...fact, the testimony that the Senators have heard on the treaties so far has been overwhelmingly favorable. One of the few major witnesses to speak out against them has been Admiral Thomas H. Moorer, the former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff; he worried last week that U.S. interests might be placed "in severe jeopardy" some day by the development of a "Torrijos-Castro-Moscow axis."
