To the Editor:
As professor Schaub notes, reorganizing the Defense Secretary's office would not solve the structural problem of a weak State Department. The civilian input, oversight and control that is needed is that of an officer of state answerable to the Secretary of State, not a regional deputy defense secretary, answerable to the Pentagon.
