Several years ago, Belgium’s Premier, P. H. Spock made a statement in the newspaper:

“The truth is that the method of international committees has failed. What we need is a person, someone of the highest order of great energy.

“Let him come and let him come quickly. Either a civilian or a military man, no matter what his nationality, who will cut all the red tape, shove out of the way all the committees, wake up all the people and galvanize all governments into action. Let him come quickly. This man we need and for whom we wait will take charge of the defense of the West. Once more I say, it is not too late, but it is high time.”
