Congress should adopt the Marshall
plan within the next 10 days. Sen
ator Wayne Morse (R-Ore.) said in
an address at Colgate university last
night.
Morse said that although the
Marshall plan "does not guarantee
that we will win the peace," it Is
"our first line of economic defense
against the dangers of a third World
War."
Speaking in the third of a series
of Colgate university lectures on
human relations, the Oregon senator
said he would support Senator Van
denberg (R-MichJ "in opposition to
any amendment which seeks to
weaken the plan."
On politics, Morse said ha be
lieved the republican party would
win the presidential election by the
people "voting the democrats out,
more than voting the republicans
in."
