WESTERN HEMISPHERE MILITARY ALLIANCE

Mr. SMATHERS submitted the following resolution (S. Res. 393); which was referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations:

Whereas President James Monroe, announcing the Monroe Doctrine in 1823. declared to the Congress that we should consider any attempt on the part of European powers "to extend their system to any portion of this Hemisphere as dangerous to our peace and safety": and

Whereas in the Rio Treaty of 1947 the parties thereto agreed that "an armed attack by any State against an American State shall be considered as an attack against all the American States, and consequently, each one of the said Contracting Parties undertakes to assist in meeting the attack in the exercise of the inherent right of individual or collective self-defense recognized by Article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations": and

Whereas the Foreign Ministers of the Organization of American States at Punta del Este in January, 1962, unanimously declared, "The present Government of Cuba has identified itself with the principles of Marxist-Leninist idealogy, has established a political, economic and social system based on that doctrine, and accepts military assistance

from extra-continental Communist powers, including even the threat of military intervention in America on the part of the Soviet Union"; and

Whereas the United States has joined with certain other nations of Europe in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization in order to offer mutual protection against Communist attack or threat of attack and thereby has successfully halted Communist encroachment in that area of the world; and

Whereas the United States has joined with other countries of the Western Hemisphere in an effort to prevent Communist penetration of the hemisphere, as evidenced by provisions set forth in such inter-American agreements as the Rio Treaty (1947), the Charter of the Organization of American States (1948), the Caracas Agreement (1954), and the Declaration of Punta del Este (1962); and

Whereas international communism now controls Cuba and has created a massive arms build-up there and threatens to extend its political, economic, and military sphere of influence to other nations of the hemisphere; and

Whereas, in order to protect and preserve the security of this hemisphere against the threat of international communism, the agreements referred to above, including Articles 6 and 8 of the Rio Treaty, must be fulfiled by all of those nations that are willing to act: Therefore be it

Resolved, That it is hereby declared to be the sense of the Senate that the United States Government should support the formation of an Inter-American Military Alliance, joined by all nations in the Western Hemisphere who voluntarily wish to do so, for the purpose of carrying out the principles previously enunciated.

CUBAN GOVERNMENT IN EXILE

Mr. SMATHERS (for himself, Mr. HUMPHREY, and Mr. BEALL) submitted the following resolution (S. Res. 394); which was referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations:

Whereas historically Cuba has been a member of the inter-American family of free and democratic nations; and

Whereas the present Cuban dictatorship is now under the domination of an alien Sino-Soviet Communist power and was publicly denounced and expelled from the Inter-American System at the Eighth Meeting of Foreign Ministers at Punta del Este in January of 1962; and

Whereas that dictatorship has destroyed the personal and political freedoms of the people of Cuba; and

Wheras the existence of that dictatorship is a continuing threat to the peace and security of the other Western Hemisphere nations, and violates the Monroe Doctrine of 1823 as well as the Inter-American Treaty of Reciprocal Assistance (1947), the Charter of the Organization of American States (1948), the Declaration of Caracas (1954), the Declaration of Santiago de Chile (1959), and the Declaration of San Jose (1960), which the nations of the InterAmerican System have pledged to support and uphold; and

Whereas the United States has historically given aid and comfort to oppressed peoples through the recognition of governments in exile, when free nations were overrun and occupied by totalitarian powers, as was the case in World War I with the recognition by the United States of the Czechoslovak National Council in 1918 (at a time when this territory was still part of the AustroHungarian Empire) and in World War II when the United States recognized seven European governments in exile whose homelands were occupied by the Nazi armies; and

Whereas a Cuban government in exile would (1) provide a rallying point for two hundred thousand Cuban refugees who have demonstrated their desire to liberate their homeland and return to free Cuba, (2) provide a legal and effective means whereby the Government of the United States and the other nations of the Western Hemisphere could help freedom-loving Cubans to regain their homeland. (3) provide an instrument whereby freedom-loving Cubans could ask for and receive the assistance that is necessary if they are to throw off the yoke of communism, (4) provide an effective contact with those brave people inside Cuba who are already opposing the Communist dictatorship in whatever way they can, and (5) assure the people of the world that the fight against a Communist Cuba is not ended and will not end until Cuba is free: Therefore be it

Resolved, That it is hereby declared to be the sense of the Senate that the United States should recognize as the true government of Cuba a Cuban Revolutionary Government in Exile whose avowed purpose is to lead the Cuban people in the liberation and recovery of their homeland:

Resolved further. That the United States should recognize only a Cuban Revolutionary Government Government in Exile which agrees, prior to recognition by the United States, that it will, upon the liberation of Cuba, transfer its power and authority to the Cuban people by the holding of free elections.

