Of the other parts of the program, one-third is for economic assistance required to help sustain these large forces abroad. The remainder con- sists of loans, technical assistance, and grants to help underdeveloped nations. These are the funds that spell the difference between hopeless stagna- tion and progress for hundreds of millions of peo-_ ple who, with us, believe in freedom. Congressional approval of these funds for mu- tual security will profoundly benefit our people. To our allies and to others with whom we discuss the great issues of our times, it will signify that @ united America has not wearied in the discharge of its responsibilities, and that we are unshakable in our determination to attain a world order in which men are free to pursue their goals in peace. And I emphasize once again that, as we strive to build the kind of world in which Amer- ica believes, our adversaries are not all included in the single word “communism.” They are dis- tress and privation as well, and also the despera- tion of peoples when they realize that, lacking out- side help, they struggle in vain to better their lives. Widespread chaos and misery cannot provide a world climate in which our free Republic can prosper and remain secure. There is for America no higher purpose or greater need than to meas- ure up to her world leadership responsibilities. I am keenly aware of the contention that, be- cause of an adverse balance of payments and be- cause of certain failures in administration, Amer- ica should curtail these mutual security efforts. We must, and do, strive for greater efficiency. Likewise, we do have a problem with balance of payments, but the way to meet this is by positive actions which expand exports, Neither difficulty can be met by withdrawing from our responsibili- ties for world leadership and from partnership in the protection of freedom. We need—in our own interests—greater human progress and economic growth throughout the world. We cannot achieve these by an assault either on mutual security or on liberal trade policies. I congratulate the Congress for its actions thus far on the funds for mutual security in the author- izing legislation, and I reaffirm the imperative necessity of providing the appropriations that the ~-guthorization would allow.
