"Our problem is essentially one of uncontrolled power which, in the manner of all bureaucratic bureaucracies, governs in its own interest and in accordance with its own parochial view of the world. It is the problem of a vast bureaucracy going con siderably beyond the Pentagon, embracing the in timately associated industries where increasingly the line between what is public and what is private can't be distinguished; and to all its outriders and intellectual allies in the Department of State and the intelligence agencies, including members of the congressional Armed Services Committees.

Since this power was born in an age of fear, it will be curbed only as we resist fear; only as we resist the temptation to scurry for cover when anybody talks about communism; only as we look upon the world, communist and non-communist, with a certain calm intelligence."
