to/in the/at editor/nn of/in the/at New/jj York/np Times/nns :/:
For/in the/at first/od time/nn in/in history/nn the/at entire/jj world/nn is/bez dominated/vbn by/in two/cd large/jj ,/, powerful/jj nations/nns armed/vbn with/in murderous/jj nuclear/jj weapons/nns that/wps make/vb conventional/jj warfare/nn of/in the/at past/ap a/at nullity/nn ./.
The/at United/vbn States/nns and/cc Soviet/nn Russia/np have/hv enough/ap nuclear/jj weapons/nns to/to destroy/vb all/abn nations/nns ./.
Recent/jj statements/nns by/in well-known/jj scientists/nns regarding/in the/at destructive/jj power/nn of/in the/at newest/jjt nuclear/jj bombs/nns and/cc the/at deadly/jj fall-outs/nns should/md be/be sufficient/jj to/to still/vb the/at voices/nns of/in those/dts who/wps advocate/vb nuclear/jj warfare/nn instead/rb of/in negotiations/nns ./.


	President/nn Kennedy/np was/bedz right/jj when/wrb he/pps said/vbd ,/, ``/`` We/ppss shall/md never/rb negotiate/vb out/in of/in fear/nn and/cc we/ppss never/rb shall/md fear/vb to/to negotiate/vb ''/'' ./.
I/ppss have/hv just/rb returned/vbn from/in a/at seven-week/jj trip/nn to/in Europe/np and/cc the/at Far/jj East/nr ./.
It/pps is/bez quite/ql evident/jj that/cs the/at people/nns of/in Western/jj Europe/np are/ber overwhelmingly/ql opposed/vbn to/in participation/nn in/in a/at nuclear/jj war/nn ./.
The/at fact/nn is/bez that/cs the/at Italians/nps ,/, French/nps and/cc British/nps know/vb that/cs they/ppss have/hv no/at defense/nn against/in nuclear/jj bombs/nns ./.
We/ppss have/hv no/at right/nn to/to criticize/vb them/ppo ,/, as/cs they/ppss realize/vb they/ppss would/md be/be sitting/vbg ducks/nns in/in a/at nuclear/jj war/nn ./.


	We/ppss should/md stand/vb firmly/rb and/cc courageously/rb for/in our/pp$ right/nn to/in free/jj access/nn into/in Berlin/np ./.
It/pps would/md be/be criminal/jj folly/nn if/cs the/at Communists/nns tried/vbd to/to prevent/vb us/ppo ./.
But/cc there/ex is/bez nothing/pn we/ppss can/md do/do to/to stop/vb Soviet/nn Russia/np from/in granting/vbg de/fw facto/fw recognition/nn to/in East/jj Germany/np ./.
Soviet/nn Russia/np has/hvz been/ben invaded/vbn twice/rb by/in German/jj troops/nns in/in a/at generation/nn ./.
In/in the/at last/ap war/nn Russia/np lost/vbd more/ap than/in ten/cd million/cd killed/vbn and/cc its/pp$ lands/nns and/cc factories/nns were/bed devastated/vbn ./.
Probable/jj agreement/nn
The/at truth/nn is/bez that/cs Communist/nn Russia/np fears/vbz the/at resurgence/nn of/in German/jj militarism/nn ./.
Berlin/np is/bez merely/rb being/beg used/vbn by/in Moscow/np as/cs a/at stalking/vbg horse/nn ./.
Actually/rb ,/, the/at Communists/nns ,/, out/in of/in fear/nn of/in a/at united/vbn and/cc armed/vbn Germany/np ,/, would/md probably/rb be/be willing/jj to/to agree/vb to/in a/at disarmed/vbn Germany/np that/wps would/md be/be united/vbn and/cc neutral/jj and/cc have/hv its/pp$ independence/nn guaranteed/vbn by/in the/at U.N./np ./.


	If/cs the/at Communists/nns are/ber sincere/jj in/in wanting/vbg a/at united/vbn ,/, neutral/jj and/cc disarmed/vbn Germany/np ,/, it/pps might/md well/rb be/be advantageous/jj for/in the/at German/jj people/nns in/in this/dt nuclear/jj age/nn ./.
It/pps could/md provide/vb security/nn without/in cost/nn of/in armaments/nns and/cc increase/vb German/jj prosperity/nn and/cc lessen/vb taxation/nn ./.
France/np and/cc other/ap Western/jj European/jj nations/nns likewise/rb fear/vb a/at rearmed/vbn Germany/np ./.
If/cs the/at German/jj people/nns favor/vb such/abl a/at settlement/nn we/ppss should/md not/* oppose/vb Germany/np following/vbg the/at example/nn of/in Austria/np ./.


	President/nn Kennedy/np has/hvz urged/vbn a/at peace/nn race/nn on/in disarmament/nn that/wps might/md be/be called/vbn ``/`` Operation/nn Survival/nn ''/'' which/wdt has/hvz many/ap facets/nns ./.
Why/wrb not/* make/vb a/at beginning/nn with/in a/at united/vbn and/cc disarmed/vbn Germany/np whose/wp$ neutrality/nn and/cc immunity/nn from/in nuclear/jj bombing/nn would/md be/be guaranteed/vbn by/in the/at Big/jj Four/cd powers/nns and/cc the/at United/vbn States/nns ?/. ?/.
A/at united/vbn Germany/np ,/, freed/vbn of/in militarism/nn ,/, might/md be/be the/at first/od step/nn toward/in disarmament/nn and/cc peace/nn in/in a/at terrorized/vbn and/cc tortured/vbn world/nn ./.

In/in your/pp$ Sept./np 27/cd editorial/nn appraisal/nn of/in the/at work/nn of/in the/at First/od Session/nn of/in the/at Eighty-seventh/od Congress/np you/ppss referred/vbd to/in the/at lack/nn of/in ``/`` consciousness/nn of/in destiny/nn in/in a/at time/nn of/in acute/jj national/jj and/cc world/nn peril/nn ''/'' ./.
Yet/rb your/pp$ list/nn of/in things/nns left/vbn undone/vbn did/dod not/* include/vb repeal/nn of/in the/at Connally/np amendment/nn to/in this/dt country's/nn$ domestic/jj jurisdiction/nn reservation/nn to/in its/pp$ Adherence/nn to/in the/at Statute/nn of/in the/at International/jj Court/nn of/in Justice/nn ./.


	The/at Connally/np amendment/nn says/vbz that/cs the/at United/vbn States/nns ,/, rather/in than/in the/at court/nn ,/, shall/md determine/vb whether/cs a/at matter/nn is/bez essentially/rb within/in the/at domestic/jj jurisdiction/nn of/in the/at United/vbn States/nns in/in a/at case/nn before/in the/at World/nn Court/nn to/in which/wdt the/at United/vbn States/nns is/bez a/at party/nn ./.
If/cs the/at case/nn is/bez thus/rb determined/vbn by/in us/ppo to/to be/be domestic/jj ,/, the/at court/nn has/hvz no/at jurisdiction/nn ./.


	Since/cs the/at Connally/np amendment/nn has/hvz the/at effect/nn of/in giving/vbg the/at same/ap right/nn to/in the/at other/ap party/nn to/in a/at dispute/nn with/in the/at United/vbn States/nns ,/, it/pps also/rb prevents/vbz us/ppo from/in using/vbg the/at court/nn effectively/rb ./.
