On Second Thought

In an interview at Richmond, Va. few
days ago. w. Averel Hartman, assistant to the
President and specialist in foreign AFFAIRS re-
fused to interpret last Tuesdays elections. He
added, however, that whatever Interpretation
might be made the Nations bipartisan foreign
policy should continue "All of us" he said "have
attempted to maintain bipartisan foreign
policy. That's been our objective There's no
reason why it can't be maintained"
This must have come as something of a sec
ond thought to Mr.. Hartman. For while every
sensible person will hope that the bipartisan
foreign policy can survive the Democratic re-
verses, the fact remains that Mr.. Hartman,
some three weeks prior to the election, did
about as much as one man could do to knock
bipartisanship on the head.
On that occasion Mr.. Hartman went down
to Texas to address the convention of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor. 1t would have been
a good opportunity to appeal for support of
bipartisan foreign policy. But Mr.. Hartman
preferred to appeal for the defeat Of Mr.. Taft.
1t was singularly inappropriate thing for
him to have done. The AFL was up to its neck
in bitter political fight with Senator Taft in
Ohio. AS co-author of the labor act which
bears his name, he was the top man on the AFL
purge list and the AFL leaders were out to get
his political scalp at all costs. Mr.. Hartman,
as a symbol Of bipartisanship in foreign policy,
most emphatically should have remained aloof
from such fight. But he chose to Jump right
in the middle of it, telling the AFL, for what
ever damage it might do in Ohio, that Senator
Taft had been ignorantly furthering the designs
of the Kremlin.
The expectation, at least the AFL expecta-
ton, then was that Senator Taft would be
beaten. But the expected didn't happen. Sem
ator Taft won a stunning victory, and he will
return to the Senate stronger and more inf1uen-
tial than ever before. Mr. Hartman will have
little reason to blame the Senator If he should
prove strangely Indifferent to appeals for BIZ
partisanship. For If that happens, Mr. Harri-
man should blame himself above all others.

from Uncle Sam patent for a flying
locomotive which will draw in free air
a vestibule train of aerial trailers loaded
with men and freight. The count has
evidently held this invention in store,
hoping to soon spring it as another sur
prise upon the scientific world and
doubtless has not dreamed that Ameri-
can letters patent can be pried into by
inquisitive newspapermen. :. Now,
this is how the successful airship in
ventor promises to build his vestibule
train of flying cars: The details are set
forth in his own specification, now filed
in the Patent Office. The locomotive
and trailers are all to be bologna
sausage shaped and similar in general
appearance to the Zeppelin airship now
being tested The framework or skele-
ton of each is to be made of hollow
tubes, wire rope, wire gauze and net
ting, over which is to be stretched an
outer shell of silk or similar material
The cylinder of each vehicle thus
formed will be stiffened by partition
walls, affording compartments or cham

be introduced. These bags. when put
into their respective chambers, will be
collapsed like SO many footballs out of

They are to be filled with gas after being

Another Step Against War

BY vote of 81 to 5-the nay-savers being
the members of the Soviet bloc-the Political
and Securitv Committee of the General Assem-
bly, has adopted Yu~oslav resolution designed to
strengthen the anti-aeeression machinery of
the United Nations. Although not earth-shak-
ing in its Importance, the resolution-which un-
doubtedly will be overwhelmingly approved by
the Assembly as whole-at least has the virtue
of being another step aimed at preventing the
outbreak of large-scale war.
Chief of the resolutions provisions are the
following: (1) That in the event of war any,
where, the warning states within "a hours after
the start of hostities, will announce their readi-
ness-if the enemy side will do the same-to
cease fire and withdraw troops on the basis Of
terms or conditions laid down by the United
Nations; (2> that they will ask the Security
Council or the General Assembly to disoatch to
the trouble area the nevlv created 14-nation
Peace Observation Commission; and 81 that
their WILLINGNESS to take these and similar actions
will be reckoned with when the U. N. determines
which party is responsible for starting a con-
hict or unleashing aggression
The resolution-which would not impair the
right of collective defense or interfere with
U. N. measures of the sort now being carried out
In Korea-obviously cannot of itself prevent
wars But it is a worthwhile addition to the
peace-preserving program that the General AS
sembly has been trying to fortify at its current
session. Under that program, the Assembly has
bestowed additional powers on itself to cope with
aggression whenever the veto prevents the
Security Council from taking action. The new
proposal, by committing countries in advance
to kind of truce-calling procedure would make
it less difficult for the United Nations to keep
armed conflicts from spreading.
Certainly, if every nation in the world would
abide by the provisions of the Yugoslav reso-
lution the peace outlook would grow perceptiby
less dark. For those provisions applied in con-
junction with the U. MS facilities for settling
disputes, could do much, even after hostilities
start to speed up the end Of little wars and keep
them from exploding into big ones. The whole

