Just Plain Fooiishness

Speaker Rayburn, coming back to theme
which he first broached last week. says that
the Russians are massing "here, there and every
where" and that the people Of the United States
are in terrible danger" Other public figures,
men like Chairman Mcmahon Of the Joint Con-
gressional Committee on Atomic Energy, and
General Marshall tend to support this statement.
Other sources tend to knock it down. The
''Pentagon,' for instance, denies any knowledge
of Soviet troops massing or even being In Man
churia in any considerable numbers.
Where does this leave the American people?
Speaker Rayburn says it is "just plain foolish
ness" for the people not to understand the
gravity of the situation. Maybe so. But what
understanding can the people get from cryptic
warnings from one source that are watered
down by another source? II we are in '9terrible
danger" from some new development Mr., Ray
burn, or some one in authority, ought TO tell
us precisely what the nature Of the danger is.
If they viii not or cannot do that, they should
keep quiet. This business of trying to arouse
the people with warnings that are not supported
by facts is just plain foolishness.

Congress and Starvation

Speaker Rayburn has expressed the hope
that the food for India bill will be brought up
soon for action in the House. Millions Of men,
women and children have reason to pray that
that is what will happen, and the sooner the
better The millions are those who are threat
ened with famine. They are those who probably
know little or nothing about what is going on In
cur Congress, but shey are the ones whose stona-
achs-whose very lives-depend upon what Con-
gress does, and when it does it.
What needs to be kept constantly in mind in
this situation is the hard fact that time is OF the
essence. The monsoon hits India in the summer,
and when it hits it makes roads impossible.
Hence, unless food is shipped to the remote parts
of the country in the meantime, a lot of people
literally millions of people-may be faced with
the horrors of starvation conditions Here is a
grim reality that is quite practicable. It is the
reality that has led President Truman, together
with everybody else who is aware Of it, to en-
phasize the great urgency Of prompt congress
sional action.

termination, some will power, but above
all it means, or should mean, rest of
the spirit. the warning spirit of man.
That is why the garden fence is neces-
sary. This is overlooked by many per-
sons, who honestly believe that yard

Garden means garth" or enclosed
place It is impossible to get the full
flavor of a garden if it lies too open to

scarcely is the thing for the growing of
flowers in small space.
The size Of the tract has something
to do with the matter. 1t is impossible
to treat small tract in the same way
one would hundreds and thousands Of
acres. Even ranches have fences around
them! Small yards ought to have, at
least to some extent, the feel of the
indoors. It is impossible to think of
them as anything but samples of the
famous "great outdoors" The yard can
not take the place of the woods or fields.
The flowers grown in the cultivated
garden somewhat resemble paintings on
the living room wall. The best small
yard does not attempt too much. That
is where the restraint comes in, all along
the line. The idea is not too much Of
anything. a fine old motto. If we rake,
we do not worry about some leaves left
behind. If we prune, some old dead
stalks are left. IF there are insect enc
mics in those leaves, well, they will not
hurt anything, we hope. In this easy
manner. we dismiss care, In a world Of

against the Chinese inside Korea, with
his planes forbidden to cross the border.
Further. Macarthur has contended
Chang Kai-shek's Nationalist troops on
the island Of Formosa should be used
against the Chinese Communists.
Formosa is separated from the Chinese
mainland by narrow strip of water.
Chang holed up there with the rem
nants Of his Nationalist troops when the
Communists drove them off the main
land.
Turning them loose against the Chi
nese mainland now would be opening
up second front in the Korean war.
This country would have to supply those
troops. That would be quite drain,
and it would end hope of peace with the
Communists.

