US. and the West
Must Give Help

Yet all this does not mean
that our Nation and the West
and the Free World can only
sit by. On the contrary, we
have an historic opportunity to
help these countries build their
societies until they are SO
strong and broadly based that
only an outside invasion could
topple them. And that threat
we know can be stopped. We
can train and equip their
forces to resist Communist-sup-
piled instructions. We can help
develop the industrial and ag-
ricultural base on which new
living standards can be built.
We can encourage better ad-
ministration and better educa-
ton and better tax and land
distribution and a better life
for the people. All this, and
more, we can do because we
have the talent and the re-
sources to do it, If we will only
use and share.
I know that there is a great
deal of feeling in the United
States that we have carried the
burden of economic assistance
long enough, but these coun-
tries that we now are support
ing stretching all the way along
from the top of Europe to the
Middle East down through Sal
gon are now subject to great

A Fitting Time
For Aid Hearings

1t was fitting that Congress
opened its hearings on our new
foreign military and economic
aid programs in Washington
at the very time that Mr..
Khrushchev's words in Vienna
were demonstrating as nothing
else could the need for that
very program. It should be well
run, effectively administered,
but I believe we must do it.
And I am hopeful that you, the
American people, will support
it again, because I think it is
vitally important to the secur-
ity Of these areas. There is no
use talking against the Com
munist advance unless we are
willing to meet our RESPONSE
bilities, however, burdensome
they may be.
I do not justify this aim
merely on the ground of anti
Communism. 1t is a recogni-
ton of our opportunity and OBJ
legation to help these people
be free. And we are not alone.
I found that the people of
France, for example, were do
ing far more in Africa in the
way Of aiding independent ma
tionS than our own country
was, but I know that foreign
aid is a burden that is keenly
felt, and I can only say that
we have no more crucial obli-
cation now.
Evening star., 1961-06-07

and from our conversations
have come agreed steps to get
on with this work. Our day
in London, capped by a meet
ing with Queen Elizabeth and
Prince Philip, was a strong re-
minder at the end Of a long
journey that the West remains
united in its determination
to hold to its standards.
May I conclude by saying
simply that I am glad to be
home. We have in this trip
admired splendid places and
seen stirring sights, but we are
glad to be home. No demon
stration Of support abroad
could mean so much as the
support which you, the Amer1-
can people, have so generously
given to our country. With
that support, I am not fearful
Of the future. We must be pa
tient. We must be determined.
We must be courageous.
We must accept both risks
and burdens, but with the will
and the work, freedom will
prevail.
Good night and thank you
very much.

against misery and despair, but
these are not all Communist
inspired.
The Communists move in to
split them, to infiltrate their
leadership, to ride their crest
to victory. but the Communist
did not create the conditions
which caused them. In short,
the hopes for freedom in these
areas which sees too much
poverty and illiteracy, so many
children who are sick, so many
children who die in the first
year, so many families without
homes. so many families with
out hopes, the future for free
dom in these areas rests with
the local peoples and their gov
ernments.
If they have the will to de-
termine their own future, II
their governments have the
support Of their own people, Il
their honest and progressive
measures help their people have
inspired confidence and zeal
then no guerrilla or insurgent
action can succeed. But where
these conditions do not exist
a military guarantee against
external attack from across the
border offers little protection
against internal decay.

Each Knows Better
Where They Stand

Our views contrasted sharp
ly, but at least we knew better
at the end where we both
stood. Neither of us was there
to dictate a settlement or to
convert the other to a cause,
or to concede our basic in
terests, but both of us were
there, I think. because we
realized that each nation has
the power to inflict enormous
damage upon the other, that
such a war could and should
be avoided, if at all possible,
since it would settle no dispute
and prove no doctrine, and
that care should thus be taken
to prevent our conflicting in
terests from so directly con-
fronting each other that war
necessarily ensued.
We believe in a system of
national freedom and indie
pendence. He believed in an
expanding and dynamic con-
cept of world communism, and
the question was whether these
two systems can ever hope to
live in peace without permit
ting any loss of security or any
denial of the freedom Of our
friends. However difficult it
may seem to answer this ques-
ton in the affirmative as we
approached SO many harsh

