threatens to resume at any time. And the U.N. now stands on the sidelines watching this new India-Pakistan war.
The United States continues to place unjustified faith in the U.N. but no other country in the world is so willing to settle its international disputes by peaceful means. While millions of their people live constantly on the edge of starvation the Governments of India and Pakistan are more interested in spending money for war than they are in developing their agricultural economics to feed their teeming millions or in helping develop an economy that would provide jobs and a decent living for their people.
We have absolutely nothing to gain and everything to lose if we try once again to intervene and take sides in foreign conflicts. Recently, under pressure from Congress, the President very properly cut off deliveries of military supplies for Pakistan, and I hope that he will exert every other precaution to keep the United States out of this unsolvable mess.
While I am saddened at human suffering wherever it may be, I am unalterably “opposed to the United States getting involved in the growing conflict between India and Pakistan.
