personal freedom in Russia. He
argued that Russia could not afford
personal freedom until its people
had plentiful consumer goods. Per-
sonal freedom creatively to employ
ones talents In any field Of en-
deavor must, in Mr.. Wallace's eyes,
be subservient to high industrial
production and consumption.
That the, lofty achievements
which have been the very creators
Of civilizations have rarely, if ever,
had materialist motivation. Is dis
counted. In this philoposy, Jesus
Mahomet, Buddha and Gandhi
must appear as fools. That material
advances have been furthered by
the creative thought of persons
whose quest was purely for truth
is overlooked. That anything
therefore, that intimidates the bold
searches of the human mind will
in the end-react to, impoverish not
only culture but also the economy
is not conceded; nor that progress
for the mass always has been fur
thered BY relatively few superior
individuals. 81
Leads to Stagnation.
Nevertheless, the attempt to lift
the mass while repressing individua
and i;intimidating non.
-conformist minds, cannot possibly
be progressive" It must, of neces.
sity, lead to stagnation. AS the phys.
ical race Is only improved by the
chromosomes Of the more healthy
and vigorous, SO Is material progress
furthered not by the average but by
the exceptional. In all nature, the
higher the form, the greater the diff.
ferentiation from the average. The
less differentiated mass can, per.
haps, be fitted into blueprints. But
superior individuals, always char.
acterized by a preference for free.
dom over security and by being ir
advance of their times, cannot.
Therefore, bureaucratic collectiv.
isns, by rendering impotent the
very instruments Of progress, invari.
ably become poorer, not richer, ir
all that makes q civilization great
and prosperous. Characteristic o1
them is that it becomes ever more
difficult to perform anything not ir
their plans. But these cannot in.
clude anything beyond the mentality
of the average minds that make
them.

hoped, If my health permitted
me to remain in office, to persuade
Russia to adopt the policy Of CO.
operation and nonintervention that
prevailed in the Western Hemi-
sphere, and to make this a solid
world policy to which all nations
subscribed. Under this Pan Amer
ican policy transplanted to Europe
Russia could have the friendliest
political relations and the liveliest
economic exchanges with her neigh
bors while refraining from inter-
fering in their internal affairs.
The second premise of our policy
toward Russia was: BY our own
actions give Russia concrete ex-
ample of how we thought she
should act. Therefore I opposed
the view Of our Joint Chiefs Of
Staff that the Pacific islands we
would take from Japan should be-
come United States property. ]
felt strongly that there should be
no exception to my view that all
the colonial territories wrested from
the Axis should be placed under
United Nations trusteeship system
1t was not hard to see that Russia
would not oppose our outright
acquisition of these islands. but II
was not hard to see also that Russia
would thereupon use this acquisition
as an example and precedent fol
similar acquisitions by herself. Oul
acquisition Of these islands estoppec
us from objecting to similar acquisi
tions by other nations.
