foreign policy several months ago called attention to the fact
that our foreign policy is too important to be left to the gov
ernment alone. It should be the concern of 165,000,000
Americans. For since 1945 Communism has made tremend
ous gains. At that time there were less than 200.000.000 peo
ple behind the iron curtain, now there are more than 900
million and the totalitarian ruler s are united in one objective
of keeping their Communist world, despite the fact that ap
parently Russian leaders have liberalized their views. In
addition to this, nearly 500 million people have chosen to
remain neutral and have refused to ioin any kind of a collec-1
five security system. The senator points out that these neutr
al nations can now afford this luxury because other nations
have undertaken the burdens of security for them.
Collective security is certainly necessary, but • p to now
its faults have been great. In the Korean war, only 17 of the
60 United Nation members supplied armed forces or other
sources employed, while the U.S. supplied about 90 percent
and 95 percent of other resources. And since World War II.
our grants and loans to other nations have amounted to over
52 billion.
The California senator questioned our ability to survive
prolonged burdens of building a collective secur ity and sup
porting the neutral nations at the same time. Looks like wo
may be building a bunch of fence sitters, who want part of
the gravy but none of tho responsibility.
Trying to build security by enlisting the aid of other na
tions is not the only economic problem. There is a group in
congress who want to override the administration’s recom
mendations in keeping up with the Jones or- ahead of Russia.
If no technical advance could be foreseen this would be fine,
but by the time we could build our air strength so there
would be no question as to our superiority, the machines we
build today may be obsolete tomorrow. Look what has hap
