to pick itself off the floor on the morning
after. It failed utterly and dangerously to
do its own job of consulting with Congress.
As a result, the Secretary, Dean Rusk, was
required to go before the Senate Foreign Re-
lations Subcommittee on Latin American
Affairs, headed by the aggressive WAYNE
MORSE, of Oregon, a man who knows a Sen-
ator's right when he sees it. And Allen W.
Dulles of the CIA, who would rather not at-
tend meetings of that kind, was likewise
compelled to spend several hours with the
full Foreign Relations Committee the fol-
lowing day.
As It happened, both Mr. Rusk, the ama-
teur, and Mr. Dulles, the pro, acquitted them-
selves well, but either might easily have
slipped during his long question-and-an-
swer session with the most powerful com-
mittee of Congress. And if they had, the
administration might then have come face to
face with a full-scale investigation of the
kind that the Democrats forced on former
President Eisenhower last year when the
U-2 fiasco torpedoed the summit conference.
LEADS TO TROUBLE
Consultation, or sharing part of the secret,
with the proud and prerogative-conscious
Senate is a vital aspect of the political
game. ]Failure to know this and act upon
it is to open a Pandora's box of unwanted
and unnecessary troubles, and to exacerbate
the very difficulties that need curing.
The Cuban invasion was launched on Sun-
day night, April 18. The State Department
did not make an effort to get in touch with
Senator MORSE, the chairman of the sub-
committee that is directly responsible for
Latin-American affairs, until April 26, more
than a week later-and then only in re-
sponse to Senator MORSE'S second urgent
telegram asking for information.
The first MORSE message, a telegram to
Secretary Rusk asking for a briefing "in
keeping with the spirit of the advice and
consent clause" of the Constitution, was not
even acknowledged, so far as can be deter-
mined. And yet it never should have had
to be sent. Mr. Rusk and his lieutenants
should have reacted automatically to the au-
tomatic need to tell the top men of Congress
what was going on. The reaction should
have been reflex, not forced by a telegram
asking for news of what happened.
Senator MORSE dispatched his first appeal
for information on April 24. When no reply
came, he sent his second on April 26, this
one asking Under Secretary of State Chester
Bowles to come up and talk to the subcom-
mittee on April 28. But Mr. Bowles replied
that he couldn't make it.
Until that moment, Senator MORSE was
punctilious in refraining from anything re-
sembling pressure tactics. He knew that
Messrs. Rusk and Bowles had a major crisis
on their hands. He did not want to ob-
struct or confuse or get in the way.
ALMOST BLEW TOP
But when he got Mr. Bowles' refusal, he
almost blew his top-and for a very interest-
ing reason. He knew that high officials in
the administration, including Mr. Bowles
and Chip Bohlen and MacGeorge Bundy and
others, had been briefing large numbers of
editors in the State Department auditorium
on the inside story of Cuba. He also knew
that some of his Senate colleagues were seri-
ously embarrassed when they were asked by
these same editors to give their assessment
of the scene behind the scene-and had to
beg off because they had never been shown a
glimpse of it.
This was not touching Senate pride, but
trampling on it. With a couple of excep-
tions, the Foreign Relations Committee was
angry. The exceptions were the chairman,
Senator FULBRIGHT, who was the only Mem-
ber of Congress let in on the secret of the in-
vasion before it happened; and the Demo-
cratic leaders, Senator MANSFIELD, and Sena-
tor HUMPHREY, who had gotten the word at
their regular legislative breakfast with
President Kennedy on April 18.
Under these circumstances, it is scarcely
surprising that Senator MoRSE made his
speech in the Senate condemning the whole
enterprise (the first Member to raise the
issue on the floor of either House) : Nor is it
surprising that he then demanded the
presence of Mr. Dulles.
MOST IMPORTANT
The Cuban affair Was the most important
event ever to happen within the jurisdic-
tion of the Morse subcommittee. Except for
what they picked up in the newspapers,
neither the Morse subcommittee nor the full
committee had heard a word about it.
A good argument can be made, and often
has been, against consulting Members of
Congress before an undertaking as risky and
as clandestine as the Cuban Invasion.
What is not accepted, and should not be
acceptable in q government that divides its
powers among separate branches, is failure to
consult after the event, and .particularly at
a time when every visiting editor, and every
enterprising reporter, were getting selected
versions of the inside story from the top.
Relationships between the competing
power blocs in Washington are sometimes de-
cided irrevocably by errors of no larger di-
mension than this one, and the result can be
mean for the offending party. This time, no
damage was done. But, next time, it may be
different.
