Our Way Of Fighting
Communism Is WRONG

THE TRAGEDY OF AMER
ICAN DIPLOMACY, by Will
liam Appleman Williams,
(World, $4.75) is another
challenge to the way we have
gone about our peaceful OPP
position to communism. But
it is more than just another
attack on our foreign pol
icy; it is a profound and
provocative study Of the un-
derlying causes Of our fail
ureS.
DR.. Williams, who is an
associate professor Of his
tory at the University Of
Wisconsin, makes some tell
ing points. He contends that
1.-THE idea that other people
ought to copy America, con-
tradicts the humanitarian
urge to help them and the
idea that they have the right
to make such key decisions
for themselves" For "in
some cases the American way
Of doing things simply does
not work for other people"
Humanitarian Policy
He adds: 1.-THE overall
result is that Americas
humanitarian urge to help
other peoples is undercut-
even subverted-by the way
it goes about helping them.
Other societies come to feel
that American policy causes
them to lose their economic
as we'll as their political right
of self-determination.
In his historical reflections
on our foreign policy, DR..
Williams maintains that the

the key to it for many years.

Since these novels both are

This may not be altogether

herself to certain promising
