IT is perhaps not supirlsing after thlree years of “No, no,”


from Russia United Nations’^ assemblies, that Russia is giving the same “No,-no” at Geneva,


where th e . Press conference is also a United ! Nations' confer­ ence. For at bottom the points at iMue are muth the same.


‘ Russia wants a Press like .the


one In her 'own country, a Press that isiperfectly ffee to say what Stalin or Molotov thinks or wishes it to-say, and whose 'freedom ends' right there.


i The Soviet delegates put them-


iselves on what they believe t<> be firm ground when in challenging the out-and-out; freedom of the


Western demooratlo Press , to print what it pleases, 'they denounce such freedom as “ un­ desirable'I'because it is ‘'war­ mongering,” that is “ propa-- ganda inciting to war.” , i ■ Since all views' opposed to those of the Kremlin amount to

to deal'with 'Communism-to put something better in its' place. “ You can't,” said a Communist to me the .other day, “because


we are advanced

He must have been: one of


those mythical Communists dis­ covered by the' Archbishop of York—the Christian Communist. I have the first of this !type yet to meet. [But he -that as'it may. Communism stands for the com­ plete elimination of frgOdom in the interests of the master 'State, hence‘all! its so-called sMlal ad­ vancement is not worth the price to those who put liberty flrqt.

When . the Greek (Relegate
