ton the sound foundation of moral law and common

enemy in cold war; that losing On the open rec
ord history he considers the Communist leaders to be gull
ty towering crimes against mankind And he notes that
the record Of history shows you cannot do business with
them without injury He declares that in governments
cscn drive for peace people and our government
leaders be made realize that peace in which freedom
and justice will prevail is peace in which Soviet power will
longer be in position to threaten and the rest of the
world.
He claims the real of our continuing defeat in the
Cold War be simply stated Our enemies understand the
nature Of the conflict they determined to win and
We have tried pacify the world The Communists
mean to own it.
He urges that maintain military superiority, keep
America economically strong behave like great power
reflect strength and confidence and purpose well good
will He feels should furnish foreign aid only to friendly
antCommunist nations willing to join with in the strug

encourage captive people revolt against their Communist
