What was the news from the disarmament talks in London? "Of course, I'm not there," said Ike, but Presidential Disarmament Adviser Harold Stassen, attending London meetings, had indicated that "we are now engaged in the most serious talks on disarmament . . . since World War II."

Marshall gives a good performance, if he is a little too intent on stripping bare his character for all to see.
