Just as we are now demonstrating to the world that America does not shrink from the task of stopping military aggression. no matter what the cost of sacrifice. so we must assure the world that we are prepared to act with equal courage and sacrifice through the United Nations to check poverty. sickness. exploitation. and injustice. The United States should pledge her full partnership in a United Nations program to achieve those goals of freedom. peace. and security. Our Nation should plan a broad program of economic assistance to the Asiatic area. Mr. President. I hope that before the Eightysecond Congress convenes. before the new Congress comes to Washington. the President of the United States will have drafted a preliminary plan of a broad program of economic assistance to the Asiatic world. I submit that it should not call for less than $500.000.000 within the first year. It should be a program of economic assistance to more than a billion people. that may well determine whether we are to live in peace and in freedom.
