To the Editors of Summer News:

our report on the Harvard International Seminar's public forum Vietnam on August 4, 1965, appearing in your issue of August 5, seems to me to give the impression that the five foreign at the forum all favored the Administration's present on Vietnam.

should like to make it clear, as it was to several in the I talked with after the that the position I presented this, in brief:

the United States is in Vietnam what it says it got in there in the first place and stayed on, then it should commit far more men and resources as would make possible a quick restoration of peace in South Vietnam, and relatively more favorable conditions for the development of political, economic and social reforms under a democratic government and private enterprise with welfare state features as required.

Otherwise, the United States should pull out right now and stop sacrificing not only its own resources and American lives but also the Vietnam population.

The present US policy seems to indicate the United States is standing by South Vietnam. It is not convincing enough. And it is costing both Asia and America much suffering as it is.

We of the Philippines, I believe, as well as other Asians and Europeans of Mr. Bartoll's thinking, could help in South Vietnam in nonmilitary roles, and together with America's military and all other assistance perhaps stand a fair chance of achieving our common purpose. Rafael Perez de Tagie
