JAPAN:
On the SPOT

Lieut.. Gen. Robert L. Eichel-
berger, former military governor
of occupied Japan, admitted he
might have made a mistake in not
leaving the Japanese few guns
for their own protection.
1T BOILS down-as most inter-
national difficulties do these days
to a matter of Communism and
Communist influences inside the
country.
AS matter of fact, said Eichel-
berger, Communist pressure in
Japan and the Far East in general
may force the u. S. to carry out
a limited rearmament of the Japa-
nese.
II believe I went too far in dis
arming the Japanese" he said.
'They need few machine guns
and rifles to protect themselves
against internal disturbances.
"IF AND when the American
army withdraws, the Japanese will
have to be given something with
which to defend themselves
strong police force or a small
army"
Communist influence in Japan, he
said, sis about the same as it is
here. They are nuisance beyond
their numerical strength. But it's
always the wrong guy that gets the
pistols"

ATOM PLANE:
SeUen Years.?

Look up into the sky in about sew
en- years and you might see an
atomic-powaxed airplane scudding
across the clouds. Scientists now
think there is good chance that
nuclear-propelled aircraft will be
in production by that time.
AN OAK RIDGE scientist, David
M. Poole, startled the atom-con-
scious public with the announce
ment that the theory of an atom
driven airplane has been worked
out to completion and is ready to
be translated by engineers into
actual plans for such a plane. .
The nuclear scientists have
thought out a way to tap the power
of mobile atomic pile. Poole said.
The problems ahead are to de-
wise the engine, fuselage and con.
trolls and to build a shield to pro.
tect the planes crew.
Poole disclosed that the scien.
lists have made up their minds how
to make the best use of the power
whose source is the heat general.
ed in an atomic pile.
What kind of engine will be used
to chain the tremendous power cen
centrated in the uranium fuel? The
rocket-thrust motor was tried and
abandoned, said Poole. Steam tur.
bine, turbo-jet and ram jet all were
| crossed off.
THE POWER unit will be a '.nu.
clear rocket" Just what a nuclear
rocket might be is top-secret infor.
nation. All anyone can even guess
at at this point is that it probably
involves a new principle of appl-
! cation of power.

CEASE FIRE:
Holy Land

Almost before anyone knew what
was happening fierce fighsing be-
tween Israeli and Egyptian forces
had fared into bloom in the Negev.
southern Palestine desert area.
ISRAELI government spokesmen
said the purpose of the Israeli at
tack was to smash open the road to
Jewish settlements in the Negev.
Blocked transportation lines had
prevented the Jews from running
supply conveys to isolated settle
ments in the district.
But DR.. Ralph Bunche, acting
Palestine mediator for the U. NJ,
In his report to the security coun-
Gil. told a different story. Blame
for the eruption of fighting in the
Negev, he said, was not a question
Of black and white"
''EACH side has soiled its hands
in the grim business of trying to
win war through the Instrumental
ity of a forced truce" was his YER
sion of the conflict.
BY the time the battle had pro-
ceeded savagely for six days the
harassed U. N. security council had
had enough. It commanded both
Arabs and Jews to issue immedi-
ate cease-fire orders.
Earlier, Bunche had attempted o
promote a three-day truce in the
fighting, with each side holding the
positions it then was occupying. The
effort fell through, however, when
Israel rejected the proposal.
EVEN as the security council act
ed the fighting was spreading from
the Negev to other fronts in the
Holy Land-alOng the Jerusalem.
Tel Aviv highway. where Trans
Jordan forces were grouped, and
northeast of Tel Aviv in areas held
by other Arab forces.
Results of the security council or
der. at the outset, at least, were
disappointing. Each side tried to
shift the blame to the other: neither
appeared willing to hold the battle.
Palestine truce observers in
formed the United Nations that the
Israeli forces generally appeared to
be the attackers in the new fighting,
that had developed outside the
southern front in the Negev.

