the record of the gentleman from
Ohio in the years just previous to
World War II. If his is a record
to be proud OF, then I am six feet,

have yearly income of a

loved by Rita Hayworth, Prin-
cess Margaret, Lana Turner, and
Betty Hutton.

today just by the letters I received
concerning a recent column I
wrote about that Senator, Rob-
ert Taft. I simply wrote that
I didn't like Mr.. Taft. There must
be millions Of other Americans
who don't like. him, otherwise he
would long ago have had the Re-
publican nomination for Presi-
dent. But has everyone who ex-
pressed his dislike of Mr.. Taft got
ten the letters I have? My guess
is no. although I don't know for
sure.
Why is 1t that the American
people pick on columnists? After
all. we are just a group Of men
trying to make living. The
Muse doesn't drive me to the type
writer half as often as do land
lords, grocery bills, girdles for the
little woman, and an occasional
steak for the two of us. Why
single, out columnists to get their

tiers SO much If they came direct

them without any eyes but my own
seeing them. But the writer's Of
these letters usually send them to
the editors of the papers who
know my straitened circumstances
and are gracious enough to buy
my column to help me out.
Letter to The Star.
I would like to consider. If you
will grant me the time, a letter
that Arthur l.. Quinn, counsellor
at law. 1925 K street NV. Wash
ington 6, D. c., wrote to- the editor
of The Washington Evening Star.
It starts this way: "Sir:: Why

ticularly to his thing which clut-
tered up the overseas mails or wire

candidates and let the strong take
care of themselves.
The outstanding feature Of con-
fidential reports to the Republi-
cans is that in the midst of q
generally optimistic outlook. they
are threatened with defeats where
it will hurt them most.
Two Of their Senate big three
are in trouble-Senator Taft and
Senator Millikin of Colorado,
chairman of the Republican con-
ference. They are told that in
the Presidents home State, Sena-
tor Donnell will have difficulty
keeping his seat. It is little con-
ISOLATION that the Democratic can

Taft Reports Gloomy.
Not even word that Gov.
Dewey's vigorous campaign for
reelection may replace Senator
Lehman with Joe r. Hanley COM
pensates for the gloomy Taft re-
ports. The propaganda effect
would be less but within the party,
the soothing and ceinenting quail
tiles Of Senator Millikin would be
missed almost as much as Senator
Taft's aggressive leadership.
One other Republican incurn-

Senator Tobey of New Hampshire
was re-nominated by 1.100 votes
over Wesley Powell. formerly adj
ministrative assistant to Mr..
Tobey's colleague and political

'Fhis Changing World
Macarthur Pats Back of CIA
For Preparation of Inchon Push

When it appeared that we had
been taken by surprise by the
North Korean attack on June IS
there was an uproar in Congress
In responsible administration Cir
cles there began an Immediate
hunt for a scapegoat. There We're
many hints that Gen. MacAr-
thurs headquarters in Tokyo had
muffed the ball. But it was not
possible to make Gen. Macarthur
himself q scapegoat at that time
and he would not let anybody on
his staff pay for the broken pots.
Hence. a minor scapegoat had to
be found in Washington.
Defense Secretary johnson and
Secretary of State Acheson ap-
peared before the Senate Appro-
priations Committee, where they
were taken severely to task for
their lack Of foresight. Both men
put the blame squarely on Gen.
trail Intelligence, which had com
pletely fallen down on the job. .
When they were asked to be more
specific they replied, you gen.
tlemen had better ask Admiral
Hillenkoetter for details"
Admiral Hillenkoetter was sent
for. The Senators had decided 70
ask the President for his scalp
after they had given him a chance
to answer the charges of the two
secretaries. He talked little, but
submitted to his inquisitors the
full file Of his reports and ap-
praisals of the Korean situation
for a period of nearly II months.
Full Information Given.
The documents showed con-
clusively that the State and De-
Tense Department chiefs had been
fully informed since last Febru-
ary that the North Koreans had
gathered such a force in the vi
cinity Of the 38th parallel that
they were capable Of striking at
any time.
Central Intelligence had not
given the day and hour when
the attack would start, for that
was humanity impossible. But the
full strength of the aggressor.
with details as to the number of
troops and tanks. all had been
provided to State and Defense
Secretaries and to the Joint
Chiefs Of Staff. They also had
been. sent to Tokyo. where Gen.
Willoughby, Gen. Macarthur
chief OF intelligence. confirmed
the information from his own
sources.
Nevertheless, the wide publicity
which accompanied the stories
that Central Intelligence had
failed badly called for a scape-
goat. Admiral Hillenkoetter's re-
quests, repeated since last spring,
to return to sea duty were grant,
ed as soon as Gen. Smith could
be persuaded to succeed him.
The new director Of the CIA
knows that he has inherited as
efficient and competent an or
ganization as 1t was possible to
create in less than five years.

