Mount Pleasant News (Newspaper) - June 5, 1961, Mount Pleasant, Iowa The it. Pleasant news partly Cloudy vol. 83, no. 131mt. Pleasant Iowa monday evening Jine 5, 1961 these Days by George e. Kokolsky the search for virtue the assassination of Raphael Trujillo must not be taken As ail attack on a dictator. That is not True. Trujillo was the strongest anti communist Force in latin America. That he was also a dictator is not at All surprising because most who gain Power in latin american countries Are dictators. Only the state department and the Cia can distinguish Between a Good and a bad dictator. Only the doctrinaire experts who labor in those government offices can perform such psychological wonders. To the rest of the americans a Man is to be judged by attitude toward the United states whoever is against us is no Good. It is As simple As that. The via doctrine of intervention is intolerable from the standpoint of american history and american tradition. When this country decides Milicy on the basis of the virtue of those who govern a country we should soon have no country to be Friendly with. For virtue is differently regarded in different cultures. No latin american would Ever think or judging american Public men by their virtue. The investigation would be As disappointing to us to look into the biographies of some of our allies and toe nations to which we have Bern giving millions in Aid. Too the test then is not virtue and cannot be. The younger men who sit on the fourth floor of the state department or who prowl the Earth seeking righteousness for the Cia do not Servo this country.
