"Perhaps Mr. Attlee forgets that ithe U. S. has suffered 130,000 cas- {ualties in Korea, while the British {figure is roughly 3,700," the Sena~ tor said. He went on: "In connection with his statement that there are elements in the U.S. {who do not want a truce in Korea, Comrade Attlee knows full well that {this nation which has contributed 80 much in agony, blood and tears . . . does want peace in Korea and peace throughout the world, but peace with honor--peace without surrender."