Mr. MORSE. Mr. President, it is my
sincere hope that every responsible offi-
cial of this Government, starting with
the President of the United States, and
including his White House advisers; the
Secretary of State and the advisers in
the State Department; Mr. Dulles, the
head of the CIA, and all the advisers of
the CIA; the Secretary of Defense, and
all his advisers in the Pentagon Building,
will read and take careful note of the
very wise observations Mr. Evans has
made in the article which I have asked to
have printed in the RECORD.
THE FINANCIAL PROBLEM CON-
FRONTING THE UNITED STATES
Mr, WILLIAMS of Delaware. Mr.
President, the distinguished senior
Senator from Maryland [Mr. BUTLER]
has earned a reputation as a man of a
commandingly sound judgment in the
field of finance. Grounded in the twin
principles of fiscal responsibility and a
balanced economy, my esteemed col-
league has untiringly supported the
free competitive enterprise system re-
sponsible for the preeminence of this
Nation.
Last Thursday, before the Delaware
Bankers Association in Wilmington, the
Senator discussed, "The Financial Prob-
lem Confronting Us." As he forth-
rightly declared:
It is the task of our generation to see that
Western civilization is preserved in the clash
that was foreseen so clearly by De Tocque-
ville. Sound monetary policy and fiscal re-
sponsibility are all-important for the pre-
servation of the heritage we cherish and
would pass on to our sons and daughters.
Mr. President, I recommend the
analysis by the Senator from Maryland
of our financial status to my colleagues
on both sides of the aisle. They will find
it, as with all statements of the Senator
from Maryland, based on fact, statistics,
and commonsense. I therefore ask
unanimous consent that the speech en-
titled, "The Financial Problem Con-
fronting Us," by the senior Senator from .-
Maryland [Mr. BUTLER], be printed in
the RECORD following my remarks..
There being no objections, the speech
was ordered to be printed in the RECORD,
as follows:
THE FINANCIAL PROBLEM CONFRONTING US -
As a Senator from a neighboring State, I
take great pleasure in accepting your invita-
tion to participate in the convention of the
Delaware Bankers Association.
I have a particularly warm feeling for
Delaware inasmuch as it was the first State
to ratify the Constitution on December 7,
1787. My own State of Maryland was not
far behind. It was the seventh, and rati-
fied the Constitution on April 28, 1788.
I know that you expect me to discuss
issues of finance and economics inasmuch
as I have been honored by my colleagues
by being appointed a member of the Finance
Committee and the Joint Economic Commit-
tee. Discussion is certainly needed these
days when so many of our young people in
our schools receive only one point of view.
Furthermore, there are far too many in-
dividuals today who are attempting to make
economics an exact science. Their efforts are
doomed to failure because economics by its
very nature must respond to the wishes of
the people. All economic decisions involving
taxes, money, and banking are the ultimate
result of the legislative process. If that en-
deavor is sound, then our economy will move
forward; otherwise we will retrogress and,
in due course, might lose our position of
world leadership.
One of the most influential private organ-
izations upon which legislators like myself
depend is the American Economic Associa-
tion, which was founded by Francis A. Walk-
er, who was president of the Massachusetts
Institute of Technology in 1881.
Unlike those who presently claim to be
economists, President Walker realized that
economics and politics in the best sense of
that word were inextricably entwined.
Hence, until very recent times students in
many institutions took courses in political
economy rather than in economics.
I would like to touch briefly on the mode
of teaching economics at MIT because so
many of those who are the financial and in-
dustrial leaders of your State receive their
education at that institution.
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology
is now celebrating its centennial. An arti-
cle in the Boston Sunday Herald, rotogravure
section, in its issue of October 30, 1960,
stated, and I quote:
"The social sciences made their first ap-
pearance as a byproduct of the appoint-
ment in 1881 of a distinguished economist,
Francis A. Walker, as president of the in-
stitute. Despite his administrative duties
and many outside activities, President
Walker found time to give a popular lec-
ture course in political economy and to
write a textbook that became the most
widely used one in the country."
Although MIT was a new school with
many problems, President Walker found time
to organize the American Economic Asso-
ciation and was its president from 1886 to
1892. I have emphasized this quotation
because you will note that the original course
which President Walker gave was known as
one in political economy and not eco-
nomics.
Many of the principles that have been
espoused by the Democratic Party, which
has been charged by the people of the United
States with their economic destiny for the
next 4 years, were supposedly formulated by
Thomas Jefferson. There may be those who
believe that he was opposed to those ideas
and ideals which you and I hold so dear.
Nothing could be further from the truth.

