COLD WAR
William Revealed

At last something had happened
that could and did make people un'
derstand what this Russian sltua'
ton was all about.
It had been pretty difficult going
for the world public to perceive the
basic truth when it was obscured
by confusing circumstances like
currency reform in Berlin, control
of the German Ruhr, a maze OF
spies at home and political annihila-
ton of small European nations by
Russia.
What it all amounted to, as far as
most people were concerned, was a
mess of verbal pottage that they
wouldn't trade for the comics page
any day of the week.
Then it happened. Mrs. Oksana
Kosenkina, the Russian school
teacher, jumped from a third-story
window in the Soviet consulate in
New York to achieve the liberty she
so desperately sought.
Mikhail Samarin, the other Rus
sian school teacher, was wanted by
the Russians but managed to retain
his freedom. Refusing the Soviet de-
mand that he return to Russia, he
tossed this scaIion for the Commu-
nists into the propaganda war: Il
won't return to DEATH"
And finally, in England Olympic
athletes from Czechoslovakia and
other Soviet satellite states were
s~teadfastly refusing to return to
their home countries after their
taste of a free land.
It all added up to the biggest
break the western nations have had
yet in their propaganda battle with
the East.
This was simple, basic, under
standable: These people from the
land of the Soviets-the s~choolteach-
ers and athletes-utterly despised
the idea of returning. They simply
would not do it.
Thus, it was in the end a few
ordinary persons who destroyed the
elaborate fabrication which Moscow
had constructed to represent to the
world the ideal way of life that
existed in the Soviet Union.
One Voice of America spokesman
said: This is what we have been
waiting for in our war of words.
This is something that can be easily
understood by people all over the
world"
The Communists tried frantically
to cover this breach in their curtain
by calling it, among other things,
an underground conspiracy in the
U. S. to wreck any possibility for
peace between the two nations.
But the williams disguise was off
now and everyone knew him. Try
as they might, the Communists new
er would be able to explain why two
obscure school teachers would seek
their freedom so desperately, nor
why Russia was so determined to
get them back.

In some dimly seen future time
baseball record books might
fall into dust, but there will be
those who still talk of Babe Ruth.
And among kids the legend of
the Babe might grow into this:
Every baseball he yer hit he hit
for a home run. And some might
smile at the exaggeratiOn but
say nothing because il will be a
magnificent story.
