...become increasingly clear that peace is not assured." In the mouth of anyone but the President of the United States, these words would constitute a magnificent understatement. But spoken by him, and addressed to London and Berlin via short wave, they contain far more than appears on the surface. And considered in the light of what has very recently become American public opinion, the President's entire treatment of foreign policy and defense in his annual message to Congress is pregnant with meaning...
