The Ambassador warns Americans against 'too

American soldiers are showing the emotional trends
of the last war, when they developed resentment
toward recent allies and "a feeling of tolerance if
not outright friendness toward our recent enemies
"Once more declares Mr.. Sawyer, eve hear
from those who are solictous about our recent enc
mics and we talk about possible difficulties and dis
agreements and trouble with our recent allies. he

them and by us to win the victory.
