Mount Pleasant News (Newspaper) - July 23, 1958, Mount Pleasant, Iowa The it. Pleasant news these Days by George e. Sokolsky they done to want to know swifter and More general Means communications do not necessarily mean better and More Complete understanding. One would have imagined that that would always have been recognized for otherwise How can it be explained that those who live under one roof husband and wife father and son Mother and sister fail to understand each other in fact often grow apart As the years pass despite All the Effort that has been put into achieving a More effective Exchange views Between the United states and soviet Russia very Little Progress has been made. I quote a paragraph from a Izvestia Quot the official government newspaper soviet Russia As an example total misunderstanding a the president s explanation., exaggerates the role the United states in the development historical events. This has obviously not been done without a purpose but to justify the current rearmament the United states and those military measures which it is taking in All parts the world the pretext insuring peace. A thus wrong idea about the exceptional role the United states in the shaping world events which attempts to ignore the interest other states is used As the basis for the a s. Presidents reply. For instance the stubborn raising by the president the question the social systems in the european Peoples democracies and even in the soviet Union is dictated precisely by such an idea. The time has come to realize that the question the existence socialist countries was decided by history Long ago. And is not a subject to the american monopolies which As Consolation still appear to consider themselves All powerful a a too the very language this Para graph is confusing to an american a the pretext insuring peace a after All.
