PAGE A-12 ALTON EVENING TELEGRAPH Barry Goldwater: What He Says WASHINGTON Following are the views of Sen. Barry Goldwater of Arizona, Republican presidential nominee, on a variety of Issues, as expressed in his books, interviews, campaign speeches, statements and other, public remarks: Agriculture Most of our farm ills have fi the product of government price-fixing," Goldwater said in Redding, on May 25. suggested Feb. 12 in Port- that intent's only the federal Involvement farmers should be in a loan guarantee program similar to tfftt of the Federal Housing Ad- rtifhistration, to make money ijfeilable when it really is need- is the only place I see for the federal government to. act directly with the farm- efe," he said.

"You'll find that ail of the crops that are kept at a'-hlgh unnatural price are giving way to foreign competition." Littleton, N.H., on Feb. 5, said a federal withdrawal from farm subsidies could be accomplished over a three-to five-year period. 30 per cent of our agri- ctjlture now under the Presi- jfeht's support program should be slowly withdrawn from it, so that at the end of a reasonable period of time the law of supply and demand will determine the prices the farmers receive," Goldwater said Oct. 20, 1963, in response to questions submitted by The Associated Press. Civil Rights Goldwater, commenting on July 12 on the Republican platform plank on civil rights, declared that as president he would enforce the new law and added: "I don't think either party is prepared to go beyond the present bill, which is the law." Talking of his opposition to the measure on constitutional grounds, Goldwater said "It's up to the Supreme Court to decide whether I was right or wrong." said a president promises to uphold all the laws and "if I didn't believe I could do it I'd withdraw from the race right On July 10, Goldwater told the Republican platform committee he would not as president seek repeal of the civil rights law.

he said, "that's not in my opinion the duty of a president. J'Even though I voted with the minority I stand with the majority. still feel that two of the titles are unconstitutional, and the Supreme Court will determine that," he said. added: Y'lf I am your president, I will something about this to more than the law." Jle said he would use the pres of the presidency to seek an end to discrimination of al visers, Goldwater said in a television interview May 24: "At one time I felt that It was improper for the federal government to intervene in a local school system as far as integration goes. "I believe now that this is possible, and I believe the machinery is there to do it, and I think the criticism 1 would aim at the attorney generals we have had is that they haven't used the machinery." In a campaign position paper issued April 14, Goldwater said: "We must always make a sharp distinction between civil rights guaranteed under the Constitution and those rights of association that are basically moral issues and cannot be resolved by passing unenforceable federal laws." He said the right to vote, to equal treatment before the law, to hold property and to the protection of contracts are guaranteed by the Constitution.

In San Francisco on March 31, Goldwater said: "I'll stack my civil rights record with any white man in this country. I've done something about it. "We never write off votes," he said, "but I look at it in a realistic way. In the large cities the Negro vote has been about 80 per cent Democratic in national elections. "I think if any Negro read my record he'd find a better friend in me," Goldwater said in Detroit on March 25.

Goldwater said in Stockton, on March 18; "I don't believe this problem can be solved by law." As president, he said, "I would continue doing what I've been doing as an individual American. I think that moral persuasion and the prestige of a president can do more to solve this problem than law ever can. "I don't want to see my country destroyed, the Constitution destroyed, in a vain attempt solve a problem that can only be solved in the hearts of men," he said. At Bristol, N.H., on Feb. 19.

he said "I can't vote for the civil rights bill with either one of these sections in it." He was referring to the public accommodations and fair employment practices provisions. "Now if a state wants to pass either one of these it is their prerogative," he said. "I would resist it in my own state." Goldwater later was quoted as endorsing in a letter a public accommodations ordinance for his home town of Phoenix. erwards." He said in Washington on Feb. 9 he wuld favor the use of U.S.

warships to halt shipments into such things as British buses and French products. "Our allies are leaving us to do business with Cuba," he said. "The blockade that we have had has not been successful because they are still in business down there." But Goldwater said during his New Hampshire campaign that ihe United States must take much of the blame. He pointed 10 the example set by the U.S. wheat deal with the Soviet Union.

