This article presents information, on political conditions of the U.S. For more years than one cares to count, opinion leaders have been saying that the time was close at hand for a thoroughgoing debate on American foreign policy. The great novelty of the present situation is that momentous events in the Middle East and Eastern Europe have precipitated not the promise, but the debate itself. Six liberals of the U.S. Senate, have issued a self-styled "Democratic Declaration of 1957" as tile first major move in a campaign to reconstruct and rehabilitate the Democratic Party. The sixteen-point legislative program it outlines will not quicken many pulsebeats; it is largely based on the platform adopted last summer at Chicago, Illinois.
