I did not cosponsor the many resolutions which advocated direct talks between the hostile nations. I still firmly believe that through the efforts of the U.N. and major powers of the world a true peace can be obtained. It is through these bodies that I am looking for economic aid. refugee assistance. and a world leadership and guidance in obtaining a lasting peace. However. I have reevaluated the situation and now believe and would like to be associated with those who advocate that an immediate end to the continuous undeclared war can be found in direct talks between the hostile nations.
