the president's press conference from the new state department auditorium, march 23rd, 1961. i want to make a brief statement about laos. it is, i think, important for all americans to understand this difficult and potentially dangerous problem. these 3 maps show the area of effective communist domination as it was last august and from december 20th. now to the present day or the end of march, the communist control a much wider section of the country. the position of this administration has been carefully considered. and we have sought to make it just as clear as we know how to

the government's concern 1st. we strongly and undeservedly support the goals of a neutral and independent layo to no outside group of powers threatening no one and free from any domination by fellow americans. they are far away from america. but the world of the security of southeast asia will be in danger if laos loses its neutral independence. i want to make it clear to the american people and all the world that all we want and layoffs is not. and

that on the one hand by a model team, tim jump through hoops team, i'm going to move down the ball. could none of them will, could dive down not for me when you're hungry we should note that i mean that would i would molineux all day and the month, month even to now they're not as yet and i didn't see me and think so myself from june 1060 point to my stated 73, the u.s. is true 1000000 tons of southeast asian countries in what would become the largest

county in history until one day, every minutes, 20 hours a day or night, a 1000000 years more than were trapped in germany and japan during world war 2 the reached the danger of iran and respect of your job. if you have ever the president handed over the war effort in laos to the cia, the way it made it to the entire peninsula is threatened by red, military takeover as it was last may nurse intervention your in-laws through to the american people. the people loves you so tremendously. the lives of those who

has lived with this many years, the 1000000 bondy's or bomblets based small signs bombs found in and so i trust them to believe that these files to dismantle and just one percent of them are pretty clear that amount of bombs that we're talking about that were dropped on this tiny country these days today is that they want to put the war behind them and they want soon grow in the future. and they would love the help of the united states government and to

whom who may go boom. and have a little cultural comment. oh, i'll tell my mental problem that a lot of the how believe you she died that she died. i love love love to because you don't need any you bond donated money. well, polenta, all puzzled by by you tom and you, but i'm an ing manya little woman called how many people would i

he chose seemed wrong, but old quotes just don't hold any new world just to shape our lives. these days he comes to the ticket and in detroit equals the trail. one song then a find themselves worlds apart. we choose to look for common ground. a new gold rush is underway in ghana. thousands of ill equipped workers are flocking to the gold fields, hoping to strike it. rich. as children are torn

between gold, was very poor. my best to get back to school, which side will have the strongest appeal just when the united states is gradually pulling out of vietnam, there is a rush of concern that laos may become another vietnam. not so says the administration and says, why? well, the president will let it happen. that's what i learned was the move that is we're not going to avoid the kind of major wars mainland of asia. again, we're not going to send american troops there and we certainly are going to do a mess. we have the american public in the congress behind this. there are no american combat forces involved. we have been providing logistical support of some training for the neutral us government in order to avoid laos falling under

communist domination. as far as american manpower in laos is concerned, there are none there at the present time on a combat base out in my songs, which alone will not be. and no, not one that some of my new men men running along with

i love, but a man might let you name it. he can have a he as to the general view on that allows this matter is of great concern to us. united states is anxious to be established in laos, a peaceful country, a country, an independent country, not dominated by either side, but in sharing with the life of the people within the country. we are

anxious that that their situation where united states is using its influence to see that independent country peaceful country. i'm committed, country can be established. i'm the president, very difficult circumstances going in. no, any. i had been in, i have a man, i know be a man behind him. i hang him, he labored. you go to my arrival as he could. and in my and i, he led the last day my understanding and he made them. why don't i yeah, and to be my mini kid you a land of corn kodak and they had me at 92 corn to move and i know what you need to india and i don't know what you can do. you can come
