Little attempt has been
made TO do this. The Presi-
dent, In his two speeches TO

prepare our people for q
harder life than they pres
entity enjoy. We have treated

We have failed to grasp
two fundamentals Of foreign
policy: That II you are out
TO defeat an opponent with
or without war. 1t is better TO
overestimate than underesti-
mate him and to concentrate
everything on the effort. Or
II you want peace on the
basis OF mutual accommoda- y
ton. seek 1t the moment you
are the stronger.
Our leadership has done
neither. And the failure Is

mist Obduracy rooted IN the
denial Of freedom and the
Illustration Of Justice. There
has been no deviation from
this unfruitful pattern OF
Communist thought and be-
hayior since the first days
when the Soviet Union Inn
posed the berharous division
Of the peninsula upon the
Koreans and defied the good
will and good purposes Of
most OF the free world. IL
Is wishful thinking. now, TO
look for some sort Of proper
compromise on the basic
issues. The Communists sim
ply do not want and will not
tolerate such . step.
'For this reason II is
doubly important that the
United Nations position be
made uneQuivocally clear.
The Communists can rely
upon the desire Of the
free world TO keep the peace.
and they obviously hope to
freeze the Korean situation
into q permanent stalemate
until II suits their purposes
TO strike again. What the
United Nations can do. In
response. Is to keep up an
unremitting moral pressure
against the wrongdoers and
10 maintain its physical as
well as moral assistance for
the free Koreans. That road
Is long and painful, but there
can be no turning away from
it,"
This Il adherence TO
American idealisrn and right
ly emphasizes . reliance on
moral force. What Is said
Of the Korean stalemate. Of
course, applies equally TO the
stalemate over the reunifi.
cation Of Germany. There
can be no compromise Of
principle without opening
up wide the roads to appease-
ment which In the end. as
the le30s demonstrated. can
only lead TO war.
