...NATO and West Germany of planning aggressive war, Herter reminded the conference that "the tensions that have required the Western powers through ordinary prudence to protect themselves" have been "tensions created -and created in many cases deliberately -by the Soviet government." Many more such Soviet charges, he warned, would mean that "our desire to negotiate seriously would be nullified very rapidly...
...they study the stranger. On the second day, in the car, one of my cop chums turned to me and said: "You're German, aren't you?" "No," I said. "I'm Irish-English." "Well, what about your middle name?" he said. "You mean 'Goetz?' " I asked. "Yes."

"Anti-Semites" break no laws so long as they just write and teach their doctrines of hate. But because they cannot be convicted in a court of law would you therefore allow them to teach in the universities? No, you know as well as I that private institutions can exercise their own judgment regarding whom they desire as teachers or other employees. Might I suggest that in using this "innocent until proven guilty" standard on Communists but not on Fascists...
