Chairman Of
|UCS Recreation
Executive Committee
Member Gets Scroll
For Leadership

the Junior Chamber of Commerce.
yesterday was elected chairman Of
the Recreation and Group Work
Section of United Community
Services.
Mr.. Deming was named to the
post at the annual luncheon meet
ing of the section in the YWCA,
Seventeenth and K streets NV.
He is vice president of the Federal
Storage Co. Last year he was vice
chairman of the section and
member of the Executive Com
mittee.
Mrs. Daniel Culhane was named
vice chairman. A member at large,
she is on the Settlement House
Study Committee.
Trustees Elected.
Elected to represent the section
on the UCS Board of Trustees
were Mr.. Aileen Shae Zahn, execu-
tive director of the Christ Child
Society and Settlement House, and
Laurence F. Hunt, executive di-
rector of the Twelfth Street YMCA.
Named to the sections Execu-
tive Committee were Milo F..
Christensen, District superintend-
ent of recreation; Fred D. Carl,
Mrs. Sarah S. Dunn, Ernest S.
Jenkyns and Duane M. Paul. They
will serve two-year terms. Frank

leadership" and expressed appre-
citation of his generous expendi-
ture of personal time and energy"
UCS Director Speaks.
Arthur H. Kruse, executive di-
rector Of UCS, urged the section
to continue "as a place in the
community where representatives
of all walks of life who differ in
every way are working together
for the youth of the community.
This" he said, sis unique and
restricted to a democratic society"
In a report, Mr.. Paul set forth
these plans Of the section in the
coming year:
/. Complete a study of services
for girls and plan to carry out
recommendations.
2. Complete review of settle
ment house study reports, pre-.
pare findings and recommends
tions and work out plans for fol-
low-up on implementation.
3. Begin study of summer
camps in the area. The project
is authorized, but other work has
taken priority. Evidence points
to a need for more camping for
teen-agers on a part-pay and
campership basis. Also, better CO.
ordination of the whole camping
program appears desirable.
4. Initiate a study of boy MEM
bership in youth-serving organ
izations. 1t is uncertain what
parts of the boy population are
now being served by various pro-
grams.

Areas
Predicts Purt-Time
Glasses Unless More
Money Is Provided

OCIlOOl OupC. 1ODarC M. Cor
ming said today there were six ''hot
spots" in the school system where
increasing enrollments were get
ting ahead of the school construc-
ton program.
Part-time classes are inevitable
unless we get money to build more
schools" DR.. Corning said in his
weekly press conference. Exact
ly when the part-time classes will
become necessary is hard to say"
DR.. Corning pointed out that
the possibility of part-time classes
did not tell the whole story. Just
as serious, he said, are the over
crowded classes which are on the
verge of part-time operation.
He reiterated his stand that
next years school budget-with
construction slashed from $12 mil
lion to 81 million-would not solve
any of the problems of overcrowd-
ing. Borrowing money from the
Federal Government seems the
only way out, he added.
Lists Trouble Spots.
He listed the trouble spots as
follows:
All the junior high schools used
by colored pupils are overcrowded.
Even if the Eliot Junior High
School is transferred from white
to colored pupils, a step being
considered now by the Board of
Education. the overcrowding may
remain serious.
The expanding population of
Southeast Washington, east of the
Anacostia River, will seriously
overcrowd the three white ele-
|mentary schools there soon. The
still unpassed next-year's budget
has money for construction of a
new grade school at Ninth and
Barnaby streets Sc. If built, this
school will ease the problem.
Colored elementary schools in
Southwest Washington are over
crowded seriously. This can be
eased by the proposed transfer
Of Fairbrother Elementary School
from white to colored pupils.
Colored elementary schools in
downtown Northwest Washington
are overcrowded. When the new
Terrell Junior High School is
completed, use of the old Terrell
as a grade school will help. This
proposal also is before the School
Board.
Addition Would Help.
The area of the Keene anc
Rudolph Elementary Schools will
be helped by the addition now be-
ing constructed at Keene, Rock
Creek Church and Riggs roads NE
It will not be completed until next
February, and overcrowding exists
now.
If the colored population con-
tinueS increasing in the area OF
the Payne Elementary School, Fiji
teenth and C streets Sc, the ad-
dition to Payne will not handle
the overcrowding. This addition
also is expected to be completed
in February.
Yesterday DR.. Corning testified
on Capitol Hill in favor of Fed
eral aid to school construction
He said this would not solve the
Districts problems by any means
but that every dollar put toward
school construction would help.

More Realistic View Expected
Esenhowes and Dulles Appoisos of International Situation
Appear Certain to Change Policies Toward Moscow
Constantine Brown:

Between now and January 20,
President-elect Eisenhower and
his future Secretary of State.
John Foster Dulles, will continue
their stock taking Of the inter-
national situation.
It is expected that they will
break away from the past policy
Of giving priority to the inten-
tions of the Kremlin and will
consider its capabilities with the
utmost realism.
The Muscovites have adopted
an offensive diplomatic atti-
tude. But they can just as cas-
lily change overnight and adopt
deception to lull us into a feel
ing of security.
Such move might seem wise
to the men in the Kremlin if
the new administration in
Washington appeared bent on a
firm policy. They might feel
a deceptive policy would create
a greater gulf between the
United States and its Western
European allies.
Asia occupies the number one
position in the new administra-
tion's foreign policies regardless
Of the sentiments of the other
members Of the Western coali-
ton. But Europe and the Mid
die East offer even greater
problems than the Far East.
We know that the Muscovites
have organized a strong East
German armed force. 1t is COM
posed of about 10 combat-ready
ground divisions. equipped with
the latest weapons which the
u. s. S. r. and satellites are now
producing; small but effective
air force and an equally effective
navy provided with speedy small
boats and short-range subma-
rines. Apparently. the Red high
command does not trust its East
German puppets with its latest
long-range submarines.
This East German force could
spearhead an offensive against
the NATO armies which have
not been increased to any sub
stantial degree in the last IL
months. Moreover. the Russians
are preparing requirements and
reserves for the revived former
Natzi forces in Hitler's pattern.
Youth organizations have sprung
up all over East Germany and
are given an intense basic mil
itary training.
The logical antidote for this
significant preparation in East
Germany would be the organi-
zation of a similar force in West
Germany. But We are only talk
ing about it and seem satisfied
with beautifully drawn blue
prints. The Western coalition
has already wasted precious
time.

