proportion of the dispatches we read are based on propaganda from one side or the other. and besides. we are outsiders and cannot see the issues from within.

Now can we imagine what the tyranny and injustice must have been that would drive the youth of Hungary to face bare-handed the tanks and artillery of a mod- ern army in their struggle for freedom?

it is true that now the Hun- garian army has Joined forces with them. but young civilians had to take the first daaing step. Then what must be the feelings now of people similarly oppressed in other occupied lands?

The old law still holds that "They who take the sword shall perish with the sword." The use of force invariably arouses antagonism: which in time will upset every- thing that force tries to establish.
