It has furnished the peoples of central-and eastern Europe with tangible proof not only that they havg—aoy-bean . 3 American people, but also that the walls of the Soviet satellite em- pire are not impregnable. It has done more. It has made the en- slaved peoples find anew their Jost sense of belonging and saved them from spiritual and moral de- cay. The Tnext phase of the balloon- casting' will be of crucial import- ance. On it may depend peace or war, The peoples of central and eastern* Europe are told by their Commumist masters that they have a choice between saving the Com- munist_ regimes backed by Soviet Russia, or a return to the old or- der as it existed before 1939 and sponsored by the Unr,e ates of America. There is nd’ t. that the mass of the peopled Béling the Iron Curtain do not want ‘a’réturn either to the pre-1945 or the pre- 1939 sociéd and political-iorder. They do not want to go back either to the feudal social system as legated by the middle ages, or to the state-capitalist economic system shaped by Adolf Hitler. The masses do Wb 1o, be “liberated” in uvfi’"&%&he dispossegsed feudal élasses, oF Hit- ler's state; capitali 1«% be~ cause their *social $volliof® was made against both of these. The restoration of such a past is ma- terially gimpossible. To allow the peoples hind the Iron Curtain even toFelieve that America wants a return to the past is to play dir- ectly into the hands of the Krem- In and to consolidate the Com- munist regimes in Europe. All great historical conilicts are fought under the label of ideas. President Woodrow Wilson under- stood this, and that is why he used the revplutionary idea of self-de- terminalion of nations to defeat the enemy in World War I. Today, Lecause; of the very recent, burn- ing experience of Teutonic racial discrimipation and = Communist party blreaucratic, hierarchal dis- criminagion, the nations behind the Iron Curtain will respond most readily to two new ideas: that of equality: and that of federalism ‘The first of these is featured in the De¢laration of Independence and reads: that the people of Am- erica believe and profess that “All men are created equal” This as- sumption does not exist in cen. tral and eastern Europe. In the d cades that preceded 1939, men were created noblemen, landlords peasants, bourgeois It was almost impossible to rise from one class to another. Even the high bourgeois who attained ta nobility was ostracized by his néw class. Under the Communist regimes men are not treated as equals either. Distinctions are drawn bétween the Communist rulers, the bureaucrats, the party members and the non-Communists. in a newly created hierarchy. The idea that all men are crea- ted equally for liberty and the pursuit of happiness sprang from and | and laborers. | that man is created | the image of God and from the | idea of the brotherhood of men. Since these ideas permeate western civilization, they constitute a res- ervoir of emotions to which we must appeal in order to arouse them.
