Dear Mr. Weinberger An Open Reply to an Open Letter
By Theodore H. Draper
It is not every day, every week, or even every year that a secretary of defense sends a letter to thirty US newspapers and forty foreign publications. It is even rarer that such a letter is used to defend his administration's policy against alleged inaccuracies and misrepresentations, as if he did not have any other means to put the facts before the public. Yet, on August 23, just such a letter was sent by you on the subject of this administration's nuclear-war policy. (It is reprinted on the opposite page.)
