Insofar as I can see. the answer to that question is clear. In the long run if any U.S. policy is to be successful it must identify our interests and purposes with the interests of the countries of all of Asia. In the long run the world balance of power will not be determined by the degree to which we cater to the whims of the refugee government in Formosait will be determined by our relationship to the balance of free Asia. and indeed. to the relationship of free Asia to China. Free Asia endorses the legitimate measures of the United States to prevent Communist aggression. But when the balance of Asia opposes those provocative aspects of U.S. policy which go beyond the need of containment. when the balance of free Asia registers even a partial lack of confidence as a result of the failure of the United States to establish more constructive relations with China. the evident conclusion is that some change in our China policy would not result in the Communist domination of all Asia.
