"I should point out that I consider Woodrow Wyatt one who is notably indifferent to suffering, but speaks and writes solely to advance those who may advantage him. I am not in the business of promoting the Cold War. To the contrary, I am concerned to prevent brutal governments from annihilating whole populations. I oppose political imprisonment as effectively as I can, no matter who is the author of it. That is sufficient answer to any such enquiry. As for Mr. Wyatt, he received more than he deserved."
"P.S. One of the important reasons why Mr. Woodrow Wyatt was unable to oppose Soviet nuclear tests which result in the poisoning of present and future generations is because he has been so shameless an apologist of Western nuclear tests. It is this sort of hypocrisy that I deplore."
