Although the American en-
ployes of the U. N. are not APP

ment. an agreement between
Secretary General Trygve Lie
and the department permits
the latter to check them as Sc
curity risks.

various aspects of the State

activities. d
Like many other sincere but
only Scantily informed citi-
zens, Mr.. Dulles was inclined
before he took Office to side"
with those who shouted NC
Carthyism" so violently when
ever an official was accused of
lack of loyalty.
Secretary Dulles wants his
subordinates to offer concrete
criticism. This can be given
only If they are sure that their
disagreement will not be in
terpreted as disloyalty. Mr..
Dulles is genuinely concerned
lest the various investigating
committees of Congress may
affect the freedom of thought
of members Of his department.
Mr.. Dulles has discovered
recently, however, that this
was not the case, notwith-
standing the claims of some of
his underlings such as Samuel
j. Boykin, acting director of
the Security Division, who
stated before the Expenditures
subcommittee that the investi-
cations were affecting the
morale of the personnel.
Testimony was presented
under oath last Thursday that
officials stationed in China be-

Dulles Sees Big Need for Broom
a Few Rotten Apples Damage the Peoples Confidence
And Point Up Need for Department Houseceonnq
Constantine Brown:

The State Department is
due for an early and thorough
housekeeping at the hands Of
the new Secretary of State.
Whatever doubts John Fost-
er Dulles may have had about
the reports of inefhciency, ex-
travagance and particularly of
bad security risks in his de-
partment have faded away in
the last few days.
MIR. Dulles was connected
with the State Department in
an advisory capacity for a
number of years but never had
an opportunity to investigate
whether the stories about the
goings on in that organization
were true.
According to those who were
close to Mr.. Dulles he was in
clined to discount the reports
that the unmasking of Alger
Hiss had only scratched the
surface. He was skeptical
about the reports that a hard
core of fellow-travelers. Glib
eral biologists" and dupes still
held responsible positions.
Mr.. Dulles was sincere when
he promised to clean I'D his
department. But he did not
actually think that he might
have to use a big broom or
sweep out more than a few
individuals.
In less than two weeks the
following facts have been re-
vealed at the hearing of the
Senate Expenditures subcom-
mittee:
l. There was a. rotten Sc
curity situation in the division
which handled the secret per-
sonnet files of the department.
2. There has been gross
mismanagement which may be
attributed to more serious
reasons than stupidity and
carelesSness in the handling Of
some technical installations Of
the Voice of America.
8. Sinister influences were
exercised by some officials of
the Voice" in handling our
propaganda broadcasts with
the result that they were in
effective in the fight against
Red ideologies.
And the investigations of
this subcommittee have only
just begun. They are likely to
bring to light far more devas-
tating revelations as they con-
tinue.
The Internal Security SUBJ
committee, headed by Senator
Jenner. has resumed the in

Achievements Of First so DAYS
Real Effects Of What Administration Has Accomplished
Won't Be Visible Yet, But the Total Is Considerable
Dovid Lowrence:

BY Thursday of this week
the Eisenhower administra-
ton will have completed 80
working days of Government
emitting Sundays and holi-
days.
Within that 80 days some
thing fundamental by way of
changing the approach to gov
ernmental administration has
been accomplished. But the
real effects will not be visible
for many months to come. For
the truth is the new admins
tration has not had time to
do more than to change the
approach-it has not yet as
sembled either the personnel
or the facts necessary to the
making of new long-range pol
icieS.
To the country at large, per-
haps, the new administration
got into full swing from the
time the nominations of all
members Of the Cabinet were
confirmed by the Senate. But
in Government that's just the
beginning. For there are hun
dredS of subordinates to be
chosen and literally dozens of
important places where a
transfer Of authority has yet
to take place.
Anyone who has had the ex-
perience of moving his family
and belongings from one city
to another will have some idea
of what it means for a
governmental administration
to change. For, not only are
there for the newcomers the
personal problems growing out
of change of home, an adap-
tation to a new neighborhood
and arrangements for the
placing of ones children in
new schools that have to be
taken care of on the home
side, but every incoming Of
fetal has to get acquainted
with an entirely strange Or
ganization with which he has
to deal daily in his Office.
So it is in many respects
extraordinary what the new
regime here has done in so
brief a time. It couldn't, Of

