The Korean crisis, which finds
the real contestants, the United
States and Russia, slugging toe
to toe in all-out diplomatic war
in the United Nations, insures
that the coming General Assembly
will be one Of the most fateful
gatherings in history. An AS
sembly appointment therefore is
an unusual privilege and mark OF
confidence.
Focal Issue Of Campaign.
Furthermore. Korea is the focal
issue Of the coming campaign and
the Republicans are building
around 1t q massive effort to
wrench control Of Congress away
from President Truman. Viewed
in this light, the best choice of q
Republican Senator was q real
levy on the conscience of the
President, Chairman Connally Of
the Senate Foreign Relations
COMMITTEES and the State De-
partment.
They resolved the problem with
. handsome salute to the bipar-
tisan foreign policy. Senator
Lodge is able and articulate; he
is Senator Vandenberg's protege
and choice Of successor to Repub-
lican foreign policy leadership.
But Senator Lodge twice recently
has provoked the Democrats to
spasms Of rage by actions in the
foreign policy field they felt were
motivated solely by politics.
One was his refusal to 60 along
with the Tydings subcommittee s
destruction Of the Mccarthy
charges. Instead Senator Lodge
issued q one-man. plague on

lent q cover of responsibility to
Republican adoption Of McCar-
thy's cause. The other was last

foreign policy in which Senator
Lodge and his COP colleagues on
Foreign Relations claimed all that
was good for bipartisanship and
put OF all that was bad on the
administration alone. {.

To jealous internationalists,
these may seem petty points. they

Southerner rs Spokesman.
The Sparkman appointment is
equally interesting since it places
a Southerper as spokesman for
the whole Nation In an interna-
tional arena where the color issue
is being exploited by the Russians
for all it is worth. The Russian
propaganda is beamed not at
America but at the area where
Americans are dying for q free

Senator Sparkman is an inter-

remember one almost ludi-
crous example Of the Showdown,
which the workers are using
effectively. AS I walked through
one of the repair Jobs noticed
a mechanic checking the bearings
on a motor. This is about a one
minute job. Three hours later
I passed the same spot and the
mechanic was still industriously
examining the bearings. I looked
at him and laughed and he
laughed, too, in appreciation of
our private joke.
The fact that the mechanic
could spend three hours on a one
minute job without detection by
his Communist bosses is another
reason why the new government
is stumbling in its first year.
Most of the Communists in the
top-level jobs just don't know
what they're about. The reason
is simple. Most of the best posi-
tons were handed out as rewards
to veteran party members who
had been following the campaign
for as long as Is years.

As Told TO Don Bronninq

North American Newspaper Alliance.
MIAMI, May 16.-We must
make no mistake about the COM
munism of Mao TZe-tung. 1t is
communism spelled with a cap
ital C and its goal is the same as
the unwavering aim of the men ir
Moscow-world revolution.
Many who were intimately &C.
quainted with the shocking, i'm
moral corruption of Chang Kali
shek's regime were inclined to view
Communist China as the lesser OF
two evils.
Knowing how desperately the
Chinese needed a new deal. many
Americans in China made the
fatal error of condoning a Com
munist government because ii
promised an end to the bleeding Of
the Chinese people. Yet the Peo-
pies Party is just one more dis
illusionment for the long suffering
Chinese workman. He has been
sold down the Yangtze again with

regime.
Union Membership Rises.
In Nationalist China some 80
per cent of the workers-mostly
in mechanical trades-belonged to
unions. When I left Shanghai in
January the figure had been in
creased to 80 per cent. But the
high-sounding Communist eulogy
of the working man echoed hol-
lowly in the workers empty stom-
ach. He is worse off than before.
Never better than racketeers,
Chinese union leaders had long
bled the laborer for a stiff per-
centage of his salary. It was either
that, or no job.
With the coming of commu-
nism, the union connivers lost no
time in scrambling for official
posts in the new government. They
applauded the Communist auster-
ity program and smilingly stood by
while the workingman's salary was
cut not once or twice, but to a
fifth of his former income-and
