I do not believe that war is inevitable and
BARRY IS ARCHIVES AND S. SERVICE "NATIONAL TRUMAN
GOVERNMENT
I shall make use of every honorable means of preventing it.
The way in which our foreign policy has been attacked
raises doubts as to the good faith with which the Republican
leaders in this campaign are approaching this whole question.
Do they regard it as nothing more than a campaign issue ?
Do they understand that the stakes in this matter are
war or peace, life or death, not only for ourselves and our children,
but for our civilization?
These doubts are made more serious by the record
which the Republican Party has made in foreign affairs
over the years.
