Even at its devalued level, the British pound has a higher
face value than other major world currencies. Since World
jh t I" 05 / counJr ’ es hav« pegged their money to the
dollar. The face value of the dollar, in turn, rests on the
policy of the U.S. Treasury to buy and sell gold at $35 on
ounce. Should the United States raise the price of gold, it
would amount to devaluation of the dollar. The Soviet
ruble, its value arbitrarily set by the Kremlin, is outside the
interlocking chain of western currencies and not affected
‘'v the British devaluation.

Political Decisions in War
Beyond Scope of Military
By RAY CROMLEY
NEA Washington Correspondent
WASHINGTON (NEA)
As Robert McNamara prepares to leave the Pentagon, a
great deal of misinformation is being spread about the atti
tudes of this country’s senior military officers.
It is easy to picture men in uniform as smoke-snorting war
mongers anxious to charge here and there.
Actually, the present top hierarchy in the Pentagon is
heavily laced with very cautious men extremely leery about
getting into any war and intensely worried about the United
States becoming militarily involved too deeply in any over
seas area.
Among Pentagon military men there are mixed feelings
about the purely military worth of our sustained bombing of
North Vietnam. Basically, the bombing was instituted for
political-psychological reasons. That is, the purpose was
psychological, to wear down Ho’s will to carry on the war. It
was a White House, not a military, decision.
The recent McNamara-Joint Chiefs of Staff arguments over
bombing were less arguments for or against “all-out” bomb
ing than arguments over whether this type of target or that
was more important. Sometimes, in fact, the targets for
which some military men argued would have “escalated” the
war less than the targets which McNamara and the President
chose.
In any event, in a war it is the duty of a military man to
present what to him are militarily the most effective targets
It is not within his competence to decide on the political con
siderations. He bows, not in disagreement; rather, he bows
because he is concerned with only a part of the problem.
Take an example in World War 11. When Eisenhower’s
forces were advancing in Europe, he sent messages to Wash
wgt?nE.statmg that mi ßtarily it would be wise for U S and
tLhL K°A e u n * *u rces ta adv . ance as quickly as possible to
Berlin, but that there might be political reasons for holding
our forces back (and allowing the Russians to move in first)
