BACK THE PRESIDENT

President Eisenhower seems tc
be disturbed over the situation
in the Middle East and is moving
actively to organize an aggressive
foreign policy for this area.
While this action comes a little
late and while the United States
is certainly partly responsible for
the threatening debacle in that
area, it is nevertheless a move
in the right direction.
However, it is disturbing to
see some Democrats, and others,
who oppose some of the details
of the Presidents plan, attacking
his program. What is needed at
this time is unanimity of purpose
and resolve concerning our policy
in the Middle East.
Those who criticize the lack of
policy in Washington claim that
our aggressive policy will alien
ate the Arabs in the Middle East
because it is too militaristic. 9th

on the assumption that there is
no actual Soviet military threat
in the area.
We look upon such statements
with suspicion. While everyone
has a right to his opinion, it
seems pretty clear that Soviet I'M
dercover designs on Middle East
ern countries have reached seri-
Gus proportions. And some of the
same sources which criticized
our policy before the President
made his recent positive an
nouncement are now cr~iticizing
the Presidents recommendations
as militaristic.
Mr.. Eisenhower's plan may not
be perfect. However, it is a
strong policy, designed to keep
Communism out of the Middle
East. We think every American
citizen should support it in the
hope of saving this strategic area
of the world from a fate similar
to that of the Eastern European
satellite countries. This is a time
when Americans should adopt a
bipartisan attitude in support of
our Middle East program.
