Policy Of Strength Grows From Vienna Meeting
From abroad the U S reply began to take shape as warnings to Khrushchev and a steady buildup of U S military strength. Ambassadors explained the president will not be swayed by tactics of hot or cold war and that NATO forces must be strengthened to meet any condition. The year ended with no Soviet action and the U S increased manpower in Europe, resumed nuclear testing, and handed five nuclear submarines to NATO while exploring floating depots in Southeast Asia and aiming to fly two divisions to Europe within days. The policy also relaxed nuclear security so NATO allies know stockpile locations, reducing misjudgment risk while maintaining contact with allies. The president will keep talking but believes the policy of strength is paying off.

It weaves in anecdotes of the Register staffer Peggy Kessinger behind the scenes and a light dig at soothsayers as results prove errant. The piece also strolls through Grandview’s budding dogwood, rhododendron, birds, and atmospheric haze over the river valley, musing on natural scenes and a speculative link to ancient oil sources.
