that there was quite that same
cold indignation in the air as
when Senator Jenner of Indi-
ana year or so ago put on a
similar act. Senator Jenner had
no galleries to play to: the
Senate then was meeting In
the old Supreme Court while the
chamber roof was repaired.
His colleagues and the press
treated him to an unusual
demonstration of silent con-
tempt. although he is not taken
very seriously here as a rule.
In demonstration OF Senator
McCarthy's proved power to
hurt regulations, the forewarned
Pentagon had sent o mass Of
material in praise of Gen.
Marshall to the press galleries.
Obviously the Defense Depart
ment was determined not to fail
to do anything that might be
useful. as the State Depart
ment and Secretary Acheson's
friends had failed when the
Mccarthy attacks first began.
There was some difference Of
opinion over whether this made
Senator Mccarthy seem. too
important. He's important all
right: the 1850 elections proved
that.

Is his 60,oo0-word indictment

Or is it part of an effort
to retrieve the Macarthur

What will be the attitude Of

Meanwhile. however, the Rus
slams have injected themselves
into the picture. Instead of pres
surfing Turkey, as in the past,
they are appealing to the '.feel-
ings of self-preservation of the
Turkish people," either directly
or through some of their stooges
in the neighboring Moslem
countries.
They point out that the An
kara government has been
knocking at the door of the
State Department for nearly a
year and has received only in
definite promises. Agents in
the service of the U. S. S. r. init
mate that the refusal of Britain
land indirectly that of the
United States-to commit itself
to Turkey as it has to the
NATO nations Is due to the
hope OF some Western diplomats
that an agreement with Russia
may be accomplished at the
expense Of Turkey. by sacrifice
ing the Dardanelles to Moscow.
Of course there is no truth
whatever in this propaganda.
But it has its effect in a country
which wonders why America, a
sincere friend Of Turkey, is re-
luctant to translate tacit prom-
ises into an open pledge.
Moscow's agents now are try.

the Turkish Parliament with
these pertinent facts" in order

Student Of GIoboI Strategy Lost
Gen. Wedemeyer Is Casualty Of Washington intolerance
Toward Dissenting Opinion on Far East Policy
Doyid Lawrence:

There is at once something
tragic and discouraging in the
case Of it. Gen. Albert C. Wede-
meyer-that a man of his
breadth Of view. worthwhile ex-
perience and rare insight should
suddenly be lost to the Govern
ment's service in these critical
days. After three days Of testi-
flying, he was warmly applauded
by Democrats as well as Re-
-puhlicans. For. with candor and
uninhibited simplicity, he gave
the Senate committee some val
liable truths about American
policy in the Far East during
the last five years.
Here is no ordinary military
man. but a student Of glohal
strategy-an experienced PLAN
ner with q broad sweep Of
thought on how the military.
the economic, the psyche logical
and the spiritual resources Of
America can be brought to bear
in q new assertion of leadership.
He was commended by many
Senators who had disagreed
with him on the details Of his
approach, for instance. to the
Korean problem. They thought
his broad and comprehensive
program to be a step in the
right direction.
Some newspaper headlines
may have given the impression
that Gen. Wedemeyer wants to
withdraw from Korea and call
1t quits. To say this is to take
out Of context what he pro-
posed and to select what may
have appeared sensational rath-
er than substantial. Plainly,
Gen Wedemeyer thinks it is
strategically wrong to concen-
trate our ground forces in Korea,
but, II we stay there, he would
have our commanders in Korea
given full authority to bomb
Manchurian bases and carry the
war to the enemy who are at
lacking us. Either you are in
. war or you aren't-this is his
clear-cut approach. While he
didn't favor use Of ground
troops originally in Korea, he
believes the time has come either
to attack the enemy directly,

and the United States in partic-
ular. Although Turkey is re-
ceiving only a pittance for her
rearmament program, and a
few crumbs from ECA, the
Ankara government has lent its
unqualified support to all the
actions proposed by America
in the United Nations.
In order to bolster its mill
tary potential in one of the
most sensitive areas in the
world the Turkish government
has pleaded since last October
that 1t either be accepted in the
North Atlantic Treaty Organi-
cation or sign a mutual as
sistance pact with the United
States, 80 -
Two reasons prompted the
Turkish leaders to insist that one
Of those solutions, be adopted.
One was that as a member of
NATO Turkey would receive a
1 bigger slice of the billions our
Congress soon will appropriate
for the rearmament of that
organization. The second rea-
son is psychological. The self
confidence of the population
would be bolstered If the people
knew their country was an in
tegral part Of the Western
alliance. So far our Govern
ment, while promising to study
sympathetically Ankara's re-
quests, has made no positive
move to meet them.
The Iranian governments
unilateral action in national
izing her oilfields has created a
deeper impression in the Middle
East than is generally sus-
pected In this country. The
British governments acceptance
OF the Teheran regimes de-
cision was wise from the view
point Of preventing an inter-
national conflict. But Middle
Eastern peoples regard 1t as
further definite proof that
Britain Is too weak to defend
her own interests. Hence, she
must be considered too weak
to defend the smaller and mill
tarily helpless nations on the
periphery Of the q. s. S. r.
The Ankara government had
to take notice Of the distrust
! Of the Arab states toward Brit
ain. Hence the Turkish govern
ment has indicated a greater
interest these days in a mutual
assistance pact with the United
States than in joining the
NATO.
The ultimate results would be
the same in the event Of
world. conhagration. But for
psychological reasons the Turks
believe that it would be prefer
able to remain outside the West
ern alliance and have a direct,
formal agreement with the
United States. Our policy-mak-
ers in the State Department are
still bordering this situation and
discussing It with Paris and
London.