splendid work all the time through
its various subsidiary agencies In

economic, food and agriculture,
education, health, and the like.
Korea Changed ALI That.
Korea changed all that, pri-
marily and originally because the
u. N. was recognized suddenly by
our Government as the only means
Of salvation: but basically because
our Government finally realized
that the people Of the world. who
had more faith all along in the
U. N. than the diplomats, would
back the U. N. up. It was, indeed
a victory for people everywhere
Eventually they can move their

Supported by such q showing
our State Department has moved
boldly forward in the u. N. Assem-
bly, with the proposals to make that
an instrument, Of itself, to check
aggression in place of the veto
hobbled U. N. Security Council. And
now that the collapse of the North
Korean armies has confronted Us
with the immediate problem Of re-
adjustment. we have taken the
lead in turning over to the U. N
the task of unifying that country
politically and restoring it eco
nomically.
This will test the u. NJ, too. Like
wise it puts up to us very delicate
political problems as a member OF
U. N. For we are on test also be-
fore the peoples of the Orient with
whom the Russians have been sc
active. AS an example of the sort

done harm to. I wonder If
Brother Quinn has always been
an exemplary citizen? Has he al
ways volunteered to do the barbe-
cuing when the wind was from
the wrong direction? Is he known
to his intimates as the Mr.. Quinn
who turns down the white meat
when he has first whack at the
platter of chicken? I hazard a
guess that he isn't all that per-
feet.
From West Virginia.
Just when showed some signs
of recovering from Mr.. Quinn's
sweet note, I opened a letter from
Joe Bartlett, whose residence is at
Lost Creek 2. West Virginia. Mr.
Bartlett had this to say to me:
"For gosh sakes, man, stick to a
subject you know something
about. You owe Bob Taft an
apology. I suggest you eat q
little crow. 1t doesn't taste so bad
and you will be q better man
for it"
Why should man stick to a
subject he knows something
about? I can imagine nothing
duller. MIR. Bartlett doesn't know
1t, but I am just about finished
writing, a book on balloon ascen-
sion, a subject Of which I am en-
tirely ignorant. AS for eating crow,
don't aim to. He says it doesn't
taste SO bad, but the three or four
regular crow eaters I know have
very few kind words for the dish.

m easura lie. Constantine Brown.
The operation could not have beer
successful without its assistance.
He cabled his unsolicited testi-
monial because of the accuracy
and speed with which the agents
of CIA accomplished a difficult
task for him.
Early In August the top intel
ligence service received a priority
cable from Gen. Macarthur
headquarters asking for an imme-
diate study of the positions,
strength and fighting capabilities
of the North Koreans In the In
chon area and adjacent island
All available agents were rushed
Immediately to the job. They COM
pleted the work as rapidly as cir
cumStances permitted and Tokyo
headquarters was presented with
a comprehensive report, pinpoint-
ing the enemy positions and giving
information about Red strength
down to company level.
Information Fully Accurate.
When the landing occurred the
information provided was found
to be fully accurate by the conf
manders of the first units ashore.
Losses were kept at a minimum
because the planes and warships
were able, on the basis of the in
formation from CIA, to concen-
trate their bombardments on To-
cations indicated in these reports.
1t was the best intelligenc. job,
Gen. Macarthur said later, he had
ever seen in his long military
career.
It is with this feeling of a job
well done that Rear Admiral Ros-
coe Hillenkoetter today. relin-
quishes his position to his success
sor. Gen. Walter Bedell Smith.
Although the CIA by law is re-
sponsible directly to the President,
it has on several occasions been
made a screen to conceal the er-
rors of some members OF the Presi-
dents cabinet. Sometimes "calcu-
lated leaks" to selected newspaper
men brought unfounded criticism.
Other times the organization and
it's chief were severely criticized in
the secrecy Of congressional execu-
tive sessions.

The Brutal Truth

party cannot afford the luxury of
the Tobey- Bridges feud this year
since 1t conceivably could elect the
Democratic candidate. If the New
Hampshire Democrat should win
and If the Senate ends up In al
most a dead heat 50 that his vote
helps the Democrats to organize
the Senate, Mr.. Bridges will get all
COP unpopularity prizes by ac-
clamation. 1t is already asserted
here that the outside money which
Mr.. Powell got for his primary
against the liberal Senator Tobey
will not be available to him in the
election.
About their remaining incum-
bents. Republicans say they are
happy-Senators Aiken. Vermont: !:
Hickenlooper, Iowa; Capehart. In
diana; Morse. Oregon; Dworshak,
Idaho; Wiley, Wisconsin: Young,
North Dakota. They also expect
Governor Carlson of Kansas and
Representative Case of South Da-
kota to slide easily into two seats
already Republican.
Pennsylvania, where Governor
Duff is running against Demo-
cratic Whip Myers. heads the
States where Republicans are told
they will take Democratic seats.
They are optimistic also Of gains
in Illinois. New York, Connecti-
cut, Utah. Idaho and California,
possibly In Oklahoma and Wash
ington.
But they do hope Mr.. Republi-
can starts doing better fast. And
when they say they cannot imagine
anyone voting for Jumping Joe
Ferguson as against Senator Taft
they are being entirely honest.
