U.N. AND U.S.A.
Sir, —Chauvinistic my eye. but I do admire logic. P.J.A. assumes that a Chinese attack on Mexico, aimed at invading North America, corresponds to the United Nations intervention in Korea. This modern Aquinas knows more than to argue like me on the assumption that the United Nations intervention is international, based on the considered opinion of political parties of many nations, and claiming to be a police action merely. Moreover, he knows that there is hypocrisy in high places, at Lake Success, in London, but not, of course, elsewhere. He knows, too, that hypocrisy “has suffered a severe military defeat,” but he is good enough to warn the United Nations that if it “is not to follow the League of Nations, it had better use its organisation for theprospering of peace in the world.” The suavity with which this remark is uttered should not blind us to its originality. —Yours, etc., SUSAN G. THOMAS. February 18, 1952.
