Last April the twelve North Atlantic Allies were congratulating themselves on plans to build up between 30 and 40 divisions by 1955. Actually, that blueprint was as inadequate as the Italians' humanitarian rifles. In the view of top military men in Washington, to contain a Russian offensive Western Europe needs an integrated army of 50 to 70 well-equipped, well-led divisions, backed up by a husky tactical air force-and it needs them a lot sooner than 1955.

Labor relations are human relations, and cannot be governed by formulae. As Seanlon says, in describing the plan: "The adult process of sitting down and slugging out problems together requires a change of attitude." This is the one absolute requirement for the success of the plan.
