the important top-level conver-
sations between President Tru-
man and Prime Minister
Churchill have dWarfed the re-
ports of the really critical situ-
alton in Korea and Southeast
Asia.
AL the important concessions
made by our truce delegates to
the Communists at Pann1unjom
have made no impression on the
Reds. Their arrogant and un-
yielding attitude is unquestion-
ably prompted by Moscow.
Since last June when the
Soviet representative at the
United Nations, Jacob Malik,
advanced his ideas for q truce
which we accepted so eagerly
and without carefully examining
the traps which he was laying
for us, the Chinese Communists
have built up their military and
especially their air strength.
After six months of tedious
negotiations they can now boast
Of having at least parity if not
superiority over us in the air.
This situation causes consider

ing no timidity whatever, he has
made an engagement to see
President Truman at the White
House next Tuesday to talk
about the Kefauver- for -Presi-
dent movement. He is seeking a
show of the Presidents hand.
That was tried few days ago
on the Senator's behalf by
Representative, Wayne L. Hays
who. after talk with the Presi-
dent, now is going ahead to enter
an entire slate of delegates for
Senator Kefauver in the Ohio
Democratic presidential primary.
He got the impression in his
conference with the President
that Mr.. Truman would an
nounce his intentions fairly soon.
There's one element of the
Democratic Party-or used to be

reports no noticeable pain
from the Eisenhower candidacy,
rather the contrary. That's the
Dixiecrats. They feel the general

emily believes that his hench-
men In Korea have sufficient
military advantage over us to
make the continuation of the
police action" extremely costly
and dangerous to us. Last July
when the negotiations started
we still had a definite air supe-
riority over the enemy, who had
also suffered severe losses in
the field. Now he has caught his
breath again and is ready to
resume military operations.
The situation is made worse
by the fact that the Commu-
nists in Indo-C China backed by
important Chinese contingents
are prepared to start an often

near future. The situation in
that area is so threatening that
Gen. Alphonse Pierre JUN, the
commander of the NATO
ground forces under Gen. Eisen-
hover. is making a flying trip
to Washington to participate in
staff conversations with Amer
ican and British officers to
thrash out the situation in
Southeast Asia. Their evalua-
tions will be taken up at a high
political level when Mr.. Church
i'll returns to Washington next
week for final discussions with
President Truman.
There are increasing indica-
tions that the French and Brit
ish are no longer willing to
treat lightly the situation in
that area of the Far East. But
they admittedly can do little
by themselves should the Chi
nese Communists and the Red
aviation support effectively the
native forces which have been
operating against the regular
British and French armies for
the last five years.
The position of our Allies
can be summed up as follows:
Either the United States agrees
to participate effectively in
Southeast Asia or the British

be forced to find a solution by

Congress doesn't know where
1t is going in legislative affairs
and neither does anybody
else here on the top-level side
of Government. Despite the i'm
pressive that a lot of legislative
policies Of domestic Importance
are in the making, the fact re-
mains that Joseph Stain and
his Politburo are about the only
persons in the world who know
what the United States and her
allies are going to be up against
in 1852.
The Communist propaganda
technique is being worked over
time. The Moscow Zine" ex-
pressed through Vishinsky at
Paris, is that the armament
boom in the United States has to
continue in order to bolster the
American economy and that
the Korean talks are begged
down because America does not
want to face the economic con-
sequences of an armistice in the
Far East.
The effort of Vishinsky to
muddy the waters by seeking to
transfer the Korean truce talks
from Korea to the Security Coun-
Gil in Paris, where Russia can
mess up the whole international
situation still more, is fully un-
derStood here and by the Amer
lean delegation to the United
Nations in Paris. But there
seems to be no counter-strategy
except to try to defeat such
resolution in the u. N. and wait
week by week to see what the
Russians will do.
Meanwhile, President Truman
and Prime Minister Churchill
and their staff are discussing
defenses against a possible new
war Of aggression in Southeast
Asia. There are rumors of new
steps by the Communists to
harass Formosa.

dealing directly with Moscow.
The Kremlin holds out the hope
to our European friends that
the whole matter could be set
tied amicably If only the Pei
ping government were admitted
to the United Nations and For
mosa handed over to the Chi
nese Communists.
Our Government is in q pre-
dicament in this matter since
American public opinion and
the vast majority of Congress
are firmly opposed to this ap-
peasement. This opposition is
not emotional or calculated to
embarrass the administration.
1t is on the conviction that
CD Formosa is the strategic
keystone Of the defense of the
Pacific, and (2) even If We
yielded on this matter the Com
munists would not cease their
drive to establish themselves
firmly in that area and con-
tinue their operation against
the United States with a much
greater advantage.
Some of the legislators who
have returned recently from
the Pacific are convinced that
any further yielding to Moscow
or any policy which may give
the Asiatics the impression
that America is weak and "ap-
peasing" would unquestionably
place Japan in Stalin's column.
All our efforts to revive Japan
as a democratic power friendly
to us in the Pacific would thus
have been wasted.
The Japanese people are by
and large favorable to the
United States. Any loss Of
face, however, would give the
Communists and their associ-
ates in the islands a chance to
overthrow the present demo-
cratic regime and join the ranks
OF Moscow's satellites. This Is
the situation which faces our
policy makers who will be COM
PEELED before long to make some
dramatic decisions.

