There are indications because of new inventions, that 10, 15, or 20 nations will have a nuclear capacity, including Red China, by the end of the Presidential office in 1964.

Peace need not be impracticable, and war need not be inevitable.

Unconditional war can no longer lead to unconditional victory. It can no longer serve to settle disputes. It can no longer concern the Great Powers alone.

Mankind must put an end to war--or war will put an end to mankind.
