primitive state" declares John Foster
Dulles, foreign adviser to Thomas E.
Dewey in the last presidential campaign
and an adviser to the American delegation
at7the San Francisco conference.
.. Pointing out that nations have never
yet been brought under central authority,
Mr.. Dulles says that they are like from
tiersmen or tribal chieftains who have al

heir own skill and their own weapons to
survive.' Accordingly, he concludes, the
BARLEY now beginning can make only IAN
G 'eniehtal start" toward the goal of lasting
peace. ---

fact that present efforts TO attain a world
order are comparable to the study of the
