Vandenberg Urges UN Charter as Best Peace Path
Senator Vandenberg of Michigan urged colleagues to accept the United Nations Charter as a brave experiment toward peace, arguing it offers a collective restraint on aggressors and a framework for world collaboration. He rejected the view of a U S military alliance and warned that without the charter there is no curb on great powers. Taft noted questions about use of American forces without explicit congressional authorization.
