way an Ambassador ought to
be for his own country's sake.
The WarrenS have a mild
protocol problem here. For
Americans and Canadians, the
Chinese Nationalist Ambassa-
dor is the dean; for all others.
the Russian Ambassador. His
solution: rigid correctness.
United States economic aid
to Turkey will always be the
Marshall Plan here no matter
how you alphabetize it. It has
done much for the Turks, their
farms. roads, industry, people.
It is currently under the di-
rection of Lee Dayton, an
American Red Cross veteran
who lately directed economic
aid to Italy.
Like the military, Dayton
has found here a show-me
state. Once shown, however,
he says, Turks often won't let
you finish the demonstration
but want to plunge right in
with the changes you are illus
trating.
The government buys the
peasants wheat at a price
higher than the world market
and lets it go at a loss, which
has a familiar sound. 1t is
Dayton's belief that animal
husbandry is a field that mod
ern Turkish agriculture can
make it's own and be self-sup-
porting.

ANKARA, Turkey, Oct. s.
The Turks got a little nervous
lately when the United States
offered aid to Iran. They can
see all around them how
United States help, military
and economic, has speeded
their ardently desired West
ernization at a rate they can
not approach alone.
How the Iran move would
affect Turkey was the first
question put to the new AM
bassador, Avra Warren, who
replied automatically that
each nation stands by itself in
United States planning. This
gave ground for hope, but the
Turks are much too practical
not to recognize the facts of a
nations fiscal life.
The Turks already are alert
to the Middle East moves of
Secretary of State Dulles and
hope that his realism with re-
spect to the Arab states ap-
proaches theirs.
For it is important to re-
member in weighing Turkeys
position in this third year of
NATO planning that she has
steadily refused to join in an
Asian front for or against the
West. When her great leader,
Kemal Ataturk, decided to re-
store the then sick man of
Europe to health, he wrenched

Behind the Durkin Controversy
Labor Leaders, Claim That Eisenhower Broke On Agre
Is Called False, and q Public Apology Is Demanded

after it's text had been pub
lished and after various criti-
cisms of it's contents had
reached the President.
Fact number seven: Mr..
Durkin was closeted with the
President alone in New York
City for only about ten to
fifteen minutes and there OBJ
viously was no time for a de-
tailed discussion of the 10
amendments but only for some
general ideas.
Fact number eight: Gen.
Eisenhower assumed that Mr..
Durkin knew that of course,
after the amendments had
been fully studied by his as
sociates and brought to him
in final form the administra-
ton would naturally submit
it to Congress. To this day,
however, these studies and dis
cussions have not been COM
pleted. There surely will be
a message sent to the next ses-
sion of Congress embodying
the Administrators views on
the Taft-Hartley Act.
Fact number nine: Vice
President Nixon familiarized
himself with all the facts con-
corning the resignation of Mr..
Durkin and told the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor con-
vention that there had been a
misunderstanding" This was
intended to be a tactful way
of preventing the spread of
any accusation that the Presi-
dent was questioning the good
faith of Mr.. Durkin.
Fact number 10: Mr.. Durkin
favored the draft of the mes
sage" and wanted the admin
istration to approve all 10 of
the proposed amendments but
the leaders of the AFL and the
CIO now say they repudiate
these same proposals as in
adequate and unsatisfactory.
From the above set of facts
it is plain that Messrs. George
Meany and Walter Reuther,
presidents of the AFL and CIO
respectively, and the AFL in
it's weekly publication have
deliberately for purposes of
politics or legislative strategy
impugned the good faith of the
President of the United States
by accusing him of breaking
an agreement and hence
now owe him a public apology.

ganization for common de-

majority will always choose
appeaSement - precisely the
role of the U. N. in Korea.
U. N. forces, chiefly from the
United States, have Temporal
rily "repelled aggression" but

Syngman Rhee is in the posi-

Czechoslovakia in behalf of
peace - the forerunner of
Munich. In fact, without a
hard-and-fast system of COL
lective and general security
backed by pooled supranational
military force, all roads lead to
Munich.
The late Senator Taft, in the
speech read for him in Gin
cinnati May 26, clearly stated
this fact, unpleasant to those
who fail to see that the U. N.
has already gone the way of
the League after the rejection
OF the protocol. Indeed, Sen
ator Taft's analysis of the
United Nations is a document
which will stand scrutiny on

Ambassador Warren got off
to a good start with his invi-
tatlon to the Turkish PreSl-
dent to visit Washington next
January. This is fine for
Turkish pride and its intense
drive for full partnership with
first-rate nations.
The Ambassador, a career
diplomat, has mastered the
art of talking expansively and
amusingly without conveying
much information. His Turkish
interrogators at his first press
conference here admired him
for this. They admitted they