Aging MongreI Gets
$50 Monthly From

Judge Harold Jacoby has ap-

May and left $41,978.

Mr.. Chilengirian, veteran en-

self. That was said also several
weeks ago by one of the generals
strong Midwestern supporters,
Gov. Val Peterson of Nebraska
who at the governors conference
at Gatlinburg. Tenn, fixed a
statement Of principles as one
condition to be met. The other
was a declaration Of candidacy
by January /, a condition now
fulfilled only a few days after
the Peterson deadline.
Demands for statement of
views from the general obviously
can not be acceded to. Instead,
campaigners must satisfy in
quirers with what he has said
hitherto in speeches, which is
available. without any freshen-
ing UP to inspire and energize.
Senator Taft's thoughts, nat
urally, will continue to be an
open book and his every act a
public record. That runs into
volumes already.
Among regular Democratic or
ganization leaders, the effect
of the Eisenhower candidacy,
though generally expected, has,
been disquieting to put it mildly.
AS a result. they are getting
more restive for President Tru-
man, himself, to speak out and
say what are his own intentions.
This, it is being said, he owes
to the party. They rate the
general a very formidable candi-
date and say that, if the Presi-
dent does not intend to run
himself, then the party should
know so that it can buckle down
to the task-no easy one-of
picking a candidate. The Eisen-
hover entry now makes that all
the more urgent, they contend.
Fresh reports to party leaders
at the Capitol, and fresh evi-
dence accumulating in other
directions, convince party lead
ers that the President intends to
step down and not seek another
term.

word has held back aspirants for

fenced a politician to trifie very
much with human vanity in
these matters.
The indicated trend is not 60
ing to surprise many Democrats.
There is an air Of change in
Washington, freshened and
strengthened by the Eisenhower
developments. A few straws in
the wind noted by politicians
include:
Mr.. Truman's admiration for
Gen. Eisenhower. He would, they
said, feel he had to save the
country from Senator Taft but
would expect that his architec-
ture for peace would be in the
main preserved by the General.
Mr.. Truman's failure to act
decisively to clean UP the tax
scandals. Were he to be the
candidate. they say, he would
feel strongly impelled to protect
himself from the charge of
lethargy.
Mr.. Truman'S refusal to adopt
suggestions for public previews
of the remodelled White House
including the Truman living
quarters. He curtly said no, the
public tours of the downstairs
would start again as usual, but
nothing more.
There are others and. the sum
is a very firm impression indeed.
Chairman Mckinney says in
nocently that he Is merely i'm
provising until the President
makes up his mind. He admits
that he plans to suggest the ia
vorite son techniques elsewhere.
He is not changing many
minds here, however, on the

The formal entry Of Gen.
Eisenhower into the Republican
presidential nomination contest.
which has at the same time
clarified the generals position
and confused the party Situa-
ton, likewise has created it's
disturbance among Democrats
despite an outward show Of calm
and equanimity.
Republican promoters of the
Eisenhower candidacy, just
breathing freely after the
perspiring job Of hosting the
general into the race, already
are being plagued with what
promises to be another obsta-
Gle, even though they can do
little about it. This Is the de-
mand now rising that the bare
bones of the generals can
d1dacy-the mere notation that
he is a Republican and is will
ing to be drafted-be clothed
with flesh in the form of some
enunciation of what he stands
for, that is, his platform"
The general, Of course, can
not comply under Army regula-
tions-but that doesn't stop the
demands, and won't.
Some Republicans. Of course,
have no kindly intent toward
the generals candidacy. They
are from the camp of Senator
Taft and other opponents. These
are going to find it hard to argue
with a sphinx sitting aloof in
Paris behind his uniform, and
to swap blows with legend, so
to speak; though, strategically,
this is an ideal circumstance for
the general, who could open
himself up to trouble If drawn
into an argument over issues.
There are. however. some
among staunch Eisenhower sup
porters who think the party and
the people generally should have
some sort of an outline Of his
views, among them, for instance,
Senator Wayne Morse, Republi-
can, Of Oregon, the first Senator

world tension increasing instead

questions can be considered as

The entire attitude OF the
United States and Great Britain
is defensive. It is based on the
idea of meeting the offensive
moves by the Communists as
they arise. and apparently TO
effort is being made to bother
the Communists in their own
backyard, as has been advocated
so many times by various groups.
especially those who have es-
capped or have been exiled from
Iron Curtain countries.
The sad part of the story is
that Congress, even in its inn
portant committees, has no in
formation to steer by and nei-
ther have the military service
chiefs, because the State De-
partment does not know what's
coming and the so-called intel
ligence reports from abroad
cannot do more than speculate
as to Russian intentions.
It is a drifting, aimless at
mosphere, with ominous clouds
on the horizon. that prevails as
Congress has opened for its 1852
