into a post that was well over his

of suggesting a resignation, so a

work as an educator, archaeologist,
and a score of other things.
Jean and met the doctor through
the American Ambassador, Prentice
Cooper, for whom DR.. Giesecke
serves as special assistant. 1t was
our privilege to see him almost
every day we were in Lima, and to
take a trip with him in Cuzco,
ancient capital of the. Inca empire,
a city of which he was mayor three
times. Oh, what a charming friend,
companion and guide he is!
Peruvians Worship Him.
There isn't a stone in Peru that
he doesn't know the history Of,
and he can tell you about each
and every one with such enthusiasm
that soon you feel you are living
with the Incas. He knows every
tree, bird, herb and flower, and, I
might add. nearly every Peruvian.
The Readers Digest is wrong in
saying that Peruvians love him.
That's an understatement. They
worship him. When we reached
Cuzco the whole town was out to
meet him, and had he accepted
all the invitations to breakfasts,
luncheons, dinners and banquets
that he received, he wouldn't have
had a second to give to us for
sightseeing.
Far from Cuzco, In the smallest
Indian villages, his welcome was the
same. The Indians came from far
in the mountains to pay tribute to
the American who has served them
so long and so unself1shly. Peruvians
are great ones for embracing the
ones they love, and after a walk
through the streets of Cuzco ad-
vised the doctor that he had better
take out insurance against being
hugged to death.
DR.. Giesecke IS 64, but you'd never
know it, either by his appearance or
his vitality. He looks in his early
fifties, and has more energy than
many a college halfback. On our ar
duous climbs up mountains to ex-
anime Inca ruins, he led the way,
scrambling up twisted, narrow trails
as If they were nothing.
Loses Panama Hat.
It was on one Of these trips, when
we were trying to get a better view
of the most beautiful peak in South
America-snow-capped Father Eter-
nal-that he lost his lovely Panama.
The one I sent him only had eight
or nine rings-the more rings, the
better the Panama-whereas the one
that blew of his head and down a
precipice was a 20-ringer.
It was the doctor who introduced
me to Peru's national drink-the
pisco sour, a delicious concoction

white grape, as base. "A great

inadvisable to contemplate armed
invasion of Russia.
But the fighting qualities of the
Red Army in defense of Russian
soil do not imply that it is re-
liable instrument for the conquest
Of Europe. It's prowess was aided
by Russian space and climate, and
although, were I a Russian leader,
I should minimize the role of these
elements to others, I should not
be so reckless as to minimize them
to myself nor overlook the deprecia-
ton of Red Army morale once it
left Russian soil.
Therefore, while I should count
on it to battle valiantly again
against invaders, I should still favor
Turing aggressors as far from home
as possible, even in the atomic age.
Playing With Fire.
If, as is now apparent, the
Soviets hope to extend Russian
hegemony over Europe through the
Communist parties-which would
seem to cancel out military attack,
since how can the Communist
parties pose as defenders of the
sovereignty and independence" of
their states If they count on a
foreign army-then the Russian
Politburo is playing with fire.
The European Communist parties
are inherently weak. Even where
Russian armies stand they have had
to make coalitions with unreliable
allies. Josef Cyrankewicz, for in
stance, is not reliable Communist
ally; neither is the new Hungarian
Ambassador to Washington, Prof.
Rustem Vambery; neither are the
Czechoslovak President and Foreign
Minister. But neither, in show

Creation of New Nine.P Power Comintern
Seen as 'Undeclared Declaration of War

The actual-but not oficial-re-
vival of the Comintern occurred in
1945, when Earl Browder, the big
business minded Communist leader
in America, was fired on orders from
Moscow, and replaced with the old
line Communist, William z. Foster
But Immediately after VI day
the U. S. S. r. was not ready to fling
its challenge to the United States
The satellite states had not been
thoroughly organized and the Amer
ican armed forces had not been de-
stroyed by rehabilitation.
Organization of Russias empire as
far as the Elbe river has now been
completed. All vestiges of active re-
sistance. except for a few local out
bursts in Poland, the Baltic states
and Yugoslavia, have been crushed
American armies overseas and at
home have been reduced to token
forces.
Economic, financial and social
conditions in Britain, France and
Italy have deteriorated and today
are worse than they were soon after
We day. The satellite governments
have been consolidated by purges
and other violent methods.
Smear Campaign.
A campaign of violent denuncia-
ton of Americas imperialism" pre-
ceded the official announcement that
q new Comintern, composed only OF
those nations which sWore fealty
to the U. S. S. R., had been created.
The smear campaign was waged by
the Soviet radio and by Soviet rep
resentatives at the U. N. Andrei
Vishinsky, Russian deputy foreign
minister, accomplished one thing: he
created the feeling in the satellite
states and in some border countries
that America was afraid and power
less.
The fact that none Of the official
American spokesmen answered Mr..
Vishinsky in his own terms was
cleverly exploited by the Red propa-
gandists. It worked to confirm their
contention that America Is too weak
to accept the Red challenge.
According to the views Of some
top-ranking American military men
the hunting season is on for the
USSR and its satellites. Their most
likely hunting grounds in the i'm
mediate future will be Italy and
France in Europe, Iran in the Mid
die East and Manchuria in the Far
East. They expect a substantial bag
since there is no game warden to
challenge their activities.

