The President alone has the broad power and control ever the wide range of functions which must be organized, carried on. timed, and pushed to overall success to meet the enemy and to overcome him. We must quickly train, in our universities and elsewhere, knowledgeable Americans needed to officer and man this new force of our defense, the cold . national war fighting force. . . Immediately following our declaration of conflict against the international Communist the Congress conspiracy, should declare contraband all Communist arms and munitions iiTthe Western Hemisphere. The other bill is HJR 524, which declares that Communist arms and munitions are contraband in the Western and requires Hemisphere the President to enforce this contraband by appropriate use of United States air power and sea power.

As to the next to the last paragraph in which Mr. Smiley told of seeing puzzlement in the eyes of deaf children, he should realize these children were young and just beginning their education, and consequently were not perfect in their He unability to doubtedly spoke to them in terms outside their experience.

There emerges Six from Owes Xixoo sense of injury and hurt. He resents the wealth of those who opposed him. Nelson Rockefeller, the Ken- -' nedys, and in one of his few generalizations he notes that the time may hare come when only those with private riches can run for high public office.
