PUBLIC AND PRIVATE RESPONSIBILITY IN THE CONDUCT OF
FOREIGN RELATIONS
One of the blessings of our free society is the
availability to the President and to the Department of State of a
great deal of free and unsolicited advice on foreign policy.
This counsel comes in abundance from Congress, from the press,
from private individuals and organizations, and from foreign
nations. One gets the Impression at times that high officials
in the executive branch feel that they are getting more guidance
than they want or need, but there is nothing very disturbing
about that — it may in fact be all to the good.
It is disturbing, however, — very disturbing indeed and
very mischievous — when private groups or businesses or
individuals take it on themselves, by act or omission, to alter or
dictate or defeat official policies of the United States
Government. This amateur policy making — or policy breaking — can
be accomplished by almost any group or organization endowed
