vided America lends its un-
Stinting help.
It is unfortunate that the
high-ranking visitors who have
preceded Adenauer in WASH
ington, such as Britain's For
eign Secretary Anthony Eden
and especially Frances Pre-
mier Rene Mayer and For
eign Minister Georges Bidault,
have shown less than an aca-
demic interest in this problem.
Theoretically, they said, it is
highly desirable to have a
united Europe. But Britain
and her many overseas inter-
ests can be interested only as
a spectator.
France, which is eminently
continental European, is un-
willing to go full speed ahead
lest Germany become the DOM
inant power in such an or
ganization. French political
men such as former Premiers
Pinay and Schuman and the
present Premier Mayer appre-
ciate personally the advan-
tages of liberalization. But
they consider this move pre-
mature since the vast majority
of their countrymen are def
nitely opposed to any union
with Germany unless the for
mer Reich accepts a subordi-
nate role.
AS a matter Of fact, as
things stand today. the Paris
government would prefer to
maintain the present forced
separation between East and
West Germany and does not
favor a peace treaty whereby
those two portions of the
Reich might be reunited.
The fear that Germany
may possibly rule the roost is
causing the French Parlia-
ment to delay the ratification
of the European defense pact
which would increase the
strength of the Western de-
fense system by addition Of
some 100000 German soldiers.
This matter is said to have
a top priority in the converSa-
tions between our top policy
makers and the German viS-
itor. President Eisenhower.

like the overwhelming ma
jority of his advisers in the
official family and in Con-
greSS, continues to keep fip-
gers crossed at the Kremlin'S
peace advances. They have
not been taken in by the Mus
covites' cooings while many Of
our allies have.
There is a growing feeling
in Washington that the sud-
den lovey-dovey attitude Of
the Kremlin is intended to
break up the still flimsy struc-
ture of the NATO before final
decisions for creation Of q
German armed force can be
reached.
Apparently. Prime Minister
Malenkov and his associates
who preside over the U. s.
S. RS policies decided that
the time was ripe to attempt
to wean France and her neigh
bors from the American in
fluence" by peace advances,
thus preventing their active
participation in the defense
efforts spearheaded by the
United States.
Until the Muscovites give
some very tangible proof Of
their desire to live in peace
with the free world-such as
a real disarmament based on
international inspection-the
Kremlin's smiling attitude will
not, be taken as proof that the
U. S. S. r. has changed her
basic goals.
Insofar as his Government
Is concerned, the organization
of an effective defense system
in Europe is still its major
problem. And If the Russian
cooingS can affect-aS they

lux friends, they are unlikely

ministration or any sizable
portion Of the German people.

Dovid Lawrence: ~" -. ~
FIexibi|ity in Treoty-Moking
Amendment Proposed by Senator Brcker Does Not
Far Enough Toword Lonq-Needed StreomIinnq
Dovid Lowrence:

Shall the American people
have the same right as do the
people Of Great Britain or
France or Canada or Australia
to vote on whether a treaty
negotiated by the executive
branch of the Government
shall be approved or rejected
by all their elected representa-
tives in the National Legisla-
ture?
This is the real issue aris-
ing out Of the proposal Of
Senator Bricker that the Fed
eral Constitution be amended
to prevent treaties from super
seding the laws Of the land
unless both houses approve by
majority vote.
While Secretary Of State
Dulles in a speech last year
indorsed the principle. which
is also sponsored by the Ameri-
can Bar Association and "a
Senator'S, he now takes the
position that the matter should
be studied further by q ma
tional commission.
The idea Of further study
Is q sound one because it is
apparent that the safeguards
which Secretary Dulles says
can be given during the
Eisenhower administration
namely, that no treaties will
be negotiated which affect
domestic rights and problems
plainly national rather than
international-do not offer a
permanent solution. Some of
the very points made by the
Secretary, to the effect that
the Executive must be free to
act quickly In making agree
ments with foreign govern
mentS, especially in emergen-
cieS, are really arguments for
an entirely different setup
than is available at present
under our Constitution. For
what Britain and Canada have
and America doesn't-is
f1exibility.

