HOLY LAND:
What NOW?

In its first positive action since the
U. S. backed away from its stand
favoring partition, the United Ma
tions security council issued call to
both Jews and Arabs to stop fight
ing in Palestine.
1t probably was a gesture of i'm
potence. rendered even more i'm
potent by the fact that the security
council, although it laid down spe-
cific truce directives to both fac
tions, decided against sending U.N.
commission to the scene of trouble
to check on compliance.
Russia, continuing to favor the
partition plan, refused to support the
truce proposal but at the same time
Andrei Gromyko, Soviet delegate, re-
Trained from applying Russia's big
power veto and thus permitted the
agreement to be concluded.
There was no assurance that either
Jewish or Arab forces would agree
to a United Nations truce and lay
down their arms.
Well aware that the truce proposal
had little or no significance in the
pattern of the Holy Land tragedy,
u. N. delegates shook their heads
gloomily and wondered if the United
Nations, not yet three years old,
might not be a blue baby.
It was clear that the U. MS lack
of "elan vital' in the Palestine prob
lem stemmed directly from the de-
cline of American prestige and
leadership in the world organization.
After having pushed the partition
plan through the U. N. by the sheer
weight of its apparent conviction.
the U. S. suddenly abandoned it's
support of partition in order to dab

East oil as the stakes. Instead OF
partition U. S. leaders advocated .
temporary United Nations trustee
ship. But they failed to indicate
what kind of trusteeship or exactly
how they thought it should be en-
forced.
While the American u. N. delega-
ton was playing hard-to-get, other
delegates were asking what are we
here for?"
Unofficial explanation was that the
u. S. was trying, through Secretary
of State George Marshall in Bogota,
Colombia, to get some South Amer
lean nations to offer to supply the
troops that will be needed to enforce
a trusteeship.

A.WEAPON:
Bi,gO!

Another batch of atoms has been
exploded on the sea-girt wastes Of
Eniwetok aton in the far western
Pacific.
In the words Of the U. S. atomic
energy commission, the event
marked the successful completion of
an ''atomic weapon" There was no
further description of the sixth
known atomic explosion in world
history; but, as always in the case
of applied nuclear physics, the ele-
ment of mystery involved was at
least as awesome as specific knowl-
edge of the instrument might be.
At this stage, the situation between
u. S. and Russia was not unlike
popular American game Of chance.
Democracy had just completed row
of numbers on it's card; and in the
u. S. announcement of new atomic
weapon kibitzers around the world
could hear a loud cry Of 'Bingo!"

NEBRASKA:
Stassen Again

Harold e. Stassen had husked his
political corn well in Nebraska.
Voters in the states preferential
primary-typed this year as pop
ularity poll''-showered their favors
on the wayfaring campaigner from
Minnesota in a field of seven Re-
publican presidential aspirants.
Results of the Nebraska balloting
gave Stassen Is national convention
delegates for at least the first bal
lot. Legally, Nebraska's delegates
60 to the national convention I'M
pledged. By custom, however, the
outcome Of the preferential primary
is binding on the delegates for the
first ballot. Stassen now estimated
that he would command at least 300
delegates on the first ballot in Phila-
de1phia this June.
AS far as Thomas E. Dewey was
concerned, the Nebraska primary
added not a cubit to his political
stature. He ran an Indifferent Sec
ond to Stassen; and there were many
who predicted that this defeat, close
ly following the complete rout Of
Dewey forces in Wisconsin, virtually
eliminated the New York governor
from the COP presidential campaign
arena.
Ohio's Sen. Robert Taft, who had
the support of Sen. Hugh Buffers
state political organization, took
third place, although he had been
expected to show considerable
strength in Nebraska. It was a
critical blow to his political stock.
Far down the list and completely
out of the money were the other
four contenders: Sen. Arthur Van
denberg, Gen. Douglas Macarthur,
Gov. Earl Warren of California and
Speaker of the House Joseph Martin.
AS always after a pivotal political
event such as the Nebraska prf-
mary, innumerable' experts were
scurrying through their mental
gymnas Sums to find significances.
This was the consensus:
Stassen had generated a lot of
horsepower because of his Wiscon-
sin and Nebraska victories. Con-
ceivably, he could sweep the COP
convention, although that contin-
gency was by no means certain yet.
Taft and Dewey were in shoa1
water and heading for the rocks un-
less some outside force gave their
candidates. boost. The question no
longer was whether Taft or Dewey
would get the nomination but
whether they could resolve their
differences long enough to get to-
gether to stop Stassen.
General Macarthur, it appeared,
would not get a chance to accept
the nomination.

