Editorials
April 13, 1957 issue

add to cart   close window

The article presents editorials on various topics for the April 1957 issue of the periodical, The Nation. The House Committee on un-American Activities, which has cited a good many citizens for contempt, now stands convicted of contemptuous conduct; It is unfortunate that American- Philippine friendship is now threatened with disruption. The trouble comes from the ten-year-old pact under which the U.S. got some thirty-two military bases in the Philippines. The government and people want to know why the U.S. insisted on ninety-nine-year tenancy for its bases in the Philippines, while U.S. was content with a ten-year lease for Spanish bases.
