Two typescripts of speeches given at at Rollins College in 1953, and an introductory letter offering the copies of the speeches, sent to Norman Mann by William R. Shelton, Director of Public Relations, Rollins College. General Bradley's speech deals with United States' foreign policy, and the fallacy of claiming that World War III had already begun and that the United States should base its foreign policy on that "fact"; and Lester Pearson's speech, undated, deals with the general mission of the United Nations.
