ROBERT SMITH: : v'; Mail .Tribua CorxWpondtnt t Washington The theme of the' attack by . Sen. ' Wayne ;J(lotSe on the resolution asked .fey- President v Eisenhower : to ' 'tupport use of American forces 'in defense of Formosa and "re flated 1 territory" was that "Am . erica; must ' take the ' calculated 'risks "of 'peace ' as well as the 1 calculated risks of war if it ' is to ' preserve its integrity . as, a peaceful nation and, its fea'di ; tioij of . never .attacking unless ;attack'ed.t .-. ; - - i In: opening Senate debate on the question -after hearing two days of secret testimony in the . Morse declared he strongly, fa vors defending Formosa and the nearby 'Pescadores islands "100 miles 'from the, China coast,rfor two j reasons: - . --i ; 1 Tbe U.S. has a right in . terms of international law to protect these islands. They had been held by the Japanese from 1895 (under the treaty of Shim ' ; onoseki r with ; China .'following tthe Sino-Japanese waTuntil Word War ILTjapaK Renounced r title - to -them- under its peace 'treaty with the U.' S. ratified in 1952, and no other country " has acquired ;title to Formosa and the Pescadores, meanwhile. So an attack' from China would be an act of international ag gression by the Reds. Morse' ad vocates a U.N. trusteeship over them. :.. 7 , :'S;: -V;,;-'. ' . 2. Formosa is regarded by the U.S. as one link in its de - iense line in the . western Paci fic ; which extends - from': the Aleutians. to Australia. ... -; Opposes Pf ens of Islands ' - , Just as strongly, Morse ; op poses 'American intervention in the various close-to-shore islands now-? occupied by1 Chinese 'Na- ' tionalist troops, notably Quemoy and the.. Matsu islands that are within; fie miles of : the ..Oiina - coast, for these reasons:,, . : j These ; islands" - nearthe ' mainland have historically '. been; Chinese'.' territory and ae.'. so today, though they are still, sub-:' ject:td conflict between the Na tionalists ''and' the Communists who have fought for control of all China thie past 10 years. The under ! international -law, , would , be intervening f in ; the Chinese . civil war if it support ed -with American forces -Chiang's defense; of these islands - against the Reds.' . :y,; '; '; No- military - leader has -..: contended that : Formosa cannot be defended successfully unless Quemoy and the ' Matsu islands : are also in friendly hands. ; ' 3." To include, these islands within . America's defense per imeter would enhance the opportunity- of Chiang - Kai-shek getting us .involved in a full scale war with the: Reds,' which Morse , believes .the .Nationalists think is "their only hope of sur ; vival -in the long run.". He . said. the resolution -placed ; 'the . fate ; of the: American people in the ; hands' ot " the Nationalist 3 Chi ; cese; knowing that if they fol low -a course of action that leads to war; we are in it with them.'- . 4. Adm. Arthur. W. Radford, chairman of the joint chiefs of staff, would be Willing to launch an attack against the mainland to thwart a - buildup of Red strength which might be used to' attack these islands yet "he does 'not guarantee" that' we would not have to follow up by landing foot soldiers in China! "' Morse believes this would 'cer tainly lead to an all-out war which America could not afford morally or militarily to wage, for '"if "We go into such' a war. we; are not going to end it in a hday or in a year, or in" 10 years." He ' said atomic and hydrogen bombs would not subjugate the broad expanse of China, ; but that .it.;;would require U.S. sol diers ; to i conquer: ; and occupy the country, after years of guer illa warfare. ' 5. - This country must take the calculated risk of peace that is consistent with America's his toric: foreign policy of trying to promote peace by not attacking the Reds unless they ; actually cross" the Formosa strait. to at tackiFormosa or any ther terri- try behind .that defense line; . ;. "Can we .. defend Formosa without ? , threatening to 1 bomb any concentration of military force on : the - mainland:, of China?," asked ' Morse.' "I have not heard- any - high American official, civil or military, - 'say we could not.' They do say that we run a greater risk, militarily speaking, if we follow- that course of action." -; ' "But that is what I have call ed the calculated risk of peace," Morse declared,' "in contrast with the calculated risk of war, which I think is speeded up and greatly" increased -by the reso lution in its present ; form.' I think we had better bold firm to our historic policy,' to which there' has been no exception of which.-1 know,- never to commit an act - of war. until an act ; of war has been" first committed against: us."'i.--'; ',; - ;v c , '.'I ' think the- implication of the joint resolution in that we are going to strike on' thermain land ;6f China, ' when those in charge : of - our . -military '.opera tions have reached the conclu sion ;-that the -enemy r is: about to : attack .us. This iamounts, , in fact to authorizing -by this; reso lution a. preventive war," Morse told the Senate.; -l-xst fl have ; always been opposed to the preventive-war philoso phy.;! have always felt that the talk of a preventive war ;does not ".promote, peace . and '.. a preventive : war? means- not a little, war,', not a , police' action, but a total war. So I . anf oppos ed to the resolution in its pres ent form because to alL .intents and purposes 1 consider it to amount to a quasi-legalization of a preventive - war S.1 and we cannot " reconcile a ' preven tive war with America's historic policy of peace which I have outlined."- - - .y- Shady Cove Trail Nc Shady Cove-Trail Students of Mrs. Ted Conway's 7th grade at the;Shady .Cove', school' held a homemade candy sale, students bringing .candy they " had made : themselves. : They , turned $2, part oi the proceeds, over to the March' pf Dimes., ..'. ;. ;V ; .Mr. and; Mrs. Ernest Segessen man of Shady Cove are in Port land pn.a business trip..-.: ':-.V : '.