America and other genuine peace
loving countries placed their high

resolved.
Senator McGrath looks like a
good selection. To be sure, Rhode
Island is the smallest OF the States,
but it belongs to the important New
England group, and he has real
political strength of his own. He
is young and alert, and a faithful
party man. Toots Shor may no
longer have ready access to the
White House, nor is it to be ex-
pected that the new Chairman will
spend so many Of his waking hours
exhibiting himself to the gaping
attention of the frequenters of
nightclubs in New York. He will
give me Democratic National Com
mittee the dignity and prestige it
has lacked for some time.
Did Well BY His Party.
IN insisting that Gael Sullivan,
who had resigned as Executive Di-
rector of the Committee, continue as
the right-hand Of the new Chair
man, President Truman did well by
his party. When he took the tiller
from the erratic hand Of Chairman
Hannegan, Mr.. Sullivan gave the
affairs of the Committee the de-
cision and the imagination that
they had lacked for long time. He
had earned the Craftsmanship, but
he had aroused jealousies. Some Of
the criticisms of him were some
what forced, in view of impressive
evidence that his alert mind would
more than make up for any slight
errors of Judgment. President Tru-
man already owes him a deep debt
for his diplomatic handling of the
powerful railway brotherhood
leader, Alexander F. Whitney, who
avowed that he would spend all Of
the money in his Unions treasury
to defeat President Truman In re-
turn for what he had denounced
as a white House doublecross."
Gael Sullivan would have been
justified in washing his hands of
an administration that seemed to
lack appreciation of vigorous and
intelligent leadership. In respond
ing to the insistent urging OF Presi-
dent Truman that he stay on, he
showed himself to be a better soldier
than the White House cabal de-
served. But since he has yielded to
the pleas of President Truman, he
should be given some protection
from the Missouri gang" to whose
narrow and selfish advice MIR. Tru-
man is still too susceptible.
Mr.. Sullivan might do well to
bear in mind that the Snyders, the
Vardamans and the Vaughans,
whose influence with the President
is too potent for his own good, will
not hesitate to make him sacri-
fetal offering If one should be nee
essary in order to cover up some
egregious blunder Of their own. He
should know that while his position
is one of great influence, it is also
one Of considerable political danger.
Those who have conspired against
him in the past will not overlook
any opportunity to victimize him
for their own personal purposes.
Since he is young man, with an
undoubted future, he owes 1t to
himself to put on his hat and walk
out, closing the door firmly behind

The European Communist mass

Germany. There is sound" dis

European forces.
Stain once recognized that the
only reliable" Communists were
Russians. Certainly the Russians
are taking a great hazard If they
risk what furious revolution in
Europe might spew up.
1t is always grave risk to de-
pend for ones security on the ma

they all affirm common theology

of the gospel according to Marx as
there are Christian sects.
A violent all-European Com

awful for us; but it might ultimately
be fatal for the Soviet Union.
The Soviets could have had a
mutual aid and non-aggression pact
with the United States, on the basis
of neutralizing Europe. They have
chosen an alternative that threatens
peace and promises nothing to long

ness. This was considered a mere
gesture, similar to Russia's lifting OF
the bans against the church. Stain
used this subterfuge to convert the
church into another political arm
throughout the world.
In Russia and the countries inAts
political orbit the church was con-
verted into state institution, with
the hierarchy handpicked and ap-
pointed by the Politbureau. But this
false reinstatement Of religion in the
Soviet Unions national life brought
to the side Of the U. S. s. r. allies
IN the ranks Of some religious de-
nominations in the United States
and Britain. These ecclesiastics have
become an excellent propaganda We

People in the United States and
other Western European countries
enthusiastically welcomed the Sov-
let dictator's announcement that the
Comintern, with its disruptive pol
icies in the domestic affairs Of every
nation, was abolished in 1943. They
swallowed Stains abatement, that
henceforth there would be one world,
with but one objective-perpetual
peace and harmony.
In certain watchful government
departments it was known that the
former militant members Of the
Comintern had gone underground
and were working through their new
tools-ideologists who believed that
old time democracy was doomed and
that a neo-Marxism would replace
it after the war.
