The American Way

cinating to listen to the rumina-
tions of a wise old gentleman, now
retired, who was close to world
events of the past 80 years.
Outrage
This gentleman says that many
OF our citizens are too young to
understand the enormity of the
outrage which the New Frontiers
men are committing against the
American people and their free in
stitutions. He was referring to the
New Frontiers cuddiing up with
the Russian communists under the
mistaken notion that the Russian
Reds are now enemies of the Chi
nese Reds, and that it is possible
to reach agreements with any kind
of communist. He doesn't accuse
the New Frontiersmcn Of deliber-
ately perpetrating this outrage -
they may do so unwittingly because
most of them are pretty young too.
He suggests that we ought to pro-
ject ourselves back to the days of
the fascist and nazi governments
in Europe.
Suppose Hitler and Mussolini
had had a public falling-out -
something that easily could have
happened because they did have
their disagreements. Would that
suddenly have made Hitler good
guy" and Mussolini a bad guy?"
How would we have reacted then,
if our President had sent his rep
reSentativeS to Berlin to make
agreements, amidst laughter, jokes
and champagne toastS, with Adolf
Hitler while a band played Love
Walked In" (Which is what hap
pened at the signing of the test
ban treaty in Moscow recently ?
Suppose we had negotiated" with
Hitler on the fate of France or
Belgium or Holland? Suppose we
had broken off relations with Hit
ler's Quisling following his rape of
Norway, but later sent Averell Har-
riman or someone like him to con-
duct friendly chat with Quisling
while he was visiting his boss Hit
