CHURCHILL AND RUSSIA
CHARGE OF MAKING MISCHIEF
WALLACE’S CRITICISM OF SPEECHES
NEW YORK, October 30. “Mr Churchill is the world’s great Red baiter,” said Mr Henry Wallace, the former Vice-President of the United States, in an address at the Macalester College, St. Paul, Minnesota. He added that Mr Churchill led the mischief-making against Russia when he spoke at Fulton on March 5, and he was, in effect fighting the Russians long before the end of the war.
Commenting on Mr Molotov’s speech, Mr Wallace said that it was likely now to be regarded as too Communistic to be for peace. Mr Molotov’s speech was a “fine, constructive statement.” “Americans express horror at Russian criticism of the United States, but for every inch of criticism in ‘Pravda’ there are 1000 inches ,of criticism against Russia in the American newspapers,” added Mr Wallace.