Soviet Union's 8,000-mile-range T-3 missile,
which carries a thermonuclear warhead.
It then states:
The United States has determined the lo-
cation of 14 Russian missile and rocket fac-
tories.
The article then says that this in-
formation appeared in the May issue of
Military Review, a magazine published
by the U.S. Army Command and General
Staff College at Fort Leavenworth, Kans.
The article goes on to present various
Russian capabilities in this field, includ-
ing Soviet missile production capacity.
The article closes by, giving further
rather precise information as to missile
launching locations, including one in
Poland.
greet. then information giver' the
Senate by the Central Intelligence
enc is incorrec .
But that Is not the point I wish to
i make in these brief comments. Secre-
tary of Defense McNamara and members
of the Senate Armed Services Committee
joined recently in criticizing the dissemi-
nation of too much military information.
But today we have an article, whether
right or wrong, emanating from the De-
partment of Defense itself; an article
presenting information about missile
ons
ave
Ing, because recently testimony was de-
leted by the Department of Defense from
the gallery proof of Senate hearings
after the transcript of these hearings
had been edited for security; and I have
protested the deletion.
Based on the contents on the lengthy
passage deleted, it was obvious this was
done for public relations reasons only.
We keep from the American people
information about broad important
policy problems they have the right to
know about, at the same time the De-
partment of Defense itself releases de-
tailed information about Russian mis-
silery contrary to that presented the
Senate by the CIA in classified hearings.
I suggest to Secretary McNamara, for
whom I have the greatest respect, that
before there is further criticism from his
Department in this field, he examine his
own shop.
Again, let me present a simple fact,
further illustrated by this recent un-
fortunate article out of Leavenworth.
Regardless of the amount of money
spent by the American taxpayer on our
security, we will never handle our de-
fenses either efficiently or effectively un-
less we reorganize the Pentagon building
in recognition of progress, instead of
continuing to let it drift in tradition.
Mr. President, I ask unanimous con-
sent that the article in question by Mr.
Bem Price of the Associated Press be
printed at this point in the RECORD.
There being no objection, the article
was ordered to be printed in the RECORD,
as follows:
THIRTY-SEVEN PADS FOR SOVIET MISSILES
(By Bem Price)
WASHINGTON, May 15.-U.S. military lead-
ers believe they know the locations of 37
Soviet missile-launching pads, including one
less than 500 miles from Alaska.
And they figure the Russians have 35 to
50 long-range war rockets ready to shoot.
At least 10 of the reported missile pads have
been identified as launch sites for the Soviet
Union's 8,000-mile-range T-3 missile, which
carries a thermonuclear warhead.
Further, the United States has determined
the location of 14 Russian missile and
rocket factories.
All of this information appears in the May
issue of Military Review, a magazine pub-
lished by the U.S. Army Command and Gen-
eral Staff College at Fort' Leavenworth,
Kans.
The magazine noted that the data have
been compiled from unclassified sources and
added, "Because of a tight Soviet control
over military information, this data is
derived: from sources which are not neces-
sarily accurate or complete."
In addition to estimating that the Rus-
sians have between 35 and 50 long-range
missiles ready to shoot, the Military Re-
view figures the Soviet Union is capable of
producing up to 200 strategic missiles by
the winter of 1961-62.
At latest count, the United States had an
estimated 59 ready-to-shoot missiles, in-
cluding 32 of the submarine-launched
Polaris rockets.
Further, said the magazine, "there is some
evidence that the U.S.S.R. Is prepared to fire
strategic missiles from mobile launchers
mounted on rail cars."
The :rail-mounted missile is believed to be
a boost-glide weapon, known as the T-4A.
This missile is boosted upward by a rocket
engine, then glides to its target like an air-
craft. It carries a 3,100-pound payload. The
range is not known, but since it is regarded
as a strategic weapon it presumably can
travel 1,500 miles or more.
In spotting the launching pads, the maga-
zine noted that all are located within the So-
viet Union with the exception of one at
Seroc, 20 miles north of Warsaw, Poland,
Most of the Russian launch pads appear
to be located west of the Ural Mountains,
though there is a launch site at Anadyr in
Siberia across the Bering Sea from Alaska.
There is, additionally, a concentration on
the Siberian mainland just to the northwest
of Japan, and on the Sakhalin Islands, due
north of Japan.
The sites near Japan are identified by the
magazine as Komsomolsk and Nikolaev, in
Siberia, and Okha, Terpeniye and Korsakov
in the Sakhalins.
There is a heavy concentration of missile
launch sites in northern Russia at Kures-
saarem Sovetek, Lugs, Minsk, Kalinin,
Brobrui.sk, Roslavi, Kiev, and Kola.
