Consider Force To Protect Oil Flow WASHINGTON (JTA): Defense Secretary Harold Brown said that the "protection or the oil flow from the M iddlc East is clearly a part or our vital interest" and "in protection or those vital interests we will take any action that is appropriate, including military force." He said the U nitcd States would follow the same policy ir any Middle Eastern country was threatened by a major power beyond its borders. Brown made those statements on the CBS-TV program "Face The Nijtion" when he was asked ir the U.S. would go to war to protect the Saudi Arabian oilfields. (Sen. Henry Jackson (D.Wash.) offered a similar view .) Rcrcrring to his recent I I-day visit to Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Israel and Egypt, the Defense Secretary said he found the major concern in those countries was possible threats from outside their borders. He said the U.S. has begun to discuss a more active presence in the Middle East with various nations in the area. According to Brown, "Less instrusive and less obvious forms or U.S. presence or possible U.S. military influence such as ship visits and so on arc clearly the right way to begin such activities and I think they may be as far as we want to go."
