HOOVER:
A New Foreign Policy
Herbert Hoover demanded a new
foreign policy for the United States
in a major radio-television speech.
He urged the U.S. to concentrate
on holding the Atlantic and Pacif-
ic oceans with the island outposts
of Britain, Japan, Formosa and
the Philippines. He then warned
against sending more men and
money to Europe.
The former president's speech
created a buzz of controversy in
Washington. Democratic officials
called it "rank isolationism" and
even some top G.O.P. policy mak-
ers, including Sen. Robert Taft of
Ohio, did not agree in all respect
with Mr. Hoover.
This is how Mr. Hoover saw the
aituation:
"It is clear continental Europe
has not in three years of our aid
developed a unity of purpose and
that will power necessary for its
own defense.
"It is clear that our British
friends are flirting with appease-
ment of Communist China.
"It is clear that the U.N. is in a
fog of debate and indecision on
whether to appease or not to ap-
l)ease."
He then went on to outline his
seven '*principles and action" for
American policy:
1. Preserve "this western hemi-
sphere Gibraltar."
2. Hold the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans, seeking the cooperation of
Great Britain.
3. Arm our air and naval forces
"to the teeth," free Japan and help
her rearm, and stiffen the defenses
of Formosa and the Philippines,
4. Reduce other expenses, balance
the budget, and roll back inflation.
5. Aid other nations that show
"spirit and strength" in defending
themselves against the Communists.
6. No appeasement anywhere, "no
more Tehrans and Yaltas."
T. Watchful waiting in Europe
pending its own development of
" i
u_n ty and will" to resist ag-
gression.
Much of the criticism against
Mr. Hoover's proposals centered
around the belief that the Pacific
and Atlantic oceans can be made
a defense line. Some critics pointed
out that failure to continue aid to
our friends and allies would isolate
us and eventually we would find
ourselves without any friends in
the world.
President Truman issued a state.
ment shortly after Hoover's speech
which amounted to a firm rejec-
tion of the former president's de-
mand that troops and moey be
Withheld from Europe.
The President said the Atlantic
pact nations had shown they "mean
business" about setting up a com-
mon defense and asserted the pro-
tection of western Europe was vital
to United States security.
"Let there be no mistake." Tru-
man said. "The unity of the nations
f western Europe and the North
tlantic area is vital to their so-
entity and ours."
He then announced that soldiers
of pact nations--presumably in.
eluding U. S. troops--will be train-
ing together "within the next few
weeks."
EUROPE:
Army of 750,000
The 12 Atlantic pact nations
pledged themseh, es to try to match
America's partial war mobilization.
They pledged themselves to build
an unprecedented international
peacetime army of 750,000 men to
stop Communist aggression This
is the army that General Eisenhow-
er will command.
The council concluded its two-
day "conference in Brussels with
the ssuance of a formal communi-
que which included:
1. Establishment of an integrated
force under centralized control and
command. This force to be com-
posed of contingents contributed by
the participating governments.
2. An order to United States.
Great Britain and France to start
negotiations with the Germans to
persuade them to agree to coop-
erate wit' the west in limited re-
armament.
3. Creation of a new defense pro-
duction board "charged with ex-
panding and accelerating" rearma-
ment: it wilt supersede the Atlan-
tic powers old military production
and supply board.
It will be may months however
before General Eisenhower will
have anything more than a token
force. But observers agreed that
at last the western poers have
gotten down to the serious business
of building a defense against com-
munism.
CHRISTMAS:
A False Gaiety
The world--that part which still
celebrates the Birth of Christ --
went all-out for Christmas 1950,
but it was a false gaiety. Those.
parts of the world where there was
no strife could not forget that men
still died believing in the dignity
of man and the principle of free-
dom.
But people tried to make it a
merry Christmas in many lands.
In the United States department
stores recorded near record sales.
Frenchmen, even while many of
them feared it might be the last
Christmas before World War III,
sent sales records to new heights in
the stores, buying for feasting and
giving which would hide from their
children the frayed nerves of their
elders.
Britain, too, was determined to
put the best face on matters and
enjoy the holiday.
Brussels set the tone for Bel-
gium. The city was gaily festooned
for the holiday, the mood of wor-
ry successfully hidden and the cele-
bration testifying to Belgium's re-
newed economic strength.
West Germany tried to forget
that she was the object of a tug
of war between Communism and
non-Communism. Christmas sales
hit a post-war peak.
In East Germany there was no
observance. There were no displays
in the stores and no decorations
anywhere except for s few forlorn
wreaths here and there, hung up
by the less timid, householders.
That was the world on Christmas
day--divided into two parts, one
trying to .be happy with a false
gaiety, the other grim and fore.