Defense Cuba 'We must impose, again, an effective i c-military blockade on Cuba. We must enforce our restrictions and levy penalties against shipping which attempts to trade with both the United States and Cuba. We must have an equally effective blockade against the export of agitators and arms from Cuba," Goldwater said July 5. "A tight blockade around is fundamentally a mat tgr of the heart," Goldwate said in reply to an Associated Kress questionnaire on July 5. now have too much government and too little understanding in these matters; too much mob and too little individ- responsibility." Announcing he would vote against the civil rights bill, Goldwater said on the Senate floor June 18; "I am unalterably opposed to discrimination or segregation on the basis of race, color or creed; not only my words, but more importantly my actions have repeatedly demonstrated the sincerity of my feeling to this regard." "I think I can safely say that I can run on a platform that would contain the civil rights bill that passes Congress," Goldwater said June 7 in Chester, adding: "I can assure you it won't be the one that is before us now." In San Diego on May 26, Goldwater said he opposed the pub- Ue accommodations and fair employment section of the civil lights bill and "the mainstream Of the Republican party in Congress feels either they have to Cuba would heavily undermine Castro's power, put an unacceptably high price on the Soviet aid which is propping up his police state, and enable the people of Cuba themselves those inside the country, together with an exile live under freedom once more.

Immediate U.S. recognition of a Cuban government in-exile would be the indispensable first step toward Cuban self-liberation. Such a government could ask for every form of U.S. and Organization of American States ought to receive it." "Basic strategic concepts for the security of this nation demanded drastic reassessment with the advent of the age of space and missiles. This nation cannot survive, in this new-era without mastery of the uses of space and heavy reliance on missile systems as against a mixed manned aircraft, and naval vessels of all types," Goldwater said July 5.

"I have raised, and will continue to raise until all the facts are in, fundamental questions about the reliability of our intercontinental ballistic missiles. It is not a question of theoretical accuracy. The fact is that not one of our advanced ICBM's has ever been subjected to a full all component systems, including simulated battle conditions." In Dallas, June 16, Goldwater said the nation is being fed "packets of lies" by the Pentagon about U.S. missile strength. "Whether we like it or not, we are in second place," he said, "and I defy the czar of the Pentagon to dispute that statement." Reasserting a long-standing charge, Goldwater said at Chester, on June 7 that "unless the United States develops a new manned bomber, 1970 "could find us with between 30 and 40 per cent of our nuclear strike force gone." In his April 14 position paper, Goldwater said the nuclear test ban he "means that we cannot properly test even our present missile systems." He also complained that the United States has "no present! programs looking toward pri- 1 marily military applications for the environment of space." Goldwater said there is every reason to believe the Soviet Union has such programs.

Championing the manned bomber, he said: "If we place over-reliance on missiles rather than a mixed arsenal, our only reactions to unacceptable Soviet probes would have to be all-out nuclear war. I want to avoid the necessity of nuclear "In defense matters you are inflexible if you have only one major weapons system at your disposal," he said. He also lodged again a longstanding complaint against Secretary of Defense Robert S. McNamara: "This administration has depended too heavily and too exclusively on untrained civilian officials, while tending to downgrade the advice of skilled and of the federal government at the rate we are now enlarging both, we will have to institute a new economic will have to adopt a form of U.S socialism within the next several presidential terms, and maybe sooner than that." President Johnson, he said in Monterey, May 26, has "absolutely no regard for the value of the dollar. We are headed for about a $10-billion deficit.

"As your president I would devote more of my interest and time to seeing to it that the American dollar retains its value," he said. Goldwater said in his April 14 position paper "What we desperately need are some clearly stated and clearly understood priorities for national programs. "We cannot do everything at once and there are many things the federal government shouldn't be doing at all," he said. "The budget can be balanced," he said in Chico, March 17, "and I'm convinced that I can balance it without damage to any services in this country." Education Goldwater said in his April 14 campaign position paper "I have consistently opposed federal aid to elementary and secondary schools as unnecessary and unwise. Nevertheless, I have advocated that any such Congress ever authorize made available fairness be all schools, policy "are leading us into World War III as surely as we.

were led into World War II by the same kind of stupid ineptitude." In Los Angeles on May 27 he said: "The greatest way we can help the free world would be to help the people behind the Iron Curtain assert their free will. Before I'm accused of being a warmonger, I say this can be done without going to war." In Lebanon, N.H., on Feb. 19, he said a firm foreign policy is the best insurance of peace. 'We're not afraid to risk war because we know by doing this the chances are that we won't have to go to war," he said. "I don't think Johnson understands the foreign policy of Eisenhower," he said in San Francisco on Feb.

