There was plenty to talk about. Communist strategy is fixed and crystal-clear-to win Communist domination of Asia-but Communist tactics are growing more obscure every day. Currently, Communist propaganda is truculent, violent and fanciful. It accuses the U.S. of wrecking the peace talks (broken off by the Reds on Aug. 23); it claims to have uncovered a U.N. plan for amphibious landings on both coasts of North Korea; it avers that a captured Mustang pilot had in his possession target maps of Manchuria, which proves that alleged U.N. invasions of "Chinese air space" were planned and not accidental...

Communist regimes still hold much of the world, but both Marxism and its opponents have been...
...Albert Barnett, professor of New Testament at Atlanta's Emory University, insisted that the worst thing that anybody could say about McMichael is that he is a "naive, noble Christian." Said Dr. Henry Hitt Crane of Detroit's Central Methodist Church: "His is a crystal-clear Christianity which we must cherish. He is the one symbol on whom we can all agree. He is our flag.
