TOKYO. Friday. July 6 -65V
Crov. Thomas . Dewey called to
day for a world peace based on a
buildup of strength by free na
tions and "not a mere peace of
surrender or appeasement
The twice-defeated republican
presidential nominee declared the
United States was not afraid of
the "continuing threat of warlike
communist aggression" because of
its vast industrial might
He said that through unity and
buildup of "overwhelming
strength' the free world may look
forward to the "gradual exhaus
tion and disintegration of the
communist forces of slavery and
aggression."
In a speech prepared for dellv
ery before the America-Japan
society and for broadcast to the
United States, Dewey asserted that
the U. S. "will never be the one
to start a war in any conceivable
set of circumstances.'
, "The people of America and of
the free world," he said, "are
building their strength for the sole
and exclusive purpose of prevent
ing war.
"The United States will never
attempt to use other nations for
purpose of aggression. All these
contemptible methods we leave to
the Imperialist aggressors.
"We do not believe war is in
evitable. "We are dedicated to the high
purpose of making peace inevit
able.
"It-must be a peace of strength