DEFENSE:
Big Budget

World tension had Stacked of
slightly, but according to President
Truman's estimate on next years
defense budget the U. S. doesn't in
tend to relax it's vigilance on that
account.
THE MILITARY budget for 1949
will be a neat .14.4 billion dollars
that is, if Mr.. Truman's current re-
quest doesn't get trimmed. It rep
resents an outlay about two billion
dollars higher than the figure at
which defense spending is running
now.
ct doesn't make any difference
whether President Truman won or
lost the election. He still was re-
quired to prepare budget estimates
for the congress convening next
january
The President said that his de-
tense officials had wanted budget
of around % billion dollars for the
fiscal year starting July l, but that
he had cut them back to the 14.4
billion figure.
WITH RARE candor he admitted
that it would take a Croesus to
maintain spending as many billions
as the officials wanted. His own
aim, Mr.. Truman said, was to get
military program the country
could pay for.
He added that he hoped eventu-
ally to reduce military expenditures
to about five to seven billion dol
lars-a remarkably optimistic state
ment, coming as it did before the
election when he was conceded vir-
tually no chance of being able to
control any kind Of governmental
spending after the first Of the year.

CONTROL PLAN:
For atoms

How to establish effective, work.
able control Of atomic energy on an
international scale is one of the
rocks upon which the U.N has al
most foundered more than once,
but the situation began to look a
shade or two brighter when the
United Nations suddenly steeled its
resistance to almost impossible Rus
sian demands on the issue.
OVER the objections of the Soviet
bloc, the U.N. political committee
overwhelmingly endorsed the west
ern plan for atomic control as a
necessary basis for eventual elimi-
nation of atomic weapons.
The conflict which has kept the
atomic control problem deadlocked
for so long is simply this:
The U. S. and the West insist that
an air-tight system of international
control and inspection must be es-
tablished before the u. S. would
feel safe in destroying its atomic
weapons.
The resolution which the political
committee adopted is generally in
line with the American policy. The
plenary session of the general as
sembly was expected to give it a
routine final approval.
Peculiarly enough, this was the
Arst time since Bernard Baruch
presented the American plan to the
atomic energy commission in June,
1916, that all Of the United Nations
had chance to vote on it. Previ-
ously atomic energy was discussed
only in the security council and the
atomic energy commission.
SHORTLY prior to the U.N. ac-
ton the u. S. had demanded that
the world group turn the deadlocked
problem over to the FIVE great pow
ers and Canada for direct negotia-
tions.
At that time Warren r. Austin,
chief U. S. delegate, had told the
,58-nation political comr:1ittee that
the U.N. could go no further in its
efforts to control the atom until the
Soviet union agreed to participate
In the world community on a co.
operative basis
HOW much good the U.N. vote oi
approval would do as loIg as the
Russians continued to object was a
question that remained hanging fire
1t was conceded generally that
regardless of how much satisfaction
the western nations might achieve
by thus overruling snd sl,ubbine
Moscow, the paramount problem
that of preserving the peace--prob
ably had not been moved very fal
along the road to a solution.

SQUABBLE:
YugosIavid

Russia continues not only to have
great and grievous trouble with the
United States and differences of
opinion with most of the member
countries of the United Nations, but
her political rift with the up-start
satellite also is growing worse in
stead of better.
THE. TROUBLE originally began
within the framework of the Comm
form Communist Information Bu-
reaU, the master organization
through which Russia controls her
satellites, when Marshall Tito said
his nation would not bow to the
Cominform edict ordering Yugo-
slavia to make itself precise mod
ell Of Soviet Russia in all political
and economic aspects.
And in recent weeks the ''heresy"
of Tito and the central committee
of the Yugoslav Communist party
has become more absolute and
more determined than ever.
THAT holds true despite the fact
that Yugoslav Foreign Minister Ed
ward Kardelj has been displaying
firm adherence to the position of the
Russian bloc in the United Nations
general assembly arguments.

