  Page 501, line 44: A Reuters correspondent was also present, and he reported that “the khaki-clad Chinese soldiers filtered in. They were hungry but fit, wore peaked caps, rolled-up trouser legs, carried blankets and personal gear but no arms. Donovan met the Chinese in Burma and escorted them across the border into Thailand. They flew to Taiwan from the Lampong airstrip.” Chicago Tribune, Nov. 9, 1953.

  Page 503, lines 31–44: Hoover Institution.

  Page 504, line 15: Eisenhower wrote to Donovan, “In accordance with our understanding I am accepting your resignation as American ambassador to Thailand, to take effect on a date to be determined later. I take this action with extreme reluctance for I am aware of the drive, energy and devotion which has characterized your service.

  “Your accomplishments on this assignment reflect a broad comprehension of the complex factors so influential in the molding of our policy toward the free nations of Southeast Asia.” Sept. 15, 1954, Allen Dulles papers, Princeton University Library.

  Page 505, line 25: Donovan returned to Chicago again in 1956 to address the Chicago-area Council of the American Veterans Committee. “The paradox of our foreign policy is that we have been forced to seek alliances with countries whose interests are not always parallel to our own,” he said. “Our alliance with countries like Britain, France, and Holland raises grave doubts in the minds of Asians and Africans who remember these countries as their former colonial masters.

  “While we gave material support to the French in Indochina as part of an international defense against the expansion of Communism, we neglected to give proper attention to the needs of the Vietnamese themselves. What we saw clearly as a struggle against Communism, the Vietnamese saw as against a background of a century of French colonial domination.” Donovan concluded that the United States must find a method to support free nations of Asia against “a new colonialism—Communist imperialism.” Chicago Tribune, April 24, 1956.
