KS6 in the neas September 19, 2002 — Former Secretary of Defense William Cohen
KS6 an the Hill stressed the acute need for good public
servants following 9/11, in a speech
Wednesday night at the Kennedy School's
ARCO Forum. Good public servants, he
said, are necessary to reconcile the nation's
conflicting needs as the only superpower in
a rapidly changing world.
But the burdens include the increasing military budget, conceded Cohen.
He said such expenditures are putting pressure on other parts of the
budget and contributing to the growing deficit. He predicted that the
nation will continue to wrestle with the benefits and burdens of being a
superpower.

Comment: On July 26, The United States Information Service released this
statement by William Cohen. It had appeared in the Washington
Post.
I ask: Why this emphasis now? The problem has been a threat
for two decades. The technology, such as home-brew anthrax, is
ancient. What is it about today's circumstances that makes this
sort of article timely?
