Communists on this and other matters
depends on the documentary evidence
which it will submit.
The practical aspect is less determinable.
Even though the Nationalist government
proves its case and gets favorable reso-
luton from the Assembly, nothing tangible
would necessarily follow, because the
Assembly is not empowered to take action,
that prerogative. being left to the Security
Council, where Moscow holds an absolute
Veto This, of course, is realized by the
Nationalists, as indicated by the statement
made by their official complainant, DR..
Tsiang, who told news conference that
his government was looking for moral
and political judgment" from the Assembly
on China's case. Yet such a judgment
would have considerable practical value.
1t would strengthen the Nationalist gov
ernment in law and equity, while proven
exposure of Moscow's misconduct and bad
faith would further mobilize the sympathy
of the free world on China's side and
against Soviet practices in the Far East.

Not Yet Good Enouoh

In the wake of the Russian atomic report,
there have been several American news
stories to the effect that special aerial
defense system-including radar, ground
watchers and interceptor planes-has been
operating for some time past in Alaska,
the Pacific Northwest and our North At
lantic area. Although unofficial and
speculative, the stories are undoubtedly
correct up to point, but it would be
mistake to conclude from them that the
system is an adequate one.
Actually, of course, even if the world
were in splendidly peaceful state, our
military establishment-for routine train
ing purposes, if for nothing else-would
have to maintain some form of aerial
watch AS for the one now in operation,
present international conditions obviously
make it bit more than an ordinary enter
prise, though there is no good reason to
suppose that 1t reflects a particularly
alarming situation. What it really reflects
is simple, common sense prudence in an
age in which our national security demands
that we be on guard at all timeS-especially
in the air.
Some of the recent news stories have
suggested that our present watchfulness
in that sense is very good, with radar,
ground observers and interceptors func-
tioning day and night, on twenty-four-
hour basis, to keep sharp lookout on our
Northwest and North Atlantic sky ap-
proaches. Just how good the system is,
however, is open to serious question, and
although our military establishment
with security factors in mind-will not
evaluate it publicly, there is reason to
believe that it falls short of what is
needed.
Thus, early this year, Congress heard
expert testimony about the inadequacy of
our radar coverage and the need for a
$161 900, 900 program to correct the short
comings Since then enabling legislation
has been passed authorizing 100000
for new construction and the acquisition
of additional detecting equipment. Up to
now, however, the funds have not been
appropriated. Accordingly, despite the
contrary impression created by some un-
official reports, and although the Air Force
is close-mouthed on the subject, it seems
safe to assume that our aerial defense Is
still inadequate.
This is matter that calls for action
without delay. Although it appears un-
likely in the extreme that We. are going
to be attacked by bonbers In the nears
future-if ever-we are living in period
that makes it imperative for us to develop
the best possible self-protection. To that
end, nothing should be left undone now
for want of congressional appropriations.
oir,1u ic fon of
national security that the stronger we
make ourselves in the air-defensively as
well as offensively-the less chance there
will be of our suffering devastation from
the skies on our own home grounds.

Lost Mozort Relics

Some American CT unwittingly may
have in his possession the gold watch and
the gold ring presented to Mozart by the
Empress Maria Theresa. These precious
relics of the great composer disappeared
from safe hidden in salt mine near
Salzburg during the liberation period of
1s45. They may have been taken by a
soldier from the United States who even
now does not know what they are.
In the hope that worldwide publicity
will bring the lost articles to light, DR..
Carlton Smith, director of the National
Arts Foundation of New York, has issued
q general appeal to veterans. The watch
and the ring, he says, had been placed in
a strongbox which once had belonged on
ship, and the box had been placed in
the mine to avoid possible destruction in
the bombing of Austrian cities which then
was in progress.
Other Mozart items which have disap-
peared include the original manuscript of
''The Magic Flute" last seen in the Prus-
sian State Library in Berlin in association
with the Ninth Symphony" by Beethoven;
colored drawings for the costumes of the
characters in the opera; the composers
letters to his father and his wife; certain
silhouettes and number Of miscellaneous
papers. These examples of .Mozartiana
probably would be identified Immediately
by anybody with musical intelligence
enough to pick them up. If they still
exist, 1t is conceivable that they are IN
the hands of person who appreciates
them and therefore will guard them against
further harm and eventually send them
back.
The watch and the ring, however, might
not be connected with Mozart A veteran
could have them without knowing def

