RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Sept. 7, 1965
Billions of dollars in foreign aid provided by the United States to India
and Pakistan appears to be given in vain. Both countries are now at war
in a senseless armed show-down that endangers peace throughout the world.
I strongly recommend that President Johnson immediately appeal to
leaders of India and Pakistan to halt the fighting or be denied U.S.
economic assistance, which so far since World War II totals nearly $10 billion.
Money from America has helped both countries with ambitious development
programs. India and Pakistan undermine America's contribution to their
economic development by conducting a war that should alarm every nation.
The President should give a "cease-fire-or-else" message to the two
governments as quickly as possible in the interest of returning peace
to the world.
