Radar defense and UN drive amid postwar anxieties
The piece argues for a border to border radar network and new rocket interceptors to deter long range missiles, while urging strong UN action including the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and genocide convention. It cites Spaatz and Louis XI Ridenour on costs, effectiveness, and the need for international control of atomic energy to prevent another Pearl Harbor. It also reports on Walter Bedell Smith's Moscow dispatches and the high cost of basic goods in the Soviet Union as context for peace and security concerns.
