Guerard Calls French Communism National

French communism is not a Russian but a nationalistic brand, Albert J. Guerard, associate professor of English, said last night at the second Leverett House Forum.

Guerard cited neutralism and defeatism as two powerful and dominant negative sentiments in modern French thought. The neutralist force, which includes members of all political coloring, dreads a third World War. However, in the event of war, segments of the neutrals would likely align themselves with America, he continued, while defeatists probably would abandon all hope.
