Vote Here Put Crinnp in Kefauver
Northern Democratic Leaders Put Sample Demonstration
To Show Tennesseon Lacks Pulling Power Big Cities

Northern Democrats who are
mad at Senator Estes Kefauver
for messing around in their
precincts have put q crimp in
him via the voteless District Of
Columbia primary.
They aimed at a sample dem
onStration that he lacks pulling
power in the big cities whose
minoritieS represent the differ

able asset.
The Governor and Senator of
an important pivotal State stand
ready to launch the Douglas
boom at an appropriate moment
in the balloting. They are only
asking that he not slam the door
in advance.
Should Senator Kefauver not
make it. his substantial bloc of
delegates might well fall almost
intact to Senator Douglas.
Northern Democrats who can at
tack the Tennessean on civil
rights have no argument to use
against Senator Douglas except
that Mr.. Truman doesn't like
him. Some may think also that
he Is too intellectual but that is
difficult to transform into a
political argument against a
homespun man who takes his
shoes of at every opportunity.
OF all the Democrats, Senator
Douglas. an economics teacher
by trade, Is best suited to wage q
campaign against Gen. Eisen-
hover, the would-be liberal who
can't understand why people say
he's conservative. Senator Doug

Eisenhowers Blast Against ScoreTok on Soviet Power

Constantine Brown:

The statement by Gen. Eisen-
hover in Denver last Monday
striking out at scare-talk in this
country about the power Of the
U. S. S. r. caused eyebrows to
be raised not only in political
circles but also among the pro-
fessional military men in the
Pentagon.
No unprejudiced person can
criticize the retired five-star
general for his lack of knowl-
edge of civilian domestic prob
lens. Gen. Eisenhower has
been a soldier all his life and
cannot be expected to learn
overnight about the intricacies
Of farm, fiscal or labor problems.
His willingness to approach
them with an open mind salts
f1es his supporters.
But when it comes to military
matters, the public expects from
him an expert knowledge and
judgment.
Gen. Eisenhower declared:
If we are deserving of our
heritage of freedom, there is no
more reason to fear 100 million
backward people living on the
EuraSian continent than
there is to fear pollywogs swim
ming down a muddy creek"
This statement was made
just "a hours before the Penta-
gon announced that beginning
July IA aircraft spoilers will be
on duty "a hours a day and that
anti-aircraft batteries had been
sent to our main industrial
centers. These moves obviously
were made to prevent a possible
Soviet Pearl Harbor.
Gen. Eisenhower should know
better than anybody else that
the Red armies are no longer
"rabbles in arms" and that the
Red general staff is composed
of men who know their profess
sion as well as any Western
general.

Economic Organization Is Vital
Peace Of World Rests Among Small Groups in European Cities
Those Who Hold Power and Those Determined to Upset 1t

in the internal affairs Of sup
posedly free countries.
America is still an innocent
bystander in Europe, trying to
help-by money and by troops
and by moral support-to estab-
lish strong democracies. But
American policy gives the i'm
preston nevertheless Of being
hesitant and wavering and of
failing to give due weight to the
political currents that arise from
an indestructible nationalism in
every country in Europe. Ideas
like the United States of Eu-
rope" or q federation Of Euro
pean states are very good as OBJ
jectives. but they are and will
be subjected to attacks from
nationalism which will never die.
The dilemma is how to mix
the proper dosage of interna-
tionalism with the proper dos
age of nationalism. Pride of
country, patriotism and a ma
tional spirit are closely akin
to national morale and the will
Of a people to fight. To aban-
don these in a welter of phrases
about q supranational authority
or the Importance of yielding
national sovereignty" is an in
tellectual exercise which ignores
the realism of human nature,
the barriers of language, and
what has made voters in the
past and will make them in the
future embrace Communism or
Fascism or any other "ism" that
gives them a job and shelter.
The standard of living in Eu-
ropean countries is indescriba-
bly, low when compared to the
American standard. There is
much more opportunity for the
demagogue in the so-called free
countries Of Europe than most
Americans can possibly imagine.
for they have not seen the
squalor and poverty of Europe
in postwar era. Americans
might as we'll adjust themselves
to the fact that reconstruction
in Europe is a long. tedious job
which will require American
dollars. American advice. Amer

all, American craftsmanship for

perhaps more. The alternative?

in our minds that our political
system is far superior to that
Of the Communists and we
should not fear the infiltrations
of their doctrines. But insofar
as the military power of the
u. S. S. r. is concerned, there is
ample room to have the greatest
consideration for it's capabilities,
particularly at the present time
when we have adequate sea
power, but are sadly tagging
behind in ground and air forces.
According to all available re-
ports, with which Gen. Eisen-
hover is fully acquainted, the
Soviet armies are far superior
in training and equipment to
those he himself praised so
highly during the last war.
The Russian airmen no longer
fly at tree-top altitude as they
did during the last war. The
Soviet armies are no longer de-
pendent on the tens of millions
of tons Of lend-lease equipment
from the United States.
Our present military predica-
ment which causes uneasiness
throughout the country has
been best explained by Repre-
sentative Henry M. Jackson,
Democrat, of Washington and a
loyal supporter of the admins
tration. Mr.. Jackson, who is a
member Of the Joint Committee
on Atomic Energy, said in a
speech delivered last month:
Here stands America, with the
greatest factories in the world,
the most skilled workers, the
finest laboratories the world has
ever seen. And here stands
Russia. barely one generation in
the industrial age. with a ma
tional output one fourth the
size Of ours and decades behind
us in technical skills. And yet
we lag behind them in terms of
conventional f1repower."

