In the two world wars of this century, the United States, in the beginning, had only one desire to stay clear, despite the pleas of England and France that we cast our lot with them. Today, we find a total reversal of this whole situation. In England and France there now exists a large rind bitter sentiment. And it is in America, now, that the need for alliances in this dangerous world is almost universally recognized. This new situation is made abundantly clear by the answers to a question we asked not long ago of a cross section of the American public. Our relations with England and France were badly strained when these two nations, without consulting us, Suez adbegan their venture. We were outraged at their breach of the international peace. They were outraged that we did not instantly throw our weight with them against that Hitler of the Middle East, Colonel Nasser. Dangerous Strain Ever since then, the alliance of those Western powers which twice in this century has preserved the freedom of the western wrorld, has been under a strain. heavy and dangerous Does the American public understand and care? The answer is it does indeed. Here is the question we asked: Last year's crisis over the Suez Canal and ,the Middle East caused a great strain between the U. S. and its al .cat aloof anti-Americ- an ill-starr- ed clearly saw theU. S. as a world citizen.
