also met with the'group

i the world to hear.
'His 1946 visit was a landmark-in
world affairs. On March 5 of that
year, he spoke at Westminster Col
lege in Fulton, Mo., and denounced
bluntly the “Iron Curtain” that had
(dropped across Europe “from Stet
tin on the Baltic to Trieste in the
Adriatic.”
• ■' ■ L
The half-century of his career as
a statesman ’ has made Churchill a
figure almost as familiar^o Ameri
cans as their own presidents.
Churchill first visited the United
States in 1895. He was on his ’way
to Cuba—to fight with the Spanish
against insurrection.
He made-three more visits, a
tourist and a' lecturer, before he
burst on the scene in Washington as
wartime Prime Minister who, single-
handedly, it seemed, was marshaling
a battered Britain to withstand "the
onslaught of Hitler’s Nazis^
That visit ‘was ‘ shortly after his
1941 meeting at sea with President
Roosevelt to draft the Atlantic
Charter. Pearl Harbor had plunged
the United States abruptly into war.
i Churchill came personally to put
j into foree the alliance between the
British Commonwealth and the
United States—the first steps tow
ards victory in both Europe and
Asia.
There followed three more war
time trips from Downing -Street to
Pennsylvania Avenue, Churchill’s
round, bearping face, his cigar, his
“V” sign, his coverall ^litz suit, his
unmatched oratory became as well
known To Amercians as to British.
Congress heard him review the war’s
progress in the same eloquence that
Lad enthralled Parliament.
The Prime Minister paused after
the Quebec conference of 1943 to
address a convocation at Harvard
University and warn his American
allies that their responsibilities in
a chaotic world would not end with
the war. America’s responsibilities
would be heavy in peace, too, he
.said.
J’The price of greatness,” he said,
“ir responsibility.”
Churchill is half American. His
mother was Jennie Jerome, daughter
of a wealthy New; Yorker. She mar
ried Lord Randolph Churchill, a
younger son of the seventh Duke of
Marlborough. i
Her American influence os her
son has been important. When
Churchill addressed Congress in
1941, he said:
“I wish, indeed, that my mother,
whose memory I cherish across the
veil of years, could have been here.
. . . I cannot help reflecting that,
tf my father had been an American
■and my mother • British, instead of
the other way around, I might
have got here (in Congress) on my
own.”
Churchill, in the minds of many
Anrfericans, remained No. 1 in Bri
tain, even when he became only
leader of his majesty’s opposition to
a Labor government through an
election at the end of the war.
On his vacation visit in 1946, he
vetoed" public welcomes and official
functions. But the whole country
was Keyed up to hear what he might
say in his address accepting an hon
orary degree from Westminster Col-
iege.
The speech resounded Hfcroughout
the world.
The Soviet reaction was quick and
loud. Stalin himself was goaded to
call the former Prime Minister, his
recent close ally, a “warmonger.”
In 1949, Churchill was back in the
United States, this time to accept an
honorary degree from the Massachu
setts Institute of Technology, In this
speech, he observed that his address
at Fulton had caused a world sen
sation, but that events had vindi
cated his views.
The circumstances have little of
the exhilaration of the wartime
Churchill visits, but still, it’s a lot
like old times — Winnie, in Wash
ington again.
