Taruc apparently signed nothing, but
agreed verbally to the settlement, and he
has now been formally seated as member
of the Philippine Congress. The amnesty
proclamation makes no mention of the land
reforms which the Huks have demanded.
The eventual outcome may depend both on
Taruc's ability to control his followers and
upon the amelioration OF conditions that
have formed the basis for peasant unrest
The extent to which Communist influence
has permeated the peasantry will likewise
be revealed by the manner in which the

attached to Greek operational units in advisory
capacity
Guerilla activities, large-scale attacks by
armed bands supported by Soviet satellites to
the North and the lack Of proper military
equipment were handicaps too great for war
ravaged Greece to overcome without aid. With
out it, Greece would have fallen victim to
communism. American aid meant better
equipment, reorganization of the Greek Army.
technical advisors and consultants, and better
morale. American aid has given rise to vast
improvement in military effectiveness which
is now being demonstrated.
AS the Greek Army moves northward, its goal
is to subdue the bandits or drive them across
the border. Once driven out, they will be kept
out by forces stationed at the border
In the face of this determined onslaught, it
is reported that guerilla leaders are asking Bel
grade, Sofia and Moscow for more help. 1t
also has been reported that allies of the guer-
ilas are sending out peace feelers to the
Greeks, but this may be a ruse
However, 1t Is a fact that large numbers Of

munist rebellion. With this turn of events.
Russia may have to decide whether to let the
Communists lose the war or whether to give
assistance openly In view of the American
stand on this issue, 1t hardly seems that open
assistance will be forthcoming

Leaving by Back Door

To the Editor of The Star
Public commendation is due to the driver
who on Sunday, June 20, between Sis and
$40 pm operated vehicle No. 1888 on the bus
line H-2 from Catholic University to West
moreland Circle NV. At each major stop
some IL or Is persons alighted from the bus
to make room for an equal number OF per-
sons waiting to board. AS usual, the ma
jority Of the passengers turned to the front
door for exit; it did not occur to them, or
they did not care, that in not using the rear
door they were wasting the time Of the per-
sons waiting to board and indeed of all the
passengers
The driver did fine thing. He coirteously
invited everybody to leave by the rear door.
The appeal falling on many deaf ears, he
simply kept the front door shut until every
body turned back. There was no grumbling
on the part of the people who were thus being
educated. They saw the point, and complied.
Hundreds of hours of .bus time are wasted
in this city by people thoughtlessly or selfishly
using the front door rather than the rear door
in alighting. 1t is suggested that Capital
Transit start a campaign to end this bad
habit. Posters inviting the public to leave by
the rear door should be placed in each bus,
preferably on the inside Of the front exit WIN
dow and all drivers should be instructed to act
up to the public spirit and commonsense
shown by their colleague. Here is an oppor-
tunity for Capital Transit to improve its
service without any additional expenditure.

Letters to The Star
Fable of Hoptoad and Cracker

Fable of Hoptoad and Cracker
To the Editor Of The STAR
It Is depressing to see women adopt a mill
tary career. In a recent issue Of The Star the
woman's military service chiefs are posed
around = globe in the Pentagon Building. The
women are laughing in gay abandon, with
apparently no realization of the sinister back
ground Of their calling.
War is the vivisection of man, under the
peculiar notion that 1t is necessary for testing
whether this form of government, or that
shall prevail. It now has reached the stage
where all governments are threatened.
The smiling nonchalance of the service
chiefs, and Of any one else who would engage
with the atom bomb and its progeny, reminds
one of the fire cracker and the toad:
20 nre cracker, round and red
Come play with me-" the hoptoad said.
The cracker no reply made he,
But simply sputtered frightfully.
why won't you come and play, my dear?"
Inquired the hoptoad, drawing near.
Il can't because I'm going off, You're going
where?
And shall you like it when you're there?
And do you go pleasant road?"
The crackers eyes with anger glowed,
And into frightful rage he hew
And into a thousand pieces, too,
And that was the end Of the cracker red
And the poor hoptoad was dead, dead, dead"

Sri Chakravarty Rajagopalachari
Inda's First Indian Governor-General Takes Office
In Succession to Lord Mountbatten
By O. NJ. Green

