Nixon Blames JFK and Johnson for Security Gap
Nixon told readings that eight years of Democratic rule left the United States with a gravely serious security gap compared with Russia. He warned of a looming survival gap by 1970 or 1971 and called for a major Pentagon reorganization and restoring the National Security Council to a leading planning role. He spoke in Reading, Pennsylvania, during a CBS taped security address and toured eastern Pennsylvania, drawing about 10,000 supporters in a mid day rally.
