Macmillan criticised
in U.S.
י
Peter Burgoyne in his Bri- tish Newsletter in your issue of yesterday, May 31 mentioned the bewilder- ment of Britons at the U.S. criticism of Mac- millan over the failure of the Summit Conference: Knowing the U.S. as we do, one is hardly astonished with the mercurial tem- perament of her govern- ment and her people, re- membering that she is not a nation of one people but # conglomeration of an assortment .of.. many different nationalities, an Irish stew of a nation, with leftovers 23 in- gredients, not of the best possible materiais. The U.S. has always been mighty jealous of Britain and seems intent on re- moving the 'Great' from Great Britain, and whilst insisting on assuming the leadership in world affairs lacks the statesmanship that is so necessary for such a responsible post. Whilst our British prime ministers, the present and the past, all remained Lo the steadfastly loyal U.S. in spite of her con- and inued blunderings stupidity, such loyalty is and never has been re- ciprocated, as witnessed the. Suez Canal Incident' when the late Secretary of State Dulles made things as difficult as possible for America's first ally by openly siding with our enemy and criticising our action all because U.S. was not consulted before we took action against Nasser ́and his group of gangsters, as if Britain was the U.S. satellite.
In the present case, because It was Mr Macmillan who paved the way for the Summit Conference by breaking the ice, and pay- ing his visit to Russla twa years ago in face of strong opposition from the U.S., he has aroused the jealousy
of the U.S. Government.
dear sir
Not a word is sald by way of explanation as to why the U.S. had to send the spy plane to Russia on the very eve of the Summli Conference, and the rub- bish dished out by Eisen- hower about the lesson learnt from Pearl Harbour Is as stupid and childish 1.5 only the U.S. could manage to show.
As for Eisenhower, he is undoubtedly without ex- ception the worst pre- sident lt has been America's great misfortune to have in lis undistin- man guished history—a lacking in ability Or the common magnanimity. shown towards those who dare oppose bim, na evidenced his hostility to- wards Truman who could have relerated him to the background at the closing, stages of the World War II had he so chosen. Eisen- hower today makes him. sell the Supreme Pontiff of the world, holy and in- fallible.
Lest it be thought that this writer is anti-American, let it be understood at once that he is anti-nothing, bui unable to stand humbug, and is deeply angered at having Britain and her prime minister treated la Buck a shabby manner Britain who took the lead In facing Hitler and his cohorts until America teli it was safe for her skin to come out and grab the prize and proclaim herself the saviour of mankind. The whole thing smells awfully, and the less one dwells on this disagree- able tople the happier all concerned will be. It i hard to choose between Khrushchev or Elsenhower, though we know the first as unreliable, we never suspected the second to be undependable, a hypocrlie. BRITISH AND PROUD OF IT.
