PRESIDENT ASIA--VIETNAM

1
1.3C\77-3:1-17eooit rs ortits.'
Mr;j5,4ANSPDSLD...-Mr. President, last
night, at Johns Hopkins theeenete.lee
President of the United States delivered
an address of profound importance tit
the people of the Nation. It is to be
hoped that Ina remarks will echo- In
Vietnam and southeast Asia, in China
and the Soviet Union. and that their.,
significance will be appreciated through-.
out the world.
Me. Johnson dwelt upon the nfeantell
of the conflict in Vietnam and the Mir-
Poses for which we have engaged our-
selves in that distant land. They are.
as he made very clear, the ptirPoses of
freedom, not of conquest; and of con-
struction, not destruction. We seek the
security of our freedom through the se-
curity of ethers, not by the domination
of others.
The President left no dotibt that, this
Nation prefers the course of peace, to
Asia, not a year . hence or 11- months
hence, but as soon as it is possible, to
still the guns of war. We have Pledged
our eminence for more -then a decade
to the people of South Xletnsim. in order
that they may have oPPOrttutitY to, Pare
sue their lives and destiny in freedom.
That is all that we desire in that morel
beset land. If others are prepared to
accept this keystone of peace, peace can
be achieved. ? ? ? ? - ?
The door is open to the statesmen Of
this Nation, of Asia, - Europe, and' the
world to find the Wily to that Pelee. ',',The
door is open to the leaden! of VietnaM.
North and South. to .Ond a wee to put
aside the destructive instruments of war
and take up the tools of national con-
struction. "
. And the President has made clear that
we are Prepared to do out part with other
nations to convert that Pe1100, 01* WI*
obtained, into a dynamic peace, s..Petee
of constructive benefit, not 'mile" to the
People of Vietnam, North and South, but
to southeast Asia ass whole. Mr. John-
son has stressed again, as he stressed in
1081. on his return from southeast Asia,
that the fundamental need of that im-
poverished tomer of the world is not for
the implementa of war, but for the en-
ergies of peace; not for the alienations
of conflict, but for a great concentration
of many nations on the immense social
tasks of education, health, and of ending
human hunger and want.
Mr. President, in the course of inter-
national events, there are inomente'of
Critical decision. Thet this is such
amb-
went was recognised by the Pr?dent In
his profound statement last Wight ?F,e
are at a crossroads In Vietnam, and not.,
only for :the Vietnamese and ourselves;
the entire world trembles at it. It would '
be my hope that there exist in all the nal,
done concerned?and al nations are eon:.
cerned?the wisdom and ..perception ' to'
turn from the skidding Oath to war to the
high road of a dynam10 and constructive
peace in Vietnam and southeast Asia. IL.'
would be my, hope that at Geneva or In.
any forum, large or small, 'this wisdom
and perception will begin to be displayed
without delay. ' -
Mr. Pr?dent, I ask urianhnioue con-
sent that the statement Of the President, .
on Vietnam be printed at this point in the'
Ramie.
There being no objection., the state-1