as the Versailles treaty in

Doris FIeeson:

In its haste to appeaSe Re-
publican nationaliSts led by
Senator Bricker, the Eisenhow-
er administration has thrown
away the opportunity to make
a strategic retreat on principle
which would have left intact
American leadership in the
field of human rights.
The Soviet Union does not
now need to worry about ways
to wriggle out Of signing a
United Nations Covenant on
Human Rights. Secretary Of
States Dulles took it OF the
hook when he forecloSed United
States participation.
Consideration Of this result
stands wholly apart from the
victor and vanQuiShed in the
matter Of the covenant itself.
On the narrow issue, victory
perches on Senator 'Bricker'S
banner and the Soviet Union
sgets a dividend therefrom. The
vanquiShed are only that rare
few who were welded to the
covenant in any form it might
assume.
What actually has happened
Is that Mr., Dulles formalized
at the wrong time, in the
wrong place and in apparent
obedience to the wrong people
q situation which has been
long in the making.
He has jettisoned the COW
enants on human rights and
the rights Of women and the
genocide convention the mo-
ment he was threatened with
war by the Bricker-led Sena-
tors who want to pass a con-
Stitutional amendment cur
failing executive powers in the
treaty field. Had the Secretary
taken any real bipartisan po-
litical soundingS. he would
have learned that:
/. Democratic leaders in the
Senate are confident the
Bricker amendment will not
be passed.

other Senators to support his
amendment during the Truman
administration but reintro-
duced 1t in slightly altered form

Teddy RooseveIt's
Big Stick Sought
For National Shrine
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

ROOSEVELT, N. Y, April g.
The citizens Of this Long Island
community have started q hunt
for Theodore Roosevelt's big
stick"
They want it for q national
shrine to be opened here later
this year at Mr.. Roosevelt's
Oyster Bay home, Sycamore
Hill.
Mr.. Roosevelt was presented
the hand-carved stick when he
attended o f1remen's tourna-
ment here shortly after he first
used the motto: Speak softly
and carry q big stick"
In 1908. this community
changed its name from Green
wich Point to Roosevelt In honor
Of the President.

all the signerS. This was a field
in which President Eisenhower
could have personally negoti-
ated many a Mccarthy style
agreement with the Senate
vote-ownerS.
3. Many able people asso-
ciated with the struggle for
conventions in past years, in
cluding Truman appointees,
had become convinced that the
covenants were not working out
properly. If asked, they would
have helped Mr.. Dulles prepare
a retreat which would have
safeguarded this country's in
ternationa1 position.
One Of this group put It:
"The discussions were putting
us into a position where we
could have rejected the cove
nants on the ground that they
didn't do enough. Meanwhile,
we were profiting from our sim
cere attempt to find ways in
which our conservative legal
system would let us help other
peoples.
Now we are creating the
impression that we are more
interested in reform abroad
than at home. This is a ludi-
crous position for us since we
are so far ahead of other
peoples"
The fact is that former
President Truman had never
gone further than to express
the hope that the covenants
would come to him in such a
form he could sign them. That
hope was fervent: his support
for the American negotiatorS
was constant and firm.
Mrs. Roosevelt, whose name
is indelibly associated all over
the world with human rights,
will express her disappoint-
ment with current develop
ments in her own column. Her
principal fear Is that the
countries Of the world will
think we are giving up our
leadership and are not In
terested in their attaining our
own high level Of human
rights.
That leadership she counts
among our greatest interna-
tional assets. She has said

