...White's questions-but not the only one, as you implied-was: Will disarmament make the world safer? But the larger question he asked, as he has done before, was: Can we hope for peace without achieving "the vision of a federal union of free democratic capitalist states"? To this, as to the first question, his answer...
...overlook the fact that the Shakespearean Festival-in Ashland-insists that Elizabethan staging is necessary to achieve the full value of our stage.

When gunpowder was introduced, cannon fired away at point-blank range across the narrow streets, and not a move could be made by day without a fusillade of gunshots. Food and ammunition were smuggled into the towers by night, and since the feuds sometimes went on for years, each newborn boy was hailed as "another gun for the family." Meanwhile, entire families of innocent bystanders resignedly moved out of town...
