Impress Ion is More due to language than to substance. Our Basic principle is Freedom and As regards that we make no j compromises whatsoever. It is necessary therefore to review the j nature and trend of our foreign policy the president had to adopt much of the Eisenhower policy because there must be some continuity us own operations inside and outside the state department Are too Complex for effective results there Are too main Prima Donnas too Many cordon Bleu Cooks in simple English too Many stars playing the same role.
