...year and a half ago by John Foster Dulles: "I believe that the role of the U.S. is to try to see that that [anticolonial] process moves forward in a constructive, evolutionary way, and does not either come to a halt or take a violent revolutionary turn ... I suspect that the U.S. will find that its role . . . will be to try to aid that process without identifying itself 100% either with the so-called colonial powers or with the powers which are primarily and uniquely concerned with the problem of getting their independence as rapidly as possible...

The bus itself lurched, swayed, tipped for a moment at the top of the embankment, then slithered through a grove of willow trees into the river.
