College Prolessor In Report On Europe Tour

(Editor’s note: Prof. Bruce Hopper, a member of Harvard * university's faculty for 17 years and who served with the office of strategic servioea during World War 11, was ee> lected by the state department to make a “pathfinder” tour of Europe to explore the need far a cultural front against Russia. Ho has outlined his findings for the Naw Bodford. Mass., Standard-Times. In the following article, first of • series of four, Prof. Hopper says that tho United States has got a alngleeager ally in Europe.) By COWARD B. SIMMONS (New Bodford Standard-Times SUff Writer) Distributed by I.NJS. by Special Permission. WOODS HOLE, Mass (INS) — Europe is In no mood to accept further pressure by the United States in behalf of political alliance* or other military buildups against Soviet Communism, a veteran political scientist has concluded after a long tour abroad for tho stats department. Prof. Bruce Hopper, noted Harvard university faculty member, said in his travels in 11 nations he found “shocking criticism’’ and “appalling ignorance" of the United States and its people. “All our allies are reluctant," said the long-time professor of government and armed forces lecturer at his vacation home in Woods Hole. "We haven’t a single eager ally.* Professor Hopper returned last summer after a unique 125-day tour from the Mediterranean to northern Norway. Ho was sent by the state department as its "apostle" or "pathfinder" on a program that may involve a major orlentatation in U. 8. foreign policy. It was his task to explore the need for a cultural front against the Soviet Union, in which the free nations joined, as common heirs of western civilisation, to preserve their heritage because it offers most to mankind. Professor Hopper returned convinde there is “terrific” need of such a cultural program because it would show Europeans “we are not barbarians" and. therefore, increase U. 8. influence and because

he believes a cultural defense is the only successful method of stopping the advance of Communism. On the other hand, he found that political alliances are... regarded with suspicion in Europe and probably encourage inroads of socialism and Communism by weakening the independent state system and promoting federations much like the USSR, itself. In most of the nations he arranged his own schedules for lecturing before bi-natlonal societies, various layman organizations and groupe of interested persons assembled by friends and hosts. It was not a "conducted tour" with top diplomatic and elected officials. Though a veteran traveler in Europe and the Far East and a former resident of China and the Soviet Union. Professor Hopper conceded that many of his Impressions had been a surprise. The conclusion that the policy of extending political alliances was wrong came as a “revelation," he said. Among other views he brought back: Europe's timetable — that the crisis with the Soviet is not imminent — Is more realistic than the U. 8. belief it is close at hand. Encouragement of anti-Commu-nism in Europe is best done by Europeans and not by Americans. Much of Europe is without religious conviction. Europe wants foreign aid but "without Americans.” France is “hoping the miriicle can happen;” that it cah "get by’’ without having Germany tor a partner. As long as Communist China and the United States are at loggerheads, the Soviet Union and Communist China will put off their inevitable collision over control of Manchuria. The once-unchallengeable admiration for the late President Roosevelt among Europeans has greetly diminished because many have come to feel he Is responsible for the stature of Soviet Communism, and thus, is the cause of their troubles. ~ -RB II >»■ « !..| ■ «|» , 111 ■», «, ..«■ I Oil » —ll.l I H I,
