...protest. Communism is the deadliest enemy of liberalism. Liberals should be the most consistent and energetic fighters against Communism. Liberals must also be on guard against developing a certain type of McCarthyism of their own. They must shun like a plague the role of being anti antiCommunist. Only by refusing to be thus entrapped can liberals shed every vestige of subconscious and conscious regard for Communism as a movement with which they have something in common...
...Ngoc Thanh was Japan's puppet Premier of Cambodia in World War II, when ex-King Sihanouk was only in his early twenties. Since then, besides being pro-Japanese, Thanh has been pro-French, anti-French, pro-American, anti-American, pro-King and anti-King, but never very antiCommunist. He once dickered with Communism's Ho Chi Minh for armed help in ridding Cambodia of the French. Impatient with what he felt was Sihanouk's excessive tolerance of the French presence, Thanh mounted an armed rebellion against the King three years ago, and might have got somewhere...
After 18 days without a government, Indonesia got a new Premier to replace Dr. Ali Sastroamidjojo, whose Red-supported Nationalists fell afoul of the Indonesian army. In came Burhanuddin Harahap, 38, lawyer and onetime guerrilla who headed the Masjumi bloc in Parliament, Indonesia's strongest Moslem (and antiCommunist) party.

Revolution swept the sunny, tropical Vietnamese city of Saigon last week, shaking and straining the antiCommunist, anti-French government of Premier Ngo Dinh Diem. The Binh Xuyen gangster sect, supported by French colonials, started a bloody uprising and was put down. While the fires of civil war guttered out in the refugee-crowded streets of Saigon (pop. 2,000,000), a Vietnamese general, supported by French colonials, tried a midnight coup d'état and almost succeeded. Locked in this squalid conflict were the precarious hopes of Vietnamese nationalism, the ambitions of French colonials and the committed prestige...
...Prussian (August Bebel) and a Hessian pacifist (Wilhelm Liebknecht), the SPD is still doctrinally Marxist, making much ado about dialectics, red flags and the greeting "comrade." The Socialists say they are pro-Western, but they oppose German membership in the West European Union; they are stoutly antiCommunist, yet they line up on Moscow's side in its fight against the Paris accords. At a time when West Germany, and most, though not all, of its workers are enjoying unprecedented prosperity, the SPD still tends to couch its cries for social justice in obsolete Marxist phrases which catch no fire...