are determined. as we'll, to stop
new ones so needed in our
rapidly growing economy.
They would crush here, where
1t started, the idea now copied
all over the world.
But the Norris dream is a
hardy one, and has staunch
friends. His dream grew to in
clude other great watersheds,
an MVA for the great Missouri
basin. a eva for the Columbia,
both bitterly fought. But just
the other day a compromise
for MVA was proposed in the
report of a 12-man commission
appointed by President Tru-
man, headed by James E. Law
renee, newspaper publisher Of
Lincoln Neb., and "a close
friend of Senator Norris for
years.
While it rejected both a
Missouri Valley Authority on
the IVA pattern and a COM
pact Of States for Missouri
Basin development, the COM
mission approached the MVA
principle. It recommended a
f1ve-member Missouri Basin
Commission, appointed from
the area by the President.
This would do the planning
for basin development, co-or-
dinate Federal authorities in
the basin, and prepare and
submit budgets for appropria-

News dispatches tell how
Prime Minister Nehru of India
threw the switches to begin
operation of the first units of
q vast $40 million multiple
purpose system for flood con-
troll, irrigation and power de-
velopment in his country.
It is modelled on our IVA,
with a managing corporation
created by the Indian Parlia-
ment, Damodar Valley Cor
poration, similar to the Ten
nessee Valley Authority, Gre
ated by our Congress. It is
being built by Philadelphia
engineering concern, Kuljian
Corporation, and will be oper-
ated by native Indian engineers
trained at similar big public
projects in our country.
Throughout it represents the
export of an American idea.
The story told by the news
dispatches takes this reporter
back to April, 1914, back to a
simple two-story house in Me-
Cook, Nebraska, where the late
Senator George w. Norris
lived for 60 years, and to an
interview with the distin-
guished Nebraskan, an old
friend, the father of our iva.
It was only a few months be-
fore his death. He was 81
years old.
He was happy to see a visitor
from Washington. For his
restless spirit still was back
In Congress where he had
served so long. Retired in
the election two years before,
he still brooded over his defeat,
though he was finding conSola-
ton from his loneliness In

as by its opponents. WiShful
thinking which seeks to attrib-
ute decisions on policy before
they are made can be expected.
There is one change which is
more or less unfamiliar to the
public. but is by far the most
important that has happened.
Government which began as a
one man affair under FDR,
and then became a one-clique
affair under Mr.. Truman, has
given way to a team Of able
men whose objectivity in deal
ing with the public interest is
unparalleled in history.
To the partisan critics. this
may seem an administration
by tycoon" or by big BUSH
ness" but actually it is an adj
ministration which is deter
mined to bring about low
prices for the consumer, low
taxes. higher purchasing power
Of the dollar, and a victory in
the cold war;" which will les
sen considerably the drain on
American youth.
The goals haven't been
changed bit since they were
announced by Gen. Eisen-
hover during the campaign,
but he has only started on his
task Of picking q govern
mental team capable of orderly
thinking and decisive action.
Much has been done in 80
working days. Viewed in broad
perspective. it has been a pc
Rod of phenomenal achieve
ment. For transition is slow
ly but surely being affected
from a mess" of incompetence
and moral corruption in han
ding public funds to a clean
and capable administration.
Devotion to the public interest
is already evidenced by the
many men who have made
sacrifices Of position and A.
nancial comfort to serve their
Government in Washington
under the inspiration of a like
able, earnest, conscientious
President.

The Grim Briefing's Meaning
Republican Leaders in Congress Fear Their Own ProbIe
In the Political Field as Well as Russian Aggression

Most Senators however were
for Mr.. Taft for President:
they wish he had won and
they would support him If he
broke away from the Eisen-
hover policy. So far he has
given them no encouragement.
Part Of the problem is a
simple matter of chronology.
The President Of course is nee
essarily interested in maintain
ing COP. control Of Congress
but personally he has four
years to ride out storms and
wait for better times Mem
bers of the House must run
again next year and so must
a third Of the Senate. They
are eager for solid accomplish
ments and the sooner the bet
ter.
Again fortunately for their
party, most Republican Sena-
tors up next year are from safe
States and most Democrats
from doubtful ones. This
should tend to stiffen the mar
row Republican majority
against breakaways.
Another reason many Re-
publicans would like some big
handsome bills to work on in
fulfillment Of campaign
pledges is that they are ner-
vous about the spate of Con-
gressional investigations. They
are now investigating them
selves, they realize, and that
has its hazards. They would
prefer to see such committees
overshadowed by legislative
accomplishments and quickly.

