Peiping continue to display
their present good will, there
is a too-deep-rooted suspicion
as to their real objectives to
accept their olive branches
without fear that they may be
poisoned.
The executive and legiSla-

that regardless of how much
the cold war in Europe and
the shooting war in Asia may
subside, this country must
continue with a full defense
program. And Formosa forms
today a portion of that pro-
gram which we cannot afford
to neglect.
The political philosophy
which prevails these days in
Washington that "peace must
be real and indivisible, other
wise it is not worth having"
is the soundeSt we have had
in many years. There can be
only little purpose in signing a
make-believe peace in Korea.

f1anks open to other potential
Red aggressions.
We may save casualties
temporarily by agreeing to a
treaty on a f1imsy basis. but
the consequences may be
greater sacrifices in a year or

to launch aggressive actions
somewhere else.
A temporary peace for the

vert to complete isolationism.