A Great World Citizen
By Bruce Borton

Ever since World War II began people
have been bombarded with promises.
Every national leader has held out high
hopes: few delivered. The shining ex-
ceptions are Gandhi and Nehru They
said to their people: 1--WE will give you
independence and free you from the
British" They did just that-and with
out firing a shot. Our internationalists
criticize Nehru because he insists on
making up his own mind instead Of let
ting US or the Russians make 1t up for
him. But for my money he is very big
fellow indeed. I base this Judgment on
no personal acquaintance, but, first of
all, on book called "Glimpses of World
History" which he wrote in the form Of
letter to his daughter. In size and con-
tent it compared with Outline Of
History" by H. G. Wells. But this Is the
amazing thing-Nehru wrote his book
during two-year stretch in prison: He
wrote it with no research help, no Ii
brary: indeed. with not one single book
of reference. Yet scholars have found in
it no essential error of fact.
Where among statesmen Is there any
man whose brain could match that
achievement?
Nehru's land and his people are poor:
he has no army. no money. Yet there
is in him q spiritual power so ardent
and compelling that the whole world
feels 1t, and every member of the U. N.
seeks to have him as friend. This
mighty power Of the spirit is my second
and principal reason for holding him
great. Speaking recently Of India's po-
sition in the world, he said: "We do not
think 1t is inevitable for world conflict
- @1lr I>o%,x,
world and the Communist world.
Given period of peace, the inner weak
nesses Of any system will show them
selves. :" Because he knows world
history he knows that despotism carries
always the seeds of its own destruction.
He knows that the farther Stain spreads
out, the more enemies he raises up. He
knows that Alexander. Caesar and every
other aggressor were hardly cold in their
graves before battles broke out among
to fall apart.
= Nehru said also: india does not claim
infallibility of judgment nor does she
recognize such infallibility and monopoly
of rectitude in any other country"
Did it ever occur to you how President
Truman's speeches and Secretary Ache
sons would sound in your ears, If you
were Russian or a Chinese? Don't
they sound sometimes as If we do think
that we have "infallibility of judgment"
and. monopoly of rectitude"?
Shouldn't we pay more attention to
this world figure who, sneered at as an
impractical idealist, has brought to his
people more benefits at less cost than
any Of the practical statesmen, or all
OF them Jumped together? With all OF
their billions and all of their guns

The fact that the Chinese Red troops

is not puzzling. 1t means only one thing:
The Chinese Reds are waiting till the
Yalu River freezes in few weeks and a
bitter winter sets in. They hope to lull
the U. N. now and lure the Americans
into trap of winter battling, when they
can cross the Yalu at will and annihilate
the Americans with winter tactics.
The American Government is foolish
and the U. N. sabotaged if they don't
order an immediate onslaught on the
Reds and crossing of the Manchurian
border, even atom bombing Chinese Red
cities.

