Must Not Wover
In Support of u. N.

Second, there must be no
wavering in our support for the
United Nations. Some regard
the United Nations exclusively
in terms Of its shortcomings;
others would reduce our support
for it to a reluctant minimum.
True, the United Nations, in
seven years of life, has fallen
short of its peace objectives.
But the whole world has fallen
Shorthand for reasons which
are plain to all of us. Should we.
then, surrender our objective?
OF course not. Peace is our
objective. The United Nations is
an instrument of peace. Our
aim must be to make 1t con-
tinually more vital and ef-
fective.
There must be no wavering in
our support for the North At
lantic alliance which was
founded within the limits of the
Charter of the United Nations.
Even those who blindly opposed
it when it was launched will
admit that it has stopped the
spread Of communism in Europe
and the Mediterranean. Our
security agreements with other
American countries and the
peoples of Asia and the Pacific
must be similarly supported.
Third, we must state our pur-
poses in positive rather than in
terms Of negative containment.

British Laborifes Rap
Ya|u Raids as Threat
OF EnIarging War
BY the Assoei1ted Press

LONDON, June "a. Labor
party leaders protested In the
House of Commons To-Day that the
attacks on the Yalu River power
plants threaten to extend hostil-
tiles in Korea.
Prime Minister Churchill ad-
mitted he had no advance notice
of the bombings but said such at
tackS have the entirely legiti-
mate object of decreasing the
enemy war potential" He added
I'VE reserve all our rights as a
friendly ally for making any pres
entation which might be thought
desirable"
Mr.. Churchill made his state
ment under fire of members of the
opposition Labor Party, who de-
clared the bombings threaten an
extension o. hostilities because
much Of the power from the
plants Is used in Manchuria.
No Change of Policy.
ATTACKS such as these now re-
ported do not appear to us to in
volve any extension of the opera
tions hitherto pursued" the Prime
Minister said. "or to go beyond
the discretionary authority vested
in the United Nations supreme
commander.
80 far as his majesty's govern
ment are concerned there has
been no change of policy"
Former Prime Minister Clement
Attlee, leader of the Labor Party,
protested that the mass bombings
represented the destruction of
very important establishments
which affect the whole of Man
churia."
THAT kind of policy" Mr.. Att
lee declared. was surely one that
should not be embarked upon with
out full consultation. especially
in view of the fact that discus
sions for an armistice are now
taking place."
Mr.. Churchill conceded that no
such consultation with his maj
esty's government has taken
place." He continued:
"We are in an extremely difficult
and delicate position-the whole
OF this Korean war being carried
forward during armistice negotia-
tions from which we have suffered
serious disadvantages.
Avoids Criticism Of Clark.
"It has been intrusted by the
United Nations to supreme COM
mander of the United States and
I am not going to be drawn into
saying anything which in any way
will be taken as a reflection upon
that commander or embarrass him
in any action he may think 1t
necessary to take"
The supreme commander is
Gen. Mark Clark. who recently
succeeded Gen. Matthew Ridgway.
Aneurin Bevan, voice OF the
Labor Party's left wing, denounced
the bombings as an irresponsible
action" with a declared politi-
cal intention" He said Britain
should consider seriously the
consequences to world peace"
Emanuel Shinwell. minister Of
defense in the last Labor gov
ernment, said he saw "a. prospect
Of this affair emerging into a
full-scale war" He urged Mr..

Text of Gen. Eisenhowes Speech Attacking |soutionists

DENVER, June 24.-Here Is
the prepared tert OF Gen. Eisen-
hoper's foreign policy address
last night:
In the quiet of my room here
in Denver. I want to talk to you
this evening in your home. I
want to discuss simply-serious-
ly-the problem that is closest
to all our hearts: the problem Of
peace, and the methods avail
able to America to secure for us
a peace that will be lasting.
Since the time we thought
peace had been won in 1945,
the tragedy of death Of a son
on a distant battlefield has been
visited upon thousands of our
homes. The prayer in every
American family is that their
son will be. spared.
I want to talk tonight es-
pecially to those families. want
to talk to the young man facing
his turn to serve in the armed
forces; to the student whose
studies may be interrupted; to
the young husband and the
young father who may be sepa-
rated from his family and to his
wife who is left alone. Certainly,
those people should know some-
thing of the aims and aspira-
tions and programs that can
justify their heavy sacrifices.
May make this one per-
sonal reference? I have entered
upon a serious political under
taking. Among the reasons
which led me to take that step,
no consideration weighed so
heavily as the argument of my
friends that the responsibilities
entrusted to me through the
last 10 critical years and the
knowledge derived from that ex-
perience would enable me to
serve our country, effectively.
in the cause of peace. No other
cause could so completely enlist
me. In brief, I occupy my
present position in this politi-
cal race primarily because I be-
lieve that peace may well be at
stake.