Cites Two Aims
OF u. S. Policy

Two aims of American for
eign policies above all others
were the reason for the trip:
The unity of the Free World,
whose strength is the security
Of us all in the eventual
achievement Of q lasting peace;
to strengthen the unity Of the
West. My trip was devoted to
the advancement of these two
aims.
Our journey opened in Paris
and closed in London. My talks
with Gen. de Gaulle were pro-
foundly encouraging to me.
Certain differences in our atti-
tude on one or another prob
lens became insignificant in
view of our common commit-
ment to defend freedom. Our
allies, / believe, became more
secure. Our friendship with
them became firmer and the
relation between the two of us
who bear responsibility became
closer, and / hope with marked
confidence.
1 found Gen. de Gaulle far
more interested in our frankly
stating our position. whether
or not it was his own, than in
appearing to agree with him
when we do not. For he knows
full well the true meaning Of an
alliance. He is, after all, the
only major leader Of World
War II who still occupies a po-
sition of great responsibility.
His life has been one OF un-
usual dedication. He is a man
of extraordinary personal char
acter, symbolizing the new
strength and the historic gram
deur of France. Throughout our
discussions he took the long
view of France and the world
at large.

Some Prospect
OF Accord ON Laos

The one area which afforded
some immediate prospect Of
accord was Laos. Both sides
recognized the need to reduce
the dangers in that situation.
Both sides indorsed the con-
cept Of a neutral and inde-
pendent Laos, much in the
manner Of Burma or Cam
bodia, and Of critical i'm
portance to the current con-
ference on Laos in Geneva,
both sides recognized the i'm
portance Of an effective cease
fire. It is urgent that this
be translated into the atti-

efforts internally in many of
them to seize control.
If we are not prepared to
assist them in making a better
life for their people, then I be-
lieve that the prospects for
freedom in those areas are un-
certain. We must. I believe,
assist them, if we are de-
termined to meet the Com
munist invasion.
The burden is heavy. We
have carried it for many years.
But I believe that this fight is
not over. This battle goes on,
And we have to play our part
in it. And. therefore I hope
again that we will assist these
people so that they can remain
free.

intention to outdo US In indus
trial production, to out-trade
us, to prove to the world the
superiority Of his system over
ours.
Most Of all, he predicted the
triumph of communism In the
new and less-developed coun-
tries. He was certain that the
tide there was, moving his way,
that the resolution Of rising
peoples would eventually be a
Communist revolution, and that
the so-called wars Of liberation,
supported by the Kremlin,
would replace the old methods
Of direct aggression and inva-
sion.
In the 1940S and early 1950s
the great danger was from
Communist armies marching
across free borders, which we
saw in Korea.
Our nuclear monopoly helped
to prevent this in other areas,
Now we face a new and differ
ent threat. We no longer have
a nuclear monopoly. Their mis-
siles, they believe, will hold off
our missiles, and their troops
can match our troops. should
we intervene in the so-called
wars of liberation.
Thus, the local conflict they
support can turn in their favor
through guerrillas or insurgents
or subversion. A small group OF
disciplined Communists could
spread discomfort and misery
in a country where the average
income may be $50 or $40 a
year, and seize control there
fore Of the entire country with
out Communist troops ever
crossing any international
frontier. This is the Commu-
mist theory, but I believe just
as strongly that time will prove
it wrong. that liberty and in
dependence and self f-determin-
alton, not communism, is the
future Of man, and that free
men have the win and the re-
sources to win the struggle for
freedom.
But it is clear that this strug-
gle in this area Of the new and
poorer nations win be q con-
tinuing crisis Of this decade.
Evening star., 1961-06-07
NucIeor Test Talks
Stir No Hope

No such hope emerged, how
ever. with respect to the other
deadlock. the Geneva Confer
ence, seeking q treaty to ban
nuclear tests. Mr.. Khrushchev
made 1t clear that there could
not be q neutral administrator
in his opinion, because no one
was truly neutral, that a
Soviet veto would have to ap-
ply to acts Of enforcement,
that inspection was only a
subterfuge for espionage in the
absence Of total disarmament,
and that the present test ban
negotiations appeared futile.
In short, our hopes for an end
to nuclear tests, for an end to
the spread Of nuclear weapons
and for some slowing down of
the arms race have been struck
a serious blow. Nevertheless the
stakes are too important for us
| to abandon the draft treaty
which we have offered at Ge-
neva, but our most somber talks
were on the subject Of Germany
and Berlin.
Imade it clear to Mr.. Khrush-
chev that the security Of
Western Europe, and, therefore,
our own security, are deeply in
volved in our presence and our
access rights to West Berlin,
that those rights are based on
law, not on sufferance, and that
we are determined to maintain
those rights at any risk and
thus meet our obligation to the
people Of West Berlin and their
right to choose their own future.

