Profound Distrust of Foreign Policy
Shown by People of u. S. and Europe

but the decline is not accom-
panied by a rise of confidence in
existing anti-Communist gov
ernments.
With very few exceptions, not
a European government can
claim more than a precarious
margin of popular support. Nor.
in my opinion. can our own.
There is no Churchill. or Roose-
welt, to rally the British or
American people into enthusi-
astic unity and trustfulness.
And this is not merely due. I
think, to the absence of dy-
manic personalities. Neither
Roosevelt nor Churchill, or
other personalities as dynamic,
could, I believe, do it again
and I seriously doubt whether
Stain could.
The western world, at least,
as a result of World War II, is
profoundly and instinctively
pacifist. And the people of this
world are not convinced that
the American policy of peace by
the threat of overwhelming
force, and postponement of seri-
Gus attempts at a settlement
until such force exists, is the
road to peace. Although an
immense selling campaign has
been put on for this policy, it
has not been sold.
I recently had an opportunity
to test this. The Town Hall of
the Air staged a debate on the

BY the Associated Press

SEVILLA, Spain, Mar. 10.-Lt
Gen. Gonzalo Queipo de Llano, 76,
one of Generalissimo Francisco
frances top officers in the Span
ish Civil War, died yesterday after
a long illness.
Queipo de Llano was longtime
follower of Franco. He command
ed the southern Nationalist forces
during the civil war.
Gen. Queipo de Llano, famed as
the "broadcasting general" was
credited with originating the term
fifth column"
Used Term ON Radio.
He used the term in a series of
nightly broadcasts from Seville,
directed to Loyalist forces in
Madrid and elsewhere.
I'VE have four columns on the
battlefield against you and a fifth
column inside your ranks" the
general warned. This propaganda
resulted in bloody purges in the
centers controlled by Republican
forces.
Gen. Queipo de Llano took con-
troll of Seville for Franco at the
outbreak of the civil war in July,
1886, having been stationed there
as inspector general of carabinieri.
Later he was credited with hold
ing the city through his personal
will despite the uncertain sympa-
thies of the garrison.

9 He also achieved the capture
of Malaga, an important seaport,
with the aid of Italians sent by
Mussolini.
He was relieved of command of
the southern forces in 1899 when
he got into disagreement with the
Franco group and gradually
dropped from public sight. al
though he headed a military mis-
sion to Italy for a period. In
1912 he was placed under house
detention by Franco for a time,
for reasons which were not ex-
planned.
Last year. however, he was one
of four civil war leaders who re-
ceived the title of marquis. and a
town near Seville bears his name.

Lowell MeHett::

The Senate has voted to limit
the armed forces of the United
States to 4 million men. The
action was taken over the pas
sionate protest of the Nations
military leaders. Gems, Mar
shall, Bradley, Collins and VAN
denberg put their protests in
strongly-worded letters to the
Senate. One said any fixed limit
in the present chaotic world
situation was "a direct gamble
with national security" An
other said it would give the
Soviet Union the greatest single
fixed factor any country could
have with which to plot the
downfall of the United States.
It is proper enough that these
experienced men, responsible for
the active defense of the coun-
try. should make their views
known concerning a matter
so important. The alternative
would be to shrug their shoul-
ders and look forward to the
time when they could use the
limitation as an alibi in case of
military disaster. They do we'll
to speak out now. And they
would do better if they were to
express themselves just as forth
rightly on another limitation of
our armed strength which has
long given them concern. That
is the deplorable state of health
and education in this wealthy
country, which continues to
cause the rejection of so many
young men registered for mill
tary service.
Much has been said and writ
ten regarding the reflections in
World War II. Now Senator
Lister Hill of Alabama an
nounces that the rate of rejec-
tions has been much higher since
the beginning of the Korean
campaign than it was in World
War II. This he has discovered
as the result of studies he has
had made in connection with a
bill on which he and Senator
Taft are working-a revised aid
to education bill designed to
meet the objections encountered
heretofore in the House.
Since Korea, he finds, the
rate of reflections for all reasons
has been 81 percent. That cov-
ers only the 19-to-25 age group.
In World War II the rate was
35.8 percent for the 18-to-44
group. For the 18-to-25 group
in World War II it was only"
26 percent.
The total number of men
found unfit for service since
September, 1948, is 9O6,843, or
the equivalent of so infantry

The Government contends that
Gaylord Hauser's book, Look
Younger, Live Longer" never
should have been stuck in with a
shipment of blackstrap molasses.
Copies of the book and the
molasses shipment have been
seized by Food and Drug Admin
istration agents and a complaint
filed in Federal Court in Buff
falo, N. Y.
In announcing this action yes
terday, the agency charged that
the book falsely suggests the
molasses would increase life five
years and abate troubles ranging
from heart disease to badness.
The announcement said the
book, which has been widely re-
viewed and condensed in maga-
zines, served as a label for the
molasses. Another book, "Crude
Black Molasses," by Cyril Scott,
also was seized with the shipment,
the agency said.
Ralph Kneeland, assistant to
the food and drug commissioner
said the molasses was shipped
from the Natures Food Center,