TO PRINT AS A SENATE DOCUMENT A STUDY ENTITLED "UNITED STATES PRIVATE FOREIGN AID PROGRAMS"

Mr. GOLDWATER submitted the following resolution (S. Res. 395); which was referred to the Committee on Rules and Administration:

Resolved, That there be printed as a Senate document a Senate Republican Policy Committee staff study entitled "United States Private Foreign Aid Programs"; and that one hundred and three thousand additional copies be printed for the use of the Senate.

USE OF ARMED FORCES WHERE NECESSARY TO DEAL WITH COMMUNISM BUILDUP IN CUBA

Mr. SCOTT submitted the following resolution (S. Res. 396); which was referred to the Committee on Foreign Relations and Armed Services, jointly:

Whereas President James Monroe, announcing the Monroe Doctrine in 1823. declared to the Congress that we should

consider any attempt on the part of European powers "to extend their system to any portion of this hemisphere as dangerous to our peace and safety"; and

Whereas in the Rio Treaty of 1947 the parties agreed that "an armed attack by any state against an American state shall be considered as an attack against all the American states, and, consequently, each one of the said contracting parties undertakes to assist in meeting the attack in the exercise of the inherent right of individual or collective selfdefense recognized by article 51 of the Charter of the United Nations"; and

Whereas in the Rio Treaty of 1947 the Parties further agreed that: "If the inviolability or the integrity of the territory or the sovereignty or political independence of any American state should be affected by an aggression which is not an armed attack or by an extracontinental or intracontinental conflict, or by any other fact or situation that might endanger the peace of America, the Organ of Consultation shall meet immediately in order to agree on the measures which must be taken in case of aggression to assist the victim of the aggression or, in any case, the measures which should be taken for the common defense and for the maintenance of the peace and security of the Continent"; and

Whereas in the Rio Treaty of 1947 the Parties further agreed that "the measures on which the Organ of Consultation may agree will comprise one or more of the following: recall of chiefs of diplomatic missions; breaking of diplomatic relations; breaking of consular relations; partial or complete interruption of economic relations or of rail, sea, air, postal, telegraphic, telephone, and radiotelephonic or radiotelegraphic communications; and use of armed force"; and

Whereas the Charter of the Organization of American States, signed in Bogotá in 1948, states: "If the inviolability or the integrity of the territory or the sovereignty or political independence of any American state should be affected by an armed attack or by an act of aggression that is not an armed attack, or by an extracontinental conflict, or by a conflict between two or more American states, or by any other fact or situation that might endanger the peace of America, the American states, in furtherance of the principles of continental solidarity or collective self-defense, shall apply the measures and procedures established in the special treaties on the subject"; and

Whereas the Foreign Ministers of the Organization of American States at Punta del Este in January 1962 unanimously declared: "The present Government of Cuba has identified itself with the principles of Marxist-Leninist ideology, has established a poltical economic, and social system based on that doctrine, and accepts military assistance from extracontinental Communist powers, including even the threat of military intervention in America on the part of the Soviet Union"; and

Whereas the international Communist movement is increasingly extending into

Cuba and its political, economic, and military sphere of influence; and

Whereas the Government of Cuba is now a part of the international Communist movement, defined by the Caracas Conference of 1954 as of "anti-democratic nature and ** interventionist tendency * * * incompatible with the concept of the American freedom."; and Whereas the Declaration of Caracas condemned the activities of the international Communist movement as constituting intervention in American affairs and expressed the determination of the American States to take the necessary measures to protect their political independence against the intervention of international communism, acting in the interests of an alien despotism: Now, therefore, be it.

Resolved, That it is the sense of the Senate that the President of the United States in addition to his authority as Chief Executive, is specifically authorized to employ the Armed Forces of the United States as he deems necessary

(a) to prevent by whatever means may be necessary, including the use of arms, the Castro regime from exporting its aggressive purposes to any part of this hemisphere by force or the threat of force;

(b) to prevent in Cuba the creation or use of an externally supported offensive military base capable of endangering the United States naval base at Guantanamo, free passage to the Panama Canal, United States missile and space preparations or the security of this Nation and its citizen;

(c) to work with other free citizens of this hemisphere and with freedomloving Cuban refugees to support the legitimate aspirations of the people of Cuba for a return to self-determination: and

(d) to use such measures as may be necessary to halt, impede or counter the buildup of Cuba with Communist arms as a Communist military base, including the use of economic and military boycott and blockade.
