    No Binding. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Offered is an original "MEMORANDUM: WHY U.S. INTERVENTION IN INDOCHINA MUST CEASE" issued on January 22, 1975 by the Lawyers Committee on American Policy Towards Vietnam out of New York City. An upper-left-corner stapled memorandum, reproduced for distribution, measuring 8-1/2" by 11" and containing six total pages. Reading in very short part, the Memorandum says: "The 94th Congress convenes as we approach the 25th Anniversary of our involvement in Vietnam and the 2nd Anniversary of the Paris Peace Agreement. It was on May 7, 1950 that the State Department, panicked by Senator Joseph McCarthy's invention that it was staffed by Communists, began our intervention by announcing aid that ultimately amounted to eighty per-cent of the cost of the French war effort in Indochina. On January 23, 1973, the 'Paris Agreement to End the War and Restore Peace to Vietnam' was signed. That Agreement, though it brought the release of American prisoners of war, has not resulted in ending the war or restoring peace - The hard fact is that the war in Vietnam and Cambodia cannot end unless the United States ceases its efforts to impose its political solution - At a time when millions of Americans are unemployed, ill-housed, ill-clad and ill-fed, it is intolerable that a single dollar be sent to the corrupt Saigon regime which will only be used to kill brother Vietnamese." Staple lightly rusted; front page shows light sunning in places.