12. "What his foreign policy is doing is isolating the United States by bring' ing back troops, by bringing back bombers. We are disarming unilaterally and this is certainly not in keeping with Eisenhower foreign policy." In Minneapolis on Feb. 3, Goldwater said, "If you get a Republican president you can get foreign policy changes awfully fast. In my case it would be changed to a policy not of belligerance but the same policy as under Eisenhower and Dulles of brinkmanship and the proper use of our strength." General Election ceptance speech July 16).

Medical Goldwater "I would voluntary, provide be governmeni public, private or parochial." Goldwater said he favors tax credits for school taxes and for taxpayers supporting college students. Extremism "I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice. And let me remind you also that moderation in the pursuit of justice is no virtue," acceptance speech July 16. Goldwater said in Sacramento, on March 17 people who make extremism a campaign issue have "no business running for the presidency." His remarks were aimed at New York Gov. Nelson A.

Rockefeller, his rival in the California primary. Goldwater called the issue one of "small minds" that disregard the real problems facing the nation. "All I can say is that I will take the support of any American who is not a Communist, who has not advocated the violent overthrow of our government, and the Birch Society, like the Americans for Democratic Action, extremists on the left, are operating, in my opinion, under their constitutional rights," he said in San Francisco on March 15. "I seek the support of no extremist groups of the left or right," he said in Fresno, March 14. Foreign Aid "I am for a sound foreign aid program," he said in a June reissue of his campaign position declaration.

He endorsed military aid and technical assist- Asked whether he can beat President Johnson, Goldwater replied at a Florida caucus at the Republican National Convention on July 12: "I wouldn't be in this thing if I thought I was going to get beaten." On June 30. an interviewer for the German magazine Der Spiegel had asked him, "Do you think you would stand a chance to win over President Johnson in November?" "If you ask that question as of now, and I always like to answer political questions as of now, no, I don't think any Republican can as of now. "I don't think I'd be rash enough to say I could beat Johnson in the South as of now, but come Election Day there's going to be another horse race, I believe." NATO Goldwater, in his campaign position statement, said: "The greatest force for freedom in the world today is the powerful Atlantic Alliance, the NATO community. But the present administration has allowed NATO to drift into the point where it is split, leaderless and badly lagging in its goal of building and maintaining a solid barrier against communism." He opposed the multilateral force concept as a gimmick to give the appearance of NATO unity, and said it would not be workable. He proposed these steps: 1.

Consultation with NATO allies prior to major policy deci sions affecting their security. 2. A pledge not to engage in bilateral negotiations with the Soviet Union on matters involv- For Aged Goldwater opposes medical care for the aged financed through Social Security. He says it would mean socialized medicine, and would push the Social Security tax so high as to endanger that system. "The Social Security system is not the way to do it effective- One sure way to wreck the Social Security system would be to saddle it with unncessary new burdens, such as medicare.

We penalize every aged citizen if we thus bankrupt the system which protects them," he told The Associated Press on July 5. He said on Oct. 20, 1963: "Health care for the aged is already provided for by the Kerr- Mills bill and by private programs. In this whole field of health, I would favor tax credit or tax deduction for any monies paid for the purpose of taking care of the aged." Goldwater Who voted against the Kerr-Mills bill, now says he thinks this is as far as the government should go. Income Tax In his April position paper, Goldwater said, "I share the opinion with virtually every other American that our present tax burden is onerous, often inequitable and in need of reform.

But abolition is the answer to nothing. "As president, one of my first priority tasks would be to secure a complete overhaul of our present federal tax code, so that we might quickly achieve the reforms which are so long overdue." "Personally, I don't believe in a graduated tax, I know we can't drop it," he said in Hillsboro, N.H., on Jan. 22. "A graduated tax is a penalty on ambition." In Concord, N.H., on Jan. 7, Goldwater said an overhaul of the tax code would make possible a rate reduction of 10 to 12 per cent in personal income taxes and about 30 per cent in corporate taxes.

