Let us observe some of the basic forms of propaganda: ( ) omission; (2) class struggle; (3) pictures and cartoons (gross, ugly, weird); (4) half-trut- h, double standard, duplicity. American history should be told with words that reflect the free spirit of America, words the student can identify with his NATION which imply more than the story being told. A text should be measured by what it OMITS as well as by what it COVERS.

With little or no effective protest from the U.S., the Soviets have now accomplished they originally set out to. achieve back in the early part of 1962 the establishment of an ad- vance strategic military base inside U.S. defenses and are using it. two dozen Approximately TU-95D Soviet bombers, with range of upward to 5,000 miles, are now stationed at airfields in Cuba on a rotation basis. Capable of carrying nuclear weapons, these bombers have the power to destroy one-thiof the nations industrial and kill upward to 70,000.000 Americans in a surprise attack. These bombers are the modern version of those that the late President John Kennedy forced the Soviets to remove from Cuba during the missile crisis 15 years ago. Cuban naval facilities are now available and used by a fleet of nuclear-powere- d sub- Soviet missile-firing marines and cruisers, The Cuban bases permit these Rus- sian warships to operate inside the U.S. defense perimeter for the western hemisphere. In addition to these Soviet air and naval operations from CuSa, more than 10,000 Soviet and East European military advisers have turned the entire Cuban military force of 20,000 into an offensive" force for use any Jjliicfcirf theWor Id. . rd 1 i w v. : ' and in Mozambique, the Cubans are now helping the Russians es- tablish advance military bases for future operations in southern Africa. STRANGE U.S. POLICY When all the cover layers are removed, the policy of the Carter administration since January has been to let the Russians continue their operations from this strategic base and to even protect it from any outside attacks by forces. Activities of forces are now kept under tight surveillance by U.S. agencies under direction from the White House and this information is being passed along to Cuban officials in Havana on a regular basis. In other words, U.S. intelligence and security agencies are now working for Castro and Moscow and not against them. The ending of U.S. reconnaissance flights over the island also permits the Russians to operate there in a secrecy com parable to the early months of 1962 when they began sending bombers and missiles to Cuba. Because of the Carter adof acministration's policy commodating both Havana and Moscow, there is little or no possibility that the U.S. will take action to limit. Soviet operations from its Cuban base unless pushed to do so by Congress and the public as Kennedy was in 1962. insiders say Government privately that the only thing that has kept the President from lifting the Cuban embargo and tablishing full diplomatic relations with the Castro government has been the opposition in Congress and around the country. Until the Senate acts on the new Panama Canal treaties, it is stressed, the President doesnt want to take on any new foreign policy battles that would split the anti-Cast- ro anti-Cast- ro es-w- hat country. SENATE HEARINGS NEEDED With the Senate ty Armed Service Committee ningto hold hearings in January on the security implications of the new Panama Canal treaties, the lawmakers should be encouraged to use these sessions to highlight the impact that the Russians' base in Cuba could have on our ability to defend this strategic waterway. Russia's grand design for years has been to neutralize and plan-capaci- then control the strategic and the world the of waterways Soviet's advance military operational base in Cuba fits into that strategy, Not so clear is why the Carter administration is assisting Moscow in its objective by (1) protecting its base in Cuba and (2) negotiating a treaty that will make it increasingly harder to politically, legally, and militarily defend one of the most .strategic .waterways ip the world.