Progressive party on the ballots of

keep his party alive for the 1852

In a prediction speech in De-
troit he criticized "doubters" who
argue that although new party
is needed, it shouldn't be formed
until 1949.
WHILE Wallace didn't name any
names he obviously was referring
to the United Auto Workers, headed
by Walter Reuther, who had an
nounced plans to form a genuine"

peopls after the election.
The UAW leadership had con-

Free Press Is
Best Check

The next day at the White House
news conference, Hoover said he
would not comment on the meeting
(though the notice had appeared
in the papers), and that he consid-
cred it the duty of the press not to
print anything which was only par
tally true, or else incomplete.
Richard Oulihan of the New York
Times, one of the most be-
loved and respected correspondents
who ever covered Washington, and
an outstanding leader, made typ
ically dignified. but very emphatic
protest then and there. He said it
was out of The question to ask the
reporters not to get as complete a
story as they could. It was pointed
out by another well-known reporter
that the press would have to have
the story, and the reporters would
have to get it, regardless Of the
Presidents wishes.
The President refused at first, but
the reporters insisted. Finally he
agreed to give out an official state
ment after the conference.
have known other examples
Of short-lived gag rules. One
which Secretary of the Treas
ury Morgenthau tried to estab-
lish on the treasury. He issued
an order that none Of the treas
ury officials could talk with
newsmen. He might as well
have told reporters not to read
the market quotations. 1t failed.
Legitimate news continued to be
reported as it always had been.
Franklin Roosevelt had, at one
time, at least 80 per cent of the
newspapers against" him. He
knew he couldn't change their edi-
torial views by giving out news to
their representatives. He also knew
that if he tried to withhold news,
the American people would be far
less likely to support him. And be-
cause he understood the meaning
of the freedom of the press, he
wouldn't have thought of trying.
And he knew hoy to make it appear
as favorable as possible.
The most effective check in a
democracy is not the first, second
or third, but the fourth estate. An
unenlightened public conceivably
might elect totally bad president
and totally bad congress which
would establish totally bad su-
preme court, but unless the press is
gagged, the public in democracy
cannot be democratically unen-
Gghtened.

be the public relations secretary
in the White House. The other was
man who probably won't be in
Washington at an-Dewey's veteran
political adviser, Edwin Jackie.
There was no conflict between the
two, a rare situation indeed. Jackie
supplemented Hagerty.
This would seem to contradict the
sharp charges of Warren Moscow,
author of Politics in the Empire
State" which came out this fall.
Moscow, one of New York City'S
top-rank political reporters, who
also covered Albany, claims that
Dewey shut down news sources dur
ing his governorship in an attempt
to thwart any criticism. That he
even tried to lay down a press con-
ference rule that question was
"off the record" thus covering up
the fact that an answer had been
given not to be made public or had
been refused. Moscow asserts that
Dewey wanted to be the oracle, the
one and only, the sole source Of
what should be reported.
# that was true earlier in Dewey's
career. the dapper New Yorker
who has been widely-touted Of late
for being able to take advice and
for being able. to pick people who
know how to advise, has had some
good advice. If he should revert to
methods such as Moscow describes,
two things would happen: first, he
would suffer; second, he would fail
in his attempt, and the effects Of
the effort might be permanently
disastrous.
\ Some presidents have tried to
conduct government by dis
turbing the "checks and bal
ances." It never works long
and the freedom Of the press
is one Of the checks-a prin-
ciple that is part and parcel
Of the American concept Of
government.
A notable example Of how the
very weight Of the news, legitimate
news, breaks through any wall, was
the case of the financial conference
called by President Hoover just be-
fore the end of his regime-1931, to
be exact. Hoover had no intention
whatever of deceiving the public.
He simply didn't understand that
you couldn't have gathering like
that without making an adequate
, explanation of some kind. At any
rate just a bare announcement was
issued.

 Who our Lords birthday keep As day of thankful gladneSs, With a joy that lieth deep. While the grass and tender herb age
 Hidden are beneath the snow, And the rudest blasts of winter With sharp, icy coldness blow, Brightly deck they little gift-trees, Glittering with their gilded fruit Papers, nuts, and Waxen angels Pendant from each dark green
 shoot.
 And while thus they show each Otnef,
 By these tokens of their love, How they value beyond praising The great gift of God above, They forget not humber creatures Who their gladness annot share, Fen the little birds of Heaven, Twittering in the wintry air. High against a wall are mounted Unthrashed oats bound on a pole,
 Where the snow-birds feast upon them;
 Ever this their Christmas dole. And l think the little snow-birds Must repay them by their mirth Singing sweeter songs of spring time, Making glad the barren earth.