The true story of what hap
pened between President Eli
senhower and Martin Durkin,
former Secretary of Labor, has
been obtained by this CORE
spondent from an unimpeach-
able source.
It would have been unneces-
sary to disclose all the facts
concerning the circumstances
that led to Mr.. Durkin's resig-
nation as Secretary of Labor
If it had not been for the
manner in which the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor's Of
f1cial publication, entitled
News Reporter" has just cast
doubt on President Eisenhow-
er's good faith in telling his
press conference that he never
in his life knowingly broke an
agreement with anybody.
The AFL'S publication now
says in its current issue that a
speech made recently by Vice
President Nixon at the AFL
convention fully confirmed
the truth of Martin Durkin's
charges that the President had
broken an agreement with
respect to the submission to-
Congress of a message on
changes in the Taft-Hartley
Act.
The AFL periodical selected
as its proof" a passage from
Mr.. NiXon'S speech in which
he said that he had had moth
ing to do with the substance
of the message but only with
its timing" From this the
AFL publication infers that
there was a message" the text
of which had been agreed upon
by the President and Mr.. Dur
kin, and that Gen. Eisenhower
was dissuaded from sending
the document to Congress one
day at its last session only be-
cause of the death of Senator
Taft and because it was
deemed perhaps disrespectful
to transmit such a message at
that time. The claim is made
by labor leaders that Gen. Eli
. senhower changed his mind
about sending the message as
it had been agreed upon and
thereby broke his agreement"
What are the facts?

Because of the strategic

Of their skill and experience,
gained by many years of prac-
tice, in Subverting Federal

that as long as they constitute

specialists, writer's, personnel

Most of the agents of the

below the top and out of the
public eye, ranging from con-
fidential assistants, division
heads, section chiefs and

unless replaced, that the Re-
publican appointees, who are
necessarily less experienced
in Government, must depend
to a great extent for informa-

the performance of their in

HOW does one Identify the
socialists in the Government?
AT the outset it cannot be
sufficiently emphasized that
these people do not call them
selves socialists and that for
most part, they do not belong
to the Socialist Party. They
are always liberals, and it is
always in the name of liberal
ism that they speak and act.
But that these people are
socialists, or more accurately
"crypto-socialists", since they
mask their socialism under
guise, is plainly revealed by

y. N. Compared to Old Leoque
ACrss tor the Principle of Collective Security Is Seen
SIIor to the Circumstances Of Its Earlier Sod Fote

AS a means of keeping peace
through collective security the
United Nations has reached
the point where the League of
Nations stood when the Lo-
carno system was created.
"Locarno," which Sir Winston
Churchill has reinvoked as
pointing the way to a possible
arrangement with the Soviets,
represented the decisive shift
from a policy of universal col
lective security to a policy of
limited risks. Then, as now,
leading members of the League
backed down when it became
clear what universal collective
security actually involved, the
issue being clarified by the
presentation of the so-called
protocol to the League of Ma
tions Covenant.
The covenant, Byron Dexter
recalls in the current issue of
Foreign Affairs" committed
League members to use peace
full means to settle conflicts,
but did not make obligatory a
forceful settlement of a war.
Twice in 1922 France asked
Great Britain whether she
considered that the covenant
committed Britain to military
action in case of German ag-
gression. Great Britain replied
that she would act if a Ger
man army crossed the French
frontier, but would not equally
guarantee the states on Ger
many'S eastern frontiers.
"This was a crisis for the

and "soft on communism" by,
of all people surprisingly, Gov.
Dewey of New York. For only
a few days later, before the
U. NJ, Secretary Dulles said
something that was almost
entirely overlooked, to wit:
"The Russian people, like
the French people, have not
forgotten what their nation
suffered from Hitlerite Ger
many during the Second World
War. They expect, and they
are entitled to, assurances
against a repetition of such
events"
Thus Secretary Dulles put
forth the non-aggression pact
idea which finally caught the
headlines, belatedly, last week
end when President Eisenhow-
er told Adlai Stevenson that it
was being considered by the
administration along with all
other proposals. Did the
President regard that as zap
peasement?" No he did not,
said the 1852 Democratic
presidential candidate.
BY inference the President
thus disassociated self
from the partisan criticism of
his opponent of last year. BY
the same token the President
dramatized, too, the difficulties
that he and Secretary Dulles
face from a hard core of his
party in Congress that storms
and stews at any approach to-
ward Russia and whips up
fears about Communism to
arouse the public. a chore in

I'VE voted for a change" :.
I'VE want a change"-"We

been the demands and senti-

American people since the pres

which time a Democrat admin

repudiated and a Republican
administration overwhelmingly
swept into office.
The people of America await
incontestable evidence of the
change for which they have so
explicitly expressed themselves.
There are already indications
of impatience, but the task
which confronts President Eli

iStration is not an easy one.
The pivotal problem emerges
from the necessity of placing
in sensitive policy determining
and influencing positions, COM

essential. to the formulation of
policy and the translation of
policy into positive action.