course, have been achieved ex-
cept for the pre-inauguration
planning by the Eisenhower
top men.
The public, to be sure, ex-
poets a smooth transition,
little knowing what are the
pitfalls or the handicaps. Ac-
tually the largest part of the
time to date has been spent
by President Eisenhower and
his principal assistants trying
to persuade competent and
experienced personnel to give
up attractive and successful
careers and come to Govern
ment. This doesn't get into the
headlines. The turn downs are
almost as numerous as the
acceptances. Not everybody is
in a position to drop his work
and lifetime connections and
his professional or business or
academic relationships and
move his family to Washington
to take a post at a salary far
less than he now gets outside
the Government.
Delays on personnel nat
urally hold up policy-making.
though here a start has been
made. But it rather relates to
method than to actual deci-
sions.
The critical partisans-who
began shipping even before the
inauguration-are trying to
muddy the waters by arguing
either that decisions should
already have been made on
certain important questions or
that the decisions will be the
same as those of the previous
administration or that internal
friction is inevitable anyway.
The American people will
know how to distinguish be-
tween fair and objective criti-
cism and mischievous attempts
at sabotage.
Important decisions thus far
have been few. And even these
are subject to improvement
and adaptation as time goes on
and more facts are available or
as circumstances beyond
Americas control make re-
vision desirable. The admins

itors-an engineer who had
come all the way from China;
a woman author from France
who was writing a book about
IVA, a traveller from India,
among many, many others.
Now his idea has got back
to India in an enduring monu-
ment of concrete. the series of
great dams, as it has got back
also to France, to Egypt and
other lands. This pilgrimage
to the little town of McCook
from the ends of the earth
was, indeed, a tribute to the
man and his idea and his per-
tinacity, for it took years and
an uphill struggle against
powerful political and eco
nomic forces to make the
dream come true.
AS we talked that day in
April. 1914, in McCook, that
struggle came often into the
conversation. For this re-
porter the story began when
he covered hearings in 1922
before the House Military AZ
fairs Committee. They con-
cerned offers from private in
terests, including the late
Henry Ford. to buy from the
Government the dam it had
built-Wilson Dam--at Muscle
Shoals in Alabama to manu-
facture nitrates for explosives
in World War I. George Nor
ris, over in the Senate,
thought the Government
should keep its valuable prop
erty and utilize it to manufac-
ture nitrates for fertilizer for
farmers all over the Nation
and to generate electricity for
all the people Of the region at
low cost.
Twelve years later, after
many vicisSitudes, Franklin D.
Roosevelt, as President eSpoused
the Norris idea which was

Congress approved it.

Information about the rea-
sons why an individual re-
signs or is separated from the
service Is kept secret by the
department, even from Con-
gress. Yet in this particular
instance the department in
formed a private concern
which was interested in this
individual that he had been

Communist leaningS..
This is only one of the many
instances the Senate Expendi-
lures subcommittee is said to
have in its files. They will be
brought out as other officials
of the State Department are
summoned to testify.
Mr.. Dulles is believed to
realize that just a few read
justments" in his department
are not enough to bring it back
to an efficient and reliable or
ganization. He is also aware
that because of relatively
few rotten apples the conf
dence of the American people
in the State Department has
been seriously affected.
Mr.. Dulles knows that he
must use literally one of the
many new brooms given Presi-
dent Eisenhower during the
campaign by his supporters.

tions by Congress. It would
advise and consult always with
State and local authorities in
its planning, in which the gov
errors of the basin States
would constitute an advisory
commission. Any State which
so desired could be omitted
from participation, which
would not, however, preclude
its coming in later.
Maybe we can still get in
that great area something
close to what we have already
in Tennessee-and what India
has in India.
