Wallace B. Donham '98, George Fisher Baker Professor of Administration, emeritus, yesterday hit the State Department as being "impossibly busy and hopelessly confused" in its conduct of foreign policy.
The lecture, entitled "Blind Spots," was the first in a series on "Administration and Modern Society" that Donham will give this year under the auspices of the George E. Weatherby Fund.
"Neither the State Department nor the Defense Department has any important posts filled with men who have training or background in human relations among small groups," Donham told an audience of about 200 in Baker Library. "If they did, they would realize that the Iron Curtain hides only Soviet fear and uncertainty."
Donham added that the American political scene is in an equally had way because of the hysteria aroused by anti-Communist witch-hunts.
