Mr. Chairman. the situation is tragic from our American point of view. because. if under the leadership and world program of the Russian Communists they are able to mass against a handful of free. white folks here. such as we are. with our traditions of democracy and selfgovernment behind us. if they are able to amass a force of from a billion and a half to two billion of people against us militarily or economically or any other way. how are we going to maintain the civilization and the wonderful blessings inherited by us from our fathers? So. for this reason I feel that our policy in the Orient has been a most disastrous one in recent years. and I look upon this little group in the peninsula of Korea as the last toe hold we have on the Asiatic Continent at the present moment. These people are worthy. they have a great history. Two thousand years before Christ they had a great civilization. a great religion. a great literature.