Macarthur fumed and fused about
the restraints placed on him, and the
fact that his supplies of men were not
greater. He argued the problem in
Asia needed more attention.
He wasn't happy about the role given
Asia even during World War II, either.
After the Japanese attack on Pearl
Harbor. this country sent troops and
ships into the Pacific, where Mac
Arthur was big boss.
But it concentrated on putting it's
main strength into fighting Germany
in Europe first, where General Eisen-
hover was big boss When Germany
fell, full American strength was turned
on Asia.
Now Macarthur was once again in
war in Asia, this time as commander
of the U. N. forces. And once again,
Eisenhower was big boss in Europe.
He's commander of the international
army being put together by this coun-
try and its Atlantic pact partners.

action so far is that certain members of the
Rules Committee-which has been blocking the
measure-do not like some of Prime Minister
Nehru's international policies. But Mr.. Nehru
and his policies are one thing, and the millions
of Indians who are menaced with famine are
another The two should not be confused. Con-
gress should act swiftly to fulfill Mr.. Rayburn's
hope. Members who think otherwise had better
search their consciences as humanitarians and
their minds as realists who do not want to hand
Communism great victory In Asia.
Time marches on, and starvation marches
with it as far as India is concerned. Congress
cannot dawdle much longer on this matter with
out condemning huge numbers of human beings
to great suffering and doing violence to the best
interests and traditions OF the United States.

to try to present logical approach to

the agrarian reform party In China is
wearing rather thin, as far as ] am
concerned.
Twice within the last 20 years, the
seeds Of war have sprouted In Asia. and
as usual we turn our backs and bury
our heads ostrich-like in the sands Of
Europe. It seems rather unSound, from
military point Of view alone. to pro-
tect ourselves on our one flank and
leave the other open for attack. A look
at what we have to lose in the way of
raw materials If Asia is shut of from
us. the logical aim Of the Russian mas
ter minds. should make plain the stakes
we have to fight for in the Pacific. This
is apart from the moral debt we owe to
any one who Is fighting the mounting
Red aggression.
Europe is important, but let us not
lose sight Of the Importance of Asia.

Arlington's Opportunity

The Falls Church City Council now agrees
with the Alexandria City Council and the Board
bf Supervisors of Fairfax County that there
khould be joint engineering survey to determine
the most feasible and economical method Of
sewage treatment and disposal.
1t was the Arlington County Board that re-
yiyed this proposal for joint survey before firm
decisions are reached by any of the four juris-
.dictions to proceed independently. So there is
now complete agreement among these jurisdic-
Nons that there should be a survey
q Arlington County's Board, however, wants
thei survey made by one firm that believes it
can do the job in three months. The three
other communities are agreed on another firm,
which thinks the job would last six months.
Arlington's board representatives, serving on
an interim committee representing the four
Communities have given fine leadership to the
Joint survey idea It would be most unfortunate,
now, If Arlington's board declined to go along
With the majority and thus place in jeopardy
the success of an idea that it has so conspicu-

committed to heavy expenditures for something
that may turn cut to be costly mistake, would

achievement in community leadership within its
grasp. It is inconceivable that intelligent men
and women would fail to take advantage of the
opportunity to carry it through.

The Argument That Caused the Firino
BY james Morrow

This is an ABC OF the big fuss over
i Gen. MacArthur's ideas and those
Of the Truman administration which led
the President to oust Macarthur early
today.
Macarthur has wide support. particu-
larly among Republicans in Congress.
Boiled down. this is the Macarthur
school Of thought:
1. Although this country and its At
lantic Pact partners are making big
plans for defense Of Europe. In case
Russia attacks there. the big fight
against communism has to be made In
Asia.
2. MacArthur's hands were tied. He
was not permitted to use his full
strength in the Korean war against the
Chinese Communists or to fight it the
way he. as general In command. thought
best. This meant that there could only
be stalemate, with men and materials
chewed up needlessly.
Boiled down. this is the opposite view
point:
/. A lot more than just the fighting
in Korea is at stake, possibly outbreak
of war In Europe. The great danger is
Russia. not China. So we can't afford
to get too deeply involved in Asia, such
as all-out war with China, which we
might do If Macarthur were allowed free
rein.
2. The United Nations which are in
the Korean fighting with this country
keeping their eye on the European
Iays y ka Axal
to the fighting in Korea by reaching
some settlement with China that would
let them concentrate on Europe. But If
Macarthur followed his ideas, such peace
might be impossible.
3. Further, the Truman administration
was miffed at Macarthur for repeatedly
popping of with suggestions which
might upset this country's other plans
for Europe, and perhaps spoil chances
of peace with China. That finally led
to his dismissal.
To understand the situation. look at
geography:
The only part of China which touches
Korea is Manchuria. It runs along the
whole northern Korean border All the
men and supplies which the Chinese
pour into Korea have to move down
through Manchuria.
Also. the Chinese reserves and sup
plies are based in Manchuria And any
planes which the Chinese have, given
them by Russia. have to be based in
Manchuria. Russia is Manchuria's other
neighbor
Macarthur wanted freedom to bomb
China's Manchurian supplies and bases.
If they were smashed, the Chinese in
Korea would have tougher going than
they've undergone so far.
But Macarthur was not permitted to

