Eisenhower and the Gaither Report: the Influence of a Committee of Experts on National Security Policy in the Late 19501

Leffler, Chairman (ABSTRACT) As the United States reeled from the Soviet Union's launch of Sputnik in late 1957, President Dwight D. Eisenhower received a top secret report prepared by a committee of leading scientific, business, and military experts. The panel, called the Gaither committee in recognition of its first chairman, H. Rowan Gaither, Jr., emphasized both the inadequacy of U.S. defense measures designed to protect the civil population and the vulnerability of the country's strategic nuclear forces in the event of a Soviet attack. The Gaither committee viewed these defense measures--ranging from a missile system to defend the continental United States to the construction of shelters to protect the population from radioactive fallout-and the maintenance of sufficient strategic forces to launch military strikes against Soviet targets as essential for the preservation of U.S. security. It concluded that in the case of a surprise Soviet nuclear attack the United States would be unable to defend itselfwith any degree of success. -

I lusted after the various sports games advertised in the magazines until my mom finally relented and bought Strat-O-Matic Football for me in 1972. I got SOM’s baseball game a year later and I was hooked. I would get the new card set each year and attempt to play the in-progress season by moving the traded players around and turning ‘nameless player cards” into that year’s key rookies. I switched to APBA in the late ‘70’s because they started releasing some complete old season sets and the idea of playing with those really caught my fancy. Between then and the mid-nineties, I collected a lot of card sets. -

Dde Diary Series
EISENHOWER, DWIGHT D.: Papers as President DDE DIARY SERIES SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE The Dwight D. Eisenhower Diaries series consists of an estimated 28,800 pages and is arranged chronologically by month and year. This is a rich and varied body of manuscripts which contains several categories of material. These are described as follows: An estimated 5,200 pages consist of diary entries and dictated correspondence. This material is filed in folders entitled “DDE Diary,” “Personal Diary,” or “DDE Dictation.” Found here are not only diary entries but also copies of letters from the President to government and political associates, and to personal friends. Periodically the President dictated notes for his diary and on other occasions his personal secretary, Mrs. Ann Whitman, recorded appointments and summarized events. The diary was not systematically maintained, however. The bulk of the actual diary entries falls into the years 1953-56. These so-called diary folders were also used as a convenient file for copies of letters dictated by the President. During the later years of the Administration this dictated correspondence was filed in folders labeled “DDE Dictation.” Most issues of concern to President Eisenhower are covered in his diary and letters. These reveal much about the President’s political philosophy in general, as well as his private views on more specific issues such as McCarthyism, the Bricker Amendment, or civil rights. Another prominent category consists of approximately 3,000 pages of memos of telephone conversations. Most of the more detailed conversations are dated prior to 1959. Much, although not all, of the material after that date consists merely of telephone logs or brief entries regarding phone calls. -

DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER LIBRARY ABILENE, KANSAS RANDALL, CLARENCE B.: Journals, 1953-1961 Accession A85-10 Processed by: HLP Date Completed: February 1987 Electrostatic copies of the journals of Clarence B. Randall, steel company executive, chairman of the Commission on Foreign Economic Policy, chairman of the Council of Foreign Economic Policy, and special assistant to the President, were obtained from the Seeley G. Mudd Manuscript Library at Princeton University in January-March, 1985. Linear feet shelf space occupied: 4 Approximate number of pages: 5,800 Approximate number of items: 46 These journals were donated to the Princeton University Library by Mr. Randall’s two daughters, Ms. Mary R. Gilkey and Mrs. Lemuel B. Hunter. Literary property rights in the journals are retained by Ms. Gilkey and Mrs. Hunter.

The first folder of this collection contains an introduction to the journals, which he wrote in 1957. -
Civil Defense Conference, September 9, 1958
Remarks By Senator Hubert H. Humphrey National Civil Defense Conference New York City FOR RELEASE ON DELIVERY September 9, 1958 SEPTEMBER 9, J.958 - .AT A Call To Arms For Civil Defense 1Q:45 A. M. * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * No threat facing our nation today is more dangerous to our security than than that to our civil defense. A major war could conceivably carne at any moment. The past brush wars in the Middle "!Bst and the present hostilities in the Far East could spread over night into a \/Orld-\lide conflagrationo To meet these grave dangers we all agree that we must keep our military strength at its peak if we are to deter a would-be agressor. But all prudent men, it would seem to me, should also agree that we must keep invincible our non-military defenses - most especially our civil defense - if we are to survive in the midst of a possible catastrophe an all-out war might bring. But - Are we doing this1 Are we mald.ILg our civil defense invincible, or as strong as we can'? We are not! Tragically, for reasons difficult to understand or to accept, we are not. The Gap In Our Military Defenses Our military establishment, despite the glowing reassurances made by Administration spokesmen, in reality is in danger of beccming second-rate, it's gravest weakness lies in what one of my colleagues has described as the Gap. While we are on a par with the Soviets, and ahead of them in same respects, there is no question that in other areas of scientific development they are ad vancing at a far faster rate than we are, as many events of the past year prove.
