Home Rules New Look

During debate on the home rule bill Senator
Ferguson raised an interesting point that hith-
erto seems to have escaped discussion. The bill
approved by the Senate confers legislative powers
on an elected city council. But it has always
been stoutly contended that Congress reserves
its own supreme legislative authority over the
District. Senator Ferguson showed, however,
that situation could arise in which legislation
originating with the council, might become law
despite its disapproval by majority Of both
houses of Congress.
The council, under the bill, could enact leg
islation, having the effect of law. Congress
could approve legislation repeating the law. But
the President could veto the repeater. II Con-
gress chose to repeal the law over the Presi-
dents veto, such repeal would require two
thirds vote. Failure in Congress to muster the
two-thirds vote could mean that council-ap-
proved legislation took precedence over ma
jority vote in Congress. The Senate did not take
the time to thresh the matter out, but the home
rule bill did take on new look.

a long time, I've concluded that the
persons who fear cats and fuss about
their catching birds aren't so much
concerned about protecting birds as
they are about hating cats.
Usually these persons don't know one
bird from another and certainly can't
identify the different calls, seldom pro-
vide suet and raisins, and I'm sure don't
risk breaking their necks on the ice
to provide drinking water.

Crack Down on the 'Tempos'

gratifying determination to get rid OF
Washington's temporary Government buildings
is developing out of the discussions over dis
persal and decentralization Whether Congress
approves the modified dispersal program recon-
mended by President Truman or the drastic
decentralization plan voted last year by the
Senate, the prospect Of an early start on clear
ing the Mall of unsightly buildings will be
enhanced.
An improvement in the oflce-space situation
lends further encouragement to the restore
the Mall" forces The estimate Of the General
Services Administration last June that additional
space would have to be found for 1S,480 new
Federal employees has proved incorrect, tortu-
nately. Instead, there has been slight falling
off in Government employment figures, largely
because of appropriation riders requiring per-
sonnel reductions. In the meantime, the huge
new General Accounting Odice has absorbed
many employees formerly scattered IN other
buildings owned or rented by the Government.
Further relief would be afforded by the
proposed erection, under the dispersal program,
of four Federal Office buildings in nearby Mary
land and Virginia. These buildings would ac-
commodate some 10000 workers now in WASH
ington. There are more than $4,000 employees
in the "tempoS," most Of which were built Just
prior to or during World War II, but several Of
which date back to World War I. The admins

Appointments of Promise

A. substantial measure of experience and
vitality Is reflected in the group OF appointments
which President Truman has sent to the Senate
for key posts in the Department OF State.
The top selection is that of David X. E.
Bruce, now our Ambassador to France, for the
position of Undersecretary of State, spot
where qualified man can share In great degree
with the Secretary the task of shaping and
applying foreign policy. Mr.. Bruce has the
desired qualifications by virtue OF al long and
varied career in public service and in private
business. His interest in the field Of diplomacy
was first expressed in 1926 when he joined the
foreign service and was posted for part of two
years in Rome. Before that he had served in
the Maryland House of Delegates; later he served
in the Virginia House. He has been an Assistant
Secretary of Commerce and director OF ECA in
France. His service as ambassador has reflected
an understanding of the economic and political
considerations which must be combined In rep
reseAting our country abroad today. There Is
reason to feel sure that these same qualifications
will be applied effectively in his new post.
At the same time it is good to know, and
thoroughly consistent with his high conception
of public duty, that James E. Webb, who is re-
linquishing the assignment of Undersecretary,
will remain not only through the time OF transit
tion but will continue for an indefinite period
to be aValldDle as a COuSuIGduI W tAlc QcpdIV~
ment and for special assignment. No greater
sincerity or conscientiousness could be expected
in public servant than has been demonstrated
by the popular North Carolinian during his ten
wears in Government climaxed by three years
as Budget Director and two more in the highly
demanding job of Undersecretary OF State.
It would seem that the other new appoint
ments have an equally sound quality. John M.
Allison, named as Assistant Secretary for the
Far East, is a career officer who has spent vir-
tualy all of his service in the Pacific -ASiatic
area. He has been the strong right hand to
Ambassador John Foster Dulles in drafting and
negotiating the treaty with Japan and he will
bring to his new job professional understand
ing of the problems involved. Henry A. Byroade
who moves from the post of Director of German
Affairs to that of Assistant Secretary for the
Middle East and South Asia, has shown the
qualities of initiative and imagination which
NAV contribute much to solution of the grow
ing problems which aff1ict that part of the world
and our relationship toward it. Rowland H.
Sargeant scheduled to take over as Assistant
Secretary for Public Affairs, will face reer-
ganized administrative setup in this field, but
as a principal policy maker he will have the
benefit of close working acquaintance with his
sphere of jurisdiction and will be freed OF opera
tional responsibilities which have previously
made the task overly cumbersome and complex