It was only a local shower, Of

riman votes in the District Of
Columbia's first more-or-less-
honeSt-to-goodness Democratic
primary, that swamped Kefau-
yer, but it may have more than
local significance. That was its
obvious intention. The hard
work and shrewd organization
that produced for Hartman a
total vote four times that Of
Kefauver-and about twice the
combined total of Taft and
Eisenhower in the recent Re-
publican primary-waSn't aimed
merely at the six District votes
in the national convention. It
wasn't aimed. unless some Of us
on the sidelines are badly mis-
taken, at making Hartman a
serious contender for the nomi-
nation in his own right. It was
aimed at dousing, once and for
all, the Kefauver candidacy. It
was intended to check the grow
ing conviction that the one
Democrat for whom the most
people would vote, given the
chance, is the Tennessee Sena-
tor.

about the economic and politi-
cal disintegration which will
enable the Communists or their
"left wing" brethren-the ex-
treme Socialists-to get into
power and play ball with Mos
COW. It is amazing to note the
inroads already made among
the Socialists Of Britain, Ger
many, France and Italy by
Communist doctrine. Stain has
only to be patient-if things go
on as they are today. he will
control all Of Europe through
his stooges in all the so-called
free countries. He will keep
the democracies weak and dis
organized. He will keep them
from arming effectively for de-
fense, because he already has
allies in Britain, France, Italy
and Germany who don't want
to rearm for fear of offending
Stain.
But where does the United
States fit into this picture? This
is one of the most tragic aspects
of the whole problem. In
Washington, too. there are two
sets of people-those in the
Government and in Congress,
Republicans and Democrats,
who have tried to help Europe
with economic and military aid,
and those inside and outside the
Government who would scrap
economic and military aid to-
morrow because they think that
course would be politically popu-
lar in America. But along with
these groups is still another seq
ment of opinion - unhappily
growing 1arger-which can't see
what the American policy is ac-
complishing and who glibly refer
to an ungrateful Europe or to
money poured down the rat
hole" This. in turn, causes un-
easiness and apprehension in
Europe and tends to weaken the
governments in power.
This unfamiliarity with the
true situation in Europe situ-
alton that can force a third
world war which America is
committed by the North Atlantic
treaty to enter at once-makes
the question Of United States

to administer. Europeans pri-

IN ROUTE FROM EUROPE,
June 19.-The peace of the
world rests in the hands of small
groups of men in London. Paris,
Berlin and Rome. In each cap
ital the groups consist of two
sets Of influential men-the per-
sons who hold the responsibility
of government and those men
who, by one artifice or another.
demagogic or emotional, ideo-
logical or political, are deter
mined to upset the government
in power.
This is the luxury of democ-
racy-the right to political di-
vision, the right of free speech,
and the right to commit ma
tional suicide.
The answer which dictators
have made-and they may rise
again in Europe to convince the
bewildered and helpless peoples
that democracy is a clumsy and
ineffective institutions not,
however, to abandon democracy
but to organize it. There is
nothing which an organized
democracy cannot do in its own
interest and to preserve its in
dependence. But the problem Is
more difficult because democra-
cies are reluctant to impose
elf-discipline-to set up an
organized economy.
It used to be that dictators
seized the processes by which
public opinion is made-the ra-
dio and the press-and imposed
their will that way. But de-
mocracies today likewise have a
powerful influence with the
press and the radio. What is
lacking today is leadership and
craftsmanship. Too many of
the men who hold governmental
power are neither imaginative
nor bold-they act as if the
problem of government, with
millions of people to govern, can
be solved by high-sounding
speeches and high-brow ora
tions. The policies in London,
Paris, Rome and Berlin have
been of defensive variety, with
all eyes on the maneuvers of q
political opposition. and not
affirmative policies to get at
the economic weaknesses that
make votes for the political op-
position.

Gen. Eisenhower. a man whose
military reputation is world
wide, actually believes that we
need fear Russia no more than
"pollywogS swimming down a
muddy creek" Some of his ad-
viSerS must have suggested to
him that it would be good policy
to make such q statement to
reassure the worried American
electorate.
While American arms have
not met the Russians in combat,
we are having a sad experience
with their inferior satellites in
Korea. Despite the contradic-
tory statements from the spokes-
men of the administration, one
thing is clear enough: In the
Asiatic theater Of operations we
are today at a definite disad-
vantage not only numerically
but also in f1repower and in the
air. Gen. Eisenhower must have
been briefed about conditions in
Korea by his successor, Gen.
Matthew Ridgway, and by his
former colleagues in the Pen
tagon. He. like all other leading
political and military men in
this country. is at a loss to sug-
geSt solution for the Korean
war. And the Chinese polly
Wogs" are Of type inferior to
the Russians.
We do not need to fear the
ultimate result of an armed
conflict with Russia, provided
we do not continue to lag in our
efforts to recreate a military or
ganization similar to that we
had after we started fighting in
the last war. Our trouble Is too
much self-confidence. Even to-
day, when our top generals
worry because they consider the
American continent exposed to
air attack, manufacturers of ra-
dios. television sets, washing
machines etc. are on equal foot
ing in obtaining Vital materials
with the manufacturers of mil
ltary equipment.
