"Many people, perhaps, felt the pendulum went
too far in the direction of black3 and minorities in
the past " he said. "But, unfortunately, the pendu

Ross said the "good old boy" networks which often
exist in the military can negate the work of affirma
tive action. He said the only way the system can be
held intact a through proper use of the Inspector
General's office. The IG checks maintain progress in
areas such as human relations, he said.
Ross joined the military in the mid 1050s, and
retired after 20years. He said he encountered many
problems during that time, not the least of which
was staying in one rank for more than 1 1 years with
no promotion. He is a survivor, he said, and often
laughs when he looks back on the "old days."
"You have to laugh to keep from crying," he said.
Although the Soviets have a new leader in Kon
stantin Chcrnenko, Glagolevsaid he doesn't expect
the new administration to deviate from past foreign
policy standards.
Chernenko is a specialist on communist ideology,
and has been a main advocate of it throughout his
career, he said.
Glagolev said the United States must not expect
Soviet leaders to abide by the agreements they sign,
because they violate these agreements immediately
after they sign.
"The Soviets were never going to abide by the
Helsinki agreement," he said, "and we know per
fectly well, without any additional verification, that
the Soviet Union has broken the charter of the Uni
ted Nations thousands of times."
Despite all the historical fact, Glagolev said, the
United States refuses to recognize the Soviet mil
itary threat. Rather, he said, many "are aiding the
disarmament and movement toward a greater
nuclear possibility" by calling for a nuclear freeze.
Glagolev suggested that before the Soviet nuclear
threat is reduced, the United States must do four
things:
restore U.S. strategic deterrence
organize cooperative and collaboration among
nations against communist expansion
organize cooperative and collaboration among
Soviet leaders and citizens who want to resist com
munist rule by using the Voice of America and other
Western radio stations
stop financing of Soviet bloc countries because
the money these countries receive in aid and loans is
used entirely to strengthen communist influence.
