Our Pact With South Korea

The mutual security pact initiated bv
Secretary of State Dulles and President svnp
man Rhee is in keeping with one of the Ameri-
can offers made to DR.. Rhee when was was
threatening that the armed forces of the Re-
pubic OF Korea would refuse to abide by the truce
agreement now In effect. What he demanded
at tnat time was an ironclad commitment from
tne united States to go to war on his side,
Immediately and automatically, in case he
became involved in new hostilities. He has
not received that commitments commitment
much too sweeping to be ratified by the
Senate-but he has received important assur-
anceS similar to those contained in the treaties
we nave In force with Japan, the Philippines
Australia and New Zealand.
Thus under the pact-which the Senate
will almost certainly ratify in the next session
OF CongresS-it is agreed that the United
States and the Republic of Korea, in the event
OF an attack on the latter, will each ioin
together to meet the common danger in
accordance with its constitutional processes"
1t is also agreed that our Government will have
the right to station troops over there OF
course, even If there were no such understand
Ing, and If the Communists broke the truce by
resortlng to an unprovoked renewal of criminal
aggression, our country would scarcely have
any choice but to fight back on the side of
South Korea. Hence to that extent, the
mutual security treaty does little more than
formalize guarantee already inherent in the
armistice situation.
But the treaty-which is likely to stir up
sharp dispute with the Communists at the
political conference scheduled to begin in
October-has longterm significance wholly
apart from the truce. Like our treaties with
Japan, the Philippines, Australia and New
Zealand, it is meant to remain in force for
many years, not just as an accord to bolster
the armistice but as an agreement designed
to promote enduring security In that sense,
1t fits in with our other Pacific and Far Eastern
pacts as part of growing network of bilateral
agreements calculated to serve the safety,
freedom and peace of all the signatories in
that part Of the world It's sole purpose. in
short, is to act as deterrent as long as the
threat Of aggression remains real.

Germany Has q Big Election Coming Up

We1mar Republic between 1919 and
1882 had become a continuously in
creasing danger to the formation of
clear-cut governments and with that
to the existence of the democratic state.
The five per cent clause Is, however,
not valid as regards national minori-
ties, so that the pro-DaniSh citizens of
SchleSwig- HolStein will be able again
to send representative to the new
Parliament.
Although there are a total Of some go
parties Of which at most ten are known
to most Germans, it is expected that
scarcely more than six parties will enter
the new Parliament: The Christian
Democrats, the Social Democrats, the
Free Democrats. the BHE, lie. the bloc
of expelleeS and diSpoSSeSsed, the Ba-
varia Party and the German Party.
Newly formed parties must first give
proof of their democratic character
and democratic form of organization
before they are allowed to put up can
didates for election.
A considerable part of last Parlia-
ment'S members will probably belong
also to the new Bundestag. The parties
are, however, trying to reduce the aver
age age Of their representatives. Up
to now the average age of members of
Parliament was So years: of the Chris
tian Democrats, the main government
party, even 50. This high average age
is seen as one of the reasons why 6.5
per cent of members of the first Parlia-
ment died during the legislative term.
The share of women, at present nine
per cent, is to be increased
The large parties are also seeking
to get into Parliament more experts
on foreign-political, financial, economic,
legal, social and administrative ques-
tionS. The aim is also to send highly
qualified representatives from the Bun
destag to the big supra national organ
izations, such as the Council of Europe
in Strassbourg and the parliament of
the European Community for Coal and
Steel at Luxembourg.
The chances of the various parties
are not easy to weigh. The number of
voters registered with the parties Is
not very large. The Social Democrats
have $50, 900, the Christian Democratic
Union $4,000, the Free Democrats 8O,-
900 registered members. 1t is expected
that the BHE with 200, 900 registered
members, which already had some sue
cess in state elections, will this time
also gather some mandates on the ma
tional level.
The government parties are confident
as regards the outcome of the elections.
They pin their faith to a large extent
on the foreign policy of Federal Chan
cellor Adenauer, which will probably
have much influence even on voters
who disagree with him on domestic is
sues. The government coalition points
to a by-election to state Parliament
on July II, when in a South German
constituency the Christian Democrats
were able to increase their share of
votes from 43 to so per cent and the
Free Democrats from Is to 1875 per
cent, while the opposition Social Demo-
Gratis declined from 81 to 16 per cent.

@. Please tell briefly what the actual
duties Of Queen Elizabeth II are
S. H. D.
A. The Queen does not govern but
ertruSts the executive power to her
ministers. Her duties include opening
OF Parliament. signing of state papers
and all bills, granting of honors. and
running her household of more than
500 persons. In addition she is con-
stantly required to attend public func-
tions. The Queen has the right to full
information on all matters and may
consult regularly with her Prime Min
ister Her principal role, however, is
to serve as the symbol of Britain and the
Commonwealth.
@. What water temperature is best
for swimming ?-G. r. z.
A. Temperatures between IA and 78'
are said to be best. Colder water
causes muscles to stiffen and warmer
water is enervating. Most authorities
agree that the water temperature
should not be below 65'.

By Jock Jonas

Last week seemed like a good
time to start thinking about
buying a new automobile.
Used car lots were jammed
with cars. And still, new auto
dealers were holding out in
ducements in the form of
higher trade-in allowances, if
the car happened to be no
more than two or three years
old.
But they weren't optimistic
about making much of a profit
by reselling the trade-ins as
used cars.
Banks and other financial
institutions still were compar-
atively free with cash for new
car purchases on 24-month
loans, and, in rare cases, 30
month loans. But credit for
used cars was as tight as when
the Government exercised
credit controls a year ago.
The people who sell cars for
a living were facing-although
they wouldn't admit it pub
licly - their first major re-
trenchment since before Pearl
Harbor.
These are the signs:

new-car industry, which start
