Because of its predominant importance this article in the series "Problems of Australian Foreign Policy" deals exclusively with the Suez crisis; other aspects of Australian foreign policy will be brought up to date in the next number of the Journal.

This article describes the author's thoughts on the events surrounding the attempted British covert operation on the Suez Canal in 1956 in the context of a cricket game. The author discusses how the end of the British imperial era, of which the Suez Canal fiasco was about the final piece, was occurring during a cricket game in which GB was victorious. The author tells the two stories simultaneously as a metaphor for British politics at the time. E. Miller

Professor Herman Finer, author of fourteen books on world politics, and political institutions and philosophy, has now written a morality tale abounding with italics, capital letters, and searing words. The burden of his tale is this: In July 1956, John Foster Dulles thoughtlessly provoked a ruthless dictator into nationalizing the Universal Suez Canal Company which controls the lifeline of the West. Then Dulles compounded his sins. He failed to support our closest Western allies by holding the rest of the world at bay while our friends rightfully resorted to force against a Nasser who had rejected an international management board for the Canal.
