This paper traces the political factors which led initially to the dispute and later to the attack of 20 October 1962. In focusing on the motivation of the Chinese and Indian leaders, the paper offers only a cursory exposition of the historical case each side has developed for its border claims, ...I. and it does not attempt toNjudge the legality 0.f the respective claims. The SinowIndian dispute, as we see it, did not arise as a function of the Sino-Soviet dispute and has not been conducted primarily with a view to its effect on that dispute.

  • Ike and India, 1950–60
    CHAPTER ONE IKE AND INDIA, 1950–60 ettysburg, Pennsylvania, is hallowed ground in America. G In July 1863 it was the scene of a major battle in Amer- ica’s Civil War. The decisive moment in that epic battle came on its third day when the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia launched a massive assault on the center of the Union Army of the Potomac. This assault, known as Pickett’s Charge, failed disas- trously: half the attacking force were wounded or killed, and the rebel army never again invaded the North. On December 17, 1956, President Dwight David Eisenhower, who owned a farm in Gettysburg, took his houseguest, Indian prime minister Jawaharlal Nehru, to visit the spot from which Pick- ett’s Charge was launched. Then as now a large monument topped with an equestrian statute of Confederate commander Robert E. Lee marks the spot. The two men spent the better part of an hour looking at the site of Pickett’s Charge as the president explained the signifi cance of the Civil War to American history, culture, and politics. Then they returned to Eisenhower’s farm just a mile away. In fact, Eisenhower had bought the farm in 1950 because it was close to the battlefi eld. The original farmhouse had served as a temporary 7 JFK’S FORGOTTEN CRISIS hospital for wounded Confederate soldiers during the battle. Ike, as he was called, had fi rst visited Gettysburg in 1915 as a West Point military academy cadet. From his living room he could see the ridge where Lee’s statue stood in the distance.
