Portland/O bservar H atfield hits continuing w a r 7,5 S en a to r M a rk H a tfie ld (R Ore.) issued the following statement in W ash ing to n, D.C. on A pril 12th: "The course of U.S. actions in Cambodia in recent days brings bark memories of the early stages of this country's intervention in Vietnam. I fear the pattern of secret co m m itm en ts and public denials is being repeated. I am profoundly worried and concerned over the pre sent tre n d of even ts in Indochina. My anxiety has intensified since questioning State Departm ent and I,e fense Department officials at a classified session of the Foreign Operations Subcoin mittee of the Appropriations Committee. We are achieving neither peace nor honor in Indochina. Developments in the past days heighten the unpleasant but unavoidable truth that the U.S. is not out of Indo china and that we are on the verge of more, rather than less, involvement in the con tinuing Indochinese war. The conflict in Cambodia is basically a civil war this should be made clear to everyone. Cambodians are fighting Cambodians, and yet me side is being besieged by U.S. bombs dropped from U.S. planes flown by U.S. pilots. Innocent civilians are being killed by those bombs. Our bombing, our m ilitary aid, our airlift and sealift of supplies, and even further steps, such as supporting another |>oesiblc South Viet narnese invasion of Cam bodia, all are seen as India pensable for the survival of the Ixin Nol government. Yet, Congress and the Am eri can public repeatedly are told that the Administration has no commitment' to that government. Such hypocrisy must halt. No shred of constitutional authority nor any legal justi fication exists justifying our military actions in support of the Ixin Nol government. U.S. efforts to insure ixin Nol’s survival fly in the face of clear Congresional direr live spelling out that author ized m ilitary and economic aid shall not constitute a commitment to the defense of Cambodia. Executive autocracy must not be allowed to trample the Constitution and the will of Congress. W e are inter vening in another civil war. We are killing innocent peo pie. We are violating the Constitution of the United States. We are ignoring the law of the land. In the words of the prophet Jermiah: They say 'peace, peace’, when there is no peace. L e t this be clear: The Administration should expect no funds from Congress for continuing this way while boasting about peace." 7:30 p .m , Thursday, April 19, 1973 - Public Forum, McCall Tax Relief Plan, at the Washington High School cafeteria. 531 S F 14th A m - nue.
