I think the Senator from Vermont is very enlightening as to the timing of that crisis--also following right in the aftermath of World War II, certainly another time where this country faced a very grave threat, leading into the beginning of the Korean war where the country again faced another enormous threat. I wonder if the Senator can comment on how that experience should be instructive to the Senator's amendment. It seems the Senator has foreseen the kind of timetable of bringing back from these various directorates their preliminary plans that would lead to a far more insightful and, I think, constructive reorganization than the one that is contemplated by the proposal of the administration.
