A T FORT BENNING. there
4 a is a standard procedure
for entertaining VIPs. The dis
tinguished visitors are seated
in a comfortable place, shaded
from the hot Georgia sun and
well out of the line of fire.
At a prearranged signal, the
big guns bark out and the
demonstration troops advance
smartly across the sandhills
with a fine school solution re-
gard for the terrain and the
tactical situation. After a suit
able period of organized con-
fusion a flare goes up at the
far end of the demonstration
course and the exercise is
over-with the school troops
victorious over their non
existent enemy.
Last week, outraged cries
were heard in reaction to
something that sounded sus-
piciously like the old routine
at. Benning. But there was a
difference. Operation Smack
took place in Korea, not in
Georgia: the troops were SOL
diers of the Army on foreign
combat duty. not school troops
in the piney-woods; the enemy
was real and not imaginary
and the demonstration troops
did not triumph.
According to one story from
Evening star., 1953-02-01

who headed the Manhattan
A-bomb project in the 1940s,
said, however, that Mr.. Tru-
man might be right.
On a less official level there
was a wave of speculation.
Some Of it centered around
semantics: What is a bomb?
One scientist said he had no
doubt the Russians knew how
to make fashionable materials,
but that they might not know
how to build the triggering
apparatus that makes a bomb
possible. To this sort of think
ing, Senator Hickenlooper of
Iowa, ranking Republican on
the Atomic Energy Commit
tee, had this to say:
IF they can release an
atomic explosion when they
want to. they can make bombs,
because the technical skill re-
Quired in putting together the
material for an explosion
would not be greater than the
mechanics of incasing those
materials in a bomb"
For practical purposes, there
were two questions pending as
the week ended. First: Do the
Russians really have a bomb?
Second: Why did Harry Tru-
man say they haven't? The
chances of getting a really
definitive answer to either
question seemed remote.

Exit Van Fleet

Gen. James A. Van Fleet
made his informal farewells in
Korea last week, preparatory
to turning command of the
9Th Army over to 1t. Gen.
Maxwell D. Taylor.
At his final press conference
he said the South Korean
troops could man the entire
battle line within a year, pro-
yided "the high command
wants to remain on the line
we hold now. But nobody
wants to do that"
Gen. Van Fleet said the
U. N. allies co-operated "su-
perbly" in Korea but that he
wished other countries would
send more troops. He did not
comment on reports that he
would have another high Gov
ernment post after his retire.
ment in March.
Strings From Moscow
Meanwhile. Van Fleets
counterpart in the North Ko-
rean forces, Gen. Nam II, was
remaining grimly on the job.
Nam, according to a U. N.
command report released last
week, was in reality a Russian
citizen and an agent of the
dreaded Russian secret police.
Nam, the report said, had sig
nailed the outbreaks last year

of war camps.

Endorsed legislation to keep
the rolls confidential. The
question now Is before the
Commissioners.
1t is interesting that at this
moment the tax foundation
should make public a survey
showing that in the eight
States which have relief rolls
open, efficiency has increased
without any major effect on
the caseload. Best of all,
public confidence has increased
in the administration of relief.
This matter of public con-
f1dence is vital. Through the
years a number of Community
Chest drive failures can be
traced to lack of it. Public
and private welfare workers,
on the one hand. must guard
against having their credo ap-
pear to the contributing and
tax-paying public as: 1--WE
know what the problem is and
we'll handle 1t. Just give us
the money and don't ask any
questions" The public, on
the other hand, must develop
some understanding of the
social and psychological fac
tors involved in the giving and
taking of assistance that must
be treated in confidence.
From the tax foundation
study. it would appear that,
in the States which have
tried it, no social damage and
some administrative gains have
resulted from open rolls. It
would seem, therefore, that
welfare workers have nothing
to lose and something to gain
in public confidence from open
rolls here.

color cover labeled Secret"
The plan included a time

the defeat of a Communist

Before Operation Smack was
we'll under way, the Reds coun-
terattacked and drove the
Americans back, infiicting
heavy casualties.
The Army said the operation
was a tactical necessity, not
a show for VIPS. This expla-
nation satisfied some congress
sional leaders but left other
legislators cold.
Republican Representatives
Hoffman of Michigan and
Bray of Indiana demanded
explanation. The Michigander,
however, said he wanted to

was whether Fort Benning

Truman and the Atom

For a third of a decade, the
United States has been pro-
ceeding on the assumption
that it's chief potential enemy.
the Soviet Union, possesses not
only the secret" of the atomic
bomb, but the bomb itself.
This assumption had the best
possible basis: Three separate
statements by the President
of the United States himself.
supposedly founded on infor-
nation from our intelligence
agencies.
Last week the man who was
President when these three
announcements we're made said
he was not convinced that
Russia had the bomb after all.
Mr.. Truman's statement set
off a furry of angry comment.
1t was recalled that on three
occasions. White House an
nouncements said positively
that atomic explosions had
occurred inside the Soviet
Union.
White House Announcements
Here is the actual language
of the three announcements:
September %, 1919: "We
have evidence that within re-
cent weeks an atomic explo-
sion occurred in the U. S. S. r."
October 3, 1851: Another
atomic bomb has recently been
exploded within the Soviet
Union"
October %, 1851: Another
atomic explosion has occurred
!. apparently as part Of a
test SERIES"
The day after his surprise
about-face, the ex-President
stood pat. He said he had been
luoted correctly. That seemed
to be that.
1t may have been that for
Mr.. Truman. 1t distinctly was
not for official Washington.
Atomic Energy Commission
Chairman Gordon Dean said
fatty that the Russians have
the bomb. Three members of
the Joint Congressional Atomic
Energy Committee said that
by the time of the first an
nouncement in 1949 "the evi-
dence had been fully evaluated
md simply did not admit of
1oubt." And in his first
address as Secretary of State.
ohm Foster Dulles said point
'dly and positively that the
A-bomb was in Russia's
rsenal.

Metropolitan Scene-@
Commerce Department Statistics Indicate
D. c. Income Is Slipping, Suburbs GROWING

The Commerce Department
threw out some interesting and
significant facts and figures at
the Board Of Trade outlook
Conference at the Shoreham
the other day.
Did you know that:
l. In 1852 the average per
capita income in the District
was $3.50, compared with a
national average of 81, $50.
2. Out Of $3.4 billion aggre-
gate income for the Metropoli-
tan Area, a little over half was
received in the District and the
rest about evenly divided be-
tween Maryland and Virginia.
In 1899, 70 per cent of the
area income was earned by
District residents. Now it has
dropped to So per cent. What
does this mean? Just what
everybody has been saying all
along. The people with money
are moving to the suburbs.
The tax implications of this
are obvious.
Homer Hoyt, president of
Homer Hoyt Associates, had
this additional information to
give the conference:
/. The average income of a
white family in the District
was $5,825. The average for
Colored families was $500.
2. White families are leaving
the city at the rate of 4,500 a
year. Those with young chill
dren are doing most of the mi
grating. 1t is reflected in vast
population increases in Fair
fax and Falls Church.
Mr.. Hoyt, an urban land spe-
eialist now making economic
studies for Fairfax, Montgom-
cry and Prince Georges Coun-
ties after completing one for
Arlington, issued this warning
to the District:

Government sources" late in

they were confirmed.
Last week it was revealed
that the policy had been

with about 125 nominations,
had not had time even to COM
plete it's check on Secretary
Dulles. To keep State Depart
ment operations from grinding
to a halt, the committee de-
cided to confirm all appointees

The modified policy would
remain in effect until the G.

backlog. A fulfilled investi-

months.
