...article on the Louis Harris poll regarding commitment [May 2] is terrifying, and should make many a friendly country run for cover. It is an invitation to Communist pressure throughout the world. Anyone who has experience in leadership knows that there is a price for leadership. Anyone who lives with the benefits of an affluent society should know that there is a price for affluence. There is really no free ride in life. We must be prepared to meet with force, if necessary, those who seek to take away our liberty and our advantages. We must continue to pray that...
...successfully and speedily dealt with the guerrillas organized by the infamous Che Guevara, who was considered, together with Chairman Mao and General Giap, the supreme specialist in that kind of warfare. If the U.S. Army, with its fantastically superior might, had been proportionately as successful in dealing with the Communist threat in Southeast Asia, I am sure you wouldn't have thought of calling it ineffectual...
...provided a cautious one-year timetable for ending the Viet Nam war, but assured Americans that no one expected their "unlimited patience" in bringing an end to the longest war in U.S. history.

Still, if international regulation could be established as a principle, it might be made to apply to both sides in the withdrawal-as well as to a subsequent national election...
Overhead, the big, slow EC-121s still fly the Sea of Japan, listening in on Communist electronic transmissions. Though the four-engine prop planes are now protected by U.S. jets based in South Korea, the North Koreans could shoot down another EC-121 any time they wished. The spy flights come within 4½ minutes' flying time of North Korean air bases, which could scramble more than enough MIGS to down the F-4 and F106 jets that are used to escort the spy planes. Protecting the AGERS seems equally futile. Despite contingency plans designed to rescue...
