...Democrat who has been hammering away at the importance of the Third World debt issue for years. He praises the Bush Administration for realizing that "the answer to the problem of too much debt is not more debt but less." That may sound like mere common sense, but Republicans must overcome a distrust of giveaways and interference in the private sector. "It is an ideological breakthrough," says former Assistant Secretary of State Robert Hormats...
...wipe out the benefits that Nick Brady has made possible." Meanwhile, the U.S. trade deficit is provoking protectionism, which would make it harder for developing countries to work off their debts by exporting their products to a key market. If the U.S. is really going to help, debt reduction must begin at home. Otherwise, the promise of the Brady plan -- along with much of the rest of America's influence abroad -- will be squandered. That, truly, would be unforgivable...

It will only reduce the numbers of various missiles, and inspectors will have to determine how many small cruise missiles are carried aboard bombers and possibly even submarines. Differentiation must be made between nuclear-tipped and conventionally armed cruise missiles, even if they look alike. A method will have to be found to keep track of mobile missiles. With all that, the supreme challenge will be how to prevent new production of banned weapons at secret locations...
...will it be easy to monitor proposed reductions in conventional forces in Europe. Thousands of armored vehicles and artillery pieces will have to be destroyed by NATO and the Warsaw Pact, and hundreds of thousands of troops demobilized or redeployed. The treaty language must precisely define differences between aircraft capable of carrying either conventional or nuclear warheads. Under previous verification standards, that task would be hopeless: satellite photography and electronic sensors are not sophisticated enough to count warheads on a missile or peer inside production plants...
Tact and tenderness may be a lot to expect from someone who must spend roughly twelve years learning the trade, work impossible hours, be available to patients day and night, keep abreast of changing technology and live a peaceable life while constantly dealing with death. "The patient wants the best of both worlds," charges Lester King, a Chicago physician and medical historian. "He wants the knowledge and precision of the most advanced science, and the care and concern of the old-fashioned practitioner...
