"I haven't faith enough, and maybe imagination enough, to hope to see total disarmament of the world realized," Henry A. Kissinger, Associate Director of the Center for International Affairs, stated last night.

Kissinger told an audience at the first public lecture of the Committee to Study Disarmament that "we are apt to have a war before we have disarmament," but agreed that the United States should negotiate at all times.

Although he emphasized the dangers and technical difficulties of reaching an armaments agreement with the U.S.S.R., Kissinger said he favored negotiation on reducing the danger of radioactive fallout, and setting up reciprocal inspection zones on the borders of the Soviet Union to lessen the possibility of non-nuclear attack.

"Fifty thousand people in the Pentagon and the State Department might come up with something if they put their heads to it," he added.

The other speakers last night were Louis B. Sohn, professor of Law, and Zbigniew K. Brzezinski, assistant professor of Government, who indicated that "no basic world peace" is posible in the context of Soviet ideology.

Package Deal

Sohn called for "a trained army of international military servants" to guarantee peace in a disarmed world, provision for peaceful means of achieving national ends, and commitment to foreign economical aid by the United States. "If you make a package of that," he said, "anybody in his right mind would buy it."

The concept of war as an extension of diplomacy, which is "disappearing"," according to Sohn, is still being used by the U.S.S.R., Kissinger claimed. He pointed to boastings of nuclear power in Soviet diplomatic notes and the bombing of Quemoy by Communist China.

When asked to comment on the most important factor in achieving world peace, Kissinger replied that "the free world is suffering from a lack of moral dynamism." This lack is clearly shown, he indicated, "in the platitudes that Mr. Dulles is fond of using."
