...that Bertrand Russell would "gullibly accept Soviet outrages." After reading several works by and about Lord Russell, I have yet to find even the slightest hint that he condoned the Stalinist purges.

Agnew began the campaign by calling Hubert Humphrey "squishy soft" on Communism, a charge he hastily retracted. Two weeks ago, he denounced a charge of "collusion" with George Wallace, only to discover that the charge had been made against the Democrats by Dick Nixon.

He steadily argues that there can be no true security for the world as long as such problems as poverty, racism and illiteracy remain unsolved or just half solved...
...other sappling nations in Southeast Asia to protect themselves against the communist menace. In addition, we cannot withdraw unilaterally because such action would open Southeast Asia to "more violence... more aggression... more instability." If the Vice-President still sees unrest in Southeast Asia simply as the march of aggressive communism, he is a long way from a realistic reappraisal of our foreign policy...