Dean Acheson made a brilliant
appearance before the Senate
investigation. as even. his foes
viii admit. He seems to have

porarily. In this connection, it
is significant that the same day
that Mike Kirwan went to the
White House, Senator Joe Nc
Carthy. Republican, of Wiscon-
sin. who started the drum-flre
on the Secretary and the State
Department months ago and
gave Republicans their cue,
turned his vicious tongue on an
other target-Secretary Of De-

When political pigmies start

politics. as Mike Kirwan thinks,
to stand by the giants.
They are not easy to replace.

In many instances the witness
was reluctant to become con-
troversial-to accuse, for ex-
ample, State Department of
ficers in the Far East Of dis
loyalty. He was respectful to
the Joint Chiefs of Staff and said
he deferred to their judgment,
but he also noted that Washing

to give him advice he so desper-
ately needs. He has implicit
confidence In Gen. MacArthur's
fidelity to his orders and to his
superiors. and cannot believe
that the former allied COM
mander would ever do anything
Intentionally to flout those above
him. Indeed. Gen. Wedemeyer
hints that a thorough examina-
ton of the directives and
messages exchanged would be.
necessary to learn just how
the misunde rstandings occurred.
He. didn't think It was wrong
of Gen. Macarthur to write

the Congressman should not
have made the letter public
without asking Gen. Macarthur.

his retirement recently rather
than make q fuss over the mis-
taken views OF the Department
Of State in making Far Eastern

Senator Mccarthy acts as con-
fident and cocky as ever. The
fact that he would even ven
ture to make such an onslaught
shows that he thinks he Is bat
ting 1000 per cent.
Technically his performance
was below par. He didn't seem
to believe in it himself as much
as his advance billing of it had
indicated. When he had read
about a third Of his bulky docu-.
rnent he quit and inserted the
remainder In the record. He
had said he would talk seven
hours, it was less, than three.
Some observers were mean
enough to suggest that perhaps
the speech tired him because
he really wasn't very familiar
with it. as familiar, say. as Mr..

wherever he may be, or to with
draw from Korea and pursue
an alternative course.
The alternative which Gen.
Wedemeyer favored a yearsago,
and believes Is still practicable.
Is to impose. q naval and eco
nonic blockade on China and
sever diplomatic relations with
Russia and the satellite coun-
tries. He would take our
ground troops from Korea and
carry on . punitive war against
Red China by the use of the
Navy and the Air Force. Since
a modern navy is built prima-
rily around the aircraft carrier.
Gen. Wedemeyer is saying, in eff
feet, that attack from the air
can in the long run be effective
in bringing an enemy to SUBJ
mission. He told the committee
he did not believe in commit
ting large bodies of American
troops for action in Korea, be-
cause he thought that there
were other areas strategically
of greater Importance. But he
would carry the Korean war
to a conclusion through the
maximum use Of naval and air
power.
Gen. Wedemeyer. however.
would not place reliance on
just one Observation-Disclosures
force. He made the most elo-
quent and persuasive plea that
any public man has yet made
in favor of psychological war
fare.
The general minced no words

and naval. He refuses to be-

Thomas L. Stokes:

Political parties, as we all
know, have their mavericks.
their rebels. Some are congeni-
tai and perpetual. Others get
that way. periodically. because
of some issue or some party
trend which they resist.
In the latter category just
now is Rep. Michael Joseph
Kirwan Of Ohio. This will come
as shock and requires some
explanation. For Mike Kirwan
not only is one of the most ar
dent of Democrats and party
men, but he also holds the re-
sponsible position of chairman
of the Democratic Congressional
Campaign Committee, in which
his job is to direct the overall
election campaign of his party
for House seats.
What makes Mike q maverick
Just now is what he did this
week.
He merely went down to the
White House to tell President
Truman that he is supporting
him 100 per cent on Secretary
of State Acheson and hopes the
President will keep his Secre-
tary of State, for he thinks that
Dean Acheson is a great Secre-
tarv of State.
The President smiled appreci-
aaively and said he intended to
do just what Mike Kirwan sug-
gested. ~
What made this news and
makes Mike a maverick, at
least temporarily, is that other
Democratic leaders in both
House and Senate have been
going down to the White House
to plead for Mr.. Acheson's re-
moval. They argue that the
Secretary would be a liability
in the 1852 campaign, including
that for members of Conr SIS.
Mike thinks otherwise.
Why" he said in his clipped
way. pitching the words some
what disdainfully out OF the
corner Of his mouth, "lots Of
those fellows will be asking for
Dean Acheson to come into
their districts and speak for
them next year In their cam
paigns."

might prove a slight exaggerra-
ton there, but the episode does
serve to indicate his keen knowI-

on the head; the mouth was q

neck. shoulders and arms were
crude and unbalanced, and bore
little or no resemblance to neck,
shoulders and arms as we know
them.
