President Eisenhower Makes Funeral Of VARYING REACTION TO
Report To Congress On The Far East
Washington, Aug. 17.
President Eisenhower in a report today, to Congress on the Mutual Security Administration said victory was far from won in France's war against Communism in Indo-China.
But, he said, shipments of United States arms and equipment had been of major importance in improving the critical military situation there and denying Communist ambitions for control of all South-East Asía.
Additional emphasis was being placed on building up the national armies of the Associated States and in time the Indo-Chinese forces should be able to take over a larger share of the burden of protecting their fellow countrymen from Communist attack.