On Dec. 2, 1961, Goldwater said, "Get rid of the whole graduated income tax."

We know less about Russia today than we knew when we recognized her." mined. "I don't think we'd have the courage to do it, but at least I can suggest it," he said. "We must stay in the United Nations but we must make It better," he said in Meredith, N.H., on Jan.

States as regards the usese and effects of high-yield weapons while leaving open tile possibility of their catching up to us in the field of tactical nuclear weapons, since these weapjons can be perfected by underground tests which are not prohibited by the treaty," Goldwater said to his campaign position paper. "If I were president, I can conceive of situations in which It would be necessary to abrogate the treaty," he said. "If I found it detrimental to the interests of the States to continue to adhere to the treaty, I would use the treaty's own escape clause to release us from its provisidns.

"I also jeel there are important areas of amendment which should be sought immediately, particularly in the area of peaceful use of nuclear weapons," he said. I don't suggest that we willy nilly, by the scratch of a pen, break relations with Russia," he said in Los Angeles on May 27. In his campaign position pap er, Goldwater said "I am quite certain that our entire approach to the cold war would change for the better the moment we the United regard Mr. Khrushchev's murderous clique as the legitimate ruler of the Russian people or any other people." Goldwater on May 28 protested the consular treaty signed with the Soviet Union. He said at Santa Barbara, Calif, on May 28 that he was "rather shaken." Johnson did not inform the Senate of the treaty details in ad- announced that States does not vance.

"I'd like to know what kind of wheeling and dealing is going on under the table," he said. "I think the American people are getting a little fed up with secret agreements secretly agreed to." In Los Angeles on June 1, Goldwater said: "I don't like secrecy this type of treaty making." "I believe that we must look beyond the defense of freedom today to its extension tomorrow. I believe that the Communism which boasts it will bury us will instead give way to the forces of the United Nations and are hoti orable people, Red China can't be admitted because this is aggressor nation," he said In Moultonboro, N.H., the same day. In Laconia, N.H., also on Jan. 23, Goldwater said if Red China won admission he "would be inclined" to campaign for U.S.

withdrawal. "I don't think it would be a safe place for us," he said. "If we reaffirm that we're not going to admit aggressor nations that takes care of Red China right now. But if we're going to let Red China in we might as well tear up the papers and forget about it." In Keene, N.H. on Jan.

"People realize that sooner or later, whether we like it or not, we're going to have to get rid of communism in Cuba or "we're going to have a Communist Latin America," he said in San Diego March 20. In Lakeport, on March 18, Goldwater said action must be taken against Castro in concert with other Hemisphere nations and "if we don't do this we ourselves will some day have to repeat what we did in 1898."

In a position paper issued late ir June, Goldwater said he would act to hold down federal spending "by setting clearly stated and clearly understood." To hold "1 hope the President has the courage to tell Castro turn that water back on or we're going to turn it on ourselves turn it on or the Marines will turn it on for you and keep it on." He repeated that position in the base, I probably would have Los Angeles on May 27. "Had 1 been the commanding officer of taken that action," he said.

"Soundly based economic loans, granted according to clear criteria, can also be a good investment for free world security," he said. "Foreign military aid and technical assistance are valuable adjuncts to our over-all program of mutual former to protect our friends against Communist aggression, and the latter to help free nations free themselves," Goldwater said in an April 14 position paper. "But, as it is presently conceived and administered, foreign economic aid raises serious questions. "Our aid will be truly effective only if those we help have the desire and the will to become self-supporting," he said. Goldwater also said "U.S.

I suggest that the supreme commander of NATO, who is an American officer and probably always will be, have direct command over a NATO nuclear force, trained, ready and equipped, on European soil." Goldwater says he was misquoted as saying in Hartford, on Oct. 24, 1963 that he wants NATO commanders have authority over tactical nuclear weapons. He said he was talking about the supreme commander. In San Francisco on July 13, Goldwater told Florida delegates to the GOP Convention: "I've suggested that we never remove this responsibility from the President but that the commander of NATO have a little more leeway in the selection of weapons and the timeliness of weapons." At Fayetteville, N.C., on Jan.

