Calling the Kennedy Admin stration’s handling of Cuban r latlons a “comedy of mistakes,” Senator Barry Goldwater (Rep, Ariz.) lashed out at current lpol~ icy Wednesday in a student press conference. Goldwater told a “standing room only” audience in Rob- erts theater that America’s “be firm with Cuba" policy had been “far short of what was needed since the first inetiec- tive embargo on Cuba." He further said, “I don’t think Russia wants to fight over Cuba. lf 1 were Khrushchev, l would not risk losing everything when I’m winning." THE CONFERENCE which was modeled after Washington Presi— dential press conferences was co. sponsored by Sigma Delta chi and Theta Sigma Phi, men’s and women’s professional journalism fraternities. Goldwater defended “brink- manship" as the means of keep- ing the peace. He compared air supremacy of the United States —the power behind brinkman~ ship—to the English naval su- premacy which guaranteed "a fair degree of peace” in Europe for two centuries. Describing the conditions nec~ essary for disarmament, Gold- water demanded complete inspec— tion privileges. He thought in- spection might he best accom— plished by a network of spy sat. ellites. He called the disarmament proposals of President Kenne- dy “dangerous and threatening to the national security," con— cluding the fundamental road- block to disarmament to he “We just can't trust them." Moving to domestic issues, Goldwater outlined his policy on the i ississippi incident. He attacked the intervention of the Federal Government on the grounds of constitutionality. The senator argued that “the 1054 Supreme Court decision on seg— SENATOR BARRY GOLDWATER receives his inia—l tion swat which gives him membership in South Younker hall from Dave Kennedy, President of the Young Republi cans. t rcgation did not go far enough," because it did not reserve the power of enforcement to the Federal Government and that it is therefore reserved to the states by the 10th amendment. He found the actions of Covert nor Barnett constitutionally valid; but morally wrong by his own standards.

Goldwater claimed that freer dom versus slavery is the real issue of our times, the 1962 elec— tions, and all times. THE SENATOR urged Ameri— cans to reject materialism and to recognizestheir spiritual tra— dition. Goldwater said. “The great gulf between the U.S. and Russia is theological. For the Communists, man is a creature who wants his belly filled and a thing which can he manipu— lated. The Communists 'freedom, what for?” The Senator argued that for Americans, man was not a thing , but an immortal essence. 1n the Contrasting views of man that he' ascribed to East and West, Gold— water found an irrevocable para~ dox, the spiritual versus the ma— terial. in this context, Goldwa- ter asked. “Why not victory?” The Senator wamed Ameri- cans not to overlook the prin- ciples of the founding fathers, especially inalienable rights. “Man has natural rights, be. cause mall is made in the im- 1 age of GorL The dignity of man, liberty under God, Law, and ordered freedom are the moral objec- tives of the American tradition and Western civilization,” Gold- water said. “In the struggle with Commu- nisf we must be resolute and , firm.
