Editorial: Is the National Will Weakening in the U S
Joseph Alsop argues in Reader's Digest that the United States stands close to disarmament of physical and moral will. He cites leaders fearing America may not fight after Vietnam unless forced, with allies shifting positions in Thailand, the Philippines, and Korea. He warns of gaps in Laos, Turkey, Portugal, and the Middle East, urging a regeneration of national will to prevent a French and British policy failure of the 1930s.
