Stevenson Disagrees With Eisenhower's Message on State of the Union
CHICAGO (AP) Adlai E. Stevenson says the nation's relationships with other countries have "never been more perilous than now" and that he can't understand why President Eisenhower pictured them otherwise.
Stevenson tossed new criticism at the President's State of the Union message in a TV interview (CBS's Face the Nation) Sunday.
He called the report to Congress "less a State of the Union message than a state of the Republican Party message." He said the message was "political in tone."
He said the President's claim that the U.S. maintains its lead in international affairs was "a curious statement . . . it was not accurate."
Stevenson said it "appears to be the case" that the United States has lost its military lead to Russia.
He said the Eisenhower Administration has made many mistakes in carrying out foreign policy- among them Secretary of State Dulles' "unfortunate reference to Goa in India."
Dulles irked Indians by calling Goa a "province" of Portugal in a joint statement with the Portuguese foreign minister. The Indians consider it a colony that should be part of their country.
