...listeners or readers in the country have not already encountered. Even the introduction, in which the author describes the role he has tried to play as "titular head" of an opposition party, and which is the only "new" piece in the book, turns out to be a rather faithful rehash of Mr. Stevenson's article in this February's issue of Harper's Magazine...
...lemon that has been squeezed is generally regarded as garbage. Not so in Hollywood. There the discarded lemon can be stuffed with colorful yegg and luscious tomato, wrapped in the right sort of cabbage, and served to the public as something called a rehash...
...listened to Dulles and Molotov, it was disclosed that President Eisenhower had received an unprecedented, 2,000-word personal letter from Prime Minister Bulganin. Discussing the President's Geneva proposal for an exchange of military blueprints and for free aerial inspection.

For this, Author de Santillana offers plausible reasons...
...first session in the giant, new Soviet embassy, Molotov submitted his own plan for Germany. It had a familiar sound. He suggested that the four powers sign a peace treaty with a united Germany-but made no mention of guaranteeing free elections first. Essentially his proposal was a rehash of what the Russians proposed in 1952. No prior commitments (such as EDC) would be permitted the new government, its arms would be limited to "tasks of a purely internal character" and its borders to what was left it at Potsdam...