Full and Frank
Exchange of Views

I went to Vienna to meet the
leader of the Soviet Union, Mr..
Khrushchev. We met in sober
intensive conversation, and I
believe it is my obligation to the
people, to the Congress and to
our allies to report on those
conversations candidly and
publicly. Mr.. Khrushchev and
I had a very full and frank
exchange of views on the major
issues that now divide our two
countries.
I will tell you now that it
was a very sober two days.
There was no discourtesy, no
loss of tempers. no threats or
ultimatums by either side. No
advantage or concession was
either gained or given. No
major decisions were either
planned or taken, no spec
tacular progress was either
achieved or pretended. This
kind of informal exchange
may. not be as exciting as a
fUIl-fledged summit meeting
Evening star., 1961-06-07
Khrushchev Said
Reds Would Win

Mr.. Khrushchev in turn pre-
sented his views in detail, and
his presentation will be the sub
ject Of future communications,
but we are not seeking to change
the present situation. A binding
German peace treaty is a mat
ter for all who were at war with
Germany, and we and our allies
cannot abandon our obligations
to the people Of West Berlin.
Generally, Mr.. Khrushchev
did not talk in terms of war. He
believes the world will move his
way without resort to force. He
spoke Of his nations achieve
ments in space. He stressed his
Evening star., 1961-06-07
Reds Not Creators
OF All Disorders

Mr.. Khrushchev made one
point which I wish to pass on.
He said there are many dis
orders throughout the world,
and he should not be blamed
for them all. He is quite right.
1t is easy to dismiss as Com
unist-inspired every antigov-
ernment or anti-American riot,
every overthrow Of the corrupt
regime or evey mass protest
Evening star., 1961-06-07
Presidents Reasons
For Seeing Premier

But I bear the responsibility
Of the Presidency Of the United
States, and it is my duty to
make decisions that no adviser
and no ally can make for me.
1t is my obligation and respon-
sibility to see that these deci-
sions are as informed as pos
sible, that they are based on
as much direct first-hand
knowledge as possible. I, there
fore, thought it was Of i'm
mense Importance that I know
Mr.. Khrushchev, that I gain as
much insight and understand
ing as I could on his present
and future policies.
At the same time, I wanted
to make certain that Khru-
shchev knew this country and
its policies, that he understood
our strength and our deter
mination and that he knew
that we desired peace with all
nations of every kind.
I wanted to present our views
to him directly, precisely, real
istically, and with an oppor-
tunity for discussion and clari-
fication. This was done. No
new aims were stated in pri-
vate that have not been stated
in public on either side. The
gap between us was not in such
a short period materially re-
duced, but at least the chan
nels of communication were
opened more fully. At least the
chances Of a dangerous mis-
judgment on either side should
now be less, and at least the
men on whose decisions the
peace in part depends have
agreed to remain in contact.
This is important. For nei-
ther of us tried to merely please
the other, to agree merely to
be agreeable, to say what the
other wanted to hear. And Just
as our judicial system relies on
witnesses appearing In court
and on cross-examination in
stead of hearsay testimony, or
taffidavits on paper, so, too,
was this direct give-and- take
fof immeasurable value in max
ting clear and precise what we
considered to be vital. z
For the facts Of the matter
are that the Soviet and our
selves give wholly different
meanings to the same words
war. peace, democracy, and
popular will. We have wholly
different views of right and
wrong, Of what it is that is an
integral affair and what is
aggression, and above all, we
have wholly different concepts
of where the world is and
where it is going.
Only by such a discussion
was it possible for me to be
sure that Mr.. Khrushchev knew
how differently we view the
present and the future.

Reminder in Britain
Of Western Unity

My stay in England was
short, but the visit gave me a
chance to confer privately again
with Prime Minister MacMil-
Ian, just as others of our party
in Vienna were comforting yes
terday with Gen. de Gaulle and
Chancellor Adenauer.
We all agree that there is
work to be done in the West,
