This article presents information political conditions in the world during 1949. In casting about for reasons to explain the U.S. Republican party's periodic disasters, some of the leaders came up with the idea that perhaps a program would help. American government's prime purpose is to prepare for the more or less inevitable war with the Soviet Union, to which end social-welfare programs must be curtailed, secrecy enforced, and political dissidence suppressed. Sympathy aroused by Yugoslavia Prime Minister Marshal Tito's so far successful rebellion is said to be spreading in the neighboring countries, and pro-Tito sentiment has invaded the French and Italian parties.