In general, however, the launch sites ap-
pear to be widely dispersed, including three
Intercontinental-range launch sites along
the extreme southern borders--at Murghab,
Alma-Ate, and Irkutsk.
VIOLENCE IN ALABAMA
Mr. JAVITS. Mr. President, I think
the whole country must be deeply
shocked, appalled, and indeed ashamed
by the evidence of violence which we see
again with respect to the so-called free-
dom riders in the buses in the South.
Mr. President, it seems to me that,
whatever one may think about the
undertaking of the mission, these are
American citizens, and we have a great
tradition of law and order in our coun-
try. I know government can only do
what it can do consistent with realities,
but this principle does not extend to a
failure to prosecute those who are guilty
of crimes. I hope very much, even if
7483
the .state of Alabama does not feel it
can or should give police protection to
these people who are riding in buses in
accordance with the laws and the Con-
stitution crf the United States, who are
entitled tolevery protection-if the State
of Alabama feels the mob is overwhelm-
ing Its authority and the State cannot
exercise it -that the United States will
enforce the laws of the United States.
We have express criminal laws in this
regard.
I thnk 'the Attorney General of the
United States is showing a commendable
initiative in stepping into the situation
and ]', for !one, wish to express my sup-
port of hii'ri.
Mr:President, I have sent the follow-
ing relegrann to the Attorney General of
the United States:
Iaxa deeply shocked and concerned by re-
ports of violence, injury to persons and
destruction of property in Alabama involv-
ing burning of an interstate bus and attacks
on persons iii the Birmingham. bus terminal.
These reported actions constitute clear vlo-
lation of tl:{e civil rights of American citi-
zens E,nd vi ration of Federal law, including
18 U.S.C. i3 dealing with destruction of
interstate motor vehicles, and. 18 U.S.C. 241
involving conspiracies against the rights of
citizens. T' ere may well be other specific
Fede:r..l Stat :tes, as well as possible need for
further legislation, involved in these situa-
tions. I tryst no effort will be spared to
bring to justice those who took part in these
incidents. would deeply appreciate your
advisilig me, as to the plans of the Depart-
ment of Justice for taking action in these
cases.
M.". President, I hope very much that
those who are guilty of violations of the
law will be prosecuted. :[ hope very
much the country will take note of what
these struggles mean and how they are
attended by violence, by personal injury,
and by disgrace to the good name of the
United States throughout the world. I
hope very much these ideas may also
have their . effect upon the decent citi-
zens cf the States in which these terrible
acts i:re taking place.
STA'T'E DEPARTMENT BLUNDER IN

Mr. PROXMIRE. The amendment
would change the method of allocation
of Federal funds from a grant system
to a system of sharing Federal income
taxes with the States. The amendment
in no way would disturb the distribu-
tion which has been arrived at, very
painfully, by the Committee on Labor
and Public Welfare. The amendment
would provide a very real and definite
philosophical basis for State control
over education.
Mr. JAVITS. Mr. President, I sub-

measure, Senate bill 1021, and I ask that
it be printed and lie on the table.
The PRESIDENT pro tempore. The,
amendment will be received, printed, and
will lie on the table.
Mr. JAVITS. Mr. President, I ,,sub-

THE PRESIDENT'S LETTER ABOUT
SACRIFICES FOR THE UNITED
STATES
Mr. DIRKSEN. Mr. President, some
time prior to May 15, Mrs. Alicia Patter-
son, editor and publisher of the news-
paper Newsday, in New York, addressed
to the President of the United States a
letter in which she asked him to specify
the sacrifices he was asking Americans
to make.
On May 15, the President addressed a
letter to Mrs. Patterson; and it is re-
produced in the New York Times of to-
day, May 16. I think the letter is of
sufficient importance to merit wider cur-
rency; and, for that reason, I ask that
the letter be printed in the body of the
RECORD, as a part of my remarks.
There being no objection, the letter
was ordered to be printed in the RECORD,
as follows:
TEXT OF PRESIDENTS LETTER ABOUT SACRIFIC-
ING FOR UNITED STATES
GARDEN CITY, LONG ISLAND, May 15.-Many
thanks for your wire of May 4. i appreciate
your interest in our Nation's needs and the
spirit that motivates your telegram.
Apparently the demands of the cold war
are not as dramatic, and thus not as well
identified, as the demands of the traditional
shooting war-such as rationing (which we
do not need), it doubling of draft quotas
(which would not help), or an increase in
personal income taxes (which would only im-
pede the recovery of our economic strength).