tions, and then seeing the
American Senate refuse to
ratify it Is one that has af-
fected adversely the course Of
world history. This may have
contributed substantially to
the conditions Of disunity
which made it possible for Hit
Ter to risk a world war.
What Senator Bricker and
his colleagues propose, how
ever, does not go far enough.
It is an attempt to reach by
indirection that which might
better be tackled directly. For
the real goal Is maximum flexi-
bility for the Executive in
negotiating agreements, but
with the stipulation that the
Congress shall be given an
opportunity to ratify or reject
every agreement made by the
Executive, which is at present
the privilege and right of the
legislatures in the principal
parliamentary governments Of
the world. In recent years the
tendency Of the American Ex-
ecutive has been to circumvent
Senate ratification by making
agreements" and failing to
submit them to the Senate as
treaties. Certainly the famous
Yalta agreements were treaties.
but they have never been sub
mitted to the Senate for rati-
flcation or rejection.
A system that gives one
party control Of both the exec
utive and legislative branches
and makes such a party subject
to the check Of the people at
at any time-and not at fixed
four-year periods-would pre-
vent a deadlock between the
two branches of the Govern
ment. It would also insure
that the Executive, in making
any treaty or agreement, would
have to take into account
whether a two-thirds majority
would ratify such a treaty or
agreement. There would be
no repetition Of the episode in
1920, when the Senate was
controlled by one political
party and the White House by
another political party.

during one summer to get tut
tion for his sophomore year; the
next summer he carpentered.
When the Duffys first came to
Washington, they lived in a
trailer near Woodbridge, Va.
Studying until 3 am. every day
in such cramped quarters and
committing back and forth to
school was so hard on everyone
Mr.. Duffy bought a six-apart-
ment tenement at the Kansas
avenue address.
Quit Rail Job.
Mr.. Duffy's money-raising
projects began when he quit a
$5,000-a-year railroad job in
1945 to start his pre-medical edu-
cation at the University Of
Nevada.
With the savings he had ac-
cumulated, he bought a house,
which his wife organized as a
nursery school. Mr.. Duffy bought
two trailers. put them on his lot
and rented them out. He also
worked four hours a night in a
laundry during this period.
Mr.. Duffy is going to keep
right on improvising. even after
he starts his internship on July
at Permanente Foundation Hos
pital, Oakland, Calf. He has
applied for a commission in the
inactive Air Force reserve to help
him stay in the black. He'll repay
the Air Force with a two-year
hitch after his internship.
Mr.. Duffy's ultimate ambition
is to become a general practi-
toner in a small Arizona town.
where he can make the treat
ment of tuberculosis his side
line. This has been his ambi-
ton sine he was a boy, when
he was inspired by several doc
tors who took care of his mother.
Looks Forward to May.
The Duffy home will be a
happy place next month. Mr..
Duffy will get his degree May 81.
His daughter. Diana, II, will be
graduated from Junior. high
school, and his son, Michael,
IL, from grade school. Another
daughter, Bonnie, 6, will be sue
cessfully through the first grade.
Mr.. Duffy said much of the
credit for reaching his goal goes
to his wife who never doubted
he had made the right choice in
leaving railroad work.

WhyGrow
Old?
By Josephine Lowmon

There are many ways in which
to apply perfume. I think many
women fail to realize how help
full a spray is. This should be a
very fine, mistlike spray. You
can spray your hair or your dress.
This leaves very subtle fra
GRANGE.
If you are going to apply per-
fume to the skin, you should
place it at pulse points-for in
stance, the temples or the wrists.
Remember that perfume does not
smell nearly so lovely in the
bottle as on the skin. Here are
a few more suggestions about the
use of your perfume.
Avoid those which are too
strong and sweetly cloying. Waves
of nausea rather than waves Of
admiration are likely to follow
the woman who bowls us over
with heavy perfume, the kind
which fingers with sickening
strength, long after the lady has
left the room. Of course, there
are some pleasant scents which
fall into this group. but if you
use one of these be sure you use
it very sparingly.
Then there is the other diff
f1culty which women have. Some
of the most intriguing fragrances
are so subtle and mild they do not
last long. If yours belongs to
this class you can do one of
several things. Dampen two
little pads of flannel in the per-
fume and attach one to each
shoulder, or you can place one
in each cup of your brassiere.
Body heat will revive the gentle
scent.
To make your perfume last, be
sure that the top Of the vial is
secure after each usage If the
top is of the ground-g glass va
riety you can open it easily by
tapping all around the edges of
the stopper very gently with
another bottle top or anything
else which is handy.
The use of perfume is really
an art. It is charming if you
use enough. but not too much
It should always be subtle and
elusive.
