Description
Three studies of Secretary of State Dean Acheson as he addressed the largest gathering of the Commonwealth Club since the late President Franklin D. Roosevelt addressed them in 1932. Speaking on the Far East, he warned the Chinese people that they would bring "grave trouble" on to "aggressive or subversive adventures" beyond China's borders.
