College GOP Asks Military Aid for Nationalist China

Harvard Young Republicans last night adopted the foreign policy sector of their 1949 platform, coming out strong for military and economic aid to China.

The closed session, held in the Winthrop Junior Common Room, also voted to support the original UN plan for the partition of Palestine.

Another plank stated that "at the present time, we are opposed to any aid or support of the existing Spanish government."

The China resolution reads:

(1) We condemn the tragic lack of foresight of the New Deal administration which has brought out ally China to the brink of disaster. The situation in China is equal in importance to the situation in Western Europe. (2) We favor immediate, adequate economic and military assistance to the legally constituted Chinese government conditioned on strict supervision by American personnel.