EAST, WEST:
II. Italy

By the time officials finished
counting the first vote returns from
Italy's national election there was
no longer any element of surprise
in the fact that the anti Communist
coalition parties were winning two
to-one.
Unusual thing was that tie anti
Red Christian Democrats, Repub-
licans and Social Unity party had
scored such a top-heavy victory.
They led everywhere, even in the
so-called ''Red North" where Com
munists had amassed considerable
strength in the industrial cities. 1t
appeared that the anti-C Communists
had secured absolute majority in
both the Italian senate and chamber
of deputies.
Communist front spokesmen con-
ceded that the election results must
be considered a victory for Pre-
mier Alcide De Gasperi's coalition.
This Italian election had been the
plum for which both the u. S. and
Soviet Russia had been competing
frantically for six months. It was
q real contest. Each nation had sent
myriads of entries: 81 think Italy
should be Communist Cor Com
munist) because" Each entry was
accompanied, not by boxtops, but by
boxcars Of food and machinery as
well as other Establishments.
Victory of the anti-Communists in
the election was, in manner OF
speaking, a clear-cut victory OF
benevolent capitalism over militant
communism. AS such it could exert
tremendous influence on the course
of European history.
Probably the principal factors de-
Gliding the outcome of the election
were passage of the European recov-
cry program and the U. S. proposal
to return Trieste to Italy.
Further, the election appeared to
make an important point concern
ing the workings of Communist ag-
gression: Ability of the Communists
to take over a country is greatly
reduced in cases where the Red
army cannot be brought into posi-
ton to exert pressure on the in
tended victim.
The Red army was not factor
in the Italian elections. 1t was
factor, either through its immediate
presence or it's threatening prox-
unity, in the coups of Czechoslo-
vakia, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria
and eastern Germany.
If that reasoning is sound, a dis
turbing conclusion is evident: Should
Russia realize that Soviet domina-
tion of Europe cannot be accom-
plished without use of military force,
the next step might be to bring the
Red army into action.

LEWIS:
Lost and Fined

All things considered, John L.
Lewis came away from his brush
with the government in fairly good
shape suffering only relatively
minor abrasions of the pocketbook.
For ignoring federal order to end
the soft coal strike that began March
Is over a pension dispute, Lewis was
convicted by Federal Judge T. Alan
Goldsborough Of criminal contempt
of court. AS punishment Judge
Goldsborough imposed a $40, 900 fine
on Lewis personally and fined his
United Mine Workers union a total
Of IA million dollars.
It was almost a verbatim re-en-
actment of the Lewis-Go Goldsborough
drama Of 1916 when the judge fined
Lewis $4,000 and the union 3.5 mil
lion dollars for contempt.
This time, however, Judge Colds
borough wanted to be tough. He
wanted to give Lewis jail term but
refrained from doing so upon advice
from the government, chief prose-
cutor in the case.
Nevertheless, he deplored the gov
ernment's policy Of "expediency"
which dictated that the mine chiefs
punishment should be limited to
fine and that he should not be given
q Jail sentence because that would
make a martyr Of him in the eyes
of the miners.
1t was bad spot for Lewis-per-
haps the worst Of his career. Not
only had he failed to beat the Taft
Hartley act and been forced to &C
cept terms far short of his original
demands in settlement of the pension
dispute, but he also had put his
UNIV treasury IA million dollars in
the hole.
And now, if the miners continued
to stay away from work in protest
against the punishment, the govern
nent retained a powerful weapon it
could WELD. The Taft-Hartley in
junction against them still was pend
ing.
