Hope Wones in Southeast Asia
Western Defense Pact in Thot Area Would Be Regarded
AS Virtually Meaningless as Burrier to Red Ambition

Asiatic mainland. with the pos
sible exception Of Thailand.
But 1t would be unrealistic to
expect Thailand to provide
bases for allied forces, or to do
much more than build up and
train larger defense forces OF
her own. A few frowns from
Mao Tze-tung or Malenkoy
would probably change the
minds Of Thai political leaders
in q hurry II they did more.
In the light Of these cir
cumstances. the value Of a
Southeast Asia alliance begins
to look like an Illusion. Even
if a sizeable military force
were to be realized in the area,
its usefulness would depend
largely on the support and
loyalty Of the population In
the affected areas. How can
the free world expect such
support when the protests OF
the Wet Nam leaders were so
casually brushed aside at
Geneva?
The effects Of the Geneva
Conference will serve only tn''
underline the sad realities
first exposed to the world at
Yalta. nine years ago-that
the great powers are incapable
Of defending the weaker ma
'tions. At Yalta, the Allies
charted their course based on
the hope that the q. s. S. r.
would cooperate in the search
for peace through the United
Nations. In the total absence
of any such cooperation, the
nations of the free world have
been demonstrating only an
increasing lack of the will to
resist continued Communist
encroachmentS.
Foreign Minister Anthony
Eden's prideful statement in
the House Of Commons this
week that the world is now
without a shooting war for
the first time since 1945 has

happy fact is that the absence

The Southeast Asia defense
pact belatedly being worked
out in Washington by State
Department and British For
eign Office officials will be
meaningless as a barrier TO
further Communist expansion

American military chieftains
fear.
The projected "SEATO"
pact, the fighting men feel.
will lack the essential element
needed to make it something
more than a collection of pious
platitudes and Understanding
phrases, That element is the
presence of military forces in
being in the areas most di-
rectly threatened by the Red
politico-military strategists.
In Europe, NATO has near
ly 10 American, British and
French divisions stationed be-
tween the Rhine and the Elbe.
Although they may not be OF
sufficient strength to turn
back a Soviet onslaught on
Western Europe. they are able
to resist any such attack with
determination. Their presence
serves as a standing warning
to the Kremlin that any ag-
gressive move of the Red
army westward would be no
blitzkreig. And the Commu-
mist leaders know that even
if the NATO defenders should
be defeated, their resistance
would signal a new world war
in which the United States. at
least, would pour every ounce
of strength.
Allied intelligence reports
indicate that the Moscow
leaders are not yet ready for
q full-scale world war. They
reason that time is on their
side in any event, and are
willing to await the results of
the divisive influences they
see-and encourage-in the
councils of the free world.
Meanwhile. they build up their

The Soviet Union and Red
China have decidedly taken
the place Of the United States
in prestige and power In Asia
as well as in Europe. They have
accomplished this not with
financial grants and unlimited
largesse, but simply by saying
do it our way, or else
Without important military
forces present in Southeast
Asia, our military men see no
chance for an effective defense
alliance there able to overcome
the Communist advantage
Only Nationalist China in For
mosa has a major military
force ready for instant action,
and difference to the wishes Of
our British allies rules out its
use. French troops in Wet
Nam are about to leave; those
in Laos and Cambodia will be
removed as soon as those Indo-
China nations demand it, Pre-
mier Mendes-France has told

they are already at work under
