at stake in the debate on admission of Communist China to the UN On this issue the Kennedy administration must adhere to an all-out no-compromise policy of fighting to win There must be no more defesatist talk such as we heard earlier this year about a China" policy There must be no corn promise such as permitted Communist Outer Mongolia to gain membership and respectability a few months ago The delegates debating this issue at the UN must not ignore the force of public opinion in the United States ixypi The people have spoken out time and time again in public opinion polls our Congress

Cincinnati's Santas concentrate on the youngsters Public Opinion Important The administration and- the Congress may find the demands for drastic action irresistible if Communist China is admitted to the UN The result could be withdrawal of the United States from the world organization or a reduction to mere token participation Either would doom the organization to the impotence of the League of Nations The delegates representing the nations of the world surely are aware of the legal and moral issues involved But they may underestimate the consequences of disregarding the force of public
