Foreign diplomats in Wash

call on the President-elect and
place before him in o prelimi-
nary manner the problems to
be faced soon after Inaugural
ton day.
The Western European ma
tions which are members Of the
NATO are anxious to find out
what the new administration in
tends to do about increasing
American contributions to their
defense expenditures.
The conservative government
Of France. headed by Premier
Antoine Pinay. already has
served notice that Frances bud
get cannot stand any increase to
create the number Of new di-
visions she pledged herself to
produce at the Lisbon confer
ence last year.
M. Plnay, realizing the oppo-
sition which confronts him in
the National Assembly in the
matter of Germany becoming
an active partner in the Euro
pean Defense Community, wishes
to increase the number Of
French combat divisions above
Frances original commitments.
But he feels that the United
States must finance this prof.
ect by adding many hundreds
Of millions Of dollars to Frances
budget.
M. Pinay has pointed out that
the war in Indo-C China costs
the French taxpayer no less
than 81 billion a year and he
claims that the French tax COL
lectors cannot get increased
amounts from the French tax
payers to pay the cost of a
substantially increased ground
force.
The French government also
considers that our present con-
tribution Of $500 million in war
materials for the military forces
in Indo- China is far of the
mark. Moreover the Paris gov
ernment already has indicated

This would afford q con-
genial way Of life for Mr.. Tru-
man.
It is something that the Ma
ton could very properly do,
and should do. for those who
have served it in what is today
perhaps the most trying and
exacting Office Of its kind any
where in the world. It is only
just that the Nation should pro-
vide security for its Chief Ex-
ecutives to whom it owes SO
great a debt. thus placing them
where the Nation could con-
tinue to benefit from their ex-
perience in Government, rather
than have them seek employ
ment in fields unfamiliar to
them and not adapted to their
training and talents. Very few
OF our Presidents have been men
OF substantial means, nor is
Harry Truman.
Now would be an ideal time
to authorize this form of con-
tinued public service for our
ex-Presidents. After January 20.
there will be one in each party.
Herbert Hoover also would be-
come available in this ex-officio
capacity to advise and counsel
his party and the Nation as he
has been doing for some years
In his capacity as a private
citizen.
Whatever President Truman
may do in the way of perma-
nent occupation. he also has a
couple OF dreams. as they might
be called. which could absorb
part OF his time, interest and
attention. One Is In the process
Of realization.
That is the Truman Library
and research project for which
the President has donated 40
acres Of his farm outside of In
dependence, Mo. Here, in q
building for which architects
plans already are drawn, would
be stored official papers and
records and memorabilia of his
administration. His hope is for
this to become q center for re-
search into the Truman era,
. available to students Of Ameri-
can history. The project, as he
envisages it ultimately, also
would include dormitories where
undergraduate and graduate
students in history could be
housed and fed cheaply while
engaged In their studies.

An ArtificioIity About It All
American People Now Should Unite Behind New Leader
Yet How Can One Forget Lie Merely to Win Votes?
Dovid Lowrence:

This is the time when the
thing to say is that the people
should forget their differences
and unite behind a new leader.
This is the time when the
loser. with tongue in cheek, con-
graduates the winner and wishes
him luck.
This is the time when the
people are told to eschew bit
terness and start working to-
gether for the common cause"
But somehow there is an
artif1ciality about it which
many persons know in their
hearts is a species Of insincer-
ity and hypocrisy.
For how can any one forget q
lie. a distortion of truth, a base
less accusation launched merely
to get votes?
How does one forget the act
OF a President Of the United
States who violates the security
rules of his own Government
and gives out a secret document
just because he thinks it will
help his side politically?
How does one overlook those
who profess high principle and
denounce others for alleged
misdeedS or "smears," when
they themselves keep up a
steady flow Of innuendo with
accusations Of implied dis
honesty against a candidate
Just because he doesn't choose
to respond to their demands for
information on his private af-
fairs after he has stated pub7
licly that he has made full dis
closure?
How does one ignore the fact
that men Of education, men Of
learning, men who teach in our
colleges, issue statements during
a campaign full Of misrepresen-
tations designed to win votes.
and yet are the first to de-
nounce the politicians who-on
the altar Of expediency-sur-
render their convictions to get
votes?