will be glad to return them, once he is

Mar of Nerves

# countless citizens are tense these days
as they eagerly read the newspapers or
listen to the radio, it is not because they
are panicky over the big explosion in
Russia. There is some evidence OF panic
in widely scattered places-Boston and
Saint Louis, to be specific-but it Is over
what happened to their pennant-contend-
ing ball teams here and in Pittsburgh. At
Griffith Stadium it was a guided-missile
barrage delivered by Ray Scarborough that
jolted the Red Sox out Of first place and
into a tie with the New York Yankees
for the American League championship,
while yesterday Pirate bombardment IN
Pittsburgh knocked the Cardinals out OF
the lead in the equally tight National
League race. With Brooklyn winning a
double-header from the Boston Braves, the
Cards found themselves half game behind
the Dodgers.
This is the kind of thing that keeps the
nerves of sports fans on edge and splasheS
baseball headlines across the sports pages
when football is vying for attention. The
fact that our lowly Senators are playing
a fateful role in the American League
decision adds to the local interest Ap-
parently Joe Kuhel's boys save their efforts
until the last few days of the season, when
they like to assume the role OF giant
killers. It was behind Scarborough, re-
member, that they knocked the Red Sox
out of last years race, and they looked
Wednesday night as If they were bent on
repeating. Ordinarily Joe Mccarthy would
be glad to get away from here after today's
final game with the Mats, but he cannot
go home. He has to 60 right into the camp
of the enemy for decisive two-game series
at Yankee Stadium tomorrow and Sunday.
No wonder Joe looked so downcast in that
dugout picture yesterday. Fortunately TOR
the SoX, the Yankees are badly crippled,
with even Joe Di Maggie ailing.
So there Is no telling what the outcome
will be-and that goes for both leagues.
1t is possible that, for the first time in
history, both pennant races will end in
ties. That would require Sudden death"

Chino Accuses Moscow

The complaint against Soviet Russia
fled in the General Assembly of the
United Nations by the Chinese Nationalist
government may be evaluated from three
angles-the legal, the equitable and the
practical.
In the first place, there can be no doubt
that Nationalist China is competent to
bring the complaint; because, despite its
precarious situation in China itself, its
Communist opponent has as yet no diplo-
matte status, whereas the Nationalist gov
ernment is still internationally recognized
and is u N. member in good standing
having just paid up its dues to forestall
any countermaneuver on that score.
The charges against Moscow are serious
While not as yet implemented by docu-
mentary proofs, which will be submitted
at the hearing, they accuse Soviet Russia
of threatening Chinese independence, en-
dangering the peace of the Far East and
violating the Charter of the United Nations.
Although it can be assumed that Moscow
and its satellites in the U. N. will strenu-
ously oppose laying the complaint before
the Assembly, 1t is almost certain that
China will be accorded the right to present
It's case. The allegations certainly fall
within the scope Of the Charter provisions
governing submission of charges, while
previous cases like that of Iran furnish
precedents to strengthen the validity of
Chinas demand for hearing. 1t thus
seems almost foregone conclusion that
the issue will be thoroughly aired before
the Assembly, the one uncertainty being
its place on the agenda of the current ses-
sion. That might have certain practical
bearing, because the situation in China
itself may alter radically within the near
future.
Aside from the legal force of the evi-
dence which China will disclose, there is
much in equity to bolster its complaint.
There can be little doubt that Moscow has
violated, in spirit If not in the letter, the
terms of the Sino- Soviet treaty OF friend
ship and alliance of August IA, 1s45.
especially in regard to Manchuria There
can also be no reasonable doubt that
Moscow has aided the Chinese Communists
in various ways, such as conniving at their
obtainment of Japanese arms and equip
ment in Manchuria after Japan's capt.
ulation. Just how specifically China can
legally establish Soviet aid to the Chinese

SenseIess Medical Feudinq

The threatened all-out feud between the
District of Columbia and Virginia over
the issue of medical practice reciprocity
is senseless and should be called OF before
it reaches more serious stage. The pubic
interest requires the fullest possible degree
of cooperation between health agencies
and practicing physicians OF all COM
munities in the Washington Metropolitan
Area The trend should be toward turther
coordination of the medical facilities OF
the area, rather than toward the raising
of barriers.
The dispute between the District and
Virginia over medical reciprocity has been
brought to head by an exchange OF
correspondence between District Health
Officer Rutland and the Virginia Board
of Medical Examiners in Richmond. Vir-
ginia long has had on its statute books
but has not enforced in the nearby coun-
ties-a law requiring out-of-State physl-
clans to pay fifty dollar fee and to meet
certain standards of competency before
they are permitted to practice in the State.
The District law, on the other hand, per-
nits the conditional issuance of border
line certificates" at only one dollar each
to physicians of Virginia and Maryland,
giving them full practice privileges in
Washington without further red tape.
The condition is that the two States must
grant similar privileges to District doctors.
Maryland has granted this reciprocity,
but the existence of the Virginia law has
been a constant threat to District physi-
clans. Virginia in the past has blinked
at technical violations and, reciprocally,
the District has continued to extend the
special borderline privileges to doctors in
Arlington, Fairfax Alexandria and other
nearby Virginia places.
Health Officer Rutland 'now says ne
has received from the Virginia Board OF
Medical Examiners definite opinion that
1t has no authority to enter into any reel
procity arrangement with the District. II
this ruling is enforced in the washington
area the chief sufferers will be Virginians
not only doctors across the river, but all
their patients who desire to use the many
and varied hospital and clinic facilities IN
Washington. Both the Arlington and
Alexandria Medical Societies are on record
in favor of reciprocity with the District,
and State Senator Fenwick plans to seek
amendment of the State law so as to
sanction full reciprocal privileges between
doctors of both jurisdictions. The law in
question certainly should be amended at
the next session of the General Assembly,
beginning in January. In the meantime,
State legal authorities would be well ad-
vised to review the examining boards
ruling, with view to continuing, if legally
possible, the loose reciprocity understand
ing which long has prevailed. 1t is hard
to understand why it suddenly has become
necessary to abandon an arrangement that
