Egypt was a military dictatorship in 1953, a sit is at present. Mr. Lilienthal would be wise not to perform like the loudspeakers in Orwell's "1984" spouting such things as "War is Peace." The Bussian publics; yet who wold be so naive or malicious as to call Russia a republic. I am proud that the united State is a republic; and if Mr. Lilienthal wants to serve...
