Irving Kristol. who was at that time an editor of the Liberated Periodical Commentary. wrote an article for a British magazine. captioned "Ordeal by Mendacity." I make the point to the Senate that there was no suit for libel. even though libel laws in Britain. as everyone knows. are exceedingly stringent. Owen Lattimore. in addition to being an apologist for the Chinese Communists and one of the original proponents of the agrarianreformer thesis. also pretends to expertness on Outer Mongolia. The Outer Mongolian Government. according to monitored radio reports. has taken Lattimore to its bosom during the course of his present visit. and Lattimore has reciprocated by embracing the Outer Mongolian Government. Lattimore told an Outer Mongolian audience that it is high time that their country was admitted to the United Nations. He also apologized abjectly for some incorrect statements he had made about Outer Mongolia in articles written years ago. I find it difficult to escape the conclusion that some serious significance attaches to Owen Lattimores presence in Outer Mongolia.
