I spent considerable time in Germany and Austria investigating conditions there. I talked with many personal contacts of my own. American and British officials. Germans. Austrians. and many refugees from behind the Iron Curtain. In regard to thislatter category. the difficulties which they have had to surmount to reach freedom have been enormous. I know so many of them who have made the attempt to cross the mine fields. to pass through the barbed wire. to evade the guards and the police dogs and the searchlights. I know so few of them who have actually succeeded in getting through. For example. with regard to one Communist country.