But that does not mean that nothing is
being asked of our citizens. The facts of
the matter are that all the programs I am
seeking to strengthen our economy, our de-
fenses, our image abroad, our balance-of-
payments position and our foreign policy
tools-all make demands upon one or more
51SIONIAALRREC D -- SEN f2t00E160029-6 May 16
groups of Americans, and most often upon
all Americans jointly. All of them involve
some effort, some inconvenience, or some
sacrifice--and, indeed, they are being op-
posed in some quarters on that basis.
SEEKS CUTS FOE DEFENSE
For example: I have asked that we pro-
vide a leaner, more efficient defense estab-
lishment by terminating certain projects
and closing a good many bases, although
there are many protests from those who want
economy practiced in someone else's com-
munity. I have asked that a major effort
in foreign aid to other nations be maintained
for many years to come, as burdensome as
some regard it. I have asked young Ameri-
cans to serve without pay or comfort in a
Peace Corps for underdeveloped countries;
I: have asked many talented individuals to
give up a higher income to serve their coun-
try in public office (and not all have been
willing to do so); and I have asked all Gov-
ernment officials to give up any incompatible
financial interest.
I have asked that our excise and corpora-
tion tax rate not be permitted to fall as
scheduled by law--that trucking companies
and jet airline companies pay a higher tax
for the highways and airways they use-
that our business corporations pay a higher
payroll tax for improved Social Security,
unemployment compensation and health in-
surance--and that certain taxpayers give up
their privileges of expense account living in
yachts, hunting lodges, night clubs, and all
the rest. I have asked all Americans to help
meet our deficit through higher postal rates.
These requests for sacrifice are being
strongly resisted by some unwilling to pay
the price of national greatness.
ECONOMIC APPEALS NOTED
I have asked other Americans to contri-
but to the strengthening of our economy by
paying a decent minimum wage ---or to give
up their rights to purchase as many duty-
free goods when they are traveling abroad-
or, if they are farmers, to accept the limita-
tions of our feed grain program. I have
asked our businessmen and labor leaders,
through my advisory committee, 'to adopt
price and wage levels consistent with our
economic goals and need to compete; and,
more directly, I have asked them to take
steps that will avoid harmful work stop-
pages in our missile and space effort.
I have asked the newspaper industry,
without much success, to exercise more self-
restraint in publishing intelligence data
helpful to any enemy. My messages on ed-
ucation, urban afairs and natural resources
have all stressed the role the local commun-
ity must assume if we are to make the most
of our schools, our cities and our water and
other resources. We have made clear our
very strong request to employers, labor un-
ions, and indeed all citizens for an end to
racial discrimination.

Senate is a vital aspect of the political
game. Failure to know this and act upon
it is to open a Pandora's box of unwanted
and unnecessary troubles, and to exacerbate
the very difficulties that need curing.
The Cuban invasion was launched on Sun-
day night, April 18. The State Department
did not make an effort to get in touch with
Senator MonsE, the chairman of the sub-
committee that is directly responsible for
Latin-American affairs, until April 26, more
than a week later-and then only in re-
sponse to Senator MORSE'S second urgent
telegram asking for information,
The first MORSE message, a telegram to
Secretary Rusk asking for a briefing "in
keeping with the spirit of the advice and
consent clause" of the Constitution, was not
even acknowledged, so far as can be deter-
mined. And yet it never should have had
to be sent. Mr. Rusk and his lieutenants
should have reacted automatically to the au-
tomatic need to tell the top men of Congress
what was going on. The reaction should
have been reflex, not forced by a telegram
asking for news of what happened.
Senator MossE dispatched his first appeal
for information on April 24. When no reply
came, he sent his second on April 26, this
one asking Under Secretary of State Chester
Bowles to come up and talk to the subcom-
mittee on April 28. But Mr. Bowles replied
that he couldn't make it.
Until that moment, Senator MORSE was
punctilious in refraining from anything re-
sembling pressure tactics. He knew that
Messrs. Rusk and Bowles had a major crisis
on their hands. He did not want to ob-
struct or confuse or get in the way.
ALMOST BLEW TOP
But when he got Mr. Bowles' refusal, he
almost blew his top-and for a very interest-
ing reason. He knew that high officials in
the administration, including Mr. Bowles
and Chip Bohlen and MacGeorge Bundy and
others, had been briefing large numbers of
editors in the State Department auditorium
on the inside story of Cuba. He'also knew
that some of his Senate colleagues were seri-
ously embarrassed when they were asked by
these same. editors to give their assessment
of the scene behind the scene-and had to
beg off because they had never been shown a
glimpse of it.
