Olive Branch Out to Byrnes

In a quiet series Of seminars
the administration also has
been attempting to 60 over the
heads of prominent debaters on
foreign policy to reach the
people. Public opinion leaders
have been here in conference
with the State Department
about Americas story to the
world, more are en- route.
The President shows to his
callers no lack of confidence
either in his program or the
execution of it. If the great
questions now being brought to
the fore bother him, he does not
betray it. The assurance which
he expressed to his press con-
ference that he could beat back
his critics in a fight for public
support, he repeats privately.
Nor does he pay heed to criti-
cisms of his staff. He admits
that mobilization is proceeding
somewhat slowly but says that
Charles E. Wilson is going ahead
as rapidly as any one could ex-
pect. If the reports of the Presi-
dents visitors are correct there
will be no White House shifts
in the near future, despite
Congressional complaints.

Doris FIeeson:

Undersecretary of State James
z. Webb is in South Carolina
today holding out the olive
branch to James F. Byrnes on
the occasion of Mr.. Byrnes'
Inauguration as Governor OF
South Carolina.
Mr.. Webb is on hand to con-
gratulate the new Governor in
the hope and expectation that
Mr.. Byrnes will continue to
uphold the foreign policy he
did so much to shape. The
administration says it has no
advance information on what
to expect in the way OF an
inaugural address but it appears
confident of his support.
What Mr.. Byrnes does, one
way or another, will influence
public opinion. His inaugura-
ton is not, however. the political
story that it promised to be
last year when his attacks on
the welfare state" made him a
spokesman for the conServa-
tive tide which appeared to be
sweeping the Nation and led
Republicans to look to him as
leader of Dixiecrat rebellion
which would profit them in the
end.
Evidence of this is the COM

New Strategy in Far East Looms

essary than ever. On-the-spot
exchanges of views regarding
the capabilities of the Chinese
Communists and the Soviet
armies in Eastern Siberia and
Manchuria-are Of vital i'm
portance to the framing Of
immediate strategic plans.
It is probable that some OF
the figures available to the Joint
Chiefs of Staff in Washington
differ from those available to
the supreme commander in
Tokyo. 1t is also probable that
the evaluation of the actual
strength of these forces is diff
ferent in washington from that
in Tokyo.
In the last two weeks there
has been a definite trend In
Washington military quarters
to view the Pacific front with
more interest and anxiety than
previously. The possibility OF
3 Russia's committing an aggres-
sion against Japan Is more in
the minds Of responsible officials
today than in the past.
The United States Navy and
Air Force are certainly big bar
riers to Russia in any such
move. But the Soviet has an
impressive submarine feet and
an adequate air force, which
has not yet been in action.
These two branches of Soviet
armed power could lessen
the danger of an amphibious
and airborne operation against
Japan.
These are some of the mill
tary considerations which must
be gone into thoroughly by the
military men before a definite
strategy can be presented to
the civilian officials in WASH
ington who must make the
final decision.

Needless Panic in the News

American losses are such that
from military viewpoint there
would be an advantage in send
ing heavy reinforcements and
pressing the attack northward,
this will be done. So every
thing depends on the tide Of
battle in Korea and a decision
is not likely to be made for sew
eral weeks.
Meanwhile, a cease fire" or a
failure of the u. N. to declare
Communist China an aggressor
could bring about a decisive
change. The latter could mean
that the United States Air
Force and Navy will be released
to bomb targets and ports in
Communist China. For it is
inconceivable that the United
States would fail to press the
battle against the Communist
Chinese on its own if the U. N.
gets begged down on the mat
ter of declaring the Communist
regime an aggressor or declines
to follow this up with steps to
punish such aggression.
1t is natural that more and
more of the command operation
should be transferred to Gen.
Ridgeway in Korea and less and
less responsibility should be
carried by Gen. Macarthur.
Since fairly large-scale opera
tions are in progress and more
may come later. it is important
that Gen. Ridgeway have the
authority OF a theater COM
mander who also reports directly
to the Joint Chief of Stats.
This is a normal military pro-
cedure and doubtless was recon-
mended by Gen. Macarthur
himself, who, as a former chief
OF staff and wartime COM
mander, understands fully the
difference between trying to run
a war in Korea and trying to
run it simultaneously from an
Office building in Tokyo 200 or
300 miles away.

Lowell MeHett:
Youth Of Today and Other Days

The urge to become cynical
in times like these is strong. It
must be strong indeed among
young men and women, now
being asked to fight or prepare
to fight or endure the discom-
fort of war. The disposition is
to say they" got us into this
situation, let them" get us out,
or let them" do the worrying.
This is nothing new in the
history of human kind. You
will come on it's fairly full ex-
preston in "Boswell's London
Journal" which so many people
are now reading.
"I drank coffee at MacFar-
lanes" wrote James Boswell.
then aged %. "Erskine and he
got into a dispute about the
Peace and each told his antag-
onist that he was speaking ar
rant nonsense. They were seri-
ously hot. I was much diverted
at Captain Andrews being so,
who does not enter the least
into common notions. and does
not care a farthing whether
there be peace or war or con-
fusion in Europe, provided he
and his own agreeable circle be
safe and happy.
II must own that I am much
of that way of thinking. I can
not help it. I see too far into
the system Of things to be much
in earnest. I consider mankind
In general, and therefore can
not take part in their quarrels
when divided into particular
states and nations. I can see
that after a war is over and q
