President Nixon’s statement on the state of tension between the United States and the U.S.S.R. can, as a negative interpretation of the strategic position, also be a warning to some Western cab inets not to be too self-satisfied in their policy of detente. The United States is steering : a firm course as regards the East Mr. Nixon is still offering nego tiations instead of confrontation, but he has made a painful dis covery during his term of office: The Russians have mistaken for weakness his readiness to nego tiate. They shamelessly exploit the dialectics of nuclear policy. Under the nuclear shelter neu tralizing all-destructive forces, they have made the incompati bility of a traditional contro versy between nuclear powers into a guideline for all their po litical actions in the Mediterran ean, the Mddle East, the Far East — and in Berlin. The Rus sians have been testing their new position in the world. The Amercans have only just recognized that the Soviet Union has grown from a continental power into an empire challeng ing the world and intervening everywhere it can. Washington now wants to cor rect its previously false evalua tion. That is what is behind Nix on’s recent decisions in strategy and foreign policy) But he needs the understand ing of Europe if his strategy of the firm course is to prove suc cessful. An isolationist America would mean a Russian victory. If Europe one day finds it self alone in a confrontation with the Soviet Union, the old con tinent would become, at best, another Finland. is spreading throughout. all con tinents in connection with the frame-up against Angela Davis, who is being harassed for her communist convictions and self less fight for civil rights in the United States. The attitude of the big press and other mass news media in the United States is amazing; the wider the movement becomes, the greater is the zeal of these media in hushing it up. . . The rank-and-file Americans are not being told how the world public is really reacting' to the harsh reprisals in the United States to the hounding of Anegla Davis. The major papers in that'country do not print the comment of progressive Amer icans on this matter. , The frame-up against Angela Davis is being staged at a time when throughout the United Stat es the persecution of the intel ligentsia — students, teachers, writers, scientists — as well as of representative of the blacks and other national minorities, has noticeably been intensified. Arbitrariness and lawlessness are becoming aj permanent feature of American life. Other Editors Say — PARIS, LE MONDE A Serious Mistake Edmund Muskie, the strapping, friendly-faced Senator from Maine on whom an increasing number of Democrats are count ting to reconquer the White House in 1972, is convinced the United States made a serious mistake by intervening in Viet nam. The wisest policy, he be lieves, would be for it to fol / Register* end Register Forme im > , ' 1 W*.t, When the federal Govern ment overspends its budget and relies on new borrowings, the American taxpayer suffers, even though many' “on the banks of the Potomac” believe that the less said about this matter the better. Yet, when one gets at the root of our present-day in flation and high interest costs, he finds that the Federal Gov ernment and its fiscal policies are largely to blame. Again this year, according to the latest prediction of the Con gressional Joint Committee on Reduction of Federal Expendi tures, the Government will run another deficit, and the Com mittee estimates it as $15.6 bil lion. Moreover, the Treasury advises that interest on the na tional debt now runs at more than $21 billion annually. This is the second largest item in the Federal budget. 'These figures indicate the magnitude of a problem that I think requir es the attention of the 92nd Con gress as it convenes today. At the last session, I co-spon sored the Fannin Amendment to the Constitution which pro poses that the 'President and the Congress comply with a new Continued on page 6 low the advice given by Gen eral de Gaulle in his 1966 Pnom penh speech and set a deadline for the withdrawal of all U. S. military personnel from South east Asia. Certain other opponents of President Nixon’s Vietnam pol icy have their eyes on the elec tions scheduled to take place in South Vietnam at the beginning of 1972. The victory of an over-whelming number of neu tralist candidates, they suggest, could make negotiations easier. At any rate, Mr. Nixon’s crit ics do not think that the Saigon government, uncertain of sup port among the people, doubtful of the loyalties of its administra tive classes, and threatened by growing unrest in the cities, as well as the continued drain of operations in Cambodia, can hold out without considerable assistance from the United Stat es. In particular, they believe the South Vietnamese will have to rely on U, S. air support. Other Editor* Say — THE LONDON DAILY TELEGRAPH Unpromising As time -goes on — with con tinuing Americah troop with drawals and increased assump tion of the military burden by South Vetnamese forces — ten sioii is bound to mount, is in fact already mounting, over how Hanoi may contemplate frustrat ing the whole operation. We can take it as axiomatic that frustrating it, somehow, some time, is now a first priority for the North Vietnamese cabal. Without becoming over-optim istic, it is safe to assume that they have serious worries. De spite their more than twenty years of relatively '“fighting their object!?^ * ever have' _ for Bus The so-called specal relation ship between Britain and the United States is an easy target for ridicule and abuse, but in both economic and military terms its sudden death would be a bitter bereavement on both sides. For that reason, Mr. Ed ward Heath’s effort to heal ex isting breaches is timely. To put it at tie most cynical level, we cannot afford to wash our hands of the special relationship until we find our own role and adopt it. If this means going into Europe, it need not mean abandoning good will toward the United States, and certainly to do the latter without being sure of the former would be disas trous.
