with it's own people, has been
rejected by the State Depart

action would only increase world
tension without bringing about
the release of the American VIC

We must abide, it is said in Of

of the United Nations Charter
and rely on its efficacy to settle
even such fragrant disregard Of
international law and justice.
The Oats case was trumped
up by the secret police. In this
country whenever the FBI has
caught Soviet and other spies
red handed and arrested them
they have been freed and ex-
PEELED from the country either
before their cases came before

The truth. of course, is that
Gen. Eisenhower doesn't aspire
to the presidency, doesn't want
to become an active candidate
and would prefer to be let alone.
But, on the other hand, he is
too good an American not to
respond to a call of duty. But
a call of duty" can hardly be
construed to be an active can
didacy before the convention.
In this lies both the strength
and weakness of Gen. Eisen-
hover as a presidential nomi-
nee. Because he can't make
an active race and be consistent
with his previous statements,
organization Republicans will
shy away from him and prefer
some one who would make a
Slam-bang campaign on the
stump. 1t will be harder for
Gen. Eisenhower to get the Re
publican presidential nominal
ton than it will be for him to
win if he is the nominee of
the convention.
What a candidate normally is
expected to do. whether he con-
ducts a dignif1ed campaign of
a few speeches or a whistle
stop" tour. is to deal thoroughly
with domestic as we'll as for
eign-policy issues. Political OBJ
servers just can't imagine the
General even after he doffs his
uniform engaging in the kind
of attacks against the Truman
administrations foreign and
domestic policies which some
other candidate without inhibi-
ton might wage against the
Democratic administration.
Actually there is more logic
In making Gen. Eisenhower the
Democratic party nominee. He

David Lawrence:
Gen. Eisenhower came home

Gen. Eisenhower came home
undoubtedly to have a heart
to-heart talk with President
Truman-not on politics, but
on the plan which the COM
mander in chief may have in
mind as to how long the pres
ent supreme commander in Eu-
rope is to remain there before
being relieved.
Either Gen. Bradley or Gen.
Ridgway may be the successor
if there is to be one. Will the
President ask the general to
stay on indefinitely? It's a hard
decision to make because re-
turning members of a Senate
committee have said frankly
that so per cent of the restored
morale in Europe recently has
been due to the Eisenhower
personality and, by inference,
that it would be a mistake to
withdraw that influence at this
time or at any time in the near
future.
If Mr.. Truman tells the gen.
eral he should stay on, will it
be interpreted as a step by a
possible Democratic presiden-
tial nominee against a possible
Republican nominee? Mr.. Tru-
man is the kind of a political
warrior who would not tie up
the general by any unfair tao
tic. Instead he is more likely
to leave it to Gen. Eisenhower
himself to decide because he
alone can tell if the Allied COM
mand is far enough along to
make a change.
But no matter whether a sin
gle word Of politics is discussed
at the Truman Eisenhower
meeting, political consequences
are bound to follow.

Washington is used to doing

The private meal between Pres

1t is not beyond belief that
Gen. Eisenhower will rise from
the table with about as tough
a problem as any man in his
position could have to wrestle
with. It is almost certainly in
the power Of President Truman
to offer the general the Demo-
cratic nomination for the presi-
dency. The general, if the
President so willed, could have
it by reclamation in Chicago

Thomas L. Stokes:

When Senator Harry F. Byrd,
Democrat, of Virginia, went to
Selma, Ala, recently he de-
livered powerful blast at Presi-
dent Truman and all his works,
but tactfully avoided any back
room conferences with fellow
Southern dissenters who had
gathered, mostly from Alabama,
to talk about what the South
should do in 1852.
Thus fizzled out what had
been advertised some time ago
as the opening of new South
ern secession movement-peace-
full of course and without bene-
fit of guns from Fort Sumter.
The reason was explained very
frankly by the Senator, himself,
who said it would be unrealis-
tic at this time for any of us to
chart precisely the 1852 course"
It was put in a more folksy, If
not highly original, way by Gov.
Herman Talmadge of neighbour
ing Georgia, who was on hand
for the Byrd speaking" Agree
ing that it's too early yet, he
added, II want to see the whites
of their eyes before I fire"
What is holding up the South

going on behind the whites
of the eyes of two other fellows

by Harry Truman, himself. and
by Gen. Eisenhower. who are
meeting here today for confer
ences on the generals Euro

meeting Of the two attracted
public attention for possible
clues as to the 1852 intentions
of each. and intensified drum
beating on Gen. EisenhoWer'S
behalf by Republicans who are
trying to get him to head their
ticket.
If Harry Truman withdraws
and does not seek denomination,
that would remove the real
target of Southern revolt, a
symbol of bitterness which OBJ
viously is both deep and wide
spread, and undoubtedly would
debate the rebellion in that
normally Democratic strong
hold.
It would certainly cause a re-
appraisal of plans and strategy.
with a final decision depending
upon the results of the 1852 Chi

platform, the latter devolving
principally on the emphasis
placed on civil rights. Mr.. Tru-
mans remuneration and retire

would give the South more infiu-

might bring some pacifying ges-
lures. These might include q

century ago the Barbary pirates
demanded tribute from America
for the immunity of our mer-
chantmen in the Mediterranean.
Our answer was the sending
Of Stephen Decatur with an
American naval squadron which
taught an unforgettable lesson
to those pirates. Modern piracy
apparently cannot be handled in
the same manner.
Our Government is reluctant
to take any strong steps lest we
be described as "aggressors and
imperialists"-two favorite ex-
pressions used by all Communist
governments when they want to
cover up their own miSdeeds.

the United Nations Assembly
which meets this week in Paris
