I do not impute the friendship of the Russian people to the top Soviet leadership. What interested me was that after 40 years of Communist rule. with the most vicious kind of propaganda against the American people and against the West. the Russian people were friendly. I had an opportunity to go into their homes and to meet them. both in European Russia and in Asiatic Russia. I could not help feeling that we and the rest of the free world would gain by an exchange of persons with the Soviet Union. even if some of those who came to this country from the Soviet Union wereas the distinguished Senator has pointed outhardened. disciplined Communists. I believe that such exposure to the Western World could not but help aid the cause of world peace and freedom.
