There was widespread speculation, but no hard facts, on the possibility of concessions by either or both sides to get the talks moving. The U.S. and North Vietnamese negotiating teams were believed making a careful study to "love one another," but we undermine those who stand in the way of our progress If we can manage to do it.

WW PHILADELPHIA (AP) The head of a Philadelphia steel testing firm said Monday the Navy "accepts steel plates defective by its own specifications" for use In building submarines.

"The fact is that the Navy specifies and pays for high quality laminar defect-free steel plates, yet accepts steel plates defective by its own specifications, so long as hopelessly inadequate testing procedures fail to reveal these defects," said Raymond G. Perelman, president of Penn Galvanizing Co. Perelman's comments at a news conference followed a Navy report last Friday that inspection procedures used to determine the required quality of steel used in submarine hulls are valid. The report also stated "the steel used in submarine hulls is of quality that will safely fulfill all operating conditions." Thp Navv also said that a Insurance company adjusters tell us that people will resort steel plates used in the hull structure." Washington columnists Drew Pearson and Jack Anderson last week supported Perelman's charges. They said the Navy had evidence as early as July 15, 1962, that steel producers had "knowingly delivered defective plates" for submarine construction.

"We have examples of rejected and defective plates In our plant," said Perelman. "The Navy does not and cannot deny this."

People claim damages far in excess of what they have sustained. Government at every level is shot through with corruption, favoritism, and cheating, on the assumption that in politics everything is fair. The unhappy truth is that our free society is being undermined by the absence of moral discipline. We need to remember the warning of Arnold Toynbee that in history 21 civilizations have perished, and in each of them the decline of moral discipline was the forerunner of national collapse. On an Egyptian tomb, when the first dynasty was falling into ruin because the moral fibers of the empire had decayed, someone inscribed the words, "And no one is angry enough to speak ou" tween U.S.
