Sees No offshore Oil 'Grob'

In your issue of January 81, the col
urnn of Thomas L. Stokes sounds
warning for the new regime" alleging
that private interests stand poised to
grab off the Nations natural resources
when Congress gives word"
It is of course apparent that if Con-
gress, which is the direct representative
of the sovereign people. gives the word
there can be no grab" involved. Mr..
Stokes seems confused in number Of
points In his argument, and while /
hold no brief for any petroleum pro-
ducer, feel that his assertions should
not go unanswered.
In speaking of the offshore lands sup
posedly containing oil and other min
erals, and which lie within the historical
jurisdiction Of the coastwise States,
Mr.. Stokes unburdens himself of the
following: "If these lands are turned
back to the States in conflict with clear
United States court decisions uphold
ing the Federal Governments para
mount interest in them. :" The clear
est expression of national will has been

the faith of the United States as ex-
pressed in the treaties with the Re-
public of Texas and the former Mexi-
can territories acquired in the Gadsden
Purchase, but confirming the coastal
States in possession of their lands.
Further, in the same paragraph, Mr..
Stokes implies that the natural re-
sources would be better administered
and preserved under Federal than
under State jurisdiction. Since both

This was because the loyalty rules at that time

policy was adopted as direct result of the
miscarriage of the loyalty program in the Rem

Remington case has had the beneficial effect
of strengthening the Governments safeguards
against faithless public servants. That is the
only reaSsuring thing about the long -drawn-out

In Behalf of the FiIibuster'

While in Washington for the inaugu-
ration, was pleased to learn that in
your editorial, I'm Behalf of the Fill
buster" you defended the present rule
of the Senate which requires the votes
of 81 Senators to invoke cloture-or in
other words, to halt unlimited debate
in the Senate.
To my mind the most powerful argu-
ment in favor of the present rule is
the fact that our forefathers designed
a government Of checks and balances
the wiseSt type of government ever yet
devised. The President is able to check
Congress by his constitutional power of
veto. And certainly the Congress, which
is more powerful than the President.
should preserve in the Senate the same
type of check granted to the President
by the veto. And that check is the
present rule of the Senate which re-
uuireS the votes of 81 Senators to stop
unlimited debate.
Until by constitutional amendment
this country is ready to eliminate the
presidential veto, the Congress should
retain the same power by. the present
Senate rule-a power which can be
used to check a headstrong President
backed UP by servile Congress.
Preserving this system of checks and
balances is far more important to the
future good of the country than the
desire to pass any particular piece of
legislation, however good, by changing
the present wise rule of the Senate.
Furthermore, the present rule of the
Senate tends to safeguard States
RightS-one of the principal and most
important features of our constitutional
government. William E. Glow, Jr.

Their Good Faith

The United Nations Command through
General Clark's headquarters in Tokyo has now
put an official stamp on what has long been
unoff1cially taken for granted-namely, that
last years bloody riots in the prisoner
camps at Koje and elsewhere in South Korea
were inspired and directed by the leaders OF
the Communist aggression. In fact, according
to the U. NJ. the head man inspiring and direct
ing them has been none other than General
Nam II himself chief of the enemy's truce
negotiating delegation at Panmunjom.
This charge has not been conjured up out
of the thin air. It has been leveled against the
Communists on the basis of careful intelli-
gence study made up of solid documentary evi-
dence and direct testimony from Red prisoners.
Nam II, as pictured in the study, is former
Soviet officer and Russian citizen of Korean
extraction "covertly assigned to maSter-mind"
the POW riots with the help of staff of top
associates, including presumably some of the
Chinese delegates at Panmunjom. To carry out
his task, he has had specially trained agents let
themselves be captured by the U. N. in order to
infltrate the camps and establish themselves
there to organize riotous demonstrations and
violent outbreaks.
The purpose of this dirty business directed
with the aid of clandestine radio orders and
underground messages appears to have been
threefod: To try large-scale breakouts in which
thousands of escaping POWs could join forces
with Communist guerrillas in South Korea; to
bring pressure on the United Nations truce me-
gotiators, and to manufacture propaganda de-
signed to hoodwink the world and blacken the
reputation of the U. NJ particularly the United
States. These objectives have been largely frus-
trated, but there is still plenty of reason to be
on guard-despite the. stern precautionary
measures that have been taken-against new
attempts to stage riots every bit as bad as those
that have occurred already.
This speaks for itself, of course, as meas
ure of how the Geneva prisoner-of-war con-
vention is respected by the Kremlin-directed
Communist leaders in Korea, and of how little
they care for the lives of their men. Most of ALL
however, it speaks for itself as measure of
their good faith in the bogged-down truce talks
Ia good faith" that has expressed itself, from
the very start of those talks, in efforts to open
up savage second front in the POW camps.
The more one thinks about the matter, the less
possible 1t seems that an honorable peace can
be negotiated with such dishonorable people.

