Senate Votes to Save Greek Girl
From Tilted Bride Deportation

The Senate yesterday came to
the aid of young Greek i'm
migrant, who faces deportation
because the man she came here to
marry has married some one else.
A bill to grant her permanent
United States residence was passed
and sent to the House, on the
recommendation of the Senate
Judiciary Committee.
Facing deportation because she
did not fulfill one of the condi-
tions of her temporary admission
to this country is Stella Jean
Stathopoulou. She lives in WASH
ington with a sister, Mrs. Marie
Chaconas. She also has a brother,
George Stevens, who operates
restaurant here.
Her betrothal to George Cha
conaS, an American veteran of
World War II, was arranged by
correspondence while she still was
in Greece. They were introduced
by letter by Stella's sister, who had
married MIR. Chaconas' uncle.
Miss Stathopoulou, in plea to

Good Schools Win in Arlington

Arlingtons overwhelming approval of a

OF a salutary change of public attitude in the
county since the defeat of $75 million bond
issue last November 1t is proof that a majority
of Arlington's citizens now are convinced that
their elected School Board will spend the school
funds carefully and wisely, that there will be
no more "frills" and nonessential extras of the
type that stirred up so much controversy last
fall In that respect the defeat OF the earlier

Unsatisfactory Compromise

The trouble with the State Departments
voluntary" integration Of its civil service EN-
ployeS and the Foreign Service is that it will
not remedy the unsatisfactory conditions crit-
cized by the Hoover Commission and by a SUBJ
sequent State Department advisory board. The
commission COT which, incidentally, Secretary
Acheson was member) complained that the
State Department has two distinct personnel
systems, one of them, the Foreign Service re-
sembling an Independent agency of the Govern
ment The Foreign Service as a whole, the
commission said, holds itself too aloof from the
American domestic scene The civil service staff,
on the other hand, has little opportunity to come
into close contact with conditions abroad.
merger of the two branches of the department
was proposed with civil service employees being
made subject to duty overseas as well as in this
country.
After long study of the commissions report
and of the similar suggestions of three-man
committee consisting of James H. Rowe, jr,
Chairman Robert Ramspeck of the Civil Service
Commission and William E. De Courcy, a Foreign
Service officer, Secretary Acheson has decided
against a mandatory consolidation of the two
branches. Instead, he has proposed that civil
service employees be allowed to volunteer for the
Foreign Service. But department officials
frankly admit that only few employees are likely
to volunteer. Many civil service workers are
reluctant to serve abroad This reluctance plus
the traditional tendency of the Foreign Service
to regard itself as select group and to resent
intrusion of outsiders" led Mr. Acheson to adopt
the compromise plan
The Hoover Commission recognized the diff
fculties in merging the two services and sought
to meet them with plan for gradual institution
of the merger. The commission said: Depart
mental personnel who are unwilling to enter
the new (consolidated) service but who are quail
fed for their present duties might be continued
in their present posts some special limited
service basis be given opportunities elsewhere
in the Government" The demand for new en-
ployes being what it is, such employees would
have no trouble in finding jobs in other agencies
The commission said that while the merger
should be mandatory, it should be carried out
gradually over a short period OF years
If the commissions plan were adopted, the
impact on personnel would have been reduced
to minimum. In the course of time the de-
partmentS double-barreled personnel system
would have become one large Foreign Affairs
Service" qualified to do its work more efficiently
! at home or abroad without conflict or over
. tapping of personnel policies and procedures.
The arguments for such reform contained in
the Hoover report and in the report of the
departments advisory committee pre- more per-
suasive than the reasons given by Mr.. Acheson
for backing away from it.

No End in Sight

General of the Army Omar Bradley has
aligned himself unequivocally with the President
in the dispute over the conduct of the Korean
war. In his Chicago speech, the chairman of
the Joint Chiefs of Staff opposed any action by
us that would broaden the conflict, and said
that proposals for an ultimatum to force a show
down with the Communists are "militariy
infeaSible"
Such counsel, coming from a man of General
Bradleys military stature, is entitled to respect
In his address tomorrow, General Macarthur
may present persuasive arguments in support Of
his contrary views. But his case will have to be
strong if it is to overcome the impact of General
Bradley's appraisal of the military factors
involved
When one passes beyond the strictly military
aspects, however, there is not much in the
Bradley address to inspire confidence.
"Our policy" he says ''is to avoid war and
to promote peace" Presumably we are also
against sin. Can this be. dignihed by Gazing
it policy?
We are in a war, and there is no peace. Is
there prospect of ending the war in Korea on
acceptable terms? General Bradley says there is
no early end in sight, and he seems to agree that
we may be entering upon phase Of indefinite
stalemate.
Assuming that this is correct, that we can and
Will continue to hold substantially the positions
we now occupy in Korea, Is that going to induce
the Chinese and Russian Communists to come
to terms? Will the prospect of stalemate, a
stalemate that ties up and immobilizes q very
important segment of our armed forces, cause the
Communists to give up their aggressive designs
and change them into people with whom we can
live in peace?
General Bradley seems to think so, or at least
to hope So Certanly ii ia difficult to find any,
thing else in his speech upon which rational
hope for peace can be based. In all candor, we
should ask ourselves whether this is not the
sheerest wishful thinking. Is this constant official
emphasis on the hope for peace binding all of
us to more reasonable assumption-the assunp-
tion that our Communist enemies mean exactly
what they say and that there will be no peace
with them unless and until they have been
militarily defeated? This is not pleasant pros
pect. No official likes to talk about it.. But it
may very well be the truth.

Yictimizinq Federal Job Seekers

bill which has passed the Senate and
received the approval of the House Judiciary
Committee would put an end to an unconscion-
able practice by certain employment agencies
For a number of years there have been COM
plants to the Civil Service Commission about
fees charged by these agencies for placing" job
applicants on the Federal payroll. The commits
sion has been trying for a long time to convince
Congress that this practice is fraudulent and
should be outlawed The Senate on several occa-
sions has passed commission-sponsored bill to
make the practice illegal, but invariably the
House Judiciary Committee has been a stumbling
block.
With Government hiring on the increase.
however, the committee finally agreed that
applicants for civil service jobs ought to be pro-
tected from such unwarranted fees AS the Civil
Service Commission points out no private agency
has the authority to place anybody in Federal
position No agency has access to hiring infor-
nation that is not generally available to the
public. Applicants for Government jobs do not
need the aid of any employment agency to
obtain civil service employment. There are in
stances however, when Federal departments re-
quest the help of private agencies in finding
applicants for particular obs-and the bill pro-
vides that under these circumstances fee
would be legitimate. But for employment agen-
cies to exact fee from job-seekers who are
advised to apply for Federal employment is
carrying employment counseling too far.
