...critics shudder even more at the potentialities of its seductive powers. Let its membership fall, and critics are ready to believe Russian explanations that they really want only hard-core members.

Despite the earnest efforts of the United States, Japan's was not among them. Communist China's flag did not appear either, but East Side rumor has it that U.N. gardeners have already dug the hole to accommodate Peiping's flagpole by this time next year. When Mao Tsc Tung's regime does enter the UN, Secretary of State Dulles may very well have to find a hold of his own to crawl into. Senator Knowland...
