...temperately critical of the U.S. cultural, economic and political "invasion" of Canada, favors "Canada first," closer ties to Britain. When Herbert Norman, Canadian Ambassador to Egypt, killed himself after a U.S. Senate subcommittee charged him with Communist sympathies in the '30s, Diefenbaker sided with the resulting wave of anti-U.S. feeling, simultaneously attacked the Liberal government for covering up the facts about Norman...

His antagonist last week was U.S. Theologian Reinhold Niebuhr, himself a sometime left-of-center critic of U.S. policy. The issue for which Niebuhr takes Barth to task in the pages of the Christian Century: Barth's failure to raise his voice against Russia's bloody...
