Ford asks military, economic aid for Vietnam
WASHINGTON (AP) — Presi
dent Ford asked Congress Thursday
night for nearly $1 billion in
emergency military and economic
aid for South Vietnam and for clear
authority to use U. S. military forces
to evacuate Americans and en
dangered South Vietnamese, if
necessary.
Members of Congress, however,
reacted strongly against Ford’s
military aid request.
Ford, in his “State of the World”
address, did not renew his $222
million aid request for Cambodia.
Administration officials told
newsmen Cambodia probably
would fall in the next few days and
there was no point in asking for
funds now.
Ford called for Congress to pro
vide without delay $722 million in
additional military hardware for
Saigon and requested an initial $250
million in economic and
humanitarian assistance.
The humanitarian aid, he said,
will “ease the misery and pain of the
monumental human crisis which
has befallen the people of Vietnam. ”
His request for additional milit
ary aid was greeted with absolute
silence. A few long-time opponents
of U.S. action in South Vietnam,
such as Rep. Bella Abzug, D-N.Y.,
shook their heads in a disapproving
manner.
Ford’s hour-long address was in
terrupted just 12 times for applause,
mostly by Republicans and most of
it in the last 10 minutes when the
President warned against destruc
tion of the nation’s intelligence
gathering system and called for a
continued strong national defense.
Ford declared in his speech that
federal laws should be revised to
permit U.S. forces to help evacuate
South Vietnamese.
Administration officials said up to
200,000 South Vietnamese might be
pulled out along with 6,000 Ameri
cans.
While indicating it may be too
late to rescue Cambodia from a
Communist takeover, Ford said a
stabilization of the military situation
in South Vietnam “offers the best
opportunity for a political solution. ”
The $972 million aid request for
combined military and economic
requests for South Vietnam more
than triples the $300 million Ford
sought in January and which Con
gress has not yet approved.
Ford, departing from his pre
pared remarks, opened his address
by saying:
T stand before you after many
agonizing hours and after many sol
emn prayers to the Almighty.”
“The national interests of the Un
ited States and the cause of world
stability require that we continue to
give both military and humanitarian
assistance to the South Viet
namese,” Ford declared.
At the same time, he said Con
gress should immediately clarify its
restrictions on the use of U.S. milit
ary forces in Southeast Asia “for the
limited purposes of protecting
American lives by ensuring their
evacuation, if this should become
necessary.
“I hope that this authority will
never be used, but if it is needed
there will be no time for congres
sional debate,” he said.
Members of Congress, in early
reaction to the address, said they
doubted Ford’s aid request would
be approved.
Sen. John McClellan, D-Ark.,
chairman of the Senate Appropria
tions Committee, said further milit
ary assistance would only prolong
the suffering in Indochina.
Sen. Harry F. Byrd Jr., Ind-Va.,
remarked, “I would say the odds are
against Congress approving any
military aid.”
Ford urged Congress to complete
action on his Indochina proposals by
April 19 “because of the urgency of
the situation.”
Congress barred all U.S. combat
activity in the area as of August
1973, and has balked at giving the
Ford administration special military
aid appropriations of $300 million
for South Vietnam and $222 million
for Cambodia.
“Let us start afresh,” the Presi
dent said in outlining his Indochina
program. “The options before us are
few and time is short. ”
He said, however, that “it may be
too late” to assist Cambodia, where
rebel forces are currently pressing
Phnom Penh, the capital.
Ford quoted “a moving letter”
from Saukham Khoy, the new acting
president, who told him “the agony
of the Khmer people cannot and
must not go on much longer.”
Addressing North Vietnam, Ford
called for an immediate halt to
military operations and compliance
with the 1973 Paris cease-fire ag
reements. He said the Soviet Union
and China as well as all other mem
bers of the Paris conference were
being urged to use their influence to
halt the fighting in South Vietnam.
While appealing to Congress for
partnership in foreign policy. Ford
also traced the debacle in Cambodia
in part to legislative restrictions.
Because of them and “steady exter
nal support,” he said the Com
munist insurgents have shown no
interest in negotiation, compromise
or a political solution.
He renewed the pledge he made
on entering the White House last
August to work cooperatively with
Congress while asking the legis
lators “to keep America’s word good
throughout the world. ”
The firm tone throughout his ad
dress, delivered to a joint session
assembled in the House, belied ad
vance billing that he would strike a
conciliatory stance.
Despite Ford’s expression of
sympathy for the Cambodia gov
ernment, he significantly made no
new request himself for food and
ammunition for the Cambodians.
Ford’s speech reflected a grim as
sessment also expressed previously
