Senate Shall Not Be Led at All

posed that it shall not be led
at all.
How does d situation such as
this come to pass? Not because
of Senator McFarlands senior
ity. There are other Demo-
cratic Senators older in years
and in service. In any case,
unlike committee chairman
ships, the majority leadership
always has been considered too
important to be decided by
seniority. 1t calls for energy
and endurance as well as ex-
perience, for ability to think
quickly and act decisively.
Since that scarcely describes
the Arizona Senator, how does it
happen that he has been put
forward for the post and that
enough votes have been
pledged" to assure his election?
The answer seems to rest with
two very able and industrious
younger members, Senators Kerr
of Oklahoma and johnson of
Texas. Either, in his own right,
has greater capacity for leader
ship than the man they are
sponsoring. Both are shrewd

Iso|ationisn1 Like an Epidemic

The American people. more
over, don't like double talk.
They are not in a mood to listen
to excuses and rationalizations
as to why Communist China
should have a seat in the U. N.
When the U. N. on June 26
moved against aggression and
when the Red Chinese began to
assist the North Korean aggres-
sors. the American people ex-
pected the U. N. to call a spade
a spade. They don't expect
certain U. N. member govern
ments to f1irt with the enemy
and to encourage them by dis
cussing the prospects of admis-
sion to the U. N through nego-
tiations. The British Prime
Minister. after his visit to Presi-
dent Truman. made a fatal
error in publicly reiterating
Britain's interest in admitting
Red China to the U. N, at the
very moment when American
boys were being slaughtered by
an aggreSsor - Red China's
armies in Korea. The way to
combat isolationism is to unite
behind principles and to uphold
them sincerely. irrespective of
eXpediency and material con-
siderations. The moment a
moral cause becomes tainted
with materialism 1t loses it's
spiritual quality and begets self
isnness, which is the main in
gredient of the isolationist at
titude.
Politicians. whether they be
Republicans or Democrats,
watch the trends of public opin-
ion. The Associated Press sur
vey last week end telling about
the avalanche of letters to edi-
tors of newspapers shows how
widespread is the dissatisfac-
ton with European govern
ments that have failed to send
their proper proportion Of
troops to Korea. European iso-
lationism has provoked Ameri-
can isolationism.
Politically speaking, isolation
ism in this country thrives on
the oft-repeated remark that
Europe is playing America for
a sucker" The best way to re-
fute it is by facts. Unhappily,
Europe's record of mobiliZing

manpower in her own defense
in the last few years is bad. AS
long as Europe fails to perceive
her own failures, isolatiollism
will grow in America. But once
Europe puts her shoulder to
the wheel and stops talking
about the idea that we are going
to "get begged down" in the
Far East with American troops
and money wanted by Europe,
the sooner will American pub
lie opinion rally behind Europe's
defense as it has done twice
before in our history.
To say that aggression should
be appeased in the Far East
because we are powerless to
fight it there is to admit a
weakness that really doesn't
exist. All our troops now COM
mitted in the Far East. in what
may for some time to come have
to be a holding operation rather
than an offensive. would not be
enough to defend even a small
part of Europe if they were
transferred there at once. If
American air and naval re-
sources cannot fight a holding
operation in the Pacific while
we assist In carrying on a major
operation in Europe, it must be
because Europe expects America
to do the whole job and furnish
the bulk of the manpower. That
simply isn't in the cards. and
many of the "isolationists" of
today are those who feel that
Europe hasn't done her duty to-
ward the U. N. resolution on
intervention in Korea, and If
that's to be the course of his
tory America had better pro-
tect herself by waiting within
her own defense line for Europe
to show a will to help us as
allies.
The misunderstanding - for
such it really is-can be cleared
away. But the Truman admins
tration is handicapped in not
being able to proclaim Ameri-
can purposes persuasively to the
world because at this moment
European governments have not
shown their willingness to make
genuine sacrifices to resist Com
munist aggression no matter
where it launches its attack.

Lowell MeHett::

There sits in the United
States Senate an amiable, in
offensive, genuinely likeable ex-
judge, representing the sovereign
State of Arizona. Not without
ability, he is yet without dis
tinction. even in a Senate
where tall men, in terms of
craftsmanship, are not too nu-
merous. During his ten years
of service he has been content
to rock along. following the
party line - the Democratic
Party line-for the most part
and leaving it to others to do
the leading. On rare occasions,
If the interests of the party or
of the country seemed to con-
flict with the interests of his
State or those of his State who
supported him, he has quietly
strayed from the fold, being lit
tie different in that respect from
other Senators. But usually his
vote could be counted in ad-
vance. He has just gone along,
Offering no leadership, content
to be led.
Which is my friend and every
body's friend. Senator Ernest w.
Mcfarland. Maybe the portrait
doesn't do him justice. Maybe
the other Senators see him diff
ferently. see beneath his genial
exterior a dynamic personality,
a man Of persuasive power,
manipulation Of political forces
not to be despised. If so he has
been fooling a lot of people, in
cluding the entire press gall
lery. for a long time. No leader,
he. is the general estimate.
So it is proposed to make him
the majority leader.
The proposal is made at a
time when the country is cry
ing out for leadership, some of
the shrillest crying coming from
the Senate chamber itself. 1t
comes at a time of crisis in our
country's and the worlds his

that will depend on how well

both are so new in the Senate
that seniority might actually
apply to them. So, working
underground for many weeks,
they have pushed the candi-
dacy of the surprised but agree
able Mr.. Mcfarland to the
point where it is possible to
bring it out into the daylight as
an alleged fait accompli. The
bulk Of their support was OBJ
tanned from the Southern bloc,
which had no reason to fear
that Mr.. Mcfarland would ever
start rampaging about such
things as civil rights, he being
a cross between Southerner
and a Westerner himself.
Based on their records in the
Senate thus far, Mr.. McFar-
lands managers have one prime
interest, and it is oil. They
succeeded in getting Senator
Kerr's natural gas bill, desired
by the big oil companies, through
the Senate last session, only to
have it vetoed by the President.
Next time they hope to override

