~ sritss the folioriag aaa].yeis; Contribntare to this review appear
to bo liberal non-party ar ]Qicaintang ndhdrente who, prsviol~ely ooa-
tent to keep still under ocnasrvative Euoztntaag role were beginning
in 1948 to bsoose inorsaeinply disoontsatsd with tSe ineptness and oar-
rnption of "tie ruling olique. Though they are not Cassnaiete they are

The saying "A weak nation has ao diplcs!ncy" is really not very apt. On the
oontraaly, rich and paverfal nations, sithpugh having inoeseaat diplo~atio activ-
ity are in fact still "without diploslsoy." Because their tareigu policy is stu-

blessed by Heaven, it should have been s oohing figure. In feet it has not
been so. The rsasan !e that US diplosaoy hue always been etnpid and weak.
iihen I say this, Atdriosne Bill perhaps :start that i have been deceived by
anti~~oerioan agitation and ast slandering s frdead and ally. lfsverthelesa, there
are plenty of inetanoee to bsoY up >~ nssertioa.
One inatnaos is Wi].eon's obstinate deteratination in 1919 to go to Pads
where, despite hie Ligh ideals sad great parostige, he Bade bud sdetaloes and {t1e
fine ideas rare esu*tlad..
