A DECLARATION
In Opposition to any Concessions to Communist china
American steadfastness in refusing to bow before the thteats and blandishments of Red China - or the pressures from at home and
abroad urging United States concessions to the Peiping regime - has been an effective cornerstone of American foreign policy ever
since the Communists usurped power on Mainland China. This position has the overwhelming support of the American people and its
leadership: the Administrations of Presidents Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy and Johnson; the 1956, 1960 and 1964 National Platforms of the Democratic and Republican Parties. Yet, in spite of this sentiment, it becomes necessary once again to emphasize our
considered opposition to any steps which would build the power and prestige of Communist China to the detriment of our friends
and allies in Asia and of out national security. To this end, we join in the following Declaration:
' We are opposed to the admission of Communist China to the United Nations.
o We are opposed to granting United States diplomatic recognition to the Peiping regime.
We are opposed to trade relations between the United States and Communist China.
° We are opposed to any policy of accommodation which might be intetprered"ás US: acquiescénce irs, orapproval of, Communist
China's aggression, direct or indirect, against her neighbors.
In endorsing the above, we earnestly believe we are acting in our national interest and the interest of freedom throughout the world
and that this statement represents the thinking of the great majority of the American people.
