The Freedom Commission

Communism has won most of its victories over the Free World through a variety of activities known as political warfare. That statement comes as close to a truism as any that can be made about Cold War. It is also true that the U.S. has never seriously tried to compete with the Soviet Union in this dimension. Last week, however, the so-called Freedom Commission bill (NR, Feb. 28, 1959) had its day in court before the Senate Internal Security Subcommittee, and a few inches of progress were made toward putting the U.S. in business.
