...proposal requires a quid pro quo and leaves nothing to guesswork. If Moscow really wants to end the peril of fallout (the Moscow test series last October gave North America the heaviest dose of radioactive material ever), it has no excuse for further delay. Meanwhile, as soon as the President lifts the ban on underground and space testing, U.S. planners can get on with sorely needed nuclear development (clean bombs, anti-missile missiles, compact Army and Navy weapons and pure-science experiments) at a time when such strength can be the tranquilizer for Communist-inspired tensions in Germany, the Mideast...

Says he: "I know perfectly well that to take office under the British administration means to take the political kiss of death. But what's the alternative? Integration?

...television's real potential.
