debate preceded the 63-3 1 vote, which followed a five-day filibuster by Farm Belt senators trying to get promises of relief for economically hard-pressed farmers. All the votes against Meese were cast by Democrats. Sen. Howard Mctenbaum, IM)hio. one of Meese s most vocal critics, said many serious ethical questions surrounding Meese still remained unanswered. "Let us not kid ourselves; Mr. Meese's conduct has not indicated that he is a paragon of virtue. I would guess, as others, he will be confirmed this afternoon. We can only hope Mr. Meese's future conduct will be better than his past conduct," he said. ; But Senate "Judiciary Committee Chairman .1. Strom Thurmond, R-S.O, said Meese "was selected and appointed by President Reagan. It is assumed he is a man of character and qualified for the position.

"You have to be firm in dealing with the Soviets, but you need to use a firmness that makes good sense between the two countries and for the rest of the world," said Sen. Paul Sarbanes, D-Md. Sarbanes advocated building up U.S. defenses at reduced levels, without trying to have more nuclear arms than the USSR. The resources both countries are pouring into the arms race would be saved, he said. Carmichael For one game, at least, they disproved him, and he knew it.

R-Kan.. negotiated with farm state senators to reach a breakthrough in the filibuster. Democrats and Republicans agreed to consider the problerns of farmers by allowing farm relief amendments to be added to an African famine relief bill. Opposition to Meese's nomination centered around allegations that he had acted unethically on several occasions, including charges that he had failed to disclose an interest free loan, provided federal jobs for people who had done financial favors for him. and received preferential treatment in gaining an Army Reserve promotion. But Thurmond said Meese had undergone "the most intense and exhaustive scrutiny I have witnessed in my Senate career." "In every case," he said, "the acts have clearly shown that Mr. Meese has violated no criminal laws and has acted ethically in his business and personal dealings." "Try to work your arms down," Sarbanes said. "That, 1 think, gives you greater stability and less tension." It will be difficult to reduce the defense budget because President Reagan and Secretary of Defense Caspar Weinberger see the United States only in military terms, he said. There are other dimensions of the government, such as economics, diplo matic skills and principles of freedom that have caused other countries to look to the United States and should not be ignored. Sarban "The one basic criticism I have toward the Reagan administration is that it is one-dimensional. It sees America's strength in military terms only. You should use it (military strength) as a checkmate, a counterbal ance," he said. But David R.

Box 1000 Carrollton, GA 301 19 Equal Opportunity employer 1 05 Reagan advisor, defended the Reagan record on arms control. "Most Americans prefer the Reagan approach, which is that we should not let ourselves fall into a disadvantage. Reagan's foreign policy is making us more secure." Gergen said Reagan understood foreign policy enough to be an effective president. The understanding of foreign policy by presidents in general rely on the instincts of the president and the quality of his advisors, he said. "If Ronald Reagan took a 100 question quiz on arms control, would he get every question right? The answer is no, but he understands the situation. I think President Reagan in more concerned about arms control than people think," Gergen said. Reagan should be judged by the effectiveness of his policy, not by his intelligence, Gergen said in response to an article in the New Republic describ ing the president's mind as "second rate." "Globe Watch" host Dr. James Leutze, UNC professor of history and chairman of the curriculum in Peace, War and Defense, stated his own views at the end of the program. Leutze said the United States must use something other than military strength to show political greatness, and said intelligence should be .an important factor in evaluating presidential performance. "I see intelligence as a mark of flexibility. Flexibility allows you to be less dependent on ideology. 1 would like' to believe that we need intelligence in the Presidency," Leutze said.