SesouicentenniuI Funds

Your editorial, "SeSqui Questions for
Congress-" recalls that on September z.
1851, in an editorial relating to Faith
of Our Fathers" The Star stated "The
enterprise definitely was worth while.
It reasserted American patriotism at
time when freedom is challenged as
never before" In regard to personnel.
The Star stated, '"They gave themselves
generously to the task of vivifying the
Nation's- faith in the faith which in
spiredithe sponsors OF the Declaration OF
independence and the Constitution OF
the United States When another
production of the same character ana
quality is planned, the experience
gained from last years and this years
efforts will be a helpful factor. In that
respect Faith of Our Fathers remains
ar. active force of high value and sig
niflcance."r sS asa
1t ,gwas this very editorial which
prompted me to urge that Faith OF Our
Fathers" be continued another year, an
even greater and more effective produc-
tive telling of the struggles and triumphs
of Washington, and emphasizing the
story of the beginning of our Nation.
It is true that majority OF the Execu-
tive Committee have voted against con-
tinuance of the play. do not believe
they would have done so had they seen
it. It is to be regretted that while
100 1000 people from all parts of this
country and from many foreign coun-
tries saw Faith Of Our Fathers" and
were profoundly moved and appreciative,
several members Of the Sesquicentennial
Commission did not see the play.
May emphasize that the law passed
by Congress creating the Sesquicenten-
NAL Commission provided that its life
should be continued until December 81,
1852. and also states that the COM
mission may modify such plans when
ever in the discretion of the commits
sion such action is necessary and de-
Sirable"?
When I began as vice chairman, I
found that the commission had in
herited claims approxinating nearly
three quarters of million dollars di-
rected against the United States Gov
ernment, occasioned by the abandon
ment Of the Freedom Fair. In 1851, by
staff work and direction, claims in the
amount OF $632,0oO were settled in
their entirety and that sum has been
saved the Commission in full. There
are still pending claims approximating
$4,000 which are awaiting settlement.
When The Star states that the profit
Of Path of Our Fathers" did not take
into account certain overhead costs,
such statement is not accurate. ADJ
ministrative expenses. including all staff
salaries, having a direct relation to
the play were directly charged as part
of it's costs Furthermore. it should be
borne in mind that it was not my pur-
pose to make a great profit on the play;
it was my purpose to make it possible
for people, especially family and school
groups, to see it. eliminated all charge
for parking, reduced the cost of adj

Madness in the Middle East

The deepening intensity of the Anglo-Egyp-
tian hostilities in the Suez Canal zone is caus-
ing increasingly grave concern In all the capi-
tails of the free world. Only in Moscow and the
Communist satellite councils can it be looked
upon with approval.
It is difficult from this point to make an
exact determination as to which side is the
principal aggressor in the actual fighting. In
sense it is relatively unimportant to make such
determination; what is vitality important is to
find means by which it can be stopped be-
fore the piling Of violence upon violence SO en-
traps both parties that they are committed to
formalized warfare. 1t is impossible to see how
such development could be contained even in
the degree that the Korean conflict has been
contained. 1t is much more dangerously likely
that the flowing tide of hostilitieS in the Suez
would be joined with the other flowing tide OF
violence in Tunisia, that the whole Southern and
Eastern Mediterranean world would become
great battlefield.
The time is long past when the nationalist
aspirations of the less powerful nations can be
subdued by force of arms. Even Prime Minister
ChurchilPs admission before the American Con-
gress that "Britains power to influence the for
tunes of the Middle East :. is far less today
now that we have laid aside our imperial re-
sponsibility for India and its armies" was a mis-
leading understatement. With all the power
that Britain ever had it could not successfully
and indefinitely in the goth century atmosphere
enforce an influence upon sovereign people
which they do not desire. Nor, for that matter,
could any combination of the great powers II
that were to be attempted.
But surely there is reservoir of statesman
ship existent among the Western nations and
among those of the Middle East that can yield
some formula other than war for the resolution
Of these differences. The device Of negotiation
may be undramatic but it is bloodless If neither
OF the two principals in this bitter dispute is in
q position today to initiate negotiation efforts
some other power or combination Of powers
should undertake vigorously to provide stage
for mediation. -.
One such attempt was made only few days
ago when the Saudi Arabian government pro-
posed an agenda for mediation, an action Incl
dentally that reflects the hopes of the Arab
world that the dispute may be resolved by some
means short of war. It is the duty of both of
the principal governments to study the proposal
seriously.
There is abundant evidence that the Egyp-
tian government is not following it's present
course because it is anti-Western even though
there have been street demonstrations in that
tone. There is no evidence that it is pro-Com-
munist, and indeed any student of the Arab
world knows that communism and Russian i'm
perialism are equally objects of fear and distaste
to Islam It would be madness unacceptable
to belief for Egypt deliberately to force con-
dition of formal warfare with Britain; 1t is
equally mad for Britain and the Western world
to allow such thing to happen
