Others had. Passionate Internationalist Edgar Ansel Mowrer, for instance, who last February had resigned from his job as deputy director of OWI to conduct an uninhibited newspaper column on world affairs, submitted the hottest : "This Pravda piece means simply the breakdown of Anglo-American diplomacy." And the Moscow edict may indeed have been a unilateral P.S. to the Teheran communi...