palachari. He indeed is far from being a typi-
cal Oriental politician. His quick grasp OF
essentials in an atmosphere pervaded by the
mist of oratorical theorizing, and his ability
to see the other mas's point of>view, make him
an easy person for Westerners to understand
Characteristic Of his clear-cut and air-mfnded
attitude is his pamphlet, "The Way Out
which he wrote In 1914 in criticism OF Con-
gress' attitude towards the Cripps proposals.
This and other deyiations from the strict Con-
gress line have not made C. r. popular with
Indian Nationalists but they have earned him
respect.
This respect, and his long service in the
Nationalist cause, led to his being given seat
in the cabinet in the Interim Government in
September, 1916, as Minister Of Industries and
Supplies. Since the partition in August, 1s47,
c. R. has been Governor of West Bengal, and
the tranquility which has reigned between that
part Of the Province and Pakistan's East Ben
gal Is tribute to his wise and temperate ad-
ministration. He also acted as governor-gen-
eral, during the absence Of Lord Mountbatten
in Britain on the occasion of Princess Eliza
beths wedding.
Now, holding this high ONCE in his own
right he will bring to 1t the mind not only
of statesman but Of scholar. He has
short stories, studies of Socrates. Marcus
Aurelius, the Hindu Upanishads and Bha-
gavad-Gita as we'll as Prohibition Manual"
on drink and drugs in India. His tastes
are simple and austere, and when his ap-
pointment was announced it was generally
prophesied that Government House would be
shorn of much of its ceremonious trappings.
The leading Madras newspaper, Hindu" de-
scribed the new Governor General as "a
leader of unbending integrity. selfless devotion
to DUTY and iron discipline"
Independent and Moderate.
Rajagopalachari does hot come to his new
position with any ideas OF welding great
power He has in fact expressed the belief
that he we'll may be the last Indian Cover
nor General as well as the first.-the end
Of q line OF great administrators stretching
back to Warren Hastings. This belief would
imply the separation Of India from the British
Commonwealth, but Rajagopalachari made 1t
plain that this would come about only through
India's own WISH not at "the behest Of for
eigners who for their own reasons are putting
pressure on India to declare her complete
independence"
Such statements tend to show not only that
the new Governor General has preserved his
independence of Judgment, but also that he
is less OF a figurehead than he himself likes
to make out Though his actual power may
be crcumscribed by constitutional limitations
and personal inclination, his moderating In
fuence and the wisdom born Of long experience
may have a profound effect on the future Of
the new Indian nation.

The Number Is SterIino 5000

A story in last Fridays Star recalled
some interesting Washington telephone
history in connection with our new tele-
phone Misunderstanding 5000. Frank 3.
Noyes, chairman of the board of The
Star, remembers another fact that may
be unrecorded-that the first telephone
In Washington connected to a central
office was in The Star. The story was
told to him by the man who installed it
the late George c. Maynard. Mr.. Maynard
ran an electrical supply store in the '70s
and when the telephone was invented he
secured the agency for Washington in
1877 as an adjunct to his business. He
told Mr.. Noyes that the first line he ran
from his office was connected d to The Star.
Two instruments had been previously
installed by Mr.. Maynard, connecting two
Offices of the Signal Corps of the Army.
But the next line went from his office to
The Star and another to the Senate.
Writing an article many years later for
the Electrical Review, Mr.. Maynard re-
called that of the eight or ten lines
running from his Office in the fall of
1877. one went to The Star and another
to the Capitol, and it was in connection
with demonstrating the advantages of his
embryonic telephone exchange, operated
by the late Bernard L. NevfuS, that he
persuaded The Stars Capitol reporter to
use the telephone for late news resulting
In a succession of scoops over other after
noon papers
The idea caught on, for telephone

Greek Campaigns Progress

To the Editor of The Star:
Your editorial of last Wednesday entitled
"rhe Greek Offensive" was timely and to the
point.
The Greek Armys drive against bandit and
guerilla forces in the north is in full swing
Some 10000 Greek troops are battling their
way over rugged mountainous terrain in de-
terrnined effort to subdue the bandits or drive
them out of Greece. This large-scale effort,
greatest in the long civil war, bears out the
favorable report on the Greek military situa-
ton. made recently by Dwight P. Griswold.

On March II, l947, President Truman told
Congress that Greece must have aid If she is
to become "sef-supporting and self-sustain-

aid and the sending of military and civil per@

headed BY Mr. Griswold arrived in Athens IN

The Hulk Rebellion Ends

President Quirino's proclamation grant
ing full amnesty to the rebels OF Central
Iuzon gives promise Of ending an evil
legacy of the Japanese occupation OF the
Philippines. 1t also may be the basis for
settling a yexatious economic and social
problem that has been a source OF trouole
since Spanish days.
Central Luzon is the most fertile ana
most densely populated portion OF the
main island In the archipelago. Under
spanish rule, the best land was In Spanish
hands, chiefly in the form OF large estates
many of these belonging to the cnurcn
This spelled landless and Impoverished
peasantry, fertile breeding ground OF
chronic discomfort Although the situa-
ton was much improved under American
rule, grievances still existed and conoltlohs
grew worse under the Japanese occupa-
ton. The discontented peasantry formed
an important section of the Filipino re-
sistance movement, and acquired political
status as we'll as arms from their part IN
the struggle against the japanese invaqer
This heightened political consciousness
engendered an organization known as
Hukbalahap, which means the Peasants
Union. under the guidance of dynamic
leader named Luis Taruc. The "Huks," as
they were colloquially known, demanded
drastic land reforms as the price OF their
adhesion to the restored Philippine gov
ernment. When their demands were
refused, they started rebellion which
proved dificult to suppress.
The Filipinos have always been apt at
guerrilla warfare, waged by small bands
operating chiefly at night and supported
by their noncombatant adherents, who
were ostensibly peaceful peasants. The
Hulk discipline was severe, and even non
members were kept terrorized by reprisals
and often forced to contribute to the
cause. Despite the growing efficiency OF
the government forces and constabulary,
the struggle dragged on. The government
considered the Hulk demands excessive and
charged that they were Communist
inspired and communistic in character.
The late President Roxas refused to
parley with the Huks and did his best to
crush the movement by force. His succes-
sor. President ouirino, adopted . more