Doris FIeeson::

It comes as no surprise to
Washington that Gen. Eisen-
hover was impressed with Ad-
miral Arthur w. Radford.
Commander of the Pacific Fleet.
Admiral Radford is widely
known and admired here; had
he not been intimately in
volved in the bitter Mayfair
Force feud three years ago he
would probably be Chief of
Naval Operations today.
Just before taking of from
Pearl Harbor, the President
elect told Admiral Radford that
I'VE may be sending for you
again to talk over some Of the
things we have discussed"
Admiral Radford and his
headquarters lie in the path Of
the long journey to Korea which
so many students of the situa-
ton have taken. including poll
ticians and the press. In a
general way it is therefore
possible to suggest some of their
views about it.
Almost certainly a blockade
of the Chinese coast was
described to General Eisenhower
as within the Navy's immediate
capabilities. The Navy is Of
course present in the Pacific in
force, neutralizing FormoSa,
guarding the approaches to
Korea and patrolling japanese
waters.
Evening star., 1952-12-15

The argument set forth at
Pearl Harbor is that the Chinese
Communists are fighting "for
free" in Korea in the sense that
their homeland is not being
molested and that the Navy can
do quite a lot about it with a
maximum of f1exibility and
minimum of risk. Such inter-
ference with trade. it is pointed
out, does not involve bombing
civilians or bringing U. s. might
to bear upon people directly,
yet it is condign and severe
punishment.
AS the State Department can
be relied upon to point out in
answer, it would also bring
United States policy into con-
flict with the British whose
Hong Kong trade is still open.
still vital to that economically
besieegd ally. Politically, how
ever, the expanded use Of the
Navy already on the scene has
obvious appeal.
All other methods Of expand
ing the war mean much more
United States arms, equipment
and above all. more manpower
to take the risks of front line
combat either on the ground or
in the air. It is that manpower
which is most on the mind Of
the American people, sending
them to the polls to vote for the

of Paris and Bonn last May.
most Of our allies, including
Germany herself, are still dis
cussing them. Political squabbles,
old jealousies and Frances fear
of Germany have all contributed
to this delay. It is likely that
if or our allies do not act be-
fore summer the plans to pro-
vide the Western coalition with
an effective and virile Ger
man army may have to be
abandoned.
Gen. Eisenhower. who IA
thered the idea Of including
the West Germans in the West
ern coalition. probably is more
aware than anybody else of the
immediate necessity of translat-
ing the blueprints made under
his supervision into a factual
military force. He is expected
to prod our allies after he be-
comes President. How success
full he will be is difficult to fore
cast.
The next few months may
find the French and possibly
ourselves and the British with
a difficult situation in North
Africa and the Middle East.
There is every indication that
the French troubles in Tunisia
and Morocco will be increased
and France. pursuing her pres
ent policy toward the two pro-
tectorates. may have to send
larger forces across the Med
iterranean.
There is an equally strong

and Turkey; the Marshall Plan:
the North Atlantic Treaty and
the NATO implementing it
to which he appointed General
Eisenhower as administrator
and. finally. the Korean decision
that was so hailed in this coun-
try when it was made. The last
is the capstone. AS once was
said of another, 1t is engraved
on his heart.
When he spoke out it was
understandable. AS he sees it,
so much is at stake. He was
alerting our people and those
who are to govern after him
that what was won with Korea
must be preserved. and that it
must not be lost through the
playing of politics, through a
show of fear, or through a faded
hero locking for headlines.

under emphasized in the Tru-
man Macarthur Eisenhower
triangle. That is the particular
subject motivating the Presi-
dents criticism. And it might
be interjected here by an eye
witness that the Presidents
manner was neither angry nor
impulsive, but matter-of-fact
and in unimpasSioned tones. He
knew exactly what he was doing
and why.
The why goes to the subject
Korea.
President Truman feels very
deeply about that. It is very
close to his heart and his in
most convictions, as this re-
porter wrote from the Truman
special train during the cam
paign when the President be-
gan to criticize Gen. EiSen-
hover. Mr.. Truman regards his
decision to take stand in
Korea at the first challenge OF
Communist armed aggression
as the most important of his
presidency. It now is generally
realized that the issue was just
as he saw it when he acted
the saving of collective security
under the United Nations and
the saving. consequently. Of the
u: N, itself.
In short, Korea was 'it" and
the President recognized that.
He was iet-down and sick at
heart when Gen. Eisenhower.
who recognized that also as the
President well knew, began to
shadow-box about Korea early
in the campaign, raising doubts
by Stressing the sacrifices, by
declaiming about the "bungling"
in policy that had preceded it.
though he, as the President
pointed out later. had an infiu-
ence in that policy as Army
Chief of staff. Gen. Eisenhower's
cue was taken up in campaign
propaganda which. for sheer
and hypocritical false innuendo.
