Europe Has Seen
Of Him, Vogeler
Europe will never see. Robert Vogeler again, if he has anything
to say about it. When questioned about the possibility that he would
return to Europe Vogeler replied, "I wouldn't want to travel abroad
again either a's a businessman or a private citizen," and added as an
afterthought, "or as a prisoner either." I like,•it here, and have had
all the foreign service (15 years of it) I want."
The 40-year-old native of New
York. City smilingly confessed to
playing hooky from his wife. She
was at home fixing up their new
apartMent in New York.
Moving from domestic matters,
he said he felt fine physically, but
that his 17-month imprisonment
had left him with a slight case of
nerves. This seemed to remind
him of his duty to himself; and
he slipped a little pill into his
mouth.

Bitterness TAclang
Outwardly, there are no signs
of the physical exhaustion he suf
fered while in prison. He is a
pleasant person to talk to, - and
speaks in a low, well-modulated
voice. The .bitterness that could
conceivably be found there is
lacking, but he speaks with deep
conviction on the, subject of
Russo-American relations.
He was shocked that United
States authorities saw fit to pay
the demanded ransom for his re
lease, and feels
.that the right
thing to do was to begin the "get
tough" policy that is just now be
ginning to take shape.
However, VOgeler backtracked
a moment when the subject of
William Oatis' imprisonment was
broached. Oatis, chief of the Pra
gue (Czechoslovakia) bureau of
the Associated Press, was impris
oned five days before Vogeler was
released. He now feels that since
the precedent of paying ransom
was set in his case, everything
should be done to bring about
Oatis' release. Working on Oatis'
imprisonment, Vogeler feels that
the U. S. was the victim of a Rus
sian double cross. He 'said that
once the authorities had arranged
for his release, the Communists
started looking around for an
other „American to humiliate and
picked - Oats.
Russians Flaunt XL S.
Vogeler said many times the
Russians are trying in every way
possible to rob the enslaved
people of all hope that salvation
will come from the West. •By
strutting their power and, hurting
the U: S. in any way, possible,
they are trying to take away all
hope from Rfissian non-Commun
ists and the satellite peoples.
Getting back to his forced -st \ ay
in Hungary, Vogeler said that
while many times he felt com
pletely alone and discouraged,
deep down inside him, he always
felt that in some way, the U. S.
would secure his release. "I tried
to keep in good physical condition
as much as , possible so that I
wouldn't- be too badly off when
my release did come about," he
said.
~Sees Red General
Russians were in evidence in
Hungary, Vogeler said, and three
days before he left, a general, of
the Russian MGB, the security
willed, brushed - past him in a hall
way. Vogeler himself was que--
boned by Russians. Although
they were not in uniform, he
identified them by their accent.
As_to the possibility of a revol
ution inside the Iron Curtain,
Vogeler had his doubts about •it.
While there definitely is a revolu
tionary feeling, there are no
leaders to crystallize such a
movement. •
Vogeler uttered a warning
about any movement toward so
cialism by this country. He said
that when any / country begins to
take freedom for granted, and
concentrates on other things,
only the loss of freedom can re
sult. He said the people must al
ways keep in mind that freedom
is never fully won; thitt• it must
be fought for constantly, and if
the people go soft, and lose their
spirit, freedom will slip away
from them much more easily than
it was gained.
