Diplomats Block Macarthur
Stoemote in Koreo Is an Accomplished Fact
Peace Actions Have No Relations to Peace

ing that Gen. Macarthur had
''blundered again"
The British government. which
has been very cold to any fur
ther operations in Korea since
the Chinese Communists entered
the war last November. pro-
claimed that Gen. Macarthur
was interfering with the peace
actions" of the United Nations.
What are those peace ac-
tions?" Nobody seems to know
definitely. Except that some
thing along the lines Of last
years cease-fire proposal is be-
ing cooked up at Lake Success.
Men belonging to the U. N.
forces are dying every day on
the Korean battlef1elds.
The fact that America has
suffered $1,000 casualties SO far
in the fight for principles estab-
lished in the U. N. Charter and
is willing to continue to hight
until aggression has been wiped
out. seems to be Of little weight
with the diplomats. who are
more interested in formulating
principles Of peace than in
peace itself.
A field commander can and
should, on the basis Of that de-
cision Of the United Nations.
take every military step to de-
stroy the enemy. Yet, as soon
as the Supreme Commander
merely threatens the aggressor
with retaliation, the govern
ments which have entrusted
command to him rush to re-
assure the enemy that he will
not be allowed to make full use
of his military capabilities.
This may be correct In the
minds Of the men who wear
striped trousers. But it merely
appears cockeyed to the men
who carry weapons and risk
their lives "a hours Q day.

Eastern propaganda that Ger
many is "the coolie Of Western
capitalist interests"
The West has neglected Ger
man youth. In the Eastern
zone. the free German youth
has over 100000 members
out of a total population of IT,
100000 people. In general, the
West German government ap-
peals to the conservative and
old. the East German to the
young and dynamic.
But the main point Is that
the West has consistently been
putting the cart before the
horse, working for economic and
military integration of Ger
many, before any Germany ex-
lists, or is projected. No one
even can tell how the West
imagines the German future, let
alone how it can conceivably
be achieved.
It is the thesis of this COL
umn that one cannot long fight
an idea-any idea, however
good or bad-without a posi-
tive counter-idea. The "anti"
campaign is rapidly exhausting
itself. Only by the projection
of positive and reasonable meas
ures, with peace as their OBJ
jective. could we call the So.
viets' bluff. Instead, concen-
trating wholly on building up
military strength, we are dis
sipating all political initiative.

Actually there are four pro-

rely on the force Of public opin-

by the committee itself or a per-

mean bigger and better tele-

that Congress never will make

Some of those who were bait

ferring to the fact that, while
he has resigned from the Gen.

the contrary. whenever there's

The idea sought to be conveyed
is that "big business" is bad

therein lacks integrity and can
not be honest or impartial in
making policies for his own gov
ernment.
This isn't a new development.
Anyone who examines the week.

bor unions in America. which
are paid for by the dues Of
labor-union members, will find
constantly therein these same
phrases of hatred and class
warfare and a steady undermin-
ing of the workingman's faith
in all employers. The railroad
brotherhoods, for example
themselves always regarded by
this correspondent as among
the finest trade unions in Amer

countable reason support and
publish newspapers filled with
epithets against anyone who
happens to disagree with their
viewpoint. The epithets. usual
ly are personal and convey in
nuendoes of lack of integrity.
They build up in the working
mans mind concept of hatred
which must inevitably breed bad
feeling and more and more dis
sension in this republic.

Finds Life Radically Altered
By Kefuuver Video Parties
Henry McLenore:

The latest fad among the
women of the New York area Is
Kefauver parties.
The Senator from Tennessee
and his crime investigating COM
mittee have put a stop to
canasta parties. bridge parties.
and whatever is the name Of
those parties where women just
gather at some friends home
and discuss fashions. recipes.
and all OF the women they know
who are not present.
On the surface this would
seem to be a very fine step for
ward in women's progress, but
is it? I ask this question as a
husband. These Kefauver parties
have radically altered my life.
and I imagine they have radi-
cally altered the lives Of count
less other husbands.
I am not at all sure but that
my wife isn't more fond of Sena-
tor Kefauver than she is of me.
She certainly talks more about
him than She does me. I get
Brother Kefauver with break
fast, lunch and dinner.
Another thing I get with
breakfast is continual phone
conversations by my wife with
other .Kefauver-struck chicks
concerning where they will
gather to watch the morning
and afternoon sessions.
Being women, they fight like
tigers over the phone as to
where they will gather. I am
sure this is to avoid being the
hostess with its attendant worry
about lunch and light refresh
ments. I have heard Jean tell
some fibs as big as any Cos

The Rev. James Kraus, recently

Diocese and student at the Univer-
Sity of Fribourg, Switzerland, has
designed the banner for Columbia,

the university.
Father Kraus, president of Co

Thanksgiving Day, the 18th jubi-

The banner was made in colored
silk by Madame Wong, a Chinese
student at the university.
In describing the banner, Father
Kraus said, "A crusaders cross di-
