EISENHOWER, DWIGHT DAVID. Typed letter signed ("D.E.") as President, to Mr. M. W. Clement in Rosemont Pennsylvania; Washington, 28 June 1960. One page, 4to, on printed White House stationery, light paper clip stain, with original typed envelope.
A few days after the signing of the Japanese Treaty with the United States, Eisenhower comments perceptively on the threat posed by communist activism in Japan: "...I am not in the slightest personally dismayed by the recent events either in Russia or in Japan. My concern is solely with the ground we have lost in creating a climate in which we could develop understanding between the American people and the Russian people--and possibly with the Soviet leaders. As to the events in Japan, I stated as well as I could, last evening, my conviction that the important achievement was the ratification of the Japanese Treaty, which the Communist-inspired riots failed to stop."
