The goldfish bowl approach

could expect. under a Syming-
ton regime, to be frank with
their banker. the taxpayer.
Senator Douglas expects to
insist that RFC stop bailing out
the banks which have been
transferring their private losses
thus to the taxpayer. This has
been a fruitful source of pres
sure on members of Congress;
many Of them would welcome
a hard and fast declaration Of
policy against it.
It is presently unpopular here
to discuss the social aims of any
program or agency or even to
admit that they have any. Yet
these are major uses of RFC.
In this respect conservatives who
fight it on the ground the banks
alone can do the lending Job
and that monopolies are not a
threat are being more honest
than RFC supporters.
The present times also assign
a defense role to such a Gov
ernment lending agency. In the
present climate it makes the
most palatable argument for

If the general, however. takes

to confound the current con-

Constantine Brown:

In recent years whenever the
administration has been chal-
lenged for dispensing indis-
criminately billions Of dollars
to our Western Allies and for
letting itself be led. instead OF
leading, in international affairs.
there has been a hue and cry
that the critics were endanger-
ing the unity Of the free ma
tions. Yet that unity appears
to be one-sided.
The war in Korea, where we
have suffered in the neighbor-
hood Of 10000 casualties, has
placed the administration in an
unpleasant position. After the
Chinese Communists entered the
confiagration that unity" be-
came obviously shaky.
Great Britain, the European
pivot Of the North Atlantic
Treaty Organization, has been
opposed to any retaliation
against the aggressors. It took a
good bit of cajoling by our dip
lomats to induce the British
government to vote to brand the
Chinese Communists aggressors.
The British conse ented to
brand the Chinese Reds only
after they had been positively
assured that such a declaration
would not be followed by either
diplomatic or economic sane
tions. Great Britain continued
It's unilateral recognition of the
Communist regime in China
and also continued to do "busi-
ness as usual" with the Peiping
government. This business in
cludes the shipping of vital ma
terialS to the nation which is

war on United Nations forces
in Korea.

Lowell MeHett::

This week, the tumult and the
shouting. This week, the hero's
return and the admiring Ma
tion's welcome. Next week and
for many weeks to come, the
sober business Of deciding or
trying to decide where we go
from here. That. a matter of
gravest Importance, may depend
to considerable extent on the
hero himself. on his willingness
to subordinate to the country's
best interest his natural desire
for personal vindication.
AS the week began his willing
ness in this respect appeared
open to some doubt. The chair
man of the Senate Armed Serv-
ices Committee had wired Gen.
Macarthur an Invitation" to
} appear before the committee to
testify and be questioned con-
corning the military situation in
the Far East. Hearings on the
subject had already been sched-
uled, with Secretary of Defense
Marshall as the first witness.
The general in reply had in
formed Chairman Russell that
resolutions were pending in Con-
gress inviting him to address a
joint meeting of the House and
Senate and until action had
been taken on those resolutions
he would deem it inappropri-
ate" to make any other plans.
Chairman Russell, of course,
was fully aware of the reso-
lutions offered by the Republi-
can leaders of the two houses

miles away from hoinea mis-
sion of civil as well as military
management Of an occupied
country.
Mr.. Truman could have sent
for Gen. Macarthur and could
have threshed out the differ
ences. II they could not have
been resolved, Mr.. Truman could
have given Gen. Macarthur the
choice of retiring or OF being
relieved forthwith.
A false issue is now being
trumped up. It is an argument
being advanced by the Presi-
dent that Gen. Macarthur
wants to bring on q large-scale
war and that MFR. Truman wants
peace. Nothing could be more
illustrative of the narrownesS
of vision that prevails in WASH
ington today. For Gen. Mac
Arthur is sincerely convinced
that the proposals he has
championed mean peace. Many
&obServers-not in the military
establishment--believ an ap-
peasement policy by the Presi-
dent and the State Department
will bring on a third world war
with all its horrible conse-
0llenceS.
Gen. Macarthur has been re-
ported as opposing peace-at-
any-price. Actually he has not
been doing any more than ask
ing for a vigorous prosecution
of a war in which 10000 casu-
alties already have been suf-
fered by the United States
more casualties in nine months
than in the first full year Of
World War II for this country.
The effort to misrepresent
Gen. MacArthur's position has
begun. All the engines Of pub
licity Of the administration
have been started. The Presi-
dents gibe at Gen. Macarthur
at the political dinner Saturday
night was the beginning. Al
ready the Democrats are getting
ready to turn on the smears.
These are sad days for America.

Unity Among Allies One-Sided
Confidence Of Congress in Acheson at Low Et
As British Call for Compromise in Korea

Moreover, the British govern
ment, which judging by its slim
majority represents only a
segment Of the British people,
insists even today that we settle
the unfortunate Korean af-
fair" with a compromise which
is, in fact, an abject surrender
to the aggressor.
The British are urging us to
accept a formula whereby we.
in exchange for cessation of
hostilities, would assure the
Peiping government of full par
ticipation in the writing of the
peace treaty with Japan and
also assure them thatsFormosa,
the only remaining rallying
point against the domination
Of the Chinese people by the
Communists. be surrendered to
Stains puppets,
The British government,
which has a widespread infor-
nation network in the United
States should know that the
American people are opposed to
any surrender. regardless OF how
tough the fight ahead may be.
It knows from its own military
men the strategic importance
Of the Far East for the global
security Of all free nations.
It is certain that the British
diplomatic observers in this
country must have reported to
the new Foreign Secretary. Her.
bert Morrison, that the Ameri-
can people and their representa-
tives in Congress are being irked
increasingly by the attitude Of
non-co-operation which the
British government is. showing
in the Far East Yet London
continues, in it's determination
to appease the one enemy which
spearheads the Kremlin's ag-
gression.
Evening star., 1951-04-17

The outbursts Of Joy which
occurred in London on the news
that Gen. Macarthur had been
fired by President Truman were
almost indecent. This official
expression of delight lent itself
to strengthen previous rlmors
that His Majesty's government
had used its great influence with
the State Department to bring
about such a decision.
While the executive branch Of
the Government may consider
these outward incidents lightly
even as strengthening our ties
with the United Kingdom
there is increasingly bitter re-
sentiment in Congress. This
resentment is not confined to
the members Of the opposition
alone.
It is in this light that the
move in the Senate and House
for a thorough re-examination
of our foreign policies-which
involve a vast outlay of tax
payers money-must be re-
garded today. Whatever argu-
ments Secretary Of State Ache
son may put forth in favor Of
such expenditure will be of little
avail. It is an unfortunate but
undeniable fact that the COM
fidence of Congress in the Sec
retary of State has reached such
a low ebb that his pleas In favor
of the program to be presented
SOON to Congress will initiate
against rather than for it.
The epithet which the French
have applied for centuries to
their neighbor across the Chan
nel-"perfidious Albion"-is be-
ing repeated in Congress today.
So is the famous statement Of
Britain's statesman, the Mar
quis Of Salisbury. that Britain
knows no friends. no enemies
but only interests"