Trans Oil Temper

It seems highly unlikely that the Attlee
Labor government will be able to save the Anglo
Iranian Oil Company from being appropriated
and nationalized. Although the British own and
operate this great property under concession
that is supposed to remain in force until 1898,
the Parliament at Teheran has voted unani-
inously to take it over, and Premier Hussein Ala
a good friend of the Western world-has politely
but firmly rejected Londons formal note of pro-
test So 1t will be miracle of sorts il the pro-
posed naturalization is not carried through to
compilation.
OF course, as Premier Ala and many members
Of Parliament must know, the wisdom OF the
project is open to serious question because Iran
lacks the capital and skilled manpower to get
the most out of its tremendous oil resources, and
also because its sorely needed program of eco
nornic and social reform is dependent on the
kind of revenue that has been provided by
British-paid royalties Nevertheless, however
impractical the idea, Iranian public opinion ap-
parently is overwhelmingly in favor of nationali-
zation. This is so because the people of the
country, who have always tended to be hostile to
foreign. ownership, have recently been experience
ing intensely nationalistic feelings in period of
great agitation widespread unrest and high ten
sion all of which has been eXpertly exploited by
the Communist Tudeh Party.
Given this stuation-a' situation that has
been further infamed by propaganda growing.
out Of Britain's past reluctance and failure to
pay larger royalties to Iran-it is not surprising
that the members of Parliament and MIR. Ala
have ridden along with popular opinion. No
matter how unrealistic it may be- naturalization
is what most of the Iranians want at this time,
and more than few fanatics among them have
openly threatened to kill any opposing official,
just as in the of the brutally slain Premier
Ali Razmara. Obviously, while this sort of public
temper prevails, the Attlee government can hard
ly hope to hold on to the Anglo -Iranian Oil Com
pany Although Teheran has yet to reach final
decision, all signs indicate that there will be
reversal of the parliamentary vote to nationalize
the property
In such circumstances, since Iran is a major
supplier of oil to Western Europe and the chief
fueler of the British fleet, what must be hoped
for is fair and sensible settlement under which
the eonnpany-if naturalization cannot be
avoided win still produce efficiently for the free
world. Presumably that is the main objective Of
the current Anglo-American talks on the prob
len-tolay the groundwork for good agreement
with Teheran, an agreement that viii not play
into the Kremlin's eager hands.

World Health Contribution


The Public Health Service of the
United States has been playing an in
creasingly important part in bringing
better health to the worlds children as
well as to our own.
As we celebrated World Health Day on
April Z, we could note with pride that the
same public health methods and know
how which have helped to reduce death
rates and to raise health standards in
our country are being broadcast to
help prevent infant and child deaths and
sickness in many other parts of the
globe.
Public Health Service experts, who
have participated in the control of ma
laria. venereal diseases, tuberculosis,
trachoma and other diseases in the
United States, are now assisting in over
coming those preyentable diseases in
other lands also. This is in addition to
the work of the U. S. Children'S Bureau,
which is the Office of the Federal Secur-
ity Agency primarily devoted to i'm
proving health and welfare services for
children.
Through grants and fellowships and a
training program for physicians, nurses,
sanitarians and other public health
workers, the service has helped to train
experts from so different countries of
both hemisphereS In modern health meth
DDS. These traineeS are now applying
the techniques they have learned in the
United States in their own home areas.
The health of the children has been
a primary concern. Dramatic results
have already been obtained in some
areas through intensive campaigns for
control of malaria and other diseases
that have taken great toll in illness
and death among children.
AS the health of the people has i'm
proved, their productive capacity has
also improved Better health among
farm workers through control of malaria
and other insect-borne diseases has re-