If our good friend the Exc Oklahoma
Real Cowboys memory had not been

recalled the antics and utteranceS of

cowboy style roped and roped-in more
Presidents and other dignitaries than
any man living or dead-I refer to my
old friend, the late beloved Will Rogers.
Will Rogers would have been the first

The CIA and Allen Dulles.

President Eisenhower has done the expected
thing in choosing Allen w. Dulles to succeed
General Walter Bedell Smith as director of the
Central Intelligence Agency. The selection
comes as no surprise, but is nevertheless graft
flying, because Mr.. Dulles has long been recog-
nized as a man uniquely well qualified for the
post-a hush-hush assignment of vital impor-
tance to the security of the Nation.
Apart from his prewaf career as successful
lawyer and his earlier diplomatic career from,
1915 to 1926 Mr.. Dulles-brother of the new
Secretary of State-has been distinguished
chiefly for his impressive work in the field of
intelligence Quietly efficient, he has established
an outstanding record as key figure in the
European operations of the Office of Strategic
Services during the Second World War, and
more recently-Since August, >1951-aS deputy
director of the CIA Certainly, there are few if
any American civilians who know as much as
he does about So-called cloak and dagger tech
niqueS or who can match his qualifications for
running the big and largely Supersecret or
ganization that is charged with gathering and
evaluating for the country all kinds of infor-
nation bearing upon the strengths, weaknesses
and intentions of potential enemies-particu-
larly the enemy behind the Iron Curtain.
The CIA is a relatively young agency. The
United States which used to feel safe behind

organization quite like it until the last war.
With the advent of that war, however, our
country awakened to the fact that it was sorely
In need of modernizing its inadequate intelli-
gence machinery. Today, although a number
of flaws remain to be eliminated, the result Is
that we have ceased being amateurs in eSpio-
mage, countereSpionage and related activities.
As General Smith has just observed, our work
in this field-which actually consists mostly of
the drudgery of painstaking analytical studies
Is as good as that of any other nation, with the
possible exception Of the Soviet Union. Further,
in his opinion, it should continue to show con-
slant improvement because of the CIA's pro-
gram aimed at developing corps of career
officers that "in few years will become the best
in the world" Considering the unprecedented
dangers of the atomic age, American security
requires nothing less than the best in that
particular.
Mr.. Dulles-whoSe nomination will be sent
to the Senate as soon as General Smith is con-
hrmed as Undersecretary of State-is admirably
equipped to press forward with the improve
ment effort. Among other things, he is good
administrator, and if the CIA has deadwood
and waste motion in it-aS some critics have
charged-there will be sound corrective action
when he becomes the director. In any event,
the Nation can be confident that its top intelli-
gence organization will be effectively run in
his experienced hands.

Promise and Performance

Sometimes it is strange the meaning
that people give to their own words.
Remember how, again and again In

campaign last fall, the independent

present their problems to the County
