![["Congresswoman Helen Gahagan Douglas gave a speech in 1950 addressing the upcoming campaign for a Senate seat in California. She emphasized the importance of bringing facts to the voters and highlighted the Democratic program and record. She discussed the changing global landscape post-World War II, including the emergence of the atomic age and the balance of power between the US and Russia. Douglas supported the development of atomic energy for peaceful purposes and as a deterrent to war. She also discussed the US policy of aiding free nations to resist communist imperialism, particularly in the context of the Korean War. Douglas expressed confidence in the Democratic Party's ability to lead the nation to peace and progress."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Helen%20Gahagan%20Douglas%20Collection/CAC_CC_014_5_172_9_0000-1950%20Campaign%20Helen%20Gahagan%20Douglas's%20Speeches/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_014_5_172_9_0012_thumbnail.jpg "The Battle for Korea: Uniting Against Extremism and McCarthyism")