Revolt in Policy Inevitable

warning voice was accused Of
rocking the boat, threatening
the peace, or being defeatist-
as this column was defeatist
about Korea. A little ordinary
honesty, some frank confessions
of error these would have
cleared the air and would have
done far more to increase conf
dence than the policy of keeping
skeletons locked in closets and
insisting that behind all the
improvisations was some wise,
far-seeing plan.
There has been no wisdom and
no foresight and now there is
popular revolt-also without

David Lawrence:

Isolationism is a very trouble
some word in American politics
and the sentiment which it
represents is never overcome
merely by denouncing its ex-
ponents. Nor is isolationism
confined only to Republicans.
The late Franklin D. Roose-
welt was at one time an exponent
of isolationist doctrine Al
though a candidate for Vice
President in 1920 on a platform
that favored American entry in
to the League of Nations, he re-
versed himself in 1882 to gain
isolationist support for his
nomination for the presidency.
When he became President he
broke up the International Eco
nomic Conference being held in
London il 1888 which might
have laid the foundation for q
sort of Marshall Plan that might
have buttressed Europe against
World War II.
Isolation!sm Is like an epidemic
it penetrates everywhere and
within both political parties. AS
one who has consistently op-
posed It ever since the 1920s,
the observation may be ad-
varoed now that isolationist
pc. .vies are never defeated by
denouncing their sponsors.
The real way to fight isola-
tionism is 20 get at It's causes
and debate the issues vigorously.
The momentum given to isola-
tionism here in recent weeks
came from Europe-not Amer
lea. The sooner the Truman ad-
ministration and those Re-
publicans who are anti-isolation
wake up to the fact that to
millions of Americans it looks as
If our allies have forsaken us.
the sooner will the European
peoples be told the blunt truths
they need to know.
Another motivating reason
for the growth of isolationism
recently in America is the atti-
tude of the United Nations it
self. Failure to declare Russia
an aggressor, failure to declare
Communist China an aggressor,
failure to deal firmly with the
many violations of international
law of which the Communists
are guilty has weakened faith
in the U. N.
Evening star., 1951-01-02

The overwhelmingly favorable
response to eX-President Hoov-
er's speech does not surprise
this columnist. A swing toward
isolationism was, in our opinion,
bound to occur, the more violent
ly because of the obdurate op-
position OF the administration
and its Republican fellow
travellers to any discussion,
even, of past and present for
eign policy.
Some weeks ago. while I was
travelling in the Middle East, I
picked up a week-old paper con-
tanning an attack by Mr.. Ache
son on the "re- -exaministS," as
disguised isolationists ''incapa-
able of any constancy of pur-
pose" According to Mr.. Acheson
the desire "to re-examine our
programs and to see whether we
should have started them, was
like a farmer who pulls up his
crops in the morning to see how
they have done during the
night"
Well. many nights have passed
since the spring of 1945 when
the present foreign policy was
seeded. The crop is now visibly
above ground, and obviously it
sprung from dragons teeth. II
fault can be attributed to the
American people, it is that they
postponed their 're-examina-
ton" too long, and that the
articulate international claque
howled down every critic-as
this columnist has had occasion
to know.
Even while the present United
Nations was in the formative
stage of the Dumbarton Oaks
proposals, to bring any criticism
of its structure, or to speculate
that far from assuring peace
with justice it was more likely
to lead to a series of private
wars of unlimited objectives, es-
sentially purposeless, was prac-
tically to commit lese majesty.
Yet, it was in March, 1945, that
I made my own predictions of
the postwar world: "A grand
scale Macedonia of Komitaji
politicians a perpetual devils
brew of desperatism and des-
peradoism; open to interventions
by foreign-controlled parties,
crossed and rent by theological
conflicts not of armies in the
conventional sense, but of armed
bands given over to social
convulsions. forced and volun-
tary migrations, separations,
throwing up petty contenders
with revolutionary followers
:. an era OF perpetual wars. all
fought in the name of peace"
This, and much else, I wrote
in my diary then-and got it
published only in January, 1948,
in that superior weekly of small
circulation, The Commonweal.
The fact is that there has
been no constancy of purpose
because in five years nothing
has been related to principles.
Everything that has happened
was, therefore, bound to happen.
1t is the fruit of the seed: In
the first sep the assumption of

all future rebels suppressed; un-
conditional surrender-meaning
the rejection OF all restraints;
the partition of Poland, Ger
many, Korea and Palestine; the
total disarmament of Germany
and Japan and the disastrous
weakening of Italy, within no
framework of real collective
security, thus creating vacuums
of fatal weakness in the very
heartland of the Eurasian land
complex. In the second, the in
evitable rift in the grand al
lance and the attempt, then, to
