The national convention of the Young Democrat Clubs of America unanimously adopted a resolution today calling on President Johnson to issue again a clear and unqualified statement of United States policy expressing this Government’s determination to guarantee the continued political existence of Israel as a state and to take “substantial steps to implement this policy.”
These steps, the resolution stated, would include the immediate delivery to Israel of aircraft, munitions and military equipment “sufficient to bring that nation’s defense capacity back to a reliable deterrent force level.”