Korean Political Feud
Believed Approaching
COMPROMISE Solution
BY the Assoeiafsd Press

PUSAN, Korea. June 24.-A

dent Syngman Rhee.
Details were not divulged.
Assemblyman Oh Sung Whan
a member of the group trying tt
end Korea's month-long political
crisis, said P. M. Shinicky and
other opposition leaders have
promised to support the COM
lpromise.
Weeks Recess Seen.
There was some talk that the
Assembly would recess for a week
Ito permit lawmakers to reach
agreement.
This development came as 500
rural supporters Of Mr.. Rhee
squatted on rice straw mats in
front of his house. Refusing to eat

election and a two-house congress.
The hunger strike began more

the election of president by the
Assembly one month before the
incumbent's term expires.
Mr.. Rhee's term was supposed to
deadline for an election. But Rhee

supporters in the Assembly pushed
through a bill extending his term
until August Is and providing that
he remain in Office until a success

not control the 183-member
Assembly but opposition law
makers have boycotted the Assem-

port this stupid and myopic
doctrine.
II Communist political and
military penetration should take
over sources Of necessary raw
materials indispensable to our
economic survival, and If the
great productive resources of
our present allies were added to
the Communist holdings, we
would be in desperate plight.
A gaunt and naked America
would be encircled by a savage
wolf pack.
This bleak scene could be our
lot If we heed the false prophets
Of living alone - who preach
that we need do nothing except
maintain a destructive retalia-
tory force in the event the
Russian armies should march.
Why should armies march If
the Communists can count on
mere political conquests such as
they achieved in Czechoslova-
kia? When political commissars
: do the job, the Red Army can
save Its ammunition for other
targets. This will be the result
of a retreat by us into iSola-
tionism.
But it will not happen if we
firmly maintain a high order
Of collective security. I can give
you this evening only the
briefest outline Of the political
program which fits the situa-
tion.
First, we must make sure that
every nation-ourselves, our
friends, and the Iron Curtain
countries-underStand the sin
cerity of our devotion to peace.
We reject all talk and proposals
Of preventive war-there is no
such thing. Live men and happy
familieS-not stuffed doves-are
the symbol of our purpose.

Need Access to
Worlds Far Corners

Now. in this problem Of our
security and peace there is one
central fact from which all our
other reckonings must proceed.
That central fact is a shrunken
world in which distance has
been almost obliterated and
there has developed an unprece-
dented and increasing interde-
pendence among the nations.
BY discovery, by invention, by
Evening star., 1952-06-24

advancing methods Of produc-
ton and the skills of labor, each
portion of the world, including
mighty America, depends upon
other parts for materials it
must have.
In their daily lives, Americans
use an abundance of material
things beyound the dreams of
any previous time. To get the
raw materials to produce these
things, we need access to the far
corners Of every continent.
From those places we obtain the
items in which we are short
or completely lacking, such as
tin, tungsten. manganese, CO.
bait. chrome and unranium.
Almost every mechanical item
we produce for any military or
civil use depends upon these
imports. Without imports, for
example the television or radio
set you are now using could not
have been manufactured.
Today. into this interdepend-
ent world has come a terrible
threatening force; the force of
aggressive communism. I have
seen that force at close quarters.
1t is cunning. it is goddess. it
aims to destroy all freedom
and most Of all, yours and mine,
because America is its final and
chief target.
The men who direct that
force have a vast power.
Already, without scratch on
a single Russian soldier, they
have swept nation after nation
into slavery. They have moved
closer to the sources of supply
on which our existence depends.
Their undertaking strategy is to
continue to close in until, final
ly. they can destroy our econ
omy and our freedom. And,
often. their purpose is better
served by political capture of a
weakened country than by
armed aggression. In this way,
they gain valuable resources
for themselves as they deprive
us Of equal amounts.
The Communist threat against
the free world creates a need
for political and military ar
rangements that will preserve
the safety of all and assure the
continuance of vital commerce.
Evening star., 1952-06-24

the responsibility for the defense
OF those areas upon their own
populations. Moreover, the pro-
gram Of military development
must never proceed at such
pace as seriously to threaten
our solvency and economic
strength. If this should happen,
we would have no security.
Communistic Worlds
Unity Is Evident
Finally, we must lead the free
world-East and West-toward
a singleness Of purpose that we
ourselves must exemplify.
We need a broadly based. in
spired leadership that will
promote understanding Of all
these issues. More Importantly.
it must preach faith instead Of
cynicism. courage and conf
dence instead Of defeatisn, hope
instead Of despair. unity instead
of pleading for special and self
ish interest.
I know something about war:
its strategy. its requirements.
its tragic cost in blood and
treasure, its horror and its
criminal waste. Therefore. I
shall not rest as long as I can
contribute to the cause Of peace.
The peace America seeks is
not a matter of formula alone.
1t Is a vital, living. driving
force. 1t must be deeply felt and
instinctively understood by the
men who are in a position to
lead us in the cause Of peace.
A plan for peace that Is merely
paper and words will destroy
the confidence of our allies and
shatter the faith Of our own
people in the future of the
United States.