18, Goldwater said: In his campaign position paper en labor, Goldwater said, "to achieve industrial peace, we must maintain a balance among the rights of employes, employers and the public. Our concern for the individual employe must always be paramount. "He should be protected from sbuse and such abuse of exploitation stems from actions of his employer or from the the actions of union officials," he said. In Hillsboro, N.H,, on Jan. 22, Goldwater said of right-to-work legislation: "Personally, I think very favorably of it.

I don't think any American should be forced to belong to anything in order to make a living." "Why," he asked in Kinston, N.C., on Jan. 17, "should a man be forced to join a labor union because 50.1 per cent of his fellow workers say they want to "The policies we have been following there for the past several years have been proven to be inadequate. I predict that if these policies do not change we'll be fighting in Viet Nam for a decade. And, at best, we'll end up with a draw or a slow defeat," Goldwater said on July 5. "The supplies of the Communist invaders have got to be shut off.

"This means threatening or actually interdicting the supply routes frqm Red China, Laos and Cambodia. It does not mean bombing (Vietnamese, or even bombing Vietnamese cities. "So long as the Communists are going to wage war on their neighbors, and on us, their vital supplies should not be protected as they EJre today. We should make this clear to the Communists. Perhaps the threat alone would work.

If not, it might require only very limited actions to make our point make it stick." Goldwater said in San Diego, on May 26: "As president, I would say to my military people, 'How do we stop these supplies coming And we would do that." The senator said 'he does not wonder if industrywide advocate the use of nuclear weapons to defoliate jungle program should be," he Feb. 10 in Thatcher, Ariz. Foreign Policy Goldwater said to Dallas on "We can't expect NATO to fight a modern war with World War II weapons, and that is what we're asking them to do. If we have to wait for a consultation at the White House before retaliating with nuclear tactical weapons, I'm afraid we would a ground attack over The greatest bulwark ever erected by free nations, the lose to there." jom. "I bargaining shouldn't be looked into," he added.

Social Security "I favor a sound Social Security system and I want to see it strengthened. I want to see every participant receive all the benefits this system provides. And I want these benefits to be paid in sound 100-cent dollars. Protecting the value of the benefits is a basic necessity," he said July 5. In his position paper earlier, he said: "We will not preserve the Social Security system if we saddle it with unnecessary new burdens, such as Medicare.

We penalize every aged citizen if we thus bankrupt the system which protects them. "Nor is the public interest served by those who label every sincere proposal to correct and perfect the Social Security system as an attack on its basic principles." "No president could end Social Security." he said to Monterey, on May 25. "I can't imagine the Congress in its most wild and stupid moments voting to end Social Security." VH trails or to cut Communist supply lines. "It could be done, but I don't think it should be done," he said. "I feel conventional weapons would be very, very adequate." In Los Angeles on May 30, Goldwateif charged the administration is sending American airmen into battle in Viet Nam in "old and inadequate equipment." "The supplies of the Communist invadprs have got to be shut off," Goldwater said in Los An geles on April 29.

He said that would mefan threatening or in terdicting routes from Red Chi na, Laos and Cambodia. Soviet Union In the per Spiegel interview, Goldwater said: "My disagreement with diplomatic recognition of Russia goes back to the day when we did it in the 1930s. I opposeci it then and I never thought that it has redounded to the benefit of the Western world. Today I look upon this as a tool." In his campaign position paper, Goldwater said: "Our recognition of the Soviet Union has been greatly to its advantages. The possibility of withdrawing that recognition should be maintained as a bargaining dpvice, as a lever that might be used at a moment most advantageous to the interests of thp United States.

"Withdrawal might not come this year or next or at all, but the very threat would be of great value to the United States ir its negotiations with the Communists Goldwater said he would ask for Senatp advice before break- Goldwater made this statement on the United Nations in responding on July 5 to an Associated Press questionnaire: "I would, at the very least, issue a the following terms: For 19 years now, the Communists have held the United Nations contempt. They have repeatedly undermined its operations and its principles. Should the Red Chinese now, in effect, shoot their way in, the charter would be all but a dead letter. In that event, the United our own best interests, and for the good of the original united nations idea would be forced to undertake a serious reassessment of its basic commitments. "The first necessity for strengthening the United Nations, in my judgment, is to look critically at voting procedures.

