In Vietnam Debate Priest Says Push; Lawyer Calls Halt By JOHN JUNKIN'* or thr Kmrrald The United States should take steps to begin negotiation to end a role in South Vietnam that is illegal, ineffective, unecono mic and immoral, said Charles Porter. Appeasement encourages ag gression and is the cause of war, according to the Rev. Daniel Lyons. Thus went the two opposing points of view in a debate on the Vietnam war Thursday be tween the former U.S. Congress man and the Jesuit priest. Porter's initial address main tained that escalation of the war may lead to World War III and withdrawal would ex pose thousands of South Vietna mese to terrorization by the Communists. He concluded that a cease - fire armistice was the only so lution with ensuing negotia tions. “Unless each of us sacrifices to end the conflict, we must all share the blame for war. Our salvation lies in both words and actions,” he said. “We must show Johnson the offensive must stop.” Lyons began by saying Pope Paul has called for peace in Vietnam, but that he has advo cated peace without freedom. He then quipped, “The Pope has called for no more war but then Christ asked man to sin no more.” The world can be divided among those who want to re sist aggression and those who do not,” he said. He charged Porter with not being opposed to Communist aggression, and then asked, “What will he do when Ho Chi Minh wants to take Thailand and the rest of South east Asia?" “We gave up Laos with nego tiation,” he said, “and the Viet nam war has been made pos sible only through Laos.” He claimed the answer to ending the war was the block ing of Haiphong harbor. If the dredges that keep the silt out of the harbor were sunk, 80,000 tons of material a month would be kept out of North Vietnam. This is a war of aggression, not a civil war, he stated. In the rebuttal, Porter said the aggression must be stopped by collective action in the Uni ted Nations, "no matter how frail it might be.” He further opposed the argu ment that "we must support the boys.” Pounding the table, he asked, “Do we slaughter more because we slaughtered some?” Lyons countered him by say ing that when the bombing is stopped, 700.000 will be freed to increase “aggression” on the South. The United Nations refuses to touch the issue, he said. The communist nations would block any action against the North, he added. He called U Thant a friend of Russia, and said he has nev er called for the North to stop its aggression.
