My very distinguished oppo-
nent has already had occasion
to disagree with conspicuous
Republicans on foreign policy
issues. He has differed sharply
with members of his party who
have assailed the American ac-
ton in Korea to stop and turn
back Communist aggression. He
has gone further to set himself
against the views of important
members of his party who have
called for enlarging the Korean
War.
I think he has done us all a
service by saying these things.
He knows. as every realistic
American knows, that if we had
not chosen to fight in Korea,
sooner or later we would have
had to fight q bigger war some
where else. The memory of
Munich is still fresh. The quick
er aggression is stopped the bet
ter. And, as it is. even with all
the heartbreak and suffering
and cost of Korea - even with
the Illustration of the long stale
mate over the armistice-it is
quite possible that out action in

the conflict within the party he
now heads. Carrying out an
effective, positive. forward look

in the executive, but also in the

a large proportion of his party's
members in the Senate. and
more than half Of them in the
House. have consistently op-
posed what he approves? And
if elected-he would probably
carry back to Washington with
most Of the same Republicans.
But the Republican leaders
evidently have a solution for
this dismal dilemma because
their vice presidential candidate
the other day asserted his belief
that Republicans in Congress
who have opposed our BIZ
partisan foreign policy will
change and reverse their atti-
tude if their party is successful
in this election. Il thought
they were talking about the
election but maybe this is what
they mean by "it's time for a
change"). Must we conclude
from this that a lot of Repub-

political reasons? Should mat

entrusted to men who trade
their convictions SO lightly? I
may be naive but don't think

Happily the Democratic Party
is united on foreign policy. We
have our differences. If we

are not over foreign policy.
Democratic support of this
policy is no new. sudden, con-

We have worked for the build:
ing Of that program from the

help of some far-sighted Re
publicans like Arthur Vanden-
