Kassebaum gives Landon Lecture

MANHATTAN  — Alf Landon showed amazing foresight during his inaugural Landon Lecture two decades ago, his daughter, Sen. Nancy Kassebaum, R-Kan., said yesterday on Landon's 100th birthday, in the 76th lecture in the series.
the four lectures. After reviewing Landon's Dec. 13, 1966, lecture at Kansas State University, "I was struck not only by his specific observations, which showed remarkable foresight, but by what he saw as the flow of events," Kassebaum told about 2,000 people.
baum told me, "First, he spoke of the crucial importance of 'the new nationalism,' as nations throughout the Third World sought independence and self-determination. He predicted that this movement would create great difficulties for the superpowers because it would challenge the authority of both," she said.
both, she said.
Kassebaum said her father also called for normalizing relations with Communist China, "a step we finally took six years later." And, he sounded an alarm about the conflict in
Vietnam.
Those predictions are part of history and something "we must all understand and appreciate as we focus our attention on the events unfolding around us today." Kassebaum said.
It is a remarkable achievement that Landon, a former Kansas governor and the unsuccessful 1936 Republican presidential nominee, has lived to be 103. Kassbaum said.
"It is all the more remarkable when you consider that in just eight days we will celebrate the 200th anniversary of the signing of our Constitution. My father's life covers half of the life of our government," she said. "In the 100 years since my father was born, the world has literally remade itself."
She said that if the United States was to continue its world leadership role, it must "seek to build an era of active cooperation between the superpowers. . . We must be willing to test the Soviets' words in ways that clearly serve our national interests as well as theirs."
