Gen. Smith UnofficiolIy Titled
Manager Of World War II
New Dulles Aide
Is Well Versed
In Diplomacy

/ A serious, hard-working man
Gen. Walter Bedell Smith is one
of the few American diplomats
who has conferred directly as a
representative of the allied pow
ers with Premier Joseph Stain
Gen. Smith, designated yester-
day to become Undersecretary OF
State in the Eisenhower admin
stration, spent three hard years
in Moscow as American Ambas-
sador.
But he first came into diplo-
matte prominence in 1945 when
he secretly went to Lisbon and
acting for Gen. Eisenhower, who
then was Supreme Allied Com
mander in Europe, negotiated
the surrender of Italy. The act
was a heavy blow to the German
military machine and a great
benefit to America and its allies
Gen. Smith, born in Indianap-
oils October S, 1895, earned the
unofficial title of general man
ager" of World War II in Eu-
rope as Gen. Eisenhower's chief
of staff. It was his contribu-
ton to the intricate planning OF
the invasion of Europe that
caused his friends to give him
the title.
Praised by Eisenhower.
| Gen. Eisenhower has said of
his service during this period:
HE was a Godsend-a master
of detail with clear comprehen-
sion of main issues. Serious,
hard-working and loyal, he
proved equally as capable in diff
f1cult conference as he was in
professional activity. Strong in
character and abrupt by instinct,
he would achieve harmony with
out appeasement and earned for
himself an enviable standing
throughout the armies and gov
ernments of Europe"
A small. tough, tenacious man,
he is widely known as "Beedle'
AS he pronounces his middle
name. He has few intimates
and has seldom talked with
newspapermen.
His speech lis clipped and pre-
cised. He has the reputation of
being a perfectionist and occa-
sionally flares up. Stockily
built, with graying brown hair
and brown eyes, his sturdy phys
ique enables him to work long
hours.
Although essentially a military
staff man. Gen. Smith has the
looks and manners of a field of
f1cer. After only part of a year
at college. he enlisted in the Ma
tional Guard and spent seven
years as an enlisted man before
wining a commission in 1917. He
was in France in World War I.
Gen. George C. Marshall, who
later was to become Secretary of
State and then Secretary of De-
fense during the Truman admin
istration. sent Gen. Smith to
Gen. Eisenhower as his chief of
staff.
Returned from Moscow in 1949.

the first Thanksgiving I've been

realize the meaning of Thanks
giying-how thankful We should
all be that we are American citi-

in Korea, and how thankful /
should be to have such wonder

You know, a year ago, i would

other people live, / realize just
how lucky We are, living in Am

able to afford fish once or twice
a week, We can afford steak.
Where these people walk around
in open wooden shoes, We walk
in closed leather ones. Where the
men of the family have bicycles,
We have cars.
There are SO many innumer-
able things that it would be quite
hard to put them all down. But
the most heartbreaking of all is
a woman carrying her baby and
pulling on your sleeve begging
for money.
Yes, 1 think we're all pretty

At IsraeIis

WASHINGTON, (JTA = Tryg-
We Lie, former secretary general
of the United Nations, said here
that the Security Council had
"acted in bit of a hurry" in
passing its resolution cenSuring
Israel for the retaliatory raid on
Kibya.
He told testimonial dinner in
honor of A. S. Kay, veteran
Zionist, that the U.N. Security
Councils resolution censuring Is
rael was not well balanced with
former U.N. resolutions.
"Not being associated with the
United Nations any longer, and not
having the opportunity to study the
facts at close range" said Lie,
Il am heSitant to criticize it's de-
cisions. l cannot help notice an
commission in the Kibya resolution
= that of an. appeal for peace,
which has characterized some pre-
viouS UN resolutions. The Kibya
resolution merely censures and
condemns, it does not urge the
Arabs and Jews to seek out me-
thods of reaching a peaceful set
tlement of their differences.
The Arab states, Lie stated, must
recognize the fact that Israel is a
full-fledged member of the United
Nations and must sit down with
Israel leaders and enter into po-
sitive peace negotiations. He said
there can be no permanent sta
bility in the Middle East until the
parties negotiate their differences
