We must be patient and under
standing and never fail them, as
in our hour of need they did not
fail us.
A Christian nation, the Philip
pines stand as a mighty bulwark
of Christianity in the Far East,
and its capacity for high moral
leadership in Asia is unlimited.
On Formosa, the government of
the Republic of China has had the
opportunity to refute by action
much of the malicious gossip
which SO undermined the strength
of its leadership on the Chinese
mainland. The Formosan people
are receiving a just and enlight-
ened administration with MAORI
ty representation on the organs
of government, and politically,
economically and socially they
appear to be advancing along
sound and constructive lines.
With this brief insight into the
surrounding areas, I now turn to
the Korean conflict.
While I was not consulted prior
to the Presidents decision to in
tervene in support of the Repub-
lie of Korea, that decision, from
a military standpoint, proved a
sound one. AS l say, it proved
a sound one, as we hurled back
the invader and decimated his
forces. Our victory was complete,
and u detectives within reach,
when Red China interviewed with
numerically superior ground
forces.
A New War
This created a new war and an
entirely new situation, a situa-
ton not contemplated when our
forces were committed against
the North Korean invaders; a
situation which called for new
decisions in the diplomatic sphere
to permit the realistic adjustment
of military strategy. Such deci-
sions have not been forthcoming.
While no man in his right
mind would advocate sending our
ground forces into continental
China, and such was never given
a thought, the new situation did
urgently demand a drastic re
vision of strategic planning if
our political aim was to defeat
this new enemy as we had de-
feated the old.
