...should take power in South Vietnam, since the Thieu-Ky government will not be a viable alternative to the PRG once U.S. troops leave. This being the case, it is very important that the anti-war movement make clear to the American people that immediate withdrawal does mean a Communist victory in South Vietnam. Equivocation on this point can only help to reproduce the atmosphere of disillusionment and reaction which followed the "loss" of China in 1949. Instead of vacillating or emphasizing various improbable non-Communist solutions for South Vietnam, the anti-war movement should be preparing for the consequences...

That does not mean, of course, that everyone agrees with the tactics and aims of M-Day. Neither protest politics nor a hasty U.S. withdrawal are popular everywhere in the nation-and there will be countless communities where Oct. 15 will be just another...
...that much more aid be channeled through multilateral agencies like the World Bank; only 10% flows through such bodies at present. Another Pearson recommendation is that countries increase their aid to seven-tenths of one percent of their gross national product in five years. In the U.S., that would mean an annual foreign aid outlay of $8 billion by 1975. Even if Nixon seconded that motion, which is virtually unthinkable, there is no chance that Congress would go along...
