...loss to understand how George W. Ball can believe that U.S. national interest in Berlin is "fundamental" and in Viet Nam only "marginal" [Nov. 7].

The interest of other scientists is understandable. The ice now being preserved in deep freezes at Hanover may contain a wide assortment of nature's rare relics, ranging from evidence of past cosmic-ray bombardment to bubbles of ancient trapped air that will tell much about the composition of the earth's atmosphere...
