AM going to speak of the mending of a frontier. I claim to be a new kind of veteran-a veteran of frontiers. The journey which this title necessitated took me last summer 32 times across frontiers, and if you know what it means to cross a border line now in Central Europe, I think you will admit that I deserve this name. I learned that frontiers are very unhappy places. All of them, unless they are oceans or the highest mountains, are artificial boundaries. They cut across the web of human life and the pulse beats more slowly. On the new frontiers, the recent cuts are still gashes, raw wounds. There you hear more hate and more history being enacted than you do in the interior and the history is always one-sided
