Hem Confident of Eventually Restoring Peace in South Vietnam
By ROBERT UDICK
Saigon-WPU-South Vietnam
President Ngo Dlnh Diem ia
confident h I s government
will weather a storm raised
by Buddhist leaders and go
on to win over the Commu
nist Vletcong.
"The government has
never practiced a policy
of religious discrimination,"
Diem said. "Thus I believe
that finally all the political
campaigns waged from with
in, as well as from without
iha cnnnirv under this false
nrotpxt will fail by them
selves simply in view of the
government's sincerity."
niom marie the statement
in a four-hour interview with
United Press International on
his government's position. j
H um confident that
within two to three yeara
peace will have been re
' stored in South Vietnam
along with the population's
full rights.
Position Stiffened
By saying his opponents
operated under a "false pre
text," he showed that his gov
ernment's position has stif
fened, and that it Is prepared
to meet any challenge of re
ligous discrimination.
He showed as well that his
government saw the Bud
dhist campaign as essentially
a political one.,
"Hypocritical people at
tack us," Diem said, "Just
like the Pharisees. In addi
tion to the hot war, I have
to deal with a cold war.
He made It clear that he
intended to pursue both the
hot and the cold war with
his present team.
"In classic tradition," he
said, "The Communists seek
to Isolate the president. Their
tactics seek to cut from the
president all people around
him who are valuable.
"They charge that this Is
a family government, a cor
rupt government. There are
those who charge that this
government has lost the sup
port of the people.
But what counts funda.
mentally is this: How can
they claim there is inept
leadership when people wltn
out pay die for their country
every day?
"The charge Is unreason
able and unwarranted."
Reference To Rumors
He also made clear refer
ence to rumors here that
some political groups might
be angling for American sup
port should they try to over
throw him.
"If ever there were Viet
namese politicians whj would
propose a kind of protecto
rate of the United States
over Vietnam in exchange
for support for their in
trigues, such actions would
not fail to harm the friend
ship between the two coun
tries," he said.
Anyone familiar with the
present state of the problems
of underdevelopment and the
Communists jvould find it
difficult to "intoxicate" the
American public, he added.
"All the problems that I
have faced since 1954 are
problems of underdevelop
ment technical, economic
and social backwardness
with the feeling of humilia
tion attached to that miser
able condition, and the desire
to rapidly emerge from it.
"Then there is disunity,
with extremely virulent ide
ological passions which do
not exist any more in ad
vanced countries, and final
ly, the Communist subver
sive war."
Diem said he had little
fear that the Vietcong would
be able to infiltrate in large
numbers. He said they have
to select people they hope
they can depend upon, and
if they tried a massive infil
tration many of their num
bers would go over to the
government's side.
Diem said he welcomed a
change he had found in the
attitude of the United States.
He said it came about follow
ing the visit of Vice President
Lyndon Johnson and the ar
rival of Ambassador Frede
rick Notling, who will soon
be replaced by Henry Cabot
Lodge.
The new attitude was par
ticularly welcome because of
the support that came for the
training and equipping of
the civil guard and the vil
lage guards, he said.
"The newer the indepen
dence of a country the
more passlonaluly are ' the
people attached to it," Diem
said.
In such countries, he said,
it might happen that some
leaders of the "bourgeois
class and a certain number
of intellectuals . . . are less
sensitive to this deep popu
lar feeling."
He said "their oninion as
well as their attitude" does not
"reflect the op-.nlon of the
popular masses."
Diem said the American
public should have a more
"penetrating knowledge of
Communists subversive war,
a total and multifarious war,
war which refuses actual
combat but seeks instead the
moral attrition of the oppo
nent. A war which is fought
on all fronts p o 1 i 1 1 c a I,
economic, social, cultural,
diplomatic and military, a
war which is waged on a
world scale although the
spear's head is aimed only at
a few specific points of the
globe."
Diem said "Another thing
which must also oe brought
tn the knowledge of tha
American public, is the fact
we are forging together in
Vietnam the weapon capable
of victoriously countering;
Communist subversive war,
not only for the sake of
Vietnam, but also for tha
sake of any other placa
where it might e waged.
"One must not forget
either that here we have to
deal with the best Commu
nist guerrilla army which
can exist in the present
world, in terms of clever
ness, experience and toughness."
