Answer 1

Answer: Disagreements over what kind of postwar government the Allies would establish in Poland surfaced first at the Yalta Conference. Truman demanded of the Soviet ambassador to the United States that a democratic government be established in Poland.

Answer 2

Answer: Both Truman and Eisenhower believed in self-determination and the superiority of American institutions. Both opposed communism, although Eisenhower was more willing to be accommodating. Ruthless Stalin was determined to rebuild the U.S.S.R. and maintain control of Eastern Europe.

Answer 3

Answer: The United States wanted to spread the vision of liberty, democracy, and economic opportunity, as well as promote free trade and markets for American products. The Soviets were concerned primarily with securing their borders, rebuilding their economy, and spreading communist ideology.

Answer 4

Answer: In 1950, Lorwin, a left-wing Socialist during the 1930s, found himself accused of having been a Communist party member and, hence, a security risk in his government job, which he had held for 16 years. He was brought before a congressional investigating committee, which failed to protect his civil rights by refusing to identify his accuser. He was victimized by Senator McCarthy and did not have his name cleared until 1954.

Answer 5

Answer: FALSE
