Knowland urges sanctions or blockade over jailed US airmen
Senator Knowland told the Long Beach Republican Women that the United Nations must back protests against Red China with economic sanctions or a naval blockade. If UN action fails, the US should act alone to secure release. He defended a policy of peace with honor and said Congress must function as a co equal branch. He later noted good terms with Vice President Nixon and declined comment on Nixon’s presidential prospects.
