TUESDAY, DECEMBER 12, 1950 Hillel Speakers Discuss American Asiatic Policy If we stop fighting now in Korea,and agree to divide the coun try at the 38th parallel, we have no assurance that the Communists will not once again attack the South, S. M. Vinicour, graduate sti pend scholar in speech, told the Hillel town meeting last night. . Subject of the discussion was: “What Should Be Our Policy in Asia?” • “Korea is an economic unit in by the Yalu River,” . Vinicour said. “We must reunite Korea and make it a free and independent country,” he added. Vinicour Proposals Among the proposals Vinicour offered were expansion of the use of the Voice of America in the Orient and a continuation of the present Formosa policy. With drawal from Formosa would free Chines eCommunist troops which would then be used in Korea, he said. Vinicour proposed a Marshall Plan for the Orient similar to that in Europe now and an in crease in Point Four aid which provides technical assistance. In contrast to Vinicour, a re turn to the • former ' hands-off policy in Formosa was advocated by Dr. Scott Keyes, assistant pro fessor of economics. Orientals at tribute many of their difficulties to intervention from the West and such an imperialistic-seem ing policy increases their resent ment, he said. Cooperation Urged “We must elect to work with the people of' Asia in any way open to us, hoping to persuade them occasionally to our point of view, but never imposing our will,” the economist said. Dr. Keyes is against the use of the 1 atom bomb in Korea for humanitarian as well as political reasons, since he feels use of the bomb would end all support from Asian peoples. He also advocates recognition of the Chinese Com munists in the UN. “The United States has the power ’to destroy or save the world, depending on which way it is inclined,” Sak Sena, visiting research associate in physics from India, said in giving his country’s attitude toward the United States. “It is' entirely up to the, United States to decide its policy in Kor ea,” he added. Communism No Danger Sena feels there is absolutely no danger of communism break ing out in his country, because the people are satisfied with the present government. “The average American is very badly informed about India,” Sena said.. They generally accept the attitude that the East is un educated, he said, and has a very low standard of living, nev er caring to ask how it has man aged to survive for so long. /Lucia 7 To Open Home Ec Yule An old Swedish custom, “Lu cia,” will mark the opening of the Christmas season in the School of Home Economics at the College.
