"Don Fowler is hampered in this

the independent presidential can

Forester said the amount is not
adequate to present Fowler's "qual

at large."
"This is a definite hindrance,
especially since his opponent has
approximately $60 of party cam
paign allotment remaining," said
Fowler's campaign manager.

, Should the United States defend
Formosa offshore islands from
attache by Communist China?
When Sen. Hubert Humphrey
(D-Minn.) spoke here Friday night,
he took one side of this verbal
civil war that is being waged in
Washington. In that sense the
Senator's speech has been called a
"major policy speech" by many
observers here in Chapel Hill.
Regarding the defense of the
offshore island, Sen. Humphrey de-
Humphrey's
Proposal Is
Denounced
WASHINGTON, April 2 (JP)
Senator Knowland (R-Calif) de
nounced today a Chapel Hill,
N.C. proposal by Sen. Humphrey
(D-Minn) that the United States
support India as a replacement
for Nationalist China on the
United Nations Security Council.
Noting Prime Minister Nehru's
assertion that India' would not
join in if all the rest of the world
were fighting, Knowland said in
an interview he doesn't believe
India deserves the "support of
collective security." U. N. mem
bers, he said," are pledged to op
pose aggression.
Humphrey made his proposal
last night in which he accused
the Eisenhower administration
of "fumbling and faltering" at a
time when "the issue of peace
and war is the balance" in the
Far East.
Support of India, he said,
would show this country's inter
est in Asia. He added that "the
Nationalist China of today . . ,
is weak and not representative
of the new Asia."
Humphrey said that the use
of atomic yeapons to defend the
Queomoy and Matsu Islands
j might alienate all Asia, and add
ed:
"It would be nothing short of
tragic if a decision to defend the
off-shore islands should lead to
complete break between our
selves and the free Asian na
tions." clared, "It would be nothing short
of tragic if a decision to defend
the offshore islands should lead to
a complete break between our
selves and the free Asian nations,"
putting himself on record against
offshore island defense.

The Week
Ridgway Spoke Here
General Matthew Ridgway, Army Chief of Staff, spoke here
under the sponsorship of the Carolina Forum. The General empha
sized the need for cooperation between military and governmental
agencies. "The military man is an advisor and an executor," he said,
"not a formulator, not an advocate, with regard to the basic national
policies determined by the civilian authorities of the government."

president, and Forum President Joel Fleishman. Henley photo.
