REPORTS FROM THE UNITED STATES SENATE
Illi l \i 1 1 I) S I V1 Is has come a long wav in the devel
opnicnt ot sophisticated weapons ssstems tor the protection ot
our count! v and our people Xow we are engaged in a conflict
over still anothei dclense progiam Ihe Anti-Ballistic Missile
Svstem. designed as a protective ties ice lor our missile sites and
proposed bv President Xixon. will soon be before the United
Slates Senate tor consideration.
I have alwass felt it vital tor out government to deal with
tire Soviet Union ami ant possible aggressors from a position ot
strength. In todav's explosive world, we have a highlv potent
< ommunist Russia armed to the teeth on one side, and Com
munist ( bin.i with the potential Io somcdav become equally
as powerful -on the other. It would be risks indeed lor us to
speak 11 om anything less than a position ol strength.
I DO SOI PRI || \|) ip be an cxpcil on technical defense
mallets. I have considered al length and base given much weieht
to ti e recommendations of the Senate Xrmed Services Committee
ami to outstanding scientists ami engineers. I heir arguments that
the \RM will greatlv enhance out national securitv ami strengthen
out military deterrent to aggression, have convinced me ol the
desirability ot adopting this program
With the recent buildup ol Soviet ollensive weapons, it is
tell that the I SSR could acqutte a lit st-strike capability by the
n "4 1 11 about the same time that we expect Red ( hina to
have developed a nuclear force great enough to pose a threat.
Also, the value ot om Polaris ami Poseidon forces will likely be
lessened as the Soviet Union continues to perlect its highlv
sophisticated undersea detective devices
" 1 " " XI SI R be absohilelv certain that this svstem is
necessatv lor the continued protection ol our nation. But the
risk ot finding out by not adopting it seems fat too great.
It is sobering to contemplate the possible destruction ol our
country and (he loss ot millions ol lives We may never be sure
that the adoption ol the ABM svstem was necessatv Those who
stand in opposition to the \BM mas be tight But il thev ate
wrong then who is to take the responsibihtv ’ I will support the
President on the adoption ol the \HM
