AND ESPIONAGE PROBLEMS AND WILL WORK DIRECTLY WITH THE PRESIDENT
THE RECALL OF GENERAL TAYLOR, WHO ALREADY HAD BEEN ACTING AS
WATCH~;~,TBA1Y, IS INTERPRETED IN
tTIL?MATICXIRCLES IN THIS CAP AL AS NEW EBIDENCE OF PRESIDENT
KENNEDY'S AGGRESSIVE FOREIGN POLICY. "TAYLOR IS, IN EFFECT, ONE OF
aST k J R ri;;: _4,,0F THE UNITED STATES AND FOR E
TIME HAS BEEN AN ADVOCATE OF SO-CALLED LIMITED WARS."
TAYLOR LEFT THE SERVICE ON 30 JUNE 1959 AS A RESULT OF A
SQUABBLE WITH PRESIDENT EISENHOWER. LATER HE PUBLISHED A BOOK
ENTITLED, "THE UNCERTAIN TRUMPET," IN WHICH HE SEVERELY CRITICIZED
PRESIDENT EISENHOWER FOR NOT MODERNIZING THE ARMY AND PUTTING
IT IN CONDITION TO WAGE LIMITED WARS.
TAYLOR ALSO IS A MEMBER OF THE SO-CALLED "MILITARY AND INDUSTRIAL
CONFERENCE", (CONFERENCIA MILITARINDUSTRIAL) A SUPER ORGANIZATION
OF GENERALS AND INDUSTRIAL AND FINANCIAL MAGNATES, WHICH WAS

rr= THE SOCIALIST
LAST YEAR TAYLOR WAS THE PRINCIPAL SPEAKER AT THE CONFERENCE.
IN THAT SPEECH HE DRAMATIZED THE "MILITARY DANGER WHICH THE
SOVIET UNION PRESENTS TO THE UNITED STATES," WITH THE OBVIOUS
PLPOSE OF STIMULATING A WARMMONGERING HYSTERIA IN THIS COUNTRY
AND GIVING IMPETUS TO THE PENTAGON'S ARMS DRIVE.
"GENERAL TAYLOR'S RETURN TAKES ON A SPECIAL IMPORTANCE FROM THE
POINT OF VIEW OF 'PARAMILITARY WAR ACTIVITIES,' WHICH PRESIDENT KENNEDY
BELIEVES "REQUIRE POWER, DISCIPLINE, AND DECEIT,' AND OF
WHICH TAYLOR IS AN ADMITTED AND RESOLUTE ADVOCATE."

IN THE OPINION OF OBSERVERS, THIS STEP CAN ONLY MEAN THAT
PRESIDENT KENNEDY IS PREPARING TO INTENSIFY THE POLICY OF
SUBVERSION, PROVOCATION, AND ESPIONAGE THROUGHOUT THE WORLD: ESPECIALLY
IN LATIN AMERICA, THE FAR EAST, AND ASIA MINOR.
