similar close relationship has
obtained. The same is true
Of all those European ma
tions best known in America
and. Of course, the rule is the
same in other parts Of the
world.
In the United States our
most bitter struggle. the War
Of the Southern Secession,
was fought between those
having the closest ties Of Ian
guage. historic background
and personal relationship. All
the history of mankind re-
flutes eloquently the idea that
intimate acquaintance and
understanding bring peace.
They engender the most saw
age conflicts!
On the other hand, Japan
fought no wars whatever
when it maintained its CEN
turtles Of isolation from the
outer world. Wars came only
when Japan began cultural,
trade and other exchanges
with other nations. Ameri-
cans might ponder these
facts when Mr.. Khrushchev
and a large number Of
Americans raise their voices
in favor Of more intimate re-
lations and understanding
between the nationsl
Homer Joseph Dodge.
In this great Nation "of the
people. by the people and for
the people," it is sad but true
that the people had no voice
in the blackmail invitation to
the self-anointed head of
the Communist world con-
spiracy. Yet. because of the
very basic difference in ide-
ologies. the one important
fact that should have been
made very emphatic is that
our President is governed by
the people"
In all fairness, it should be
conceded that Mr.. Eisenhow-
er was not anxious to invite
this modern-day Caesar, but
he was pushed into it by
the one-world socialist con-
spiracy behind the throne
which owns and controls both
political parties-and any
elected official has no option
but to dance the tune whis-
tied by that subversive
claque.
What is left for the people
then? The 100 per cent pa
triotic Americans should just
go about their regular rou-
tine and ignore the visit,
without the customary CLAM
our and whoop-de-do for
visiting VIPs.

Mr.. President, please do
meet Premier Khrushchev
and make every effort to
reach an accord between
Russia and the United
States or if that is impossible
at one sitting, leave in an
atmosphere Of good will that
will make further talks pos
sible.
Events Of the past year
make me believe that Russia
is making the first tentative
moves toward joining the
West. I have read that it was
England that dissuaded us
from annihilating China when
she attacked in Korea: Eng
land wanted China to remain
in being as a check on Rus
siay But Russia may be be-
ginning to realize that. by
helping to modernize China,
she has created a terrible
threat to herself. With an
arsenal and industrial plant,
China could put Is million
men in the field and sacri-
flee five million of them a
year and keep it up forever.
I believe that the future
threat to peace lies in East
and Southeast Asia, and it
is not too early to knit the
opposing units into a solid
phalanx.

Making a big-to-do about
Mr.. K. displaying Commu-
mist flags. firing a 21-gun sa-
lutte, offering him the use of
Blair House. will not be toll
Grated by tens of thousands
of American citizens whose
families suffered at the
hands of the Communists.
This might tend to create a
situation which should be
avoided. This is one of their
cunning ways of trying to
further their schemes to in
f1ltrate our country and
spread the gospel Of COM
munism.