Some form of weighted voting may have to be seriously considered as a way of bringing the United Nations into line with new world realities. Many responsible authorities have suggested a system based on population, on contributions to U.N. costs, or on some combination of factors. I do not have the final solution. But this is one of the major problems that must be considered, soberly and candidly, in assessing the U.N.'s future as both a representative and a responsible organisation.

"I criticize the United Nations it is not all that it should be. Even so, it is a useful forum. It can still provide machinery for valuable conciliation among nations. But I want to see the United Nations do more. I want to see it come c'oser to achieving its real goals.

It can do so, only when all formed for peace. "It's foolish," he said. "It's like inviting Al Capone to a Sunday evening social." At Concord, N.H., on Jan. 27, Goldwater was asked whether he advocated U.S. withdrawal from the United Nations.

"I've never said that to my life except with the qualification of if Red China is admitted," he said. On Nov. 3,1963, he said if Red China gained membership, "I don't see how we could live in the United Nations." In Belmont, on June 13, 1962, Goldwater said he could see "no reason to continue our participation" in the United Nations. "The idea was wonderful but the world is not ready for it," he said. On Dec.

21, 1961, Goldwater said at Phoenix he had come to the "reluctant conclusion" that the United States no longer had a place in the United Nations. He pointed to the U.N. action in Katanga and India's invasion of Goa. ot its members live up to the spirit of the charter, which many of them quite obviously are not doing now. I have in mind, particularly, the charter's definition of 'peace loving' nations and the obligations of membership.

These include moral as well as'financial obligations." "I support, unconditionally, the purpose of the United Nations was originally intended to among nations, based on mutual tolerance, respect for the sovereign independence of all nations, and a common sense of justice. In Dallas on June 15, Goldwater said: "In the United Nations, this administration's in cptitude has permitted dangerous drift and decay to set to. "The United Nations, to serve its great original purposes needs a strong American vote to speak up for the demands responsibility, to speak againsi tyranny and chaos. A Republi can administration would pro vide In "I would''not have had the United States withdraw unless Red China were admitted," he said. "Now I think just as great a disaster has taken place." Welfare In a campaign booklet issued late in June, Goldwater said U.S.

society can best secure its people against want "by encouraging initiative, by guaranteeing equal opportunity, and by preserving for our states and for every citizen resources they must have to meet their own needs as they see fit. "Welfare programs, at whatever level, provide basic floors of protection," he said. "They must never supplant the widely hared prosperity of a dynamic ree enterprise economy." "The federal government will never say no to the needy," oldwater said at Stockton, Calif, on March 18. But Gold- vater added he fears the Democrats are going to "create a class of equality of poverty. "We can cut down on poverty," he said.

"We can cut down he welfare problem by the creation of more jobs, but the can't do it." In Ossippe, N.H. on Jan. 23, he said: 'I suggest that whether we like it or not we're going to have poverty "with us until the end of time. The opposition has the strange and dangerous idea that he federal government can not only end poverty but can create jobs." "You're not going to attack poverty by just having an equal- that voice." Santa Barbara, May 27, Goldwater Calif, said on he would see no advantage in U.S membership if Red China were admitted under the presen charter. He said the charter should be revised "so we can handle the contingency of China." Goldwater was asked in Globe, on Feb.

14 whether he wants to pull out of the Unit a Bed China is ad ity of poverty," he said in Peterborough, N.H. on Jan. 22. "What you have to do is let the free enterprise system work more freely." In New York on Jan. 15, Goldwater urged that able bodied men on relief be put to work for their welfare checks.

"There are community projects aplenty that could be powered this way, getting jobs done which otherwise would not be done, and getting it done without gaudy new federal programs," he said. Goldwater called for a study of the causes of poverty to find out "whether the altitude or the action of the small group not participating to the general prosperity has anything to do with the situation." In "The Conscience of a Conservative," Goldwater said: "Let welfare be a private concern. Let it be promoted by individuals and families, by churches, private hospitals, religious service organizations, Community charities and other institutions that have been established for this purpose.".
