Mr. Sokolsky opines that the American people are tragically uninformed on the dangers and potptials of the new weapons, and the extent and effectiveness of our de. fenses. He hints that Congress itself is kept in the dark by the military, and urges a Congressional inquiry into the subject. It may be argued that in some ways our free flow of information places us at a disadvantage with a country whose government operates in complete secrecy. But by and large, most Americans realize that our strhgth as a nation rests on the enlightenment of the people, Certainly there will always be top secrets which must be closely, guarded. but beyond them the fullest possible public knowledge can be our most powerful weapon and our best defense. Shoulci theAmericanpeople be told more about Abombs and . or are we already telling too muchtipping our hand to the Russians?. The divergent opinions on this matter expressed by Co lumfists Roscoe Drummond and George E. Sokolsky in yesterday'sbeseret News raise some provocative q6stions. Mr. Drummond the view that we are at a definite disadvantage in the cold war because of our open discussions of what should be secret military matters; He reports the administration is "greatly disturbed" at the amount of vital information available to the public, and therefore easily available to any potential enemy.