and clever procedure, without regard
for others, is to collect whatever it is
that the world owes them. This was his
quiet comment: "You will not find any
of the earth's rare spirits haggling over
their claims against the world, or scold-
ing like flshwife at the worlds default
of payment. What you do find is
shining admission of the worlds in
defeasible claim upon them and a
splendid readiness to meet in terms of
courage and sacrificial industry the
recurring payments on that debt"
People who are not decent enough to
make out their lou for benefits they
can never pay for even take America
for granted-never even taking the
trouble to vote.
Required reading for all Americans
ought to be the recent story of skiing
athlete who fled from his own country
to escape the chains of Soviet tyranny.
At last, after four years wandering as
displaced person, he reached America.
Here, as he put it, he found not only
four freedoms, but more than 400. The
climax of this thrilling narrative comes
when, his face drenched with grateful
tears after filing his application for
American citizenship, he knelt in the
nearby old Congregational church to
say, THANK you, God, for America"
and that henceforth he was to have
the inestirlable boon of himself being
an American. In these troubled and
tragic days that story would be the
most effective summons to thanksgiving
that Americans could read, as patriotism
pure and undefiled breathes the prayer:
"Now God be thanked, who hath
matched us with his hour"
Let veritable passion of praise
send our low, unworthy moods flying
until we feel, as did Charles Kingsley,
when he wrote to friend: Must we
not thank and thank and thank for
ever, and toll and toll for ever, for
Him" who has trusted us with the gift
Of life which is,
"The handkerchief of the Lord,
A scented gift and remembrancer
designedly drop't,
Bearing the owners name some
way in the corners,
That we may see and remark and
say: Whose?"

Running true to form, Dean Acheson

In view of the healthy party division

Recital DjscIoses Noen1i Souzo
OF Argentina as Promising Singer

Iadina" by Joaquin Min of Cuba,
set a task for the accompanist,
Sol Sax, in its rhythmic difficult
ties which he was more than equal
to. Throughout, he gave the young
artist excellent support, establish
ing the style and answering her
intentions with sensitivity.
The after intermission group
consisted of the ariaS, 20 mio
Fernando" from Donizetti's La
Favorita," LES Larmes" from
Massenet's "Werther," "Haba-
nera" from Bizet's Carmen, ""Air
de Lila" from Debussy's 'L'Enfant
Prologue" and Mon occur s'ouvre
a ia voix" from Saint-Saens'
Samson ct Delilah." BY this time,
Miss Souza could sing with great
er abandon and her voice gained
in power and clarity. While the
scope of her talent could be ap-
preciated further in the broader
line of the operate excerpts, she
has not quite mastered the neces-
sary sweep or the authority to
distinguish her presentation of
them above her singing of the
songs. What was gratifyingly
present at all times was her sin
cerity, musical feeling and un-
affectedness. She was warmly ap-
plauded by a good sized audience.

By Alice Eversmon

A young singer of definite
promise was heard in the Pan
American Union last night in the
first recital given there this sea-
son. Noemi Souza, Argentine
mezzo- soprano, was presented un-
der the sponsorship of the Argen-
tine Ambassador. Senor DR.. Jero-
nimo Remorino. Miss Souza
received the approval of a board
of judges in her own country who
selected her, four years ago, to be
trained in the school of the Colon
Opera House, subsequently to be
engaged as a member of the COM
pany. Her visit here follows the
completion of her second season
with the Colon Opera.
The foundation of the belief
that she may go far in her career
lies in the fresh. healthy quality
of her voice and the easy manner
in which she uses it. The range
is not large, and she has yet to
learn how to inject a greater
variety OF color into it, but it has
both power and f1eXibility. Fur
thermore, her training evidently
has been thorough in the lyric
field Of classical song so that the
character of her musicianship is
established in the right way. Actu-
ally, the two groups of songs gave
more evidence of polish than did
the five arias with which the pro-
gram closed.
Her voice has a full-throated
timbre close to a contralto quail
ity. It lends itself well to such
numbers as Chic mai vi possa"
from Handeps "Siroe," Caldara's
"Selvi amiche" and Pergolesi's
"Ogni pena piu spietata," which
were among the group of classical
selections. It blossomed out still
more in the seven songs by Latin
American composers introduced
by de Falla'S charming Eel pano
moruno." Among these the lovely
"O'Kihimba" by Ernani Braga of
Brazil and "Coplas puntanas" by
Ana Carrique of Argentina, stood
out. The latter, with it's marked
change of moods, required par
ticular finesse and the former,
creation of atmosphere. both of
which were sensed with innate
sympathy by Miss SouZa. Gran
