is CO-ExISTENCE POSSIBLE?
COHfinmed from page Mirfy-seyeH

When people ask me what
would do, rather than joining in
the drift Of gradual surrender,
my answer IS simple. would do
what free men and nations
always have done whenever their
essential security and liberty were
threatened. ] would fight back,
and / would fight with the bold
determination to win.
This IS not an advocacy of
preventive war. ] feel very sure
that neither Russia nor Red
China IS willing or able now to
undertake q giobal hot war. Red
China looked fierce for a few
months Of the fighting in Korea.
but this was only because the
UN insisted on fighting with one
hand tied - not permitting itself
to use strategic bombing against
Red Chinese bases. And even
with this handicap. the UN and
Korean armies soon showed up
the Communists as a paper tiger
without lasting strength.
In my sober judgment, the free
world could achieve a great deal
bysimply insisting that the prom
ises already made by the Com
munists must be kept - prom
ises made At Yalta, at Potsdam
and at Panmunjom. Certainly !
do not think we should accept
any more promises by them while
they are still breaking the ones
previously made.

that to the Communists co-exist-
ence simply means taking out an
insurance policy for their own
techniques Of continuing con-
quest, It IS far less clear what CO
existence means to the leadership
Of the democracies.
Do the free world leaders mean
BY co-existencc a relaxation Of
tensions? Ifso, what does that
phrase mean except a lessenins
Of alertness? Do they mean dis
armament? fso. isn't it evident
that while the democracies dis
arm the Soviets will continue 70
build the modern weapons Of
sudden conquest?
Counsss-n evelusiea3
Do THE democracies hope that
under the guise Of co-existence
they themselves win be able to
win the theological war? If so,
by what means do they expect to
require the Communists to fore
90 the five forms Of aggression ]
have outlined and what pro-
gram do the democracies have
for the development of an ideo-
logical counter-revolution of
their own?
Finally. if co-existence is &C
cepted by the free nations as
their goal, what IS to become of
the 900, OOO. 600 people already
behind the Iron and Bamboo
Curtains?
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1955-09-25

Soviet imperialism is planned
as conquest by gradualism. Small
and weak territories have been
taken over, without resistance by
the West. The larger conquest
Of China was achieved through a
skillful blurring Of the issues.
Even more dangerous is the
Soviet method Of weakening and
neutralizing resistance within the
stroneholds Of nations too proud
to surrender outright.
HaN he WoxlA
lHls process has already pro-
ceeded so far that it is accurate
to say that Russia rules - and
half-rules - much more than
half the world today. All Of this
has been accomplished within
the space Of one lifetime - and
most Of it has been done in q
mere 10 years.
Seventeen years ago Neville
Chamberlain returned from
Munich with what he proudly
proclaimed was peace in our
time" We know now how trag-
ically mistaken he was. Let us
not repeat his error.

spell as well as they, the writer's,
could when they were in the fifth
grade. They must have pretty
good memories. ! haven't the
faintest recollection of what kind
of speller l was in the fifth grade.
Evidently my report cards weren't
such gems that my parents were
prompted to keep them for poster
ity, not that they would prove any
thing; for it is quite possible for
child to make perfect grades on
the spelling lessons assigned and
then make no connection at all be-
tween those words and the same
ones he is using to write letter.
1t seems to me that those good
spoilers of yesteryear are compar-
ing the spelling of fifth grade
child with their own spelling now,
and that is no fair comparison. Oh,
I'll admit that there are some
mighty poor spoilers in school now
adays, and far be it from me to
say that there is any field of edu-
cation that won't bear improve
ment. For two years struggled
to teach one pupil to spell "any"
instead of his version, "inny"; and
another to write used, rather
than "youst". At the end of the
second year they were spelling the
words correctly, but it wouldn't
surprise me to know that they have
now reverted to their original
spelling, which to them made more
sense. Those two, however, were
definitely not typical of the SPELL
ers in the class; therefore it would
be unfair for the casual observer
to label it a class of poor spoilers.
Another thing to take in considera-
ton is that some of the pupils who
spell, read, and write poorly today
would never have gone to school at
all fifty years ago. Better poor
speller than one who doesn't need
to spell at all because he can't
write.
There are other subjects just as
dear to current writers. From al
most any magazine one can learn
