I SUPPOSE THAT SETTLES IT (By WHIM WHAM) “There is no more doubt now than there was in July, 1965, that North Vietnam had flagrantly violated the Geneva Agreement of 1954 and had sent its forces into South Vietnam, whose integrity it had solemnly undertaken to respect.”—The Prime Minister, Sir Keitn Holyoake. Sir Holyecho echoes Me. Inevitably, we agree. He says there’s no more Doubt to-day Than when we sent our Troops away; There’s no more Doubt, he’d have Us know, Than was the Case, six Years ago. There’s no more Doubt—say That again! About it Now, than there was Then. And What there was, and What there is, Won’t sleep for any Words of His. The Doubt that gnaws, and tears apart The mightiest Nation’s mind and Heart, The Doubt about the Means, the End, — God help the Cause that We defend! What Country shall We next befriend? The Doubt that’s Everywhere, widespread, Except Sir Holyecho’s Head. The Doubt, 7000 Pages of It, — Could 70,000 More remove It?— How many Pages has He read? What does He care, who writes, or reads? Thirty-nine Words are All he needs, To put the crooked Record straight, Six Years of Hell to vindicate. Six Years ago it took that Shape,— • Why didn’t Someone clean the Tape? Or why was his Advice not sought, Before the Pentagon Report? By the White House?—the Supreme Court?
