Mr. Moss had been warning that, as Mr. Buckley paraphrases him, "There are indications that social democracy [in Great Britain], in its passion for equality is not only engaged in creating relative poverty, but losing significantly its commitment to democratic method." Mr. Janitschek, meanwhile-whose organization's members include Olof Palme of Sweden, Willy Brandt of West Germany, and Bruno Kreisky of Austria-is committed passionately to the cause of socialism, but equally passionately to the cause of democracy. A civil but hard-hitting three-cornered battle. WFB: "Jack Jones,... who is the most prominent labor-union leader, I guess, in Great Britain, finds himself 'at home' in East Germany. Do you know why he finds himself at home there?" HJ: "... Maybe he's got personal friends there. As a democratic socialist I don't think that Jack could possibly wish to live in East Germany under a repressive system."... RM: "I think that we should take people at their word. After all, an obscure agitator in Germany, called Hitler, wrote a silly book called Mein Kampf, which the bourgeoisie shrugged off as a silly book which could never be taken seriously, and he proceeded to carry out coldly most of the things that he put down in writing in that book. I think it's likely to prove the same with our left-wing extremists in Britain today."
